Active clinical trials for "Coronary Artery Disease"

The goal of this observational study is to test the feasibility of intracoronary adenosine administration during coronary flow reserve(CFR) and index of microcirculatory resistance(IMR) assessment in a population with angina. The main questions it aims to answer are: Repeatability of CFR and IMR assessment while hyperemia with intracoronary adenosine was administered. Evaluate the correlation of the intrinsic signal of coronary waveform versus physiologic ischemia, while defined by fractional flow reserve(FFR) and CFR respectively. The predictive value of FFR, CFR, and IMR on major adverse cardiovascular outcomes in 3 years Participants will undergo FFR, CFR, and IMR assessments in the catheterization laboratory of the National Taiwan University Hospital Hsin-Chu Branch, then clinical events follow up for 3 years.

This was a single-center, prospective, open-label, observational study. Patients with coronary artery disease confirmed by coronary angiography and treated with drug-coated balloon catheter alone for target vessels were enrolled in the Cardiology Department of our hospital in January 2022. The primary endpoint was late lumen loss within 12±3 months after surgery.

This is a prospective observational study aimed at testing the existence of an association between frailty, inflammatory status, and degree of platelet activation and reactivity in elderly subjects with type 2 diabetes or coronary artery disease or Alzheimer's disease.

The T-ICE study is a prospective, observational study aiming to have information about the treatment and long-term prognosis of patients with isolated coronary artery ectasia.

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between periodontal disease and coronary artery disease through changes in the gut microbiome. In addition, the investigators aim to find possible periodontal pathogens that have association with cardiovascular disease.

Coronary CT angiography is challenging in patients with more than mildly calcified coronary vessels, because of calcium artefacts that prevents evaluation of the lumen. The purpose of the CCT-PCD-1-study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and image quality in coronary CT angiography using a commercially available CT system equipped with a photon counting detector technology. Patients referred for cardiac CT and conventional coronary angiography as part of routine preoperative evaluation before Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) will be asked for inclusion in the study. This group of patients has generally a coronary artery calcium burden and perform cardiac CT and coronary angiography as part of routine care. The diagnostic accuracy concerning significant coronary artery stenosis on the preoperative CT will be evaluated with the conventional coronary angiography as reference. Also, CT examination image quality will be evaluated.

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate diagnostic performance of resting full-cycle rate (RFR) in side branch lesion. We aims to evaluate whether the diagnostic performance of RFR in the side branch lesion is non-inferior compared to that in the main vessel lesion RFR and FFR measurements will be performed to define functional significance in patients with side branch lesion with or without main vessel lesion

Sex difference of coronary microvascular dysfunction evaluated by coronary flow reserve will be assessed in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease

The study will estimate the current status of care for participants with coronary artery disease

At present, the investigators don't know the relationship between plaque stability and the metabonomics changes. In the present study, investigators will evaluate the plaque stability by intravascular unltrasound in stable coronary heart patients, and metabonomics was also assessed by high throughput sequencing. Statistic analysis were carried out to analyze the correlation between plaque stability and metabonomics changes among these study patients.
