To Explore the Relationship Between Intestinal Flora and Ischemic Heart Failure Clinical Trial
Official title:
Correlation of Intestinal Flora and Metabolomics in Patients With Ischemic Heart
To provide new ideas for the treatment of patients with ischemic heart failure, this study is to search for differential metabolic markers associated with ischemic heart failure and to study the influence of fecal flora on the course of heart failure in patients with ischemic heart failure.
Heart failure (HF) is the final stage of all cardiovascular diseases. Myocardial damage caused by myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, hemodynamic overload, inflammation, or any other cause, can result in changes in myocardial structure and function, resulting in ventricular pumping and/or diastolic dysfunction. Among them, ischemic heart disease caused by coronary artery lesions is the primary cause of heart failure, clinically known as ischemic heart failure (IHF). More and more studies have confirmed that the structure and function of the gut and the substances in the gut play an important role in the pathogenesis of heart failure, and proposed the "gut hypothesis of heart failure". Previous studies have shown that regulation of intestinal flora and its metabolites may improve the progression of patients with heart failure to some extent, but further studies are still needed to explore whether regulation of intestinal flora can effectively delay the development of heart failure and thus improve the prognosis. This study recruited 150 patients with ischemic heart failure and 50 healthy volunteers matched with age and sex in the heart failure group required by the researchers plan to conventional drug treatment of heart failure, but in front of the collection of serum, stool samples, the patients and healthy volunteers shall be the standard diet, work and rest, time sampling (that is, the timing acquisition participants in the early morning of 2 g feces and 2 mL fasting venous blood).Metabolic profiles of serum and stool samples from patients with ischemic heart failure and healthy volunteers were studied using LC-MS, 1H NMR and 16sRNA based metabolomics and intestinal microbiome methods to identify differential metabolic markers associated with ischemic heart failure. The feces of patients with ischemic heart failure were transplanted into model rats to investigate the regulatory effects of the feces of patients with ischemic heart failure and the feces of healthy volunteers on the structure of intestinal microflora and related metabolism of normal and model animals, so as to systematically study the influence of the fecal microflora of patients with ischemic heart failure on the course of heart failure. ;
