Differential Effects of Lipids on Cardiovascular Diseases: A CALIBER Study
Stable AnginaUnstable Angina3 moreThe 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.
OCT Based Edge and In-stent Vascular Response After Cordimax Stent in patIents With NSTE-ACS
AnginaUnstable1 moreThis study evaluates the completeness of strut coverage and vessel wall response, at different time points (3-6-12 Months), following CordimaxTM stent implantation in patients with non-ST elevation acute coronary syndrome
Biomarkers and Risk Scores for Risk Stratification of Unstable Angina
Chest PainThe main purpose of the study is to improve management and expedite safe discharge of patients presenting with chest pain with troponin ≤14ng/l using fifth generation, 'highly sensitive' troponin T. Our aim would be to specifically test in a prospective study whether biomarkers for left ventricular wall stress (NT pro brain natriuretic peptide), ischaemia (Heart-type fatty acid protein) and a novel marker of stress, raised in a number of pathological states growth differentiation factor -15, add significantly to the prognostic value of clinical information and resting ECG presenting with ischaemic sounding chest pain. The 5th generation troponin assay will be used and the range of values from 1-14ng/l will also be compared to the biomarkers studied in terms of hard cardiac endpoints. Recent studies have indicated that very low levels of detected troponin in patients with stable coronary artery disease do adversely impact on cardiac death and the development of heart failure.
Evaluation of Short Term Outcome of Different Bifurcation Stenting Techniques at Assuit University...
STEMI - ST Elevation Myocardial InfarctionUnstable AnginaPrimary aim: evaluation of the short term outcome of different techniques used in bifurcational coronary arteries intervention regarding major adverse cardiac event (MACE): cardiac death, myocardial infarction, target vessel revascularization, or stent thrombosis and occurrence of Unstable angina (UA) with ECG changes and echo findings in the same target vessel in Assiut university Cath. lab. Secondary aim: calculation of the percentage of bifurcational coronary arteries intervention in Assiut University Cath.lab
Social Deprivation and Initial Presentation of 12 Cardiovascular Diseases: a CALIBER Study

Serum Uric Acid Levels and Onset of Cardiovascular Diseases: a CALIBER Study
Stable AnginaUnstable Angina11 moreSerum uric acid level is a commonly measured biomarker. The association between serum uric acid level and the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases has been observed in some studies, while others showed controversial results. Estimation of this association may help to predict cardiovascular outcomes and may guide new treatment strategies. The hypothesis is that increased serum uric acid level is associated with a range of cardiovascular diseases.
Quantification and Description of the Increase in Serum Troponin Following Acute Coronary Syndrome...
Acute Coronary SyndromeMyocardial Infarction1 moreThe new assay of troponins T (highly sensitive troponins) detects concentrations much lower than before. Few data are currently available on their kinetics during acute coronary syndrome, especially in regard to the correlation with CK MB. The aim of the present study is to describe the kinetic of highly sensitive troponins in acute coronary syndrome, to correlate it with the concentration of CK MB, and possibly to evaluate their prognostic value with respect to infarct size .
