NCT ID: NCT05775354 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Reviving Early Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Disease in the Utrecht Health Project

RED-LRGP
Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized trial is to compare the diagnostic yield of a screen-like early diagnosis strategy to usual primary care to detect coronary artery disease (CAD), atrial fibrillation (AF), heart failure (HF), and/or valvular heart disease (VHD) in community people aged 50-80 years who participate in the Utrecht Health Project. The diagnosis strategy consists of a questionnaire with questions related to symptoms suggestive of CAD, AF or HF, a focused physical examination, laboratory testing, electrocardiography, and echocardiography.

NCT ID: NCT05722145 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Coronary Artery Disease

Global Pretest Probability Study of Coronary Artery Disease

GPS-CAD
Start date: November 25, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The use of pre-test probability (PTP) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores is guideline-recommended in the evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) and stable chest pain. The utility of these scores is population dependent. Previous studies have predominantly been limited to Western populations, despite Asia forming 60% of the global population. However, Asian populations have differing coronary artery phenotypes and may therefore have different PTPs with varying implications for risk stratification. Known difference in CAC implications support a global approach. Hence, this study aims to evaluate a contemporary PTP in diverse real-world Asian, Western and other cohorts and to evaluate the incremental value of CAC in predicting CAD and events. Primarily, the study will compare population specific PTPs and CAC for prediction of coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) CAD. This could be compared with existing guideline-recommended PTPs alone or with consideration of risk factors or CAC. The study will also evaluate the accuracy of the prediction of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) using PTP models, risk factors and/or CAC. Lastly, the study will investigate the accuracy of zero CAC and other minimal risk tools to de-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) in various populations. The study will investigate multiple international cohorts of patients referred for noninvasive testing using coronary CTA or other non-invasive imaging modalities. Locally-calibrated PTP models in consideration of risk factors or CAC will be separately tailored to each different cohort, and will be evaluated.

NCT ID: NCT05677386 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for Cardiovascular Diseases

The DANE-HEART Trial - Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography for Primary Prevention

Start date: March 20, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized controlled clinical trial in asymptomatic individuals with risk factors for cardiovascular disease is to investigate whether a preventive treatment strategy guided by computed tomography coronary angiography (CTCA) provides a patient-centered approach, which ensures optimal protection against serious cardiovascular disease. The main question it aims to answer is: Does preventive treatment guided by CTCA reduce the risk of heart attacks or cardiovascular death as compared to using conventional cardiovascular risk scores. Participants will be randomized to preventive medical therapy and/or invasive intervention guided by either CTCA (intervention group) or Systematic COronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE) 2 model for cardiovascular risk prediction (control group).

NCT ID: NCT05645770 Enrolling by invitation - Clinical trials for CAD, Prospective Memory

Prospective Memory and Cardiac Activity in Coronary Artery Disease

Start date: December 9, 2022
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Previous studies demonstrated an association between cognitive deficit and coronary artery disease (CAD; Abete et al., 2014; Deckers et al., 2017) even after controlling for the effects of age and socioeconomic status (Singh-Manoux et al., 2003). A selective, non-amnestic cognitive impairment profile has also been observed in this patient group (Roberts et al., 2010), with executive function as the most vulnerable cognitive domain (Rostamian et al., 2015). Prospective memory and CAD Prospective memory (PM) is another facet of executive function that concerns the realization of an intended action (Kvavilashvili, 1998). In addition to the support from memory system, PM strongly relies on attentional and executive control (Kliegel et al., 2011). For example, the two-stage cue-focused view of PM retrieval (McDaniel et al., 2004) posited the importance of "noticing" an action cue before the associated memory search can be initiated. PM is a clinically relevant psychological construct as the failure has been related to quality of life (Doyle et al., 2012), activities of daily living (Woods et al., 2008) and medication adherence (Zogg et al., 2012). However, little is known about PM function in CAD. Only Habota et al. (2015) reported significant PM deficit in a small group of chronic heart failure patients (N = 19) as compared to healthy controls (N = 24). Therefore, the first aim of the present study is to examine PM performance in people with CAD as compared to their healthy controls. Prospective memory and cardiac function The association between the brain and the heart has long been recognized (Samuels, 2007). However, the mechanism of cognitive impairment in CAD has not been clearly understood. Researchers proposed several contributing pathological routes including increased platelet activity, thrombo-embolic mechanisms or cardiac output reduction (Abete et al., 2014). The neurovisceral integration model (Smith et al., 2017) proposed a hierarchy of vagal control from intra-cardiac and cardiovascular reactions to representation of multimodal prior expectations that involve the cerebral executive control network. Accumulating evidence supported this notion by demonstrating the link between autonomic nervous system (ANS) and behavioral performance, such as the association between heart rate variability (HRV) and cognitive functions (Forte et al., 2019) and its moderating effect of resting pre-ejection time (PEP; Giuliano et al., 2017). Few studies investigated the relationship between autonomic responses and PM. Kliegel et al. (2007) and Rothen et al. (2014) verified that there was an association between increased skin conductance responses (SCRs) and the noticing of PM cues in young adults. More recently, Umeda et al. (2016) found that PM performance was associated with an increase in heart rate upon target presentation and with better interoceptive accuracy in college students. They hypothesized that PM was regulated by cardiac afferent signals that facilitate saliency detection and intention retrieval, which was also mediated by interoceptive accuracy. These preliminary findings suggest close relationship between PM and autonomic functions and provide another aspect of the evidence on the brain-heart connection. However, the methodology adopted in these studies suffered from crude, indirect measures of ANS activity. It is also unclear if the autonomic nervous function compromised by CAD (Montano et al., 2009) would play a role in PM deficit. Hence, the second aim of the present study is to investigate the relationship between PM and cardiac function as measured by HF-HRV (the parasympathetic component) and PEP (the sympathetic component).

NCT ID: NCT05166447 Enrolling by invitation - Obesity Clinical Trials

Twenty-year Follow-up of the Inter99 Cohort

Start date: September 13, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Being born small increases your risk of developing Type 2 diabetes (T2D) with age. Furthermore, data even suggest that some of the diseases ("complications") in the eyes, kidneys, nerves, liver, blood vessels and heart often seen in T2D patients may not only be due to high blood sugar levels, but rather they to some extent are due to reduced growth in your mother´s womb. The Inter99 cohort included 6784 Danish citizens aged 30 to 60 years when established 20 years ago. Data from the Inter99 cohort showed a strong role of low birth weight (LBW) on T2D risk. The aim is now to reexamine risk of T2D and complications in all the alive 6004 elderly Inter99 participants. Importantly, today there are available techniques to perform detailed examinations for even the earliest signs of complications in both subjects with and without diabetes, and the results of this study will altogether provide important new insights into both the origin and classification of T2D and associated complications. It is hypothesized that being born with lower birth weights increases the adult risk of T2D and heart disease and associated complications in the large and smaller blood vessels.
