Active clinical trials for "Heart and Blood Diseases"

The NUMEVOX cohort is intended to follow-up the macro and microvascular dysfunction in relation to adipose tissue repartition in patients with metabolic syndrome associated to liver steatosis, sleep apnea. Duration of the follow-up is 3 years for each patient entering the cohort.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether heart rate variability-like parameters are related to changes in the disease status of a subject that suffers from a disease that decreases the pumping function of the heart.

STUDY TYPE: Prospective, national , multicenter, and observational study. OBJECTIVE: To assess the incidence of AF in patients with cryptogenic stroke who have implanted an AF detection device during a period of 2 years. DEVICE: Reveal XT 9529 (SQDM) SAMPLE SIZE AND STUDY DURATION: 100 patients enrolled which will be followed during a period of 2 years.

The purpose of this study is to compare plaque burden in the coronary and carotid arteries 5 years after adjuvant radiotherapy in women with right sided breast cancer vs left sided breast cancer.

The study will examine the prevalence of venous thromboembolism in children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia treated in accordance with NOPHO ALL-2008. The investigators will prospectively study clinical symptomatic thromboses, asymptomatic central line-associated thromboses, and infections.

Trial of new work in progress (WIP) sequences in MRI.

The primary objective of the EASY-CHINA Registry is to describe the clinical epidemiology of Chinese patients with NSTE-ACS, to evaluate their current anticoagulation management in China, and the resources used for it.

Turner Syndrome (TS) is associated with osteopenia and osteoporosis. Reduced bone mineral density (BMD) and increased risk of fractures are present in many younger and middle-aged women with TS. The objective is therefore to describe longitudinal changes in BMD in TS. The study is an observational follow-up study. Examinations at baseline, after 5 and 10 years. Bone mineral density is measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) and bone turnover by bone markers. Main Outcome Measures: Bone mineral density (BMD; grams/ square centimetre) were measured at lumbar spine, hip and the non-dominant forearm.

The purpose of this study is to determine the progression evaluation, cardiovascular outcomes, and genetic determinations of hypertension in Chinese

Previous studies comparing on-pump and off-pump operating strategy did only partially demonstrate benefits of the off-pump myocardial revascularisation.In primary end-points (MI, death, renal failure, and so on) there was no significant difference, but in secondary end-points we observed benefits resulting for patients. We would like to show the benefit of the method without extracorporeal circulation in patients with higher and hight operation risk, coming from EuroSCORE classification system (6 points and more).
