Filter by:The objective of the Global Paradise® System US Post Approval Study (US GPS) is to evaluate the real-world use of the Paradise Ultrasound Renal Denervation System indicated for patients who are unable to lower their blood pressure with lifestyle changes and medication. This system is comprised of a catheter, cable, balloon, and generator and has received FDA approval in the United States. Information collected in this study will be analyzed to better understand the long-term safety and effectiveness of treatment with the Paradise System for patients with high blood pressure.
Cardiovascular disease has become the leading cause of death early after liver transplantation (LT). The aging LT population is accompanied with the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, diabetes, and hyperlipidemia. Furthermore, cirrhosis has been known to cause alterations in the systemic haemodynamic system and cardiac muscle dysfunction, systolic and/or diastolic, known as Cirrhotic cardiomyopathy (CCM). Hence, transthoracic echocardiography is required in all LT candidates for preprocedural evaluation and risk stratification. However, traditional echocardiographic indices of cardiac function have low sensitivity. It is unclear whether comprehensive echocardiographic multiparameters, including speckle tracking echocardiograph (STE) and tissue doppler imaging (TDI) can help improve preoperative risk stratification. Therefore, we sought to analyze the ability of clinical and comprehensive echocardiography variables to predict intraoperative and perioperative cardiac events and cardiac mortality in our LT patient experience up to early post-liver transplant.
This work aims to evaluate the effects of the association of green propolis extract with royal jelly on inflammation and oxidative stress in participants with chronic kidney diseases (CKD) and Systemic arterial hypertension (SAH), in a longitudinal, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial that will be carried out for 2 months.
The goal of this clinical trial is to conduct a dietary intervention targeting HIV-specific gut microbiota alterations for primary ASCVD prevention and evaluate its effectiveness in preventing borderline ASCVD risk among HIV-infected patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Explore the pivotal role of the gut-heart axis in the causal relationship between HIV infection and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. - Develop a targeted dietary intervention focusing on gut microbiota to prevent the borderline risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in HIV-infected patients. - Evaluate the effectiveness of the gut microbiota-targeted dietary intervention in reducing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk among HIV-infected patients, altering gut microbiota composition, improving risk factors of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and alleviating prodromal symptoms associated with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Participants in the intervention group will receive the gut microbiota-targeted dietary intervention thrice weekly for 3 months, accompanied by bi-weekly health education videos for the same duration. Meanwhile, the control group will continue routine follow-up and health education practices. The intervention will span three months, followed by a three-month follow-up period. Data collection will occur at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months.
Perioperative myocardial injury/infarction (PMI) and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) are common causes of morbidity and mortality in patients at increased cardiovascular risk undergoing non-cardiac surgery. However, research in recent years has yielded limited preventive and therapeutic measures for PMI/MACE. Recent studies in patients with chronic and acute coronary artery disease have shown that colchicine administration can reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. These encouraging results in non-surgical patients ask for a similar investigation in patients undergoing major non-cardiac surgery. The aim of the proposed study is to investigate the effects of perioperative colchicine administration on the incidence of PMI/MACE.
The purpose of this study is collect subject vitals with a blood pressure cuff, electrocardiogram (ECG), and photoplethysmogram (PPG). This data can then be used to develop a reliable, accurate, noninvasive, and continuous blood pressure monitoring device.
This is a multicenter, randomized, single-blind pivotal study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the MagicTouchTM Drug coated balloon in treatment of small vessels in patients with coronary artery disease. The objective is to establish the safety and efficacy of the Magic TouchTM Drug coated balloon in treatment of small vessels (≤2.75 mm). A total of 1605 subjects will be enrolled in a maximum of 50 study sites located in North America. Additional sites located in Europe and South America may also participate in the study, with non-US sites contributing a maximum of ~50% of enrollees.
Study CTQJ230A12303 is a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled, Phase IIIb study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of pelacarsen (TQJ230) 80 mg s.c. QM compared with placebo s.c. QM in US Black/African American and Hispanic participants with established ASCVD and elevated levels of Lp(a) who are treated for cardiovascular (CV) risk factors according to local practice/guidelines for the reduction of cardiovascular risk.
This is a Phase IV multicentre adaptive single-blinded randomized clinical trial if preemptively genotyping populations at risk of cardiovascular disease susceptible of receiving high or moderate doses of statin therapy is efficacious, cost-efficacious, and feasible within the Spanish National Health System when compared to the current standard of care. This trial is nested within the iPHARMGx master protocol
The purpose of this study is to measure the effectiveness of inclisiran compared to usual care in an inclusive study population (women, racial/ethnic minorities, and rural dwelling participants) which has historically been more likely to receive suboptimal lipid management, as a potential solution to improve care gaps. The study duration will be up to 360 days for participants randomized to the inclisiran with usual care arm and up to 720 days for participants initially randomized to the usual care arm.
