Coronary Artery Surgery Study (CASS)
Cardiovascular DiseasesCoronary Disease2 moreTo compare coronary artery surgery with medical management in patients with coronary artery disease and to maintain a registry on all patients undergoing coronary arteriography, whether operatively or medically managed.
Coronary Revascularization in Patients On Dialysis in China-Retrospective Registry
Coronary Artery DiseaseEnd Stage Renal Disease1 moreCoronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of death in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients requiring dialysis. There are limited data on clinical characteristics, treatment strategies and outcomes in this special patient population in China. As a nationwide, observational, multicenter cohort study, this study consecutively included ESRD patients on dialysis with significant CAD at 30 tertiary care centers in 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021. Patient data collected included demographics, comorbidities, cardiac history, cardiac function, location and severity of CAD, procedural information, medications, and clinical events.

Ischemic Heart DiseaseCardiovascular Diseases2 moreThe purpose of this study is to conduct a prospective, multi-center, single arm, non-randomized evaluation of acute outcomes in Chinese subjects, including those eligible for percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) with a reference vessel diameter of 2.25 mm to 4.0 mm, with the Medtronic Resolute Integrity™ Zotarolimus-Eluting Coronary Stent System.
ENdothelial Healing Assessment With Novel Coronary tEchnology
Coronary Artery DiseaseThis is a prospective, non-randomized, single center clinical trial to assess neointimal coverage on the stent or scaffold strut and apposition of SYNERGY™ and ABSORB in minimum of 12 eligible human subject at 4 month and 12 month after stent or scaffold implantation using OCT and CAS
Optical Coherence Tomography in Acute Coronary Syndrome
Acute Coronary SyndromeSTEMI - ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction3 moreThe OPTICO-ACS- study program - combining for the first time in vivo characterization of the ACS-causing "culprit lesion" by intracoronary imaging technique with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and molecular analysis of immune-cells derived from the culprit coronary thrombus and biochemical analyses in patients with acute-coronary-syndrome (ACS).
Effects of Remote Ischemic Conditioning on Myocardial Perfusion in Humans
Ischemic Heart DiseaseCardiovascular disease is the second leading cause of death in Denmark, and ischemic heart disease accounts for the bulk of it. The purpose of this study is to clarify whether a mechanical method of remote ischemic conditioning in the form of short-term obstruction of the blood supply to the arm, can improve the heart's blood supply in patients with ischemic heart disease. This will be attempted through experiments on patients with ischemic heart disease and experimental animal studies with simulated cardiovascular disease. This study will help to clarify whether remote ischemic preconditioning can be used to treat patients with ischemic heart disease.

Stable AnginaNon ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction3 moreThe current study sought to evaluate the clinical relevance of iFR-guided strategy in real world clinical practice using unrestricted study population from stable angina to acute coronary syndrome including acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Previous abundant historical data of FFR-guided strategy will be also included as historical control to validate the iFR-guided strategy.
Coronary Artery Plaque Burden in Stable Angina and Non-obstructive Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery DiseasePlaque1 moreNon-obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly common in women, has been associated with impaired quality of life and risk of recurrent hospitalizations. Several studies have also demonstrated increased risk of incident acute coronary events and mortality. The main objective of the project is to assess the association between coronary artery plaque features by coronary CT angiography and long term prognosis in a large unselected population undergoing CT coronary angiography due to stable angina and suspected myocardial ischemia from the Norwegian Registry for Invasive Cardiology (NORIC) diagnosed with non-obstructive CAD by coronary CT angiography.
CTO Registry From Insight of IVUS in Fuwai Hospital
Coronary Heart DiseaseChronic Total Occlusion of Coronary Artery2 moreTo evaluate the long-term outcome of chronic total occlusion (CTO) patients underwent contemporary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) techniques, we design this single-center, large-sample, prospective registry with five-year clinical follow-up, based on the intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) finding.
Association Between Carotid Plaque Length and Cardiovascular Events
Coronary ArteriosclerosisThis multicenter study involved 5 hospitals (Changhai Hospital; Yueyang Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; Gongli Hospital; Putuo Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; No. 904 Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistics Support Force Wuxi). The study enrolled 3637 patients with coronary atherosclerosis who were confirmed by coronary angiography from January 2017 through December 2018.
