Filter by:The study will evaluate the effect of Anpl-one SR Tablet on the improvement of symptoms in daily care environments using PAQ.
A phase II,randomized,double-blind,multi-doses,positive drug parallel controlled,multi-center clinical trial to evaluate initially the efficacy and safety of alprostadil liposomes for injection in the treatment of atherosclerotic occlusive disease of the lower extremities.
Adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRC) will be extracted from lipoaspirate by enzymatic digestion. 10 mL of autologous ADRC suspension injected intramuscularly, close to the site of muscle injury. All patients will receive cell therapy. This is a single arm study with no control.
The blood concentration of the protein RANKL could be predictive of the calcification of the leg arteries, which is a major complication occurring during diabetes. The objective of the DIACART study is to show that blood RANKL concentration predict the progression of calcification of the leg arteries in diabetic patients, independently of other cardiovascular risk factors.
Endovascular repair of aortic aneurysm and endovascular treatment of arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower extremities are two kinds of common surgeries in the investigators' hospital. The effects of anesthetic agents on postoperative outcome, especially cognitive function, are not clear. In this study investigators propose to measure postoperative cognitive function and other outcome of patients who are undergoing these two kinds of surgeries, and try to identify whether there is an association between different kinds of anesthetics and postoperative outcome. Investigators will also observe whether changes in plasma levels of VEGF, TGF-1, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, are associated with postoperative delirium or cognitive change.
Diabetic foot (DF) is a common, severe and costly complication of diabetes. DF is underlied by neuropathy, atherosclerosis of distal arteries and infection, which result in tissue ulcers and necrosis. Alterations in microcirculatory function and in blood rheology may concur in causing tissue damage. In recent years there has been accumulating evidence that LDL apheresis (LA) does not only reduce cholesterol but also has a series of pleiotropic effects that improve the microcirculation, increasing peripheral tissue perfusion. HADIF is a randomized, multicentric, prospective clinical study aimed at assessing the effect of LDL apheresis treatment in association with traditional therapy for ulcers, in patients with an ischemic diabetic foot ulcer (class I and II Texas Wound Classification System)and peripheral vasculopathy not susceptible to revascularization. A total of 132 patients will be enrolled. Participants will be centrally randomized to receive traditional therapy alone (TT) or in association with LA. TT includes standard medication of ulcers, antiaggregant therapy and statins. LA will be performed with HELP system, for a total of 10 sessions in 9 weeks. The primary end-point of the study is ulcer healing; secondary endpoints include improvements of peripheral oxygenation, resolution of pain, reduction of circulating inflammatory markers, cardiovascular events during one year's follow-up. This clinical Study has been approved by local EC on 25 may 2011 (Study number 1953). TO BE NOTED: since diabetic patients in our "Diabetic-Foot UNIT" often presented foot ulcers more severe than class II Texas, a formal amendment has been submitted to EC for recruiting patients with diabetic foot ulcer of class III Texas. The amendment was already approved on 5 may 2012.
Recently, Nanto et al. reported that cilostazol effectively prevented restenosis in a retrospective analysis of 121 femoropopliteal artery lesions in percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) patients who had undergone PTA. In a prospective 3-year follow-up study in 127 patients with similar diseases, the patency rate was significantly higher in the cilostazol group than in the ticlopidine group. It was also found that cilostazol markedly inhibited restenosis during the first 1-year period following endovascular therapy when restenosis is most frequently observed. In addition, there have been sporadic reports that cilostazol was effective in preventing post-stenting restenosis in the coronary artery area. Based on these results, this multicenter study is going to be conducted to prospectively evaluate the usefulness of cilostazol in lower limb endovascular therapy.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether autologous bone marrow derived cells and isolated CD133+ fraction are effective in the treatment limb ischemia
The goal of this study is to evaluate the possible preoperative predictive value of altered heart rate variability (HRV) and baroreflex sensitivity in different sleep stages for postoperative adverse cardiac events (i.e. arrhythmia or myocardial ischemia needing hospitalization or medication, myocardial ischemia assessed by enzyme release, myocardial infarction, sudden cardiac death, stroke) in arteriosclerosis obliterans patients.
