Filter by:the investigators would like to compare the differences between roschvastin and atovastatin in patients who require high-dose statin/ejetimib to undergo a new generation of drug elution stent implantation for cardiovascular disease and maintain LDL cholesterol below 55 mg/dL.
This observation study is to evaluate blood lipid-lowering effects and liver/renal safety, changes in HbA1c and FPG in patients with dyslipidemia who administered CREZET tablets for 24 weeks.
High-intensity statins are recommended for secondary prevention of stroke in patients with atherosclerotic ischemic stroke. According to the guidelines of the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Society, high-intensity or high-dose statins are recommended for high-risk groups of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Statin therapy is recommended even if it is less than 100 mg/dL. The 2016 ESC/EAS and 2017 AACE guidelines include ischemic stroke and transient cerebral ischemic attacks caused by atherosclerosis in ASCVD, classifying them as ultra-high-risk groups, and recommending LDL cholesterol of less than 70 mg/dL as a treatment goal. The recently published guidelines for dyslipidemia in Korea also recommend that the target level of LDL cholesterol in patients with atherosclerotic ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack be reduced to less than 70 mg/dL or 50% or more from the baseline. According to a previous study on the efficacy and safety of high-intensity rosuvastatin in patients with ischemic stroke, it is not clear whether the use of rosuvastatin 20 mg prevents recurrence of cerebral infarction in the acute stage, but it is safe and effective for hemorrhagic conversion of cerebral infarction. In addition, the results were shown when rosuvastatin and ezetimibe were combined in patients with high cardiovascular risk, LDL cholesterol and total cholesterol decreased more in the combined group than in the single agent group. In a study comparing the group whose LDL cholesterol target was reduced to 70 mg/dL or less after stroke and the group maintained at 90-110 mg/dL, the group whose LDL cholesterol was controlled to 70 mg/dL or less It was confirmed that the incidence of cardiovascular disease was reduced. Existing studies aimed at general high-risk groups, not specific disease groups, and as in this study, studies were not conducted on a single disease group called acute stroke. In addition, there are only limited studies on the effectiveness and safety of diseases that occur mainly in the elderly, such as acute stroke. Therefore, there are currently no studies on the clinical efficacy and safety of high-intensity rosuvastatin and ezetimibe combination therapy for patients with acute cerebral infarction.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of CKD is increasing worldwide and is assumed to also dramatically increase in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Key shortcomings of available data on CKD in SSA are as follows: (i) Available data are based on single measurements and, therefore, cannot distinguish between harmless transient deterioration in kidney function and chronic kidney damage; (ii) Accurate information regarding renal protein loss, an important and early marker of kidney disease, is lacking; (iii) Cardiovascular risk factors for CKD, such as obesity, hypertension and diabetes, are often not searched for. Likewise non-classic potential risk factors, such as endemic infectious diseases, socioeconomic status and lifestyle have not been consistently recorded; (iv) Information to interrogate linked interaction over time between risk factors and development of CKD is unavailable. With this project, situated in a region representative of semi-rural SSA, we aim to fill this knowledge gap and (i) establish guideline conform prevalence data of CKD and its major cardiovascular risk factors, as well as (ii) prospectively define the incidence of cardiovascular- and non-classic risk factors of CKD. The data from (i) and (ii) is used to develop predictive models. A prospective cohort of 1200 individuals in a primary care facility will serve as study population. The population is representing a society in transition from rural to more urban lifestyle. In the pilot study, participants will be followed for one years and undergo the clinical and biomedical testing required to capture CKD and its classic and non-classic risk factors over time.
A Phase 4, non-randomized, multicentre, open-label, single-arm study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Saroglitazar 4 mg in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) with comorbidities (either obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia or metabolic syndrome).
This study aims to describe and/or searches for, in cohorts of adult sickle cell anemia (SCA) and SC sickle cell patients living in the French West Indies and followed by SCD Reference and Competence Centers: 1-lipids profiles and associations at steady state with occurrence of sickle cell disease (SCD) complications, 2-lipids profile evolution during and after prospective acute complications (vasoocclusive crises (VOC) and priapism), 3-lipids profile variation (inter /intra individuals) during 4 prospective years, 4- Genetic primary modulators of SCD complications, 5- insulin resistance (HOMA), free fatty acids and glycerol dosages, 6- lipids enzymes, lipidome and functionality of HDL in sub-groups of SCD population.
The aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of Curcumin supplementation in combination to the conventional therapy in improving the clinical outcomes, oxidative stress and inflammation in diabetic patients with risk of ASCVD.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of pitavastatin or pitavastatin and ezetimibe combination therapy on glucose metabolism compared to atorvastatin in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease with metabolic syndrome.
The major objective of this project is to examine whether daily consumption of milk polar lipids (MPLs) influences cardiometabolic risk factors.
Adding cottonseed oil to the diet has been shown to improve cholesterol profiles and other markers of chronic disease risk in both healthy and at-risk adults. However, CSO has only been tested in the context of high-fat diets. The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the health effects of lower amounts of cottonseed oil (CSO) added to the diet in adults at increased risk for cardiovascular disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How do different amounts of CSO in the diet affect fasting cholesterol profiles and markers of liver function? - How do different amounts of CSO in the diet affect fasting and post-meal markers of lipid metabolism (i.e. triglycerides) and glycemic control (i.e. blood sugar and insulin)? - How do different amounts of CSO in the diet affect fasting and post-meal markers of chronic disease risk factors such as oxidative stress, inflammation, coagulation potential, and appetite control? Participants will be asked to: - Consume provided breakfast shakes and snacks daily for 28-days. - Attend three weekly short visits for fasting blood draws, body measurements, and collect the next week of study materials. - Attend two longer (5.5 h) testing visits which include eating a standardized breakfast meal and having blood drawn periodically before and after breakfast. Researchers will compare CSO LOW, CSO MID, CSO HIGH, and Control groups (receiving a mixture of oils) to see if lower doses of CSO in the diet impart the same health benefits as previously shown with high doses of CSO.
