Filter by:This is a single-center, randomized, single-blind, investigator-initiated, pharmacological study with a parallel design. Patients with non-ACS undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention will be randomized after informed consent, in a 1:1:1:1 ratio to the following treatment groups: Group Α: Domestic Clopidogrel 300mg as a loading dose before PCI, followed by 75mg per day. Group B: Domestic Clopidogrel 600mg as a loading dose before PCI, followed by 75mg per day. Group B: Imported Clopidogrel 300mg as a loading dose before PCI, followed by 75mg per day. Group D: Imported Clopidogrel 600mg as a loading dose before PCI, followed by 75mg per day. Platelet inhibition ratio assessment by thrombelastogram will be performed，2 hours after the loading dose(Day 0)， 6 hours after thrombelastogram (Day 0), 30 day after thrombelastogram. Documentation of major adverse cardiac events (death, myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization procedure with PCI or CABG) and serious adverse events (bleeding, other adverse events)will be performed until Day 30.
The cases were hospitalized patients from two medical centers in Beijing and Harbin respectively. Venous blood was collected by standard vein puncture in fasting condition.
Valvular heart diseases (VHD) are the most common causes of mortality and morbidity after coronary artery disease, hypertension, and heart failure, especially in senile patients who have more comorbidities and often require intervention. The prevalence of senile VHD is increased gradually as the growth of the age. In addition important changes have occurred as regards the presentation and treatment of the disease over recent years. However, there is little information about senile VHD in China. The purposes of this study are to evaluate the clinical characteristics, reasons for hospitalization, risk stratification, treatment modalities, quality of life and outcomes of senile hospitalized patients with VHD, to determine the risk factors affecting the prognosis, further to lay the foundation for establishing a prognosis model suitable for Chinese senile VHD.
Prolonging infusions may decrease myocardial damage associated with bivalirudin use during primary PCI. The investigators hypothesized that continuing the bivalirudin infusion commenced during the procedure at the PCI recommended dose for 4 hours would prevent myocardial damage.
To evaluate the therapeutic evaluation of combination therapy with aspirin and salvianolate injection based on the population pharmacokinetics and TEG.A prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial is used.A total of 120 patients will be recruited and will be divided into three groups,respectively salvianolate injection group,aspirin group and salvianolate injection and aspirin group，and the course of treatment is 10 days.
Paediatric clinical trial in 50 children, from newborn to less than 6 years of age, suffering from heart failure due to congenital heart disease, to obtain paediatric pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic data of enalapril and its active metabolite enalaprilat while treated for 8 weeks with enalapril in form of Orodispersible Minitablets (ODMTs), to describe the dose exposure in this patient population.
Some patients with a long history of AF develops PH "reactive" type with an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance due to vasoconstriction or structural changes of the vascular wall. RFA PVI + RFA GP is the "gold standard" in the treatment of patients with persistent AF, do not respond to optimal therapy. The rear area of the pulmonary artery bifurcation is adjacent to the roof and part of the front of the left atrium. In the projection of this area are ganglionic plexus of the left atrium, the sympathetic nerve fibers of the pulmonary artery and baroreceptors main pulmonary artery.Recent studies have shown that radiofrequency denervation of the pulmonary artery improves the quality of life in patients with PH.
In this randomized clinical trial before and after study we will assess the effect of L-citrulline malate on brachial index in patients with coronary heart disease based on their smoking history. Twenty patients with coronary heart disease with no history of diabetes or other chronic diseases and with no history of myocardial infarction in the last 6 months will participate in our trial.A written well-versed permission was attained from all patients. We will measure the brachial index tow times once before giving L-Citrulline malate and the other time after 2 weeks giving it.Patients receiving L-Citrulline malate as a 1 gram dry powder agent twice a day, that should in use with 250 mg dilute water .The patients will followed after 2 weeks by measuring brachial index which is our primary outcome measurement in this trial.We assumed that the brachial index in both smoker and non-smoker group of patients with coronary heart disease would change to normal or close to normal after giving 1 gram L-citrulline malate twice a day for 2 weeks.
The primary outcome for this project will be the development of a small, non-invasive wireless sensor that is linked to a conventional computer that can be used in health care for monitoring of acute and chronic health problems. The advantages of developing this technology are threefold. First, monitoring can be conducted for a fraction of the cost of a bedside nurse. Second, monitoring can be done in real time and stored so that we can diagnose and manage critical events in a more timely manner. Lastly, many patients can be monitored simultaneously. The wireless sensors will be fitted to healthy volunteers of various ages. The data gathered from the sensor with respect to their vital signs will be compared to that of conventional tools such as nursing assessments and pulse oximetry.
Individuals with obesity have an increased risk for heart disease and diabetes. There are current drugs on the market that target the hormone, Glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) to treat diabetes. The investigators want to determine if targeting this hormone will also help people with high cholesterol and triglycerides. In this study, the investigators are looking at the role of GLP-1 in healthy subjects and subjects that have had bariatric surgery.
