Noninvasive pressure-strain loop (PSL) derived myocardial work (MW) are more sensitive than conventional echocardiographic parameters in quantitative assessment of early myocardial dysfunction. The aim of this study was to assess left ventricular (LV) myocardial function in symptomatic patients with coronary artery disease using the promising method. Methods: Transthoracic echocardiography was performed on patients with angina or equivalent symptoms before coronary angiography. Images were stored and imported into the software for further offline analysis of PSL-based MW. MW analysis were carried out on each patient for global and regional myocardial function assessment.
This multicenter study involved 5 hospitals (Changhai Hospital; Yueyang Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; Gongli Hospital; Putuo Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; No. 904 Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistics Support Force Wuxi). The study enrolled 5000 consecutive patients without known CAD who underwent first coronary angiography for stable chest pain and carotid ultrasound was performed during hospitalization from January 2017 through December 2018.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients requiring dialysis. There are limited data on clinical characteristics, treatment strategies and outcomes in this special patient population in China. As a nationwide, observational, multicenter cohort study, this study consecutively included ESRD patients on dialysis with significant CAD at 30 tertiary care centers in 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021. Patient data collected included demographics, comorbidities, cardiac history, cardiac function, location and severity of CAD, procedural information, medications, and clinical events.
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction nowadays affects about half of all patients with heart failure. In the general population, the prevalence of this subclass of heart failure (HFpEF, ed.) increases as the age of patients increases, especially in those over 65 years of age, and it has a significant gender. The study is to investigate the molecular pathways, predominantly protein patterns, involved in cardiac remodeling peculiar to heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) by comparing them with remodeling pathways and protein pattern alterations in patients with HFrEF. In addition, the study aims to identify molecular alterations that would allow early identification of the development of PH-HFpEF and PH-HFrEF, affecting the female gender more
In this study, a multicentre, double-blind, randomized controlled study based on cognitive training was conducted in patients with coronary heart disease and cognitive impairment but without dementia, to evaluate the effectiveness of computer-based digital therapy in improving the cognitive function of such patients.
The Super Rehab: Can we Achieve Coronary Artery Disease Regression? (a feasibility study) proposes to test the use of a novel lifestyle intervention (Super Rehab), in addition to standard care, for patients with both coronary artery disease and metabolic syndrome. This is a feasibility study that will test study processes, enable optimisation of the intervention and provide data for power calculations to enable design of pivotal trials of the clinical effectiveness of Super Rehab.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate respiratory parameters and functional capacity in coronary artery patients.
Surgical coronary bypass surgery (CABG) has been demonstrated to confer significant survival benefit over medical therapies patients with LMCA in earlier clinical trials1,2,3 and therefore was the revascularization modality of choice for a long time. Recently, several randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses have shown percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to be non-inferior to CABG in the treatment of LMCA disease4,5,6,7,8. PCI is now considered to be an appropriate alternative to CABG for LMCA disease in patients with suitable anatomy9,10. Over recent decades, LMCA PCI has been performed in patients with increasing anatomical complexity and higher risk profiles (e.g. elderly, heart failure, renal failure etc). 11,12. In recent years, remarkable advancement in interventional techniques and technologies such as 2nd/3rd generation DES and potent antiplatelet therapy have contributed to the improvement of PCI success rates and reduction in complications and adverse events. Knowledge related to long term temporal variation of clinical and procedural characteristics and outcomes in patients with LMCA disease treated with PCI will therefore be important to inform and define future treatment strategies. This proposal aims to evaluate time-trends and regional differences in clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with LMCA disease treated with PCI in the Asia-Pacific region
ECG is one of the classic tests for coronary artery disease, but patients with coronary artery disease often have no onset of typical symptoms at the time of consultation, so it is difficult to capture ischemic changes on a conventional ECG. In this study, a diagnostic test was performed to assess the diagnostic value of wearable ECG for coronary artery disease, with the gold standard of coronary angiography and quantitative flow fraction. In addition, we followed up with the enrolled participants for 1 year to assess the relationship between wearable ECG and long-term prognosis.
