Filter by:In summary, the purpose of the study is to evaluate whether the Wirecath device can be used as a standard pressure wire in a safe and efficient way.
Flaxseed and olive oil consumption have beneficial effects on cardiovascular risk factors. Nonetheless the effects of their simultaneous consumption have not yet been studied.The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of a healthy diet containing flaxseed and olive oil compared with healthy dietary advice on cardiovascular disease risk markers in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), in improving flow-mediated dilation, plasma lipid profile and fatty acids composition of red blood cells.
The study aim is to compare the effects produced by two different exercise training modalities on atrial function evaluated by speckle-tracking echocardiography on hypertensive patients with coronary artery disease. 50 males patients will be randomized to interval training or combined training the latter including both aerobic and resistance exercises. The training period will last 12 weeks. The protocol will provide two different assessment of atrial function: -acute: after a single session of exercise; - 12 weeks: at the end of exercise training protocols.
Device: EluNIR Ridaforolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System - (hereafter referred to as EluNIR) 2.25 mm diameter (8 mm, 12 mm, 15 mm, 17 mm, 20 mm, 24 mm, 28 mm and 33 mm length) Objectives: To further assess the safety and efficacy of the small diameter (2.25 mm) Ridaforolimus Eluting Stent - EluNIR. Subject Population: Subjects who underwent PCI for angina (stable or unstable), silent ischemia (in absence of symptoms a visually estimated target lesion diameter stenosis of ≥70%, a positive non-invasive stress test, or FFR ≤0.80 must be present), NSTEMI, and recent STEMI (>24 hours from initial presentation and stable) with attempted implantation of a 2.25 mm diameter EluNIR stent. Trial Design and Methods: This is a prospective, multi-center, single-arm, open-label clinical trial. Clinical follow-up for all patients will be performed at 30 days 6 months, and 1 year after the procedure.
The presence of chronic blockage of coronary arteries, which we may accept as the terminal point of atherosclerotic coronary artery disease, is closely associated with a poor prognosis. The Discovery of markers that may distinguish patients with a high risk of chronic total occlusion development among patients monitored with the diagnosis of stable coronary artery disease may be important for being able to reduce the increased mortality and morbidity rates. Oxidative stress status may be one of the markers that play a role in and/or show the development of chronic total occlusion. It was reported that it has a role in the progression, erosion, and instability of atherosclerotic plaques in coronary arteries. To the best of our knowledge, the relationship between chronic total occlusion development and oxidative stress status in stable coronary artery disease has not been studied. This study investigated the relationships in the oxidative stress status evaluated over TAS, TOS, OSI, Thiol/Disulfide Homeostasis, and antioxidative vitamin levels and possible differences in patients with noncritical coronary artery disease and those with chronic total occlusion.
The treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions continue to remain challenges. Due to the complexity of the anatomical structure and the limitations of imaging, there are poor attachment and under-expansion of the stent at the branch ostium, which causes in-stent thrombosis and restenosis. The delayed re-endothelialization arise from multi-layer stents. The one-stent strategy causes the displacement of the plaques and ridges of the branch ostium, and thus insufficient blood flow to the branches. The "L-sandwich" strategy, stents were implanted in the main vessel(MV) and the shaft of side branch(SB) respectively, then a drug-coated balloon(DCB) was applied to the ostium of the SB, to improve the tedious operation process in true bifurcation lesions and reduce postoperative complications. The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the "sandwich" strategy.
Registry to describe the impact in terms of effectiveness and safety of the combination treatment of rivaroxaban 2.5 mg twice daily with aspirin on clinical outcomes and practices in a real-life Dutch patient population that are at high risk of ischemic events.
It is widely accepted that coronary artery disease (CAD) is related to a high mortality. It is predicted that an increase of approximately 21.3 million cardiovascular events and 7.7 million cardiovascular deaths over 2010 to 2030 in China.1 Male sex, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, obesity and smoking are all traditionally considered as risk factors for CAD. In recent decades, tremendous progress toward the prevention and treatment of traditional cardiovascular risk factors have helped decrease the morbidity and mortality from CAD, but the condition remains a major public health challenge worldwide. Looking into the other potential risk factors (OSA) for CAD, it may help to develop additional preventative strategies and further reduce the incidence and mortality of CAD.
Insight Lifetech Intravascular Ultrasound Diagnostic System (referred to as Insight Lifetech IVUS system below),is a new high-speed and high-resolution device for clearly defining vessel architecture and plaque morphology, providing quantitative and qualitative assessment of coronary arteries. Besides, IVUS has already an established role in guidance and optimization of percutaneous coronary intervention. This study will compare the differences, if any, between the intravascular ultrasound(IVUS) results measured by the two different IVUS diagnostic systems.
This study examines the formation mechanism and patient-related factors of silent cerebral infarcts, whose importance has become increasingly recognized in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.
