Filter by:Coronary heart disease (CHD) stands as a foremost contributor to global mortality, characterized by complex pathogenesis that renders conventional "one-size-fits-all" preventive strategies inefficient. Therefore, the investigators designed a prospective, multi-center cohort study among patients hospitalized due to either confirmed or suspected CHD, which aimed to establish a holographic data set for the diagnosis and treatment of CHD and explore the impact of critical therapeutic strategies in the real world on the clinical outcomes of CHD patients, providing evidence to optimize the management pathway.
The utility of Ultra High-Resolution Computed Tomography (UHR-CT) compared to conventional CT in all-comers (i.e., a generally lower-risk population) remains uncertain but is an important area of study in order to justify wider spread implementation and use of this technology, particularly in light of reports of significantly higher radiation exposure with UHR-CT, as well as longer scan times. The availability of technology to reconstruct conventional resolution (CR) simulation images from the raw CT acquisition data acquired on the UHR-CT scanner offers a unique platform to study this question without subjecting individuals to two different scans. The primary objective of this study is to generate preliminary data in support of the hypothesis that noninvasive UHR-CT is superior to conventional resolution CT for identifying patients with obstructive CHD.
The goal of this study is to understand and compare an alternative model of care in comparison to the usual model of care in include male and female participants ≥18 years of age with a history of ASCVD (hear and blood vessels diseases) or high-risk participants who have elevated bad cholesterol (LDL-C ≥1.8 mmol/L). The alternative model of care includes telephone support calls from a study nurse (after visits 1,2 and 4) and text messages to your mobile phone with healthy heart information. The main question it aims to answer is to understand and compare an alternative model of care in comparison to the usual model of care by evaluating the study participants bad cholesterol values after 180 and 365 days of the study. Each participant will take their medications as per usual care but may have the addition of Inclisiran, 284 mg 1.5 ml liquid in a single-use prefilled syringe for under skin administration. In accordance with the current medical practice guidelines for treating heart related conditions, Inclisiran and its product information will be made available for use in both care models. All the participants who decide to take part in this study will be requested to do the following: - Answer any questions from the study doctor or the study staff as accurately as possible when asked about changes in health status, medications, heart health, visits to other doctors or hospital admissions, planned surgery, even if they think none of these are related to the study. - Study doctor will be able to inform them of which medications you can and cannot take as part of this study. - To use mobile phone to receive text messages and/or questionnaires as proposed in the new model of care. - Advise the study doctor if they plan to move away from the geographical area where the study is being conducted during the study period. - Take the medications for cholesterol lowering treatment (such as a statin and/or ezetimibe) that are prescribed by the study doctor. - Tell the study doctor or study staff as soon as possible about suspected participant / participant partner pregnancy. - Tell the study doctor or study staff if they change their mind about taking part in the study. - Attend all the visits (screening visit, visits 1, 2, 3, 4 and visit 5). - Provide all the information that will enable the study team to contact them, i.e., inform the study staff if contact details change, provide contact details of a family member, etc.
This study focuses on patients with incomplete revascularization combined with renal insufficiency. And since heart and kidney are two organs influence each other, the study take the mechanism of heart and kidney comorbidity and the risk factors of the two organs.As one of the traditional Chinese sports, Tai Chi is an aerobic exercise combineing movements with static postures, which can significantly improve the aerobic endurance of patients with coronary heart disease. In this study, a parallel, randomized controlled study method is used to quantitatively evaluate the myocardial ischemia condition by myocardial perfusion imaging indicators. This study aims to figure out whether the cardiac rehabilitation training program based on Tai Chi has a positive effect on the patients' myocardial ischemic.
A Phase IIB Parallel group Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MEDI6570 in Participants with a Prior Myocardial Infarction.
This study will assess the effect of lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) with evolocumab on major cardiovascular events in adults without a prior myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke who are at high risk of a cardiovascular event.
Coronary heart disease (CHD) poses a major health burden in the Gulf countries. It is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the world and poses an enormous societal burden in the Gulf countries. Early detection of disease is imperative to reduce the health care burden and financial costs associated with CHD. Knowledge of novel genetic and proteomic markers of CHD will provide more precise estimates of risk while defining the pathways important in individual patients, revealing new targets for intervention, and ultimately enabling an individualized approach to care. To translate recent advances in genomics and proteomics into clinical practice, these newly discovered biomarkers will need to be evaluated in patients of diverse ethnic groups with varying characteristics, environmental factors, and medication use. The investigators propose to establish a biorepository of plasma and Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) linked to demographic and clinical variables to facilitate biomarker studies of CHD risk, progression, and outcome. The overarching goal in developing the Qatar Cardiovascular Biorepository (QCBio) is to create a resource that fosters research aimed at identifying novel biochemical and genetic markers of CHD. A biorepository with linkage to clinical data will also provide an invaluable resource for cardiovascular research, including genomic and proteomic studies of CHD and development of biomarkers for early detection of disease and personalized drug therapy (pharmacogenetics and pharmacoproteomics).
The association between alcohol consumption and cardiovascular disease (CVD) has mostly been examined using broad endpoints or cause-specific mortality. The purpose of our study is to compare the effect of alcohol consumption in the aetiology of a range of cardiovascular disease phenotypes.
This study is dedicated to determination of the long term effectiveness of coronary heart disease (CHD) treatments - cardiac shock wave therapy (CSWT) in comparison with other kinds of medical and surgical treatment. For that purpose the investigators will observe the patients with CHD who enrolled in this study in their routine course of treatment. But the investigators will not interfere with the patient treatment. Each participant will be followed-up for five years. The collected data will allow to determine if the particular method, CSWT, could really make any additional contribution to the more traditional methods of CHD treatment and if the CSWT is only temporarily effective or could exert the long term effect as well.
The main purpose of this study is to examine the contribution of personality traits to marital satisfaction and well -being among couples coping with Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) and couples from the general population, and to health promoting behaviors and physical recovery among the ill partners.
