The Influence of Metformin on Chronic Heart Failure Clinical Course in Patients With Prediabetes...
Chronic Heart FailureCoronary Artery Disease1 moreIt is well known fact, that prediabetes is a predictor of high cardiovascular mortality, increasing the risk of developing such adverse cardiovascular events as myocardial infarction, stroke and sudden cardiac death. The key pathogenetic link in development of carbohydrates metabolism disorders (CMD) is insulin resistance (IR), which is one of the crucial mechanisms for the development and progression of chronic heart failure (CHF). IR disrupts the functioning of the myocardium due to endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, oxidative stress, remodeling and impaired myocardial metabolism. In condition of a combination of CMD and CHF the reverse development of hyperglycemia is also difficult due to hyperactivation of neurohormonal systems - renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, in particular. So, drug therapy should neutralize the undesirable metabolic effects of hyperglycemia on the course of CHF, as well as prevent the development of micro- and macrovascular complications. The study will investigate the ability of metformin to impact on clinical and laboratory (neurohormonal, lipid profiles, renal function) parameters of ischemic etiology heart failure patients with prediabetes, as well as their quality of life and prognosis (incidence of adverse cardiovascular events). These tests will be assessed at the beginning and repeated after one year. At the end of the study we will investigate the difference between lifestyle modification effect and metformin treatment. The study is funded by Ministry of Education and Science of Kyrgyz Republic.

Power Walking in Cardiac Patients Who Underwent Post-coronary Angioplasty
Heart DiseasesIschemic4 moreThe risk and prevalence of cardiovascular disease in United Arab Emirates (UAE) is high with ischemic heart disease ranks first in terms of major cause of mortality. Large number of patients undergoes coronary angioplasty but very few participate in cardiac rehabilitation because its awareness is not widespread in middle east region. The objectives was to find the influence of standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program along with power walking on Heart quality of life (Heart QoL), functional exercise capacity, Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction and metabolic equivalent task (MET's) among patients with post coronary angioplasty. The investigators conducted a randomized clinical trail in out patient physiotherapy department at Thumbay hospitals Dubai, on patients who underwent coronary artery angioplasty. After meeting the inclusion criteria, participants were randomized into standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program along with power walking (intervention group) or standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program (control group). A 4 weeks of 12 outpatient cardiac rehabilitation sessions consisting of 3 sessions per week was provided to both the groups. Intervention group received standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program along with power walking based on targeted heart rate and weekly steps, whereas control group received only standardized outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program based on American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) Guidelines. The investigators measured Quality Of Life (HRQoL) by HeartQoL questionnaire, Exercise Capacity by 6 min walk test (6MWT), Left ventricle Ejection fraction (LVEF) using Echocardiogram, Metabolic Equivalent Task (MET'S) using Symptom-limited exercise stress test and Average number of steps walked daily using step up smartphone Pedometer App.

Cloud-based ECG Monitoring and Healthcare Model Building on the Population With Coronary Artery...
Coronary Artery DiseasePercutaneous Coronary Intervention1 morePercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) are the golden treatments for stable coronary artery disease (CAD) combined with heart failure (HF). The goal of treating HF patients is to prevent repeated hospitalizations and improve peri-operative survival; clinically, although routines including beta-receptor inhibitors, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, and mineralocorticoids have been shown beneficial for the prognosis, for patients with severely low left ventricular ejection rate, hypotension, and pulmonary disease, the introduction of these drugs in the early postoperative period should still be cautious and may need to be adjusted with related cardiovascular function parameters. Patients with low cardiac output syndrome, ventricular arrhythmia, or hemodynamic instability should be suspected of the failure of bypass grafts if accompanied by changes in the electrocardiogram (EKG) and an increase in myocardial enzymes. Intervention should be carried out as soon as possible after angiography detects graft failure to limit the occurrence of large-scale myocardial injury and prevent the development of severe myocardial failure. This study is start on June 1 2020. And will include 400 patients who have just undergone PCI and 300 CABG patients who diagnosis of stable coronary artery disease. We will register their medical history, medications, and routine medical examinations within one year, and perform tests such as phonocardiography (Audiocor). They will be worn and measured daily at home after discharge. The data of the electrocardiogram and the PPG bracelet will be registered with their continuous daily values. All subjects tracked the occurrence of adverse medical events within one year after discharge from the hospital. Based on the home-based remote personal care model for patients with CABG, a risk prediction model for heart failure and vascular restenosis was established to effectively reduce medical treatment, adverse events, and medical expenditure.

