Filter by:The present study is testing spermidine treatment in elderly patients with coronary artery disease. The study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-armed, parallel-group, single centre, clinical study.
1. Preliminarily explore the correlation factors of differences in the efficacy of levamlodipine besylate in the treatment of hypertension. 2. Quantitatively analyze the influence of covariates such as patient demographic factors, personal history, combined medications, and biochemical indicators on the efficacy of levamlodipine besylate, and establish a population pharmacokinetic model of levamlodipine besylate, to achieve clinical Individualized treatment and rational drug use.
Comparison of high-resolution optical coherence tomography (High-Res-OCT) to conventional imaging modalities for the diagnosis of eye diseases
There is existing data in the literature that suggests an additional predictive value of three dimensional ECG with respect to the presence of electrical abnormalities and for an existing cardiac disease. Especially regarding patients who suffered from a myocardial infarction in the past (post MI patients), evidence has been provided for a potential association of 3D repolarisation abnormalities and incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD). In addition, there is some vague evidence of so called 3D ECG and prediction of coronary artery disease. This 3D ECG device is using the technology of 3D ECG vector loops and is assessing the variability of these ECG vector loops in the 3-dimensional space. Based on these data, the parameters of 3D ECG are suggested to carry certain value to predict or to identify individuals already suffering from a cardiac disease or being at risk experiencing a cardiac event in the future. In this context we performed a preliminary study with 3D-ECG device in healthy volunteers evaluating the robustness of this method with respect to reproducibility, intra- and intra-observer variability which could be confirmed. We thus postulate that the 3D ECG technology might bear the potential to serve as a sufficient screening method for diagnosing cardiomyopathy in patients with an unknown heart failure etiology.
The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of clevidipine for treating Hypertensive emergencies(defined as systolic blood pressure >180 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure >120 mmHg, accompanied by acute organ damage).
Prevalence of primary aldosteronism (PA) in resistant hypertension is not clear. In addition, emerging evidence supports the role of elevated serum aldosterone in promoting cardiovascular disease, independently from high blood pressure (BP) levels, but current data on this issue are heterogeneous.
In Singapore, hypertension is very common in the adult population. Hypertensive heart disease is a leading cause of heart failure and cardiovascular death. Current management relies primarily on achieving blood pressure targets. However, the optimal blood pressure goals are controversial and there are inherent difficulties in measuring blood pressure using external devices applied to peripheral arteries. As a result of (usually longstanding) hypertension, the heart thickens (i.e. hypertrophies) to maintain function. Ultimately, HF may occur due to long standing energy deficits, muscle injury/death and diffuse interstitial fibrosis (heart muscle scarring). In an ongoing study (REMODEL, ClinicalTrial.gov Identifier NCT02670031), we have been able to undertake preliminary analyses with respect to factors associated with the development of fibrosis. In this randomize controlled trial, we will be examining a novel therapy that has the potential to induce regression cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis.
The investigators propose a home hospital model of care that substitutes for treatment in an acute care hospital. Limited studies of the home hospital model have demonstrated that a sizeable proportion of acute care can be delivered in the home with equal quality and safety, reduced cost, and improved patient experience.
This is a randomized clinical trial with blinded, multi-center, involving the Federal University of in Rio de Janeiro(UFRJ), through the School of Nursing Anna Nery, as a proponent and research coordinator; and as a collaborative educational institutions, the Federal University of in Espirito Santo, represented by the Department of Nursing; and the Higher School of Sciences of the Santa Casa de Misericordia of Vitoria, developed by building doctorate thesis as a final product of the research.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the proportion of patients with "true" resistance among patients referred to the Medical Outpatient Department of the Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin with the diagnosis "resistant hypertension". Moreover, data on medication adherence will be collected based on therapeutic drug monitoring and on the answers to validated questionnaires. Finally, efficacy, safety and costs of renal sympathetic denervation will be compared to an intensified drug treatment in an exploratory way.
