Active clinical trials for "Infarction"

The overall objective of this study is to describe the effectiveness of Flublok Quadrivalent vaccine compared to standard dose inactivated influenza vaccine (SD-IIV) in adults 18 through 64 years of age. During this study, Flublok Quadrivalent or SD-IIV will be administered according to the guidelines in the Prescribing Information materials and only to persons for whom it is indicated. The 2018-2019, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021 formulations of recombinant influenza vaccine (Flublok Quadrivalent vaccine) and SD-IIV will be evaluated for outcomes including all polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-confirmed influenza, PCR-confirmed hospitalized influenza, hospitalized community-acquired pneumonia and cardio-respiratory events.

The aim of GEOMETRY study is to investigate the correlation between coronary plaque geometric modifications and lesion vulnerability in patients with suspected coronary artery disease referred for cardiac computed tomography angiography (CCTA). Furthermore the study will evaluate the impact of plaque eccentricity and morphology on the rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) for a 2 years follow-up period.

This study is a prospective, observational, cohort study aiming to compare point-of-care high-sensitive troponin I testing from different sample types with central laboratory (CL) HS cTnI plasma samples. A registry of all included patients and their troponin results (POC, CL and HS cTnT) will be made to compare these testing methods.

Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is effective and safe for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) caused by large vessel occlusion (LVO) in major clinical trials. Whether the benefit of EVT in randomized trials could be generalized to clinical practice, especially in developing countries, remains unknown. The prospective Chinese ANGEL-ACT Registry (Endovascular Treatment Key Technique and Emergency Work Flow Improvement of Acute Ischemic Stroke) was established to evaluate the utilization, and subsequent outcomes of EVT treated AIS patients. This study is a multi-center, prospective registry study initiated by researchers, funded by National Key R&D Program of China. A total of 2,000 patients with acute ischemic stroke will undergo endovascular treatment. The hypothesis was that favorable outcomes from clinical trials could be achieved in clinical practice in China.

Dietary antioxidants might protect from the development of chronic diseases by reducing levels of oxidative stress. The investigators therefore investigated the effect of dietary Non Enzymatic Antioxidant Capacity, which measures interactions between antioxidants in the whole diet, on the risk of 1) myocardial infarction and 2) osteoarthritis.

PEACE study retrospectively evaluate patients who suffered an out-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) and who underwent a coronary angiography, enrolled in the registry of the Province of Pavia (Italy), Ticino Region (Switzerland), Wien region (Austria) and Nicosia area (Cyprus) to comprehend the best timing for post-ROSC ECG acquisition in order to reduce the number of false positive and to select the best candidates for emergency coronary angiography.

The ARCTIC-CABG (Aromatherapy for Cognitive Trajectory in Chinese after Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting) trial is a randomized, double-blind, 2-arm, parallel group, placebo-controlled study to evaluated the effects of Aromatherapy in improving cognitive function in post-Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) patients. The study will recruit 460 patients who undergo a first-time CABG at the Department of Cardiac Surgery in Beijing Anzhen Hospital. Baseline information will be collected prior to CABG, all eligible participants undergoing CABG will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio before hospital discharge to receive aromatherapy (70% menthol and 30% propanediol) or placebo (10% menthol and 90% propanediol). The treatment will last for 6 months in both groups. Cognitive function measurement will be conducted by blinded assessors at baseline (1-3 days before CABG) and at 3- and 6-month after CABG. The primary outcome will be the change in overall cognitive function (MOCA score) from baseline to 6-month after CABG.

Verify the effectiveness of a Heart Monitor in preventing events in patients over 18 years after acute myocardial infarction in a clinical unit. Patients with neurological disease or congenital heart disease we excluded from the study.

The investigators evaluate the effects of intracoronary and intravenous administration of nicorandil on cardiac sympathetic nerve activity and distribution in patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention

CABG (coronary artery bypass graft) surgery is among the most common heart surgeries performed in the heart pump. In CABG surgery, operations performed on the beating heart without the use of CPB (off-pump) are frequently performed (30-60%) (1). To the best of our knowledge, there has been no study examining cerebral oxygenation values, oxidative stress levels and postoperative results in CABG operations.
