Filter by:Patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy are being compared to a control group. IMR will be assessed with a pressure wire. Clinical f/u at 3 months and 6 months and a 48 hour holter monitor.
Odyliresin (Iresine Celosia) is a cytochrome-flavoprotein with a powerful anti-oxydant action on cells, has a therapeutic effect on BPH-related LUTS, reducing symptoms, prostate volume, improving the patient's quality of life and eventually limiting the number of patients who require surgery or endoscopy after medical treatment.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is present in 1 in 7 of the population and confers a high risk of cardiovascular disease. The pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease in CKD is poorly understood because CKD is always accompanied by confounding factors including the underlying disease process (e.g. diabetes mellitus, systemic vasculitis) and the consequences of CKD including hypertension, anaemia and inflammation. Nephrectomy in kidney donors causes a 30% reduction in renal function providing an ideal study population to measure prospectively the effects of reduced kidney function on the cardiovascular system. The CRIB-Donor study (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:NCT01028703) demonstrated adverse effects on cardiovascular structure and function at 12 months compared to controls including an increase in left ventricular mass. This proposal will measure the changes in cardiovascular structure and function, cardiovascular age and biochemical changes at 5 years providing information on the long term effects of reduced renal function.
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is common in people with type 2 diabetes (70%) and is the strongest independent risk factor for cardiovascular events and all-cause mortality that there is. It is worse than triple vessel coronary disease. LVH often occurs in patients with "normal" blood pressures (BP). Apart from BP, the other three main factors causing LVH are insulin resistance, obesity and cardiac preload. Dapagliflozin reduces ALL four factors known to promote LVH i.e. Dapagliflozin reduces weight, glycaemia, preload and blood pressure and is therefore the ideal agent to reduce LVH since it uniquely attacks all four known mediators of LVH. This trial will investigate the ability of dapagliflozin to regress LVH in 64 participants with normotensive diabetes. This will be done by seeing if dapagliflozin reduces left ventricular mass as measured by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This trial may identify a novel way to reduce the strong independent risk factor of LVH which often persists despite optimum medical therapy in patients with diabetes. If dapagliflozin does reduce LVH, this would be a key sign of which subgroup of patients with diabetes (those with LVH) should be especially targeted with dapagliflozin. 64 participants with type 2 diabetes and LVH will be recruited through the Scottish Diabetes Research Network (SDRN), Scottish Primary Care Research Network (SPCRN) and other routes, in this single centre study. Participants will be randomised to receive either 10mg dapagliflozin or placebo daily for 12 months. Cardiac MRI will be performed at baseline and at 12 months, this will be assessed for the primary outcome of change in left ventricular mass. Secondary outcomes will examine change in 24 hour blood pressure and weight.
This is a randomized, double-blind, within-subject placebo controlled study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of various doses of STP705 administered as intradermal Injection in subjects with hypertrophic scar. The goals are to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose, the pharmacokinetics and pharmacidynamics parameters, and conduct analysis of biomarkers common to the scar formation pathway.
Evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Rezum System for the treatment of BPH
Evaluate the effect of the NxThera BPH Rezum System on prostate tissue in subjects suffering from LUTS symptoms secondary to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
The aim of this research was to evaluate the lingual tonsil hypertrophy (LTH) grading of patients with dysphagia using videolaryngoscopy and determine the relation of LTH grades to sociodemographic factors and clinical symptoms.
The purpose of this phase 2 open-label pilot study is to evaluate the efficacy, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), safety, and tolerability of MYK-461 in subjects with symptomatic HCM and LVOT obstruction aged 18-70 years.
This study evaluates mechanisms of arrhythmogenicity in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, in comparison to patients with well-understood arrhythmogenic substrate (ischemic cardiomyopathy), as well as to individuals free from arrhythmogenic substrate
