Active clinical trials for "Cerebral Infarction"

A clinical trial to study the effects of dosage, infusion methods and complications of unfractionated heparin (UFH) treating acute progressive cerebral infraction was conducted. In this study, we observed the effects of four UFH treatments on 480 acute progressive cerebral infraction patients during from the 6th and the 72nd hour after the attack. It was concluded that the ultra-slow continuous intravenous infusion of UFH can significantly reduce the neurological deficit score of patients with progressive cerebral infarction, increase the cure rate, decrease the recurrence rate, and improve long-term quality of daily life. It is more effective than the treatment of intravenous infusion of low- molecular- weight UFH at once a day, and the risk of bleeding may not necessarily be increased.

The specific objectives of this thesis are in a cohort of patients with an acute ischemic stroke, To establish the degree of coronary arteriosclerosis. To describe left ventricular systolic and diastolic function in relation to changes of NT-proBNP.

This is a multicenter, open-label, prospective study of cilostazol use for prevention of recurrence in patients with cerebral infarction.

Neuroprotection is expected to be an important therapeutic strategy for acute ischemic stroke(AIS), but almost all neuroprotective drugs proved effective in rodent models have failed after entering clinical trials. This study aims to screen the differentially expressed proteins in peripheral blood of patients with acute ischemic stroke and with further study in the animal model of non-human primate cerebral infarction, we may determine the biomarkers that can evaluate the efficacy of neuroprotective drugs.

The purpose is to investigate if different microparticles and markers of hemostasis predict outcome after TIA or ischemic stroke and to study the association between these variables and stroke subtype or etiology.

The present study aims to develope a risk assessment model of ischemic stroke endpoint events combining multi-dimensional traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) indicators with modern medicine indicators. The proposed study is a registry study based participant survey conducted in 7 hospitals nationwide in China. After obtaining informed consent, a total of 3000 study patients diagnosed with ischemic stroke will be recruited. 1-year follow-ups are carried out on-site in hospitals and by telephone to track endpoint events. At the same time, we conducted a prospective, multicenter, real-world longitudinal cohort study at 7 hospitals in China to investigate the clinical effectiveness of Qilong capsule (QLC) combined with CT for IS with Qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome.

This study evaluate the effects of acupuncture method on the recurrence of ischemic stroke patients.Half of participants will receive "Huo Xue San Feng" acupuncture combining 1 antihypertensive medication on the routine ischemic stroke treatments' basis. While the other half will receive 1 antihypertensive medication and basic treatments for ischemic stroke.

The purpose of this study is to study the safety and feasibility of mobilization of acute ischemic stroke patients treated with IV-tPA between 12-24 hours of treatment.

This study will validate the sensitivity of a purine biosensor (SMARTChip) in detecting acute cerebral ischaemia in a group of patients undergoing elective carotid endarterectomy. The study will also investigate whether blood purine levels are indicative of future risk of stroke by comparing pre-operative blood purine levels in carotid endarterectomy patients (high risk group) and blood purine levels in a group of age and sex-matched controls.

Neuroglobin has shown rich neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia and hypoxia, and therefore has the potential to impact outcomes after acute ischemic stroke. Hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-1α is neuroprotective in several models of experimental brain injury and is increased in brain after acute cerebral infarction in humans and experimental animals.The investigators sought to examine the changes in serum neuroglobin and HIF-1α concentrations in patients with acute ischemic stroke during the initial 96-h period after stroke and assessed the relation between them and the relation of them to prognosis of such patients with acute ischemic stroke.
