Active clinical trials for "Myocardial Infarction"

Adiponectin (Ad) is an abundant protein in human body, and reports have shown that it act as a novel risk factor for brain and heart ischemia injury. This 5 years follow-up study will focus on serum adiponectin concentration, activity and isoforms in Chinese population and its correlation to these diseases.

This observational study will based on the Register of Information and Knowledge About Swedish Heart Intensive Care Admissions (RIKS-HIA) and the Swedish Coronary Angiography and Angioplasty Registry (SCAAR) which since 2009 are merged into The Swedish Web-system for Enhancement and Development of Evidence-based care in Heart disease Evaluated According to Recommended Therapies (SWEDEHEART). The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of different antithrombotic treatment options (treatment duration, type of treatment and combination of treatments) in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) patients on outcomes such as recurrent ischemic events and mortality.

The aim of our study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes at 30 days and 1 year (cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target lesion revascularization (TLR), target vessel revascularization (TVR), thrombosis of the device in patients who are undergoing angioplasty in myocardial infarction and in which bioabsorbable stent was implanted (BVS). Additionally, we will evaluate the acute recoil after implantation of bioabsorbable stents. A 24 months follow-up , by means of coronary angiography accompanied by QCA and assessment with intracoronary ultrasound (IVUS) and VH (virtual histology) is scheduled.

The purpose of this research is to determine if two proteins in the blood are increased during acute myocardial infarction and whether their levels are higher in those who develop heart failure than those who do not. These two proteins are produced and potentially released when the heart muscle is damaged. They may then be released into the blood and be detected by standard method in the research laboratory. At this time, detection of an increase in these proteins in the blood is not known to be associated with any disease or myocardial infarction.

Aim of investigators is to conduct a registry of acute myocardial infarction including a broad network of critical care / coronary care unit throughout Argentina to increase the knowledge about treatments, timing of reperfusion therapy and outcomes, both in-hospital and during short-term follow up.

Association between serum magnesium and clinical outcome in patients with acute MI (AMI) with 1 year follow-up in 300 patients in regions supplied by desalinated drinking water (DSW) (Sheba MC) and 150 patients in regions with non-desalinated drinking water (DW) (Nahariya MC).

Successfully perfused STEMI patients will receive routine transthoracic echocardiography qid for 4 days or placebo. Myocardial function and infarct size will be evaluated at 3 and 6 months.

The objective of this study is to investigative the influence of different levels of glycaemia or insulinemia in vascular endothelium in ischemia/reperfusion lesion after myocardial infarction

Aims assessment of renal artery stenosis incidence in consecutive AMI patients included in the Romanian National Programme of Primary Percutaneous Revascularisation; generating a cardio-renal-metabolic profile in patients with renal atherosclerotic disease; creating a local registry (based on European CARDS percutaneous interventional registries) which also includes renal, metabolic and vascular data; reporting long-term follow-up data on major cardiac adverse events (MACE) in the study group.

The role of lipids as risk factors for cardiovascular events is well-documented, although events studied have largely been broad classes without specific detail. This study will examine a more refined set of endpoints.
