Filter by:MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) can be a potential therapeutic target of patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Recent evidence suggests the role of miR-210 and oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of PAD and its association with mitochondrial function, oxidative metabolism, walking distances and quality of life. The protocol evaluates the mechanisms which miR-210 regulates oxidative stress and provides evidence of potential therapeutic strategies.
Introduction: Anaemia due to iron and vitamin deficiency among patients with critical limb ischemia is high (>50%). The prevalence of a higher rate of anaemia extends into the three months prior to revascularization surgery, it is associated with longer hospital stays and more transfusions in addition to being a factor in poor prognoses. Study and treatment of anaemia within the perioperative period could improve the surgical outcomes, including the recovery and the quality of patients' lives. There are several types of intravenous iron preparations with different administration protocols, but there is not a consensus on the timing and type of the appropriate iron therapy. To the best of our knowledge, there is no data on the performance of intravenous iron in the management of preoperative anaemia in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) in vascular surgery. Methods and analysis: The IRONPAD Study is a phase IV randomised controlled trial with two branches of treatment on the efficacy of intravenous iron therapy for the optimisation of blood use and prognosis in the perioperative period of patients with anaemia undergoing revascularisation for chronic lower limb ischemia. The study randomises 240 patients with anaemia to: treat with a single intravenous dose of ferric carboxymaltose (1000 mg) or no treatment vs oral iron supplements (if severe anaemia) a minimum of two days prior to lower limb revascularisation surgery. The primary outcome is to reduce the incidence of transfusion from randomisation up to 30+7 days after the main surgery. The secondary outcomes will be included to establish the optimal preoperative moment of increased intravenous iron administration, to raise haemoglobin levels; to study the evolution of haemoglobin from inclusion to 30+7 days after surgery; and to determine the impact of anaemia and its treatment on the length of hospital stay, morbidity and mortality, as well as the quality of life in this period.
This is a randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the role of screening for and intervening on patients with high on treatment platelet reactivity undergoing lower extremity arterial endovascular interventions.
The LimFlow System is intended for endovascular, minimally invasive procedures in patients who have a clinical diagnosis of chronic limb-threatening ischemia and who have been determined to have no surgical or endovascular treatment option (i.e., "no option").
This trial randomises patients with occlusive peripheral arterial disease, to be managed either by providing a 12-week structured lifestyle modification programme, or standard healthcare.
This study aims at assessing additional performance characteristics of the SoundBite™ Crossing System with regards to the luminal passage of complex Chronic Total Occlusions (CTO) by evaluating clinically relevant efficacy, safety, cost benefit and treatment pathway endpoints.
This proposed study will be conducted to support real-world-evidence on the extent of best medical treatment for secondary prevention of patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) for prevention of worsening limb symptoms or of major adverse cardiovascular events. The overall objective of this study is to gain a better understanding of patient characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes in PAOD patients. For this purpose the investigators will analyze a patient population hospitalized either with intermittent claudication (IC) or chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) while taking prior PAOD-related diagnoses in the outpatient setting into account. In detail, we study differentials according to age, calendar time, sex, disease severity and hospital procedure. Data were extracted from available German health insurance claims.
The purpose of this study is to test if a patient can be directly connected to a quality assurance (QA) database, traditionally known as a registry. Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) data will be entered into the database directly from a patient's mobile phone from their index procedure for 12 months. The investigators hope this study to be a "proof of concept" for such a distributed registry and evaluate 1) consistency of data acquisition, 2) engagement of patients, 3) overall value of patient-reported outcomes to enhance long term follow up.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of interrupting prolong sedentary behavior with interval exercise on postprandial metabolism following a high fat glucose tolerance test.
