to evaluate safety and efficacy of CGBIO stent(DES) compared to Biomatrix flex stent(DES)
In our clinical controlled trial, patients with coronary heart disease will be randomly assigned into the exercise intervention (low intensity resistance training with vascular occlusion) or usual physical activity group (control group).
In this study, typical cases of coronary heart disease are selected. They will be intervened by Xuesaitong soft capsules to investigate efficacy and safety for Coronary Heart disease.
The optimal antithrombotic treatment for Coronary Heart disease (CHD) patients combined with Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is unresolved at present. Although the European and American guidelines have given a hand for us, there is absence of real-world data on the safety and efficacy of antithrombotic therapy in Asian populations. Only a few clinical trials are available to guide difficult decision on antithrombotic therapy in patients with combined AF and CHD,the investigators highlight the need for the rapid development of clinical trials to close the large gaps in evidence. This research aims to know the real-world use of antithrombotic treatment and clinical prognosis in Coronary Heart Disease patients complicated with Atrial Fibrillation.
Arrhythmogenic ventricular cardiomyopathy (AVC) is a genetic condition which affects the heart and can lead to heart failure and rhythm problems, of which, sudden cardiac arrest or death is the most tragic and dangerous. Diagnosis and screening of blood-relatives is very difficult as the disease process can be subtle, but sufficient enough, so that the first event is sudden death. The Mayo Clinic AVC Registry is a collaboration between Mayo Clinic, Rochester, USA and Papworth Hospital, Cambridge University Hospitals, Cambridge, UK. The investigators aim to enroll patients with a history of AVC or sudden cardiac death which may be due to AVC, from the US and UK. Family members who are blood-relatives will also be invited, including those who do not have the condition. Data collected include symptoms, ECG, echocardiographic, MRI, Holter, loop recorder, biopsies, exercise stress testing, blood, buccal and saliva samples. Objectives of the study: 1. Discover new genes or altered genes (variants) which cause AVC 2. Identify biomarkers which predict (2a) disease onset, (2b) disease progression, (2c) and the likelihood of arrhythmia (ventricular, supra-ventricular and atrial fibrillation) 3. Correlate genotype with phenotype in confirmed cases of AVC followed longitudinally using clinical, electrocardiographic and imaging data. 4. Characterize desmosomal changes in buccal mucosal cells with genotype and validate with gold-standard endomyocardial biopsies
The purpose of this study is to develop imaging protocols when using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) to assess cardiac functions, morphology and tissue characterization. The National Heart Research Institute Singapore (NHRIS) houses two dedicated CMR scanners to support the numerous investigator initiated projects in patients with various cardiac pathologists. By optimizing novel CMR sequences used in these studies, scanning time can be shortened for patients with underlying cardiac diseases.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether text messages/messaging (TM) or a mobile application (app), compared with an educational website-control provided to all Veterans, can improve adherence to antiplatelet therapy among patients following acute coronary syndrome or percutaneous coronary intervention (ACS/PCI).
We design a prospective, observational cohort study to provide contemporary information on the prevalence, characteristics, risk stratification,cost-effective ,treatments and prognosis of Chinese hospitalised adult patients with valvular heart disease.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most prevalent congenital malformation affecting 1 in 100 newborns per year. Children with CHD are a known risk population for brain injury, with neurodevelopmental alterations shown over time in up to 50% of cases. No adequate description exists of the type of neurocognitive anomalies or risk factors associated with CHD, and consequently no prognostic markers that may allow identification of high-risk cases are available.
