Filter by:The association of novel inflammatory biomarkers with cardiovascular diseases is still obscure. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship of various inflammatory biomarkers with the existence as well as the extent of heart failure (HF) and coronary artery disease (CAD), suggesting a link between inflammation and cardiovascular diseases and all-cause 30- and -90 day of hospital readmission. Methods: We enrolled a total of 120 patients with HF, asymptomatic CAD and 60 healthy controls (HC) without cardiovascular diseases.
Prospective (analysis of retrospective data), multi-center, observational, single-arm study. This structure was selected as the "worst case" due to the fact that it represents real life usage of invasive FFR measurement is performed mostly in "gray zone" cases, which are that their severity cannot be determined intuitively and based on the physician eyeball. By using real-world historical data of invasive FFR, the analysis of the obtained data can ensure that the study results are expected to include invasive FFR results that are in the grey zone, when invasive FFR is used in real life and represent the real expected use of the product. Furthermore, the analysis of the data obtained in the studies with these similar devices measuring FFR obtained from angiograms was actually performed in a retrospective manner. That is, although the angiographic images and pressure wire recordings were obtained in real-time, due to the need to mark the vessel in real-time and obtain specific projections during the procedure without which the FFR cannot be calculated, the primary endpoint (sensitivity and specificity) and accuracy were determined in all studies by a post-hoc review by a similar independent QCA core laboratory. The invasive FFR data, as well as the software generated FFR data were reviewed post-hoc by a core laboratory or even at the company.
Patients aged 18-89 with stable CAD and comorbidities receiving optimal medical treatment requiring PCI with iodinated contrast media. The aim of the study is to assess the prevalence of contrast-induced AKI in 2012-2013 and 2017 cohorts and to evaluate the potential risk factors of CI-AKI to better guide the prevention in patients of higher risk.
In patients with chronic stable coronary artery disease (CAD), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) targets hemodynamically significant coronary lesions, i.e., those thought to cause inducible ischemia. The hemodynamic severity of a coronary stenosis increases with its tightness and with the myocardial mass of viable myocardium downstream of the stenosis. Compared to the traditional anatomic angiographic approach, assessment of functional relevance by fractional flow reserve (FFR) during coronary angiography has been suggested to improve patient outcomes. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is based on determination of the coronary perfusion pressure downstream of a stenosis during pharmacologic hyperemia. However, FFR relies on oversimplified physiologic concepts, which limits its usefulness in defining a true ischemic threshold. Furthermore, visual angiographic assessment continues to dominate the treatment decisions for intermediate coronary lesions. Conversely, the intracoronary ECG (icECG) provides an inexpensive, sensitive and direct measure of myocardial ischemia. The icECG is easily acquired by attaching a reusable alligator clamp to a conventional angioplasty guidewire (at one tenth the price of a pressure sensor guidewire). The coronary guide wire positioned downstream of a coronary stenosis then acts as the exploring electrode. During pharmacologic stress, the icECG can provide direct evidence for regional myocardial ischemia to define the ischemic threshold in different types of coronary artery disease.
This study was performed to investigate the anatomical attributes that determine myocardial territory of diagonal branches and to develop a prediction model for clinically relevant branches using myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) and coronary CT angiography (CCTA).
ORBITA-2 is a double blinded randomised placebo-controlled trial comparing the effects of coronary angioplasty versus placebo procedure on symptoms of stable angina without background anti-anginal therapy. Follow-up will be at 12 weeks.
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of Edoxaban with the combination of edoxaban and antiplatelet in patients with stable CAD (coronary artery stenosis ≥50% on medical treatment or revascularized stable CAD [≥ 12 months for acute coronary syndrome and ≥ 6 months after stable CAD]) and high-risk atrial fibrillation (CHA2DS2-VASc score ≥2).
The current study evaluated prognostic implication of comprehensive physiologic assessment using fractional flow reserve, coronary flow reserve (CFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR).
Collection of coronary images with a hybrid IVUS OCT system.
Prospective, multi-center observational study to be conducted in up to 30 French interventional cardiology centers. The purpose of this observational study is to capture, in French Centers, clinical data of the BioMatrix Flex™ and BioMatrix NeoFlex™ Drug Eluting Coronary Stents System (Biolimus A9, BA9™-) in normal practice, in patients treated with 6-month DAPT, and to compare the outcomes to those of previous e-biomatrix registries with longer DAPT durations. The patients will be followed up for 2 years for data collection.
