Active clinical trials for "Heart and Blood Diseases"

To find the correlation between different stages of CKD and type and severity of foot abnormalities in diabetic patients with CKD. To assess factors that may aggravate foot abnormalities in diabetic patients with CKD by measuring serum calcium, phosphorus, parathyroid hormone, albumin, uric acid…etc.

This study evaluate the association of some in-ICU factors with the neurological prognosis of patients admitted for an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest due to a myocardial infarction.

The psychoBehçet'study is aimed at evaluating the psychological and neurocognitive symptoms in 25 consecutive patients followed for Behçet's disease. This is a monocentric, observational, non interventional study.

The charts of patients who developed pulmonary embolism in the course of COVID-19 will be evaluated, retrospectively. Clinical features and laboratory data will be analyzed.

The investigators aimed to test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of patient-completed CRS in hospitalized patients and to evaluate whether this form can be widely used in clinical practice instead of only health care workers' evaluation.

The CAvEAT study is a not for profit, international, multicenter study aimed to assess the feasibility of selective coronary angiography (CA) after Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI), to investigate predictors of successful selective cannulation (anatomical, technical, etc.) and to investigate if there is a significant difference among different type of transcatheter valves in selective coronary cannulation.

Intermittent or continuous proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy are recommended for high-risk bleeding ulcers according to the French Society of Gastroenterology. The prevalence of incidence of vein infusion phlebitis after PPI intravenous infusion is high in geriatric acute ward (about 10% of severe vein infusion phlebitis). The primary of objective of the study is to determinate the prevalence of vein infusion phlebitis after PPI intravenous infusion in aging people. The secondary of objective of the study if to determinate the factors of risk of vein infusion phlebitis.

NHP referred to our outpatient clinic will be enrolled (150 newly recruited) in acute saline test for phenotype characterisation of PNat relationship(7). For each patient we will collect urine and blood samples for standard clinical biochemistry, including electrolytes, creatinine, EO, aldosterone, plasma renin activity, urinary uromodulin (ELISA), urinary and serum uric acid and blood samples for genetic test.

Rationale: coronary microvascular disease is a relatively 'new' entity within the field of cardiology. The investigators are able to investigate the microcirculation by measurements performed in the catheterization laboratory. But even though measurements are performed on a daily basis, a lot of questions regarding microvascular disease remain. The rationale of this registry is to get an overview of patients and measurement values in daily routine practice. Objective and main endpoint: No previous registries have been set-up where coronary blood flow and resistance was systematically stored. Therefore the analyses will be mainly descriptive. The objective is to acquire a better insight in the indications and use of this technique in everyday practice , its consequences for clinical decision making, and to enable interventionalists to exchange mutual knowledge about this specific methodology and about the coronary microcirculation in general. Study design: prospective registry Study population: All patients who underwent coronary angiography with or without coronary intervention for any reason and if an indication for the foreseen intracoronary physiologic measurements is present according to the discretion of the operator. Intervention (if applicable): none, only usage of measurement data. The only 'intervention' for all patients is a questionnaire.

The goal is to compare the results observed in patients that had both an exercise oximetry and a thallium scintigraphy for lower limb claudication
