Filter by:The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of combined treatment using nonablative laser and human stem cell media (HSCM) on the regeneration of hypertrophic scars that occurred after burns.
Assess the prevalence and features of left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) taking into account gender differences and stage of CKD. To detect factors those predict LVH in CKD. *to assess the right ventricle dysfunction in CKD .
The aim of this study is to compare the outcome of microneedling therapy with or without amnion bilayer sheeting on post-burn hypertrophic scar tissue. A clinical trial will be conducted with 17 samples, from September to December 2021.
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Protescal in preventing post caesarean section hypertrophic scar and keloid formation.
This study aims to evaluate the prevalence of Fabry Disease (FD) among a cohort of high risk patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) presenting at the University Hospital Würzburg over the last 20 years. Fabry disease is a rare disease that is known to be consistently underdiagnosed due to its largely variable symptoms. Considering that an early Fabry diagnosis is crucial for maximum benefit from therapies available, screening for Fabry patients can contribute to preventing development and worsening of symptoms in Fabry patients with LVH. In addition, a positive diagnosis in a family member opens the possibility to diagnose further family members in an earlier stage of the disease, therefore allowing treatment of symptoms and organ manifestations before they become irreversible.
1. Study name: Prospective Comparison of Angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) with Amlodipine on ventricular remodeling in hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy. 2. Medicine: sacubitril/valsartan (ARNI, 200mg tablet) and the matching placebo; amlodipine (5mg tablet) and the matching placebo. 3. Rationale: according to the results of previous clinical studies, ARNI has obvious advantages in improving cardiac remodeling and reducing blood pressure. However, there is no evidence to demonstrate the efficacy of ARNI in reducing blood pressure and improving ventricular remodeling in hypertension patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) compared with calcium channel blockers. 4. Objective: to demonstrate the superior efficacy of ARNI on improvement of LVH and blood pressure control compared with amlodipine in hypertension patients with LVH. 5. Study design: This study This is a 24-week prospective, randomized, active-controlled, double-blind, multi-center study, with two equally sized treatment groups: sacubitril/valsartan (200mg tablet); amlodipine (5mg tablet). 6. Study population: men or women aged over 18 years; Untreated patients or patients with taking single antihypertensive drugs; Essential mild to moderate hypertension; Echocardiographic diagnosis of LVH. 7. Randomization and treatment: Eligible patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups, taking one pill of sacubitril/valsartan (200mg tablet) + one pill of matching placebo of amlodipine daily, or one pill of amlodipine (5 mg/tablet) + one pill of matching placebo of sacubitril/valsartan daily. 8. Follow up: after meeting the inclusion criteria, there will be 2-week placebo run-in. Then patients will be randomly assigned into ARNI group and amlodipine group. There will be 5 visiting points in the treatment period, which will be the 4th week, 8th week, 12th week, 18th week and 24th week. 9. Sample size: 120 patients in total. 10. Timeline: After obtaining the approval of Ethics Committee of Ruijin Hospital in April 2021, recruitment will start. Patients enrollment and follow-up will be performed between June 2021 to June 2022.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of squat-to-stand maneuver in eliciting left ventricular outflow gradients in patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) compared to Valsalva, amyl nitrite inhalation, and exercise stress echocardiogram (ESE).
Phase 2a, prospective, randomized, double-blind, intra-subject, placebo-controlled, proof of concept study. Approximately twenty subjects will be randomized 1:1 to one of two treatment arms: Arm A: 2.0 mg/cm OLX10010 biweekly (every two weeks) Arm B: 5.0 mg/cm OLX10010 biweekly (every two weeks) Each treatment arm will have approximately 10 subjects. Each subject will receive both active (OLX10010) and control (placebo) treatment post-hypertrophic scar surgery biweekly (every two weeks) for a total of six doses. Dosing will occur post-surgery on Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12. Post-treatment follow-up visits will occur at Weeks 18 and 24, and a long-term follow-up visit will occur at Month 12. The Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (both physician and patient scales), Stony Brook Scar Evaluation Scale, Vancouver Scar Scale, and a photograph-based visual analog scale by blinded experts will be completed prior to scar revision surgery, at Weeks 2, 8, 12, 18, and 24, and at Month 12. The overall opinion responses on the physician scales of the POSAS at Week 24 will be used for primary endpoint analysis. The total length of the linear hypertrophic scar line will be divided equally for treatment with OLX10010 and placebo, injected intradermally per centimeter (cm). The OLX10010 end and placebo end of the scar line will be separated by a 2 cm or greater distance depending on the scar length. After the Week 24 visit, all data collected will be cleaned and all data management activities will be completed. After the database is frozen/locked, the primary endpoint efficacy analysis will be completed. If at least one of the treatment arms are shown to be appropriate to reduce recurrence of hypertrophic scars, all analyses will be performed. If the efficacy analysis of Arms A and B indicate the study doses are not as effective as expected, the sponsor may decide to add a third arm (Arm C) to explore the weekly dosing regimen. See detailed summary. Subjects in all study arms will continue in the study until their Month 12 visit. After all subjects complete that visit, data are collected, and data management activities are completed, Month 12 data will be analyzed.
The study aims to test the diagnostic accuracy of native T1 mapping for the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis prospectively. The hypothesis is that native T1 mapping with a cut-off value of 1341ms (3 tesla CMR) in older patients with symptomatic heart failure, increased LV wall thickness and elevated cardiac biomarkers is non-inferior to the reference method to diagnose cardiac amyloidosis (CA). As secondary measure, a web-based ATTR probability estimator for the diagnosis of CA will be evaluated.
Observational study on patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy aims to investigate the correlation between cardiac fibrosis, as indicated by cardiac magnetic resonance, and the prognosis, and further to explore biomarkers for cardiac fibrosis and adverse prognosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Therefore, endpoints including all-cause mortality, cardiovascular death, ventricular arrythmia, non-fatal stroke, non-fatal myocardial infarction, sudden death, successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation will be evaluated.
