Active clinical trials for "Angina Pectoris"

The study goal was to understand the effect of Metformin on Age/Sex/Gene Expression Score (ASGES) or Corus CAD (henceforth "Corus") in pre-diabetic patients who are medication naive. This study provided data to determine if the Corus CAD (ASGES) signature was different in pre-diabetic patients when metformin was newly prescribed and taken.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether preoperative loading dose atorvastatin can prevent perioperative myocardial infarction during angiography and main adverse cardiac events 1 month after operation in stable angina, unstable angina and acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients undergoing elective coronary angiography and PCI, and determine whether its mechanisms are associated with microcirculation resistance.

The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of XIENCE PRIME SV in real world practice in Japanese hospitals.

Cardiovascular risk functions fail to identify more than 50% of patients who develop cardiovascular disease. This is especially evident in the intermediate-risk patients in which clinical management becomes difficult. The purpose of this study is to analyze if ankle-brachial index (ABI), measures of arterial stiffness, postprandial glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, self-measured blood pressure and presence of comorbidity are independently associated to incidence of vascular events and whether they can improve the predictive capacity of current risk equations in the intermediate-risk population.

The purpose of the study is to determine the Pharmacokinetics of Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) in Cancer patients, and compare it to the Pharmacokinetics of LMWH in Patients without cancer. We also intend to detect any correlation between heparanase blood and urine levels and the Pharmacokinetics of LMWH.

The first aim of this trial is to assess the long-term prognostic value of Omega-3 index, which is a measure of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) relative to other fatty acids in the erythrocyte membrane, in an unselected, regional multicenter observational study of 982 chest pain patients admitted to the emergency unit, employing blood samples collected at admission. The second purpose of this study is to evaluate the prognostic utility of vitamin D in the same population. The third purpose of this study is to assess the incremental prognostic value of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP).

To determine the incidence, secular trends, and outcomes of coronary heart disease in the population of Rochester, Minnesota.

The investigators sought to investigate the efficacy of low frame rate (fluoroscopy at 7.5 frames per second (FPS) and Cine at 10 pulse per second (PPS) vs. conventional (15 FPS and 15 PPS) on radiation dose to the patient and the operator during coronary angiography and intervention. In addition, investigators sought to qualitatively assess the effect, if any, of the low frame rate on angiographic image quality.

The purpose is to test whether daily ischemic conditioning of the arms over 30 days could reduce the frequency and severity of angina pectoris and improve the life quality of refractory angina pectoris patients.

Management of known patients with cardiovascular disease (in particular the whole spectrum of atherosclerotic ischaemic coronary artery disease, essential hypertension under treatment, and also patients with chronic heart failure under medication) and with other associated chronic pathologies, with obvious effects on the management of the pandemic with modern / distance means (e-Health) of patients at high risk of mortality in contact with coronavirus. Given the Covid-19 Pandemic, all the above complex cardiovascular patients are under the obligation to stay in the house isolated and can no longer come to standard clinical and paraclinical monitoring and control visits. Therefore, a remote management solution (tele-medicine) of these patients must be found. The Investigators endeavour is to create an electronic platform to communicate with these patients and offer solutions for their cardiovascular health issues (including psychological and religious problems due to isolation). The Investigators intend to create this platform for communicating with a patient and stratify their complaints in risk levels. A given specialist will sort and classify their needs on a scale, based on specific algorithms (derived from the clinical European Cardiovascular Guidelines), and generate specific protocols varying from 911 like emergencies to cardiological advices or psychological sessions. These could include medication changing of doses, dietary advices or exercise restrictions. Moreover, in those patients suspected of COVID infection, special assistance should be provided per protocol.
