Filter by:Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real world data through large-scale replication of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clinical questions real world data analyses can be conducted with confidence and how to implement such studies.
The aim of the study is to compare clinical outcomes between optical coherence tomography-guided versus angiography-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
Acrylamide, a widespread food-processing contaminant, poses a major public health concern due to its high exposure level in the general population and its toxicity. While animal evidence shows that acrylamide causes neurological alterations and may play a role in cardiovascular disease, evidence in humans is lacking. Our project aims to investigate whether dietary acrylamide exposure, measured in blood, increases the risk of dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases and myocardial infarction. In addition, the aim is to improve the understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying these associations integrating small compounds in blood (i.e., OMICS). In two population-based cohorts, the Cohort of 60-Year-Olds and the Swedish Mammography Cohort, acrylamide will be assessed in blood samples using a case-cohort design (around 2145 individuals, 20-year follow-up). The results will be presented in four scientific publications using adequate data analysis. The project will run from 2024-2028. The project´s findings will help improve public health through safer food and better nutrition. If findings indicate that acrylamide increases the risk of these diseases, this will urge interventions to decrease acrylamide exposure via food production and consumption. In turn, this will help to reduce the burden of these diseases. Even findings showing null association will be equally relevant to avoid unnecessary and costly preventive measures.
This trial is designed to evaluate whether low-dose colchicine, in addition to standard treatment recommended by guidelines, further reduces the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS) through a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effect of a vegetarian diet on innate immunity of patients with a recent acute myocardial infarction and healthy participants. Also, we will assess the willingness to adapt a more vegetarian eating habit. Study subjects will follow a vegetarian diet for five weeks, whereafter a stabilisation period of six weeks will follow. Then, participants will follow to the other dietary intervention for five weeks. Blood will be drawn at given time points to analyse inflammatory parameters.
This Randomized controlled intervention study recruited patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). A total of 240 patients were enrolled in either Henagliflozin group or control group. Patients in Henggliflozin group will be given by oral administration of Henggliflozin for 6 months post acute myocardial infarction. Prior to procedure, dynamic changes in myocardial enzymes were monitored. Major cardiovascular events, including non-fatal myocardial infarction, all-cause death, revascularization due to angina, and hospitalization for acute heart failure. This study aims to assess the impact of Henggelizin intervention on the reduction of myocardial infarction size (evaluated by cardiac enzyme) and improvement of left ventricular remodeling in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has a negative effect on acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients and appears to be closely associated with reduced left ventricular function. However, its impact on AMI patients with reduced left ventricular function remains unclear. This retrospective study included AMI patients with reduced left ventricular function to investigate the prognostic value of PH in this specific type of patient. Meanwhile, a nomogram would be established basing on the identified independent risk factors, hoping to provide a novel risk stratification for them.
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.
Cocaine use has increased in our country in recent decades. It is associated with cardiovascular events and early atherosclerotic disease. Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is one of its most frequent and serious manifestations. There is a lack of scientific information on ACS associated with acute and chronic cocaine use in Argentina. This study aims to describe the socioeconomic, clinical, and coronary angiographic characteristics, as well as the extent of atherosclerotic disease in patients with ACS associated with cocaine use, and to compare them with ACS not associated with cocaine use. Methods: We propose an observational, analytical, single-center, two-phase study, with a retrospective and a prospective component. Patients with a diagnosis of ACS admitted to the coronary care unit of a high-complexity public hospital will be included. Clinical, biochemical, coronary angiographic, extracoronary atherosclerotic disease extension and prognostic variables will be described. These variables will be compared between patients with cocaine-associated ACS and non-cocaine-associated ACS.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and efficacy of SGLT2i in limiting infarct size in patients with STEMI referred for PPCI. Eligible STEMI patients enrolled into the trial will be randomized to a SGLT2i or placebo. Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging will be used to determine the infarct size.
