Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

Ticagrelor-based De-escalation of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting trial (TOP-CABG trial) is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority, parallel controlled trial. The aim of TOP-CABG is to investigate whether de-escalated dual antiplatelet therapy (De-DAPT) is non-inferior to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in efficacy on inhibiting great saphenous vein (SVG) graft occlusion and is superior in reducing bleeding events in patients accepting coronary artery bypassing grafting.

Glucose monitoring after Acute Myocardial infarct in people with diabetes is a Dexcom funded study that is investigating whether the use of continuous glucose monitors (Dexcom ONE model) in people with type 2 diabetes facilitates time in glycaemic range in the 6 months after an acute myocardial infarction. As an exploratory outcome it will investigate whether time in glycaemic range is associated with changes in mortality and major adverse cardiac events in the 6 months after acute myocardial infarct.

This study examines the effect of cord blood in the treatment of newborn infants with neonatal encephalopathy in combination with hypothermia, which is the standard treatment for this condition. The hypothesis is that the cord blood + hypothermia combination will produce better neuroprotection than the standard treatment of hypothermia alone.

Although recommended therapy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction is primary PCI, it remains unestablished whether patients with a symptom duration of more 12 hours benefit from acute revascularisation. This study aims to investigate whether acute intervention is superior to subacute intervention in these patients.

REDUCING INFLAMMATION IN ISCHEMIC STROKE WITH COLCHICINE, AND TICAGRELOR IN HIGH-RISK PATIENTS-EXTENDED TREATMENT IN ISCHEMIC STROKE.

In a single-center, open-label, prospective, controlled, clinical study, it is planned to include 300 patients hospitalized in the cardiology department of SBHI Penza regional clinical hospital n.a. N.N. Burdenko. Recruitment of patients will be carried out at the Department of Therapy of the Medical Institute of the Penza State University. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria and not meeting the exclusion criteria will be included in the study. Initially, lipid-lowering treatment with atorvastatin is prescribed at a dose of 80 mg / day from the first 24-96 hours of AMI in addition to the standard therapy. If there is no achievement of the target level of LDL-C, ≤1.5 mmol / L after 5-6 weeks from the AMI onset, patients additionally receive ezetimibe at a dose of 10 mg 1 time / day. Standard AMI treatment includes dual antiplatelet therapy, ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers (if indicated). Prescription of proton pump inhibitors and nitrates is possible (if indicated). The total follow-up is 96 weeks. Prescreening - 600 people; screening and randomization - 300 people. Parameters of electrical myocardial heterogeneity, myocardial deformation characteristics, vascular rigidity, and quality of life will be assessed according to the study plan.

Myocardial infarction (MI), as one of the many complications of COVID-19, is one of the contributing patients of patients' death. This study attempts on developing an intervention of MI by regenerating damaged cardiomyocytes due to insufficiency of oxygen in cardiac muscles, triggered by an occlusion of coronary artery (MI). Heart patch developed from amnion bilayer seeded with amnion epithelial stem cells and patient's autologous cardiomyocytes is used as a therapy. Patients who undergo bypass (CABG) surgery are given heart patch, and then patients condition are observed by ECG, Echo, blood test, and radiology (technetium-99m)

Beta-blockers have the greatest cardiovascular impact in patients with reduced heart function/heart failure and in reducing the peri-operative risk of atrial fibrillation. In patients without these high-risk features treated with coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, their continued long-term role is unclear.

Neuraminidase-1 can cause the removal of terminal sialic acid residues from the cell surface or serum sialyloconjugates. The level of Neu5Ac was positively related to the activity of neuraminidase-1. Elevation of Neu5Ac was observed in myocardial ischemia animal model, as well as patients with coronary artery disease. It is interesting to note that Neu5Ac and its regulatory enzyme neuraminidase-1 seem to play a key role in triggering myocardial ischemic injury. Oseltamivir, a structural mimic of sialic acid, was widely used as anti-influenza drug. It suppressed neuraminidase-1 activity in the heart. Targeting neuraminidase-1 may represent a new therapeutic intervention for coronary artery disease. This project seeks to identify whether neuraminidase inhibitor (Oseltamivir) treatment could decrease the myocardial infarct size in STEMI patients and improve clinical outcomes.

The primary purpose of this study is to determine if there are significant differences with respect to baseline between those randomized to CGo and standard-of-care versus standard-of-care alone after completing 12-weeks of therapy in terms of peripheral endothelial function measured by EndoPAT.
