View clinical trials related to Cardiomyopathy, Dilated.
Filter by:The goal of this protocol is to obtain information from individuals with cardiomyopathy and from their families in order to elucidate the molecular genetics of this disorder. This will provide the basis for future genetic counseling as well as contribute to elucidating the biology of normal and abnormal cardiac function.
The investigators would evaluate the effects of the novel method, HTEA on cardiac function in the heart failure patients secondary to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy and post-myocardial infarction.
This is a joint project by Heidelberg University and Greifswald University. Our objective is to establish an unique national multi-center registry and biobank of well phenotyped patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathies (CMP) including in depth clinical, molecular and omics-based phenotyping to serve as: 1. central hub for clinical outcome studies. 2. joint resource for diagnostic and therapeutic trials. 3. common biomaterial bank. 4. resource for detailed molecular analyses on patients' biomaterials and patient specific model systems.
Patients with Ischaemic and Dilated Cardiomyopathy, face an increased risk for Arrhythmic Sudden Cardiac Death. The purpose of this study is to estimate the performance of Modern Non-Invasive Indices and the performance of Programmed Ventricular Stimulation in Sudden Cardiac Death Prediction.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether electrocardiogram, echocardiography, cardiac MRI, sera biomarkers can improve early detection of myocardial involvement and clinical outcome.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, the feasibility and the efficacy of transendocardial injection of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in patients with dilated idiopathic cardiomyopathy.
The purpose of this study is to determine if resveratrol can improve heart function and quality of life. Although, population studies have revealed that a mild to moderate intake of red wine reduces cardiovascular disease risk in humans, clinical studies that evaluate the potential heart benefits of resveratrol in patients with non-ischemic cardiomyopathy have not been previously reported. Accordingly, this research is being done because it will fill this deficiency in the information available in the literature and establish the clinical benefits of resveratrol in patients with this type of heart disease.
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures for rare diseases. The CoRDS team works with patient advocacy groups, individuals and researchers to help in the advancement of research in over 7,000 rare diseases. The registry is free for patients to enroll and researchers to access. Visit sanfordresearch.org/CoRDS to enroll.
The investigators will evaluate the determinants of cerebral impairment in patients with non-ischemic heart failure compared to controls, and its relation to cognitive function. They hypothesize that patients with heart failure have impaired brain perfusion and hemodynamic factors are associated with cognitive dysfunction.
This study will evaluate the relationship of markers of cardiac activation and their determinants. The hypothesis is that these markers will be interrelated.
