Active clinical trials for "Ischemia"

To verify whether GLS and LV mechanical dispersion, measured by two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) correlate with LV scar burden measured by cardiac MRI in patients with ischemic heart disease.

The importance of the microvasculature in determining clinical outcomes has been highlighted in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). For patients with stable CAD, despite the success of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in relieving a stenosis in the epicardial coronary artery, microvascular dysfunction may preclude sufficient coronary flow and myocardial perfusion, possibly leading to worse clinical outcome. With the technical development of computational fluid dynamics, angiographic derivation of index of Index of Microcirculatory Resistance (IMR) without pressure wire, hyperemic agents, or theromdilution method is available as a potential alternative for pressure wire-derived IMR. In this regard, the current study will evaluate diagnostic implication of angiography-derived IMR and its prognostic implication after PCI in patients with stable CAD.

Previous research has shown there wasn't inevitable relationship between mismatch area and infarct growth according to Volumetric-subtraction mismatch volume.The recently published on Stroke paper has proposed Coregistration mismatch to calculate the mismatch to replace ischaemic penumbra, and it reignites hope for clinical application of the PWI/DWI mismatch. But the correlation between the mismatch, calculated by Coregistration mismatch method,and the clinical outcome of the patients with acute ischemic stroke is still unknown. so the investigators plan to conduct a prospective observational cohort study.

The purpose of this study is to explore the severity of malnutrition and inflammation in Taiwanese hemodialysis patients.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the ABCD2 score can be used in patients with transient ischemic attack, admitted to Beijing anzhen hospital, to evaluate the prognosis, risk factor of those patients.

Correlation of(OxyVu) values to to ABI, TBP, and TCOM in patients scheduled for foot level amputation because of critical limb ischemia, infection, or tissue necrosis.

wide range of diagnoses may present like stroke, called stroke mimics as well as transient ischemic attacks .

This proposed study will be conducted to support real-world-evidence on the extent of best medical treatment for secondary prevention of patients with symptomatic peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) for prevention of worsening limb symptoms or of major adverse cardiovascular events. The overall objective of this study is to gain a better understanding of patient characteristics, treatment patterns and outcomes in PAOD patients. For this purpose the investigators will analyze a patient population hospitalized either with intermittent claudication (IC) or chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI) while taking prior PAOD-related diagnoses in the outpatient setting into account. In detail, we study differentials according to age, calendar time, sex, disease severity and hospital procedure. Data were extracted from available German health insurance claims.

The aim of this study is to assess the diagnostic accuracy of CMR feature-tracking (FT) at rest & during stress with low dose dobutamine (LDD) in the evaluation of viability in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients and compare it with delayed gadolinium enhancement (DGE).

The burden of non-disabling ischemic cerebrovascular events (NICE) is significantly increased. However, few previous studies have focused on affective impairment after transient ischemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke. Stroke survivors are often described as apathetic. Even though post-stroke apathy (PSA) affects one in three stroke patients,it has not hitherto received much attention. NICE-A is a prospective study aimed to explore the association between baseline apathy and probable incident stroke in a population-based sample of TIA and minor stroke adults.
