Filter by:The main goal of the study is to provide a unique multidimensional picture of the health of the population with simultaneous optimal standards of sampling, processing and storing of data and biomaterial that will allow discovering novel mechanisms in the development and progression of common civilization diseases. In the effect it will improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
The purpose of this study is reduce episodes of intradialytic hypotension, low blood pressure during a hemodialysis session, in patients with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Recruitment will take place on the clinic level rather than the patient level.
This pilot study aims to demonstrate that emotional regulation (ER) is a valuable supplement to a documented and effective group-based lifestyle intervention on cardiovascular disease risk reduction maintenance in a non-clinical population by assessing changes in this primary outcome: Mediterranean diet adherence and these secondary outcomes: average daily steps, METS per week, BMI, blood pressure, physical activity, LDL, HDL, Triglycerides, Hemoglobin A1c, Western Diet Score, ER skills, Healthy Heart Score and eating behavior. This study will include women aged 35-75 and the group intervention will be based on the gold standard Diabetes Prevention Study, integrating the Mediterranean Diet as well as emotional regulation skills based on dialectical behavior therapy. The core intervention will last 3 months with 2 booster sessions will be conducted over 1 month.
This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between the point of care blood analysis obtained from skin puncture blood and conventional blood analysis obtained from venous and arterial blood.
Sleep apnea is a common and serious health problem in the Polish population. According to epidemiological data problem concerns about 7% of the adult population. The most common sleep disorder is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The consequence of episodes of airway obstruction and sleep fragmentation is an inefficient sleep, pathological daytime sleepiness, falling asleep involuntarily, awakening with feelings of shortness of breath or throttling. The direct consequences of sleep apnea are hypoxia, increased heart rate and increased blood pressure. Frequent complications of OSA are hypertension, stroke, cardiac arrhythmia, coronary artery disease and pulmonary hypertension. An additional problem in patients with sleep apnea is an increased incidence of bruxism. Bruxism is a common problem; reports of prevalence range from 8-31% in the general population. The most common symptoms of bruxism include: hypersensitive teeth, tooth wear, damage to dental restorations (e.g. crowns and fillings), damage to periodontal and oral mucosa, masticatory muscle pain and headaches. The etiology of bruxism is multifactorial and not fully understood. It can be caused by biologic, psychologic and exogenous factors. Arousals during the apnea episodes are considered to be a major cause of sleep bruxism in OSA patients. The relationship between OSA and sleep bruxism is still not clearly defined. Further research is needed to help explain the relationship between these two phenomena, which will enable further therapy in patients with coexisting OSA and sleep bruxism (SB).
The Day-Care Unit for Patients With Refractory Heart Failure (DayCare-HF) is an observational study on selected patients with advanced refractory heart failure. The purpose of the study was to examine the comprehensive management of HF in the day-care unit in terms of the safety and its impact on the rehospitalization and mortality rates in patients with advanced refractory HF.
Giving preoperative loading dose of 60mg of trimetazidine can safely and effectively reduce the PCI-related myocardial damage for the patients undergoing selective PCI. but the effect of Trimetazidine during the primary PCI on cardiac function in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction is not sure. this study aim to study the effect of Trimetazidine during the primary PCI on cardiac function in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
The 'no-reflow' phenomenon after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is a strong predictor of both short- and long-term mortality. Faster antiplatelet activity and increased levels of adenosine provide a theoretical basis for ticagrelor to effectively prevent no-reflow after PCI. We planned to evaluate the effects of ticagrelor on myocardial no-reflow after PCI for STEMI.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the incidence of late incomplete stent apposition (ISA) and un-coverage by optical coherence tomography (OCT) following everolimus-eluting stent (EES) with bioabsorbable polymer (SYNERGY™, Boston Scientific,Nattick, MA, USA) versus zotarolimus-eluting stent (ZES) with permanent polymer(Resolute Onyx™, Medtronic, Santa Rosa, CA, USA) implantation in patients with AMI at 12 months.
The purpose of this study is to see if some people with postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) have higher levels of immune proteins (autoantibodies) directed against receptors of the autonomic nervous system, and if these autoantibodies make a difference in their POTS symptoms. The investigators also want to see if the levels of these autoantibodies stay the same over time.