Plasmonic Nanophotothermal Therapy of Atherosclerosis
Stable AnginaHeart Failure2 moreThe investigators hypothesize that the nanoburning is a very challenging technique to demolish and reverse the plaque especially in combination with stem cell technologies promising the functional restoration of the vessel wall. The completed (in July 2012) interventional three arms (n=180) first-in-man trial (the NANOM-FIM trial) assessed (NCT01270139) the safety and feasibility of two delivery techniques for nanoparticles (NP), and plasmonic photothermal therapy (PPTT) of atherosclerotic lesions. Patients were assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive either (1) nano-intervention with delivery of silica-gold NP in mini-surgery implanted bioengineered on-artery patch (n=60), or (2) nano-intervention with delivery of silica-gold iron-bearing NP with targeted micro-bubbles or stem cells in hands of magnetic navigation system (n=60) versus (3) stent implantation (n=60). The primary outcome was TAV at 12 months. The observational prospective cohort analysis (an amendment to the protocol of August 29th 2012 with a decision to extend a 1-year study for another 4 years with the assessment of the 5-year clinical outcomes both retro- and prospectively) of the long-term clinical outcomes at the intention-to-treat population of 180 patients with CAD and angiographic SYNTAX score ≤22 enrolled initially to NANOM-FIM trial will be performed at 5 years after the intervention. The primary outcome will be a MACE-free survival. The secondary outcomes will be MACE, cardiac death, TLR (target lesion revascularization) and TVR (target vessel revascularization). Imaging endpoints will be assessed pre-, post- procedure and at 12-month follow-up. Clinical endpoints will be analyzed at the baseline and at 12 and 60-month follow-up (the release of results is expected after October 2016). Parameters of nanotoxicity will be assessed. The independent adjudication analysis of the clinical outcomes is scheduled in 2017-2019. The subset post-hoc analysis will be conducted at 1- and 5-year follow-up (by the Amendment of August 29th 2012). At the first subset, patients underwent stenting with XIENCE V stent proximal to the site of nano-intervention (n=13). Subjects in the second subset were undergone drug-coated balloon pre-dilation with further nano-technique (n=20). Lesions in patients of the third subset were not prepared for the nano-approach (n=147) (neither stenting nor balloon angioplasty). The analysis will be performed and results will be released after 2018 with the same clinical outcomes.

Time to Thrombocytic Inhibition After Supine and Upright Ingestion of Efient
Heart DiseaseIschemic Heart Disease1 moreThe purpose of the study is to clarify wether body posture during ingestion of 60mg Efient, a thrombocytic inhibitor, has influence on the time to thrombocytic inhibition. The study aims to mimic the treatment Danish patients receive when admitted to the hospital with a ST-elevation myocardial infarction since these patients are refereed to acute Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) necessitating fast and efficient thrombocytic inhibition. Current guidelines recommend the administration of Efient right before the PCI procedure, while the patient is lying down, either in the ambulance or in the operating room. We, the investigators, believe that this is suboptimal for the patient, since any sort of prolonged inhibition time will possibly worsen the patients prognosis and make the patient more prone to later clotting issues. Our hypothesis is that by making the patients ingest the tablets in a 90 degrees upright position and making them sit up for 2 minutes after ingestion, the effect of the pills will commence faster than if taken in a supine position. This will possibly lead to faster inhibition of the thrombocytes, which we believe will lead to a lower incidence of clotting issues during and after the procedure.
