Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

This study will evaluate the effect of dapagliflozin versus placebo, given once daily in addition to Standard of Care (SoC) therapies for patients with myocardial infarction (MI), for hospitalisation for heart failure (HHF), cardiovascular (CV) death, and other cardiometabolic outcomes.

To investigate the effect and safety of intracoronary autologous bone morrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) transplantation in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction（ STEMI） .

The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of rivaroxaban-based versus warfarin-based antithrombotic regimens on outcomes of patients with left ventricle thrombosis following acute ST elevation myocardial infarction at 3 months from enrollment in an open-label parallel groups pilot randomized clinical trial

STEMI is a serious type of coronary heart disease, which is a major cause of disability and death. Morphologically the key feature of remodeling is myocyte hypertrophy, myocyte loss from necrosis or apoptosis, as well as interstitial cell growth especially fibroblast proliferation leading to myocardial fibrosis . Elevated serum LDL-cholesterol concentrations play a proatherogenic role by stimulating inflammation and oxidative processes. Statins have been documented to retard fibrosis and ventricular hypertrophy by the cessation of myofibroblast activity. Clinical studies have proven that statins not only regulate lipids but also improve myocardial fibrosis, regulate cell proliferation and apoptosis, regulate ventricular remodeling, and protect the myocardium

the study is to investigate the relationship of several parameters of complete blood count (CBC) including RDW with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in a cohort of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients.

A cardiac arrest event has severe impact on the patient´s health-related quality of life. Survival of cardiac arrest does not innately translate to favorable quality of life. In particular, highly invasive resuscitation strategies, including extracorporeal cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) due to therapy-refractory cardiac arrest, may have impact on long-term outcomes. Therefore, apart from acute medical treatment and physical rehabilitation, long-term effects on cardio-pulmonary, physical and neuro-psychiatric functions after cardiac arrest survival have to be evaluated and optimized. We plan to investigate a bundle of cardio-pulmonary, physical and neuro-psychiatric functions in patients who survived a therapy-refratory cardiac arrest with ECPR.

This is a Phase 1, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic of NP-011 in healthy volunteers.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI), triggered by myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury, is a disease with high morbidity and mortality, and there is a tendency for its incidence to increase at younger ages. One of the most worrisome complications of primary percutaneous surgery is contrast-induced nephropathy, which is associated with increased mortality and morbidity in myocardial infarction after coronary interventions. In many studies, inflammatory markers, which are thought to give an idea about the development of contrast-related nephropathy, have been examined. The transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a master regulator of cytoprotective protein expression driven by antioxidant response agents (AREs) and plays a decisive role in the regulation of oxidative defense and redox homeostasis in cells. There are studies showing the role of Nrf2 in the pathogenesis of kidney damage in some studies. Studies on the effect of Nrf2 level on contrast media nephropathy in patients with contrast media nephropathy (CIN) are limited in the literature. This study also aimed to form a basis for the literature, which is a small number of studies, in later studies.

Stress, anger and depressed can operate as a trigger to an Acute Coronary Syndrome. It is often found in the literature that patients refer excessive anger, anxiety, sadness, pain or acute stress before the acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Moreover, a recent meta-analysis reported a strong association between the occurrence of AMI and many of these acute emotions. Anger is a common manifestation of psychological stress and could trigger off an atherogenic process through several mechanisms. Coronary atherosclerosis features narrowing of coronary arteries on account of endothelial thickening caused by the build up of atheromatous plaques. It is a process characterized by inflammatory and fibroproliferative response of the artery wall, caused by continuous aggression to its surface and whose thickening, evoked by the evolution of fat streaks atherosclerotic lesions, until fiber plaques is quite slow. Endothelial dysfunction also results in the loss of natural anti-thrombotic properties involved in the endothelium patency. According to a study performed by our group, anger management was significantly lower among patients with CAD when compared to those without CAD, and the occurrence of major cardiovascular events (MACE) was significantly higher in patients presented with lower anger control. Both associations were independent from traditional risk factors, occurrence of previous events or another anger aspects. Thus, this study was designed in order to evaluate the effect of the "cognitive training to anger management " on endothelium-dependent vasodilation of the arm artery in patients with acute myocardial infarction with ST segment elevation submitted to primary coronary intervention.
