Filter by:Danlou tablets are Chinese patent medicine which has been approved in China for the treatment of ischemic heart disease, but the evidence supporting its efficacy on cardiac remodeling remains unclear. This pilot study was designed to determine whether Danlou tablets reduced adverse left ventricular (LV) remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI). Patients following acute MI were enrolled and randomly allocated to Danlou tablets (4.5 g q.d. for 90 days) or placebo, superimposed on standard medications for the treatment of MI. Major end points were changes in LV volumes and ejection fractions as evaluated by serial echocardiography in addition to clinical outcomes were also determined.
A multicentric controlled phase I / IIb study evaluating the safety and the efficacy of in vitro expanded peripheral blood CD34+ stem cells output by the StemXpand® Automated Process, and injected in patients with an acute myocardial infarction and a LVEF remaining below 50% versus standard of care.
The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of the umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells for patients with ischemic heart diseases.
Aims: - evaluate the hydric status through bioimpedance spectroscopy in consecutive acute myocardial infarction patients referred for primary PCI; - assessment of renal artery stenosis incidence through renal angiography in consecutive STEMI patients; - fully characterize the complex hydration, metabolic and endothelial profile of these patients in the attempt to define the role played by dehydration in the complex dynamics of acute myocardial infarction.
The aim of this study is to investigate whether or not short-term expose to air pollution is associated with in-hospital outcomes, such as mortality and morbidity.
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential novel risk factors for acute myocardial infarction. Predictors of poor outcomes will be also evaluated.
The current prospective, randomized, controlled MonAMI trial aims to systematically examine the effects of morphine on the platelet inhibitory effects of the orally administered platelet inhibitor ticagrelor in patients with acute myocardial infarction. In addition, the potential positive or negative effects of MCP in combination with morphine on platelet inhibition will be studied.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of this CR program on the improvement of myocardial function using the three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3D-STE) in AMI patients.
Recent studies suggest important gender differences in the pathophysiology and prognosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This is the first prospective controlled study to assess gender differences in the mechanism of plaque rupture/erosion and thrombus formation in patients presenting with STEMI treated with primary angioplasty. Gender-related mechanisms of plaque rupture or erosion will be investigated using a combination of Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA), high resolution Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) of the culprit vessel and histopathology analyses of thrombus aspirates of the infarct related lesion, performed by independent core laboratories, blinded to group (male or female) and clinical variables. In OCTAVIA; enrollment in a 1:1 ratio according to gender group will be ensured by a computer-assisted matching algorithm for gender and age (< 50, 51-70, and > 70 years). Matching has the purpose to enable enrollment of an even number of male and female patients in balanced age groups. This type of dynamic algorithm is appropriate when the composition of the referral population is not known in advance. The sample size for the OCTAVIA study was calculated on the basis of per patient stent strut coverage (a continuous variable with right skewed distribution) with mean of 97.0% and standard deviation of 4.0% in men, versus mean of 95.0% and standard deviation of 4.0% in women, following XIENCE PRIME™ Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System implantation. Thus, aiming for a 5% 2-tailed superiority alpha, an 80% power, and assuming a 1:1 enrollment according to gender, a total of 64 patients per group should be enrolled. Anticipating a 10% dropout rate due to patients lost to follow-up and inadequate imaging (included major side branch sections), the total enrollment is set at 70 patients per group (total population of 140 subjects).
The purpose of this study is To assess percutaneous coronary intervention 's effect on short- and long- term outcomes, and complication incidence in resuscitated victims of cardiac arrest after acute myocardial infarction
