Active clinical trials for "Vascular Diseases"

This is a retrospective, multi-center, real-world study. The researchers plan to include 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using butylphthalide and 10,000 cases of ischemic stroke patients using Urinary Kallidinogenase. The main purpose is to analyze the effectiveness and safety of butylphthalide and establish the drug risk assessment management plan.

The purpose of this study is to assess safety and effectiveness of the p64 MW HPC or p48 MW HPC Flow Modulation Device under prasugrel.

There is a need to re-evaluate the patients classified as NCPH and determine whether the new histological classification proposed by the VALDIG applies to the Indian scenario. We intend to identify the patient cohorts who have been diagnosed as NCPH, NCPF, EHPVO, hepatic venous outlet tract obstruction (HVOTO), Veno-occlusive disease (VOD) and sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) based on their liver biopsy, endoscopy, HVPG, and radiology reports. These patients will be screened to find the patients who fit the diagnosis of PSVD. It is important to establish whether the new definition of PSVD is relevant to the Indian population and establish the usefulness of invasive tests like liver biopsy in diagnosing the disease. The patient cohorts meeting diagnosis of INCPH will be compared with those meeting the new diagnosis of PSVD. The investigators will describe the clinical (demographic, clinical risk factors, socioeconomic status), etiological (associated conditions, coagulation disorders medication use, genetic risk factors), imaging (based on ultrasound Doppler imaging or cross- sectional imaging), endoscopic, fibrosis tests (using non-invasive tests), and the histopathology of the patients who fulfil the criteria of PSVD.

The purpose of this registry is to collect safety and performance data on all commercially available Terumo Aortic knitted and woven grafts, and cardiovascular patches in standard clinical practice. Data will be collected both retrospectively and prospectively.

MicroRNA-210 (miR-210) can be a potential therapeutic target of patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Recent evidence suggests the role of miR-210 and oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of PAD and its association with mitochondrial function, oxidative metabolism, walking distances and quality of life. The protocol evaluates the mechanisms which miR-210 regulates oxidative stress and provides evidence of potential therapeutic strategies.

Purpose: To show early feasibility of magnetocardiography (MCG) to identify coronary Cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) is the preferred non-invasive tests to assess for CAV and incorporation of quantitative myocardial blood flow (MBF) assessment improves diagnostic accuracy. Based on ISHLT criteria, the following have been proposed for diagnosis of CAV by PET:

Summary Purpose and Objective: The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of rapid acquisition of point of care 3D ultrasound in obtaining abdominal and/or pelvic images. The study will use a newly developed acquisition method and post-processing technique to create three dimensional image models of the abdomen and/or pelvis. Study activities and population group. The study population will be a convenience sample of patients of any age presenting to the Emergency Department with complaints necessitating a clinical abdominal and/or pelvic imaging. The study intervention includes acquisition of research ultrasound images, which will not be used for clinical care, and comparison of these images with clinically obtained images. Other clinical data such as surgical and pathology reports will also be reviewed. 3.Data analysis and risk/safety issues. This is a pilot study intended to determine feasibility and to refine image reconstruction algorithms. Research images will be compared to clinical images. Comparison of research images with final diagnosis will also occur. The research intervention, an ultrasound exam, has no known safety risks. The only risk to subjects is loss of confidentiality. This study is observational, not interventional, because the experimental ultrasound will be performed in all subjects and will not be used in the clinical care of patients (consequently, will not have the opportunity to affect clinical outcomes). Experimental images will be reviewed after completion of clinical care and will not be provided to the clinicians caring for the subjects. The investigators are not measuring the effect of the ultrasound examination on the subjects' outcomes.

This study examines the role of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor family and the EGF family of ligands in the regulation of non-myocytes isolated from the human heart.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death despite huge primary and secondary prevention policies with a strong economic burden. The primary objectives of the ILERVAS project are: (i) to identify unknown factors involved in the presence of atherosclerosis, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes and hidden kidney disease in a low/moderate cardiovascular risk population; (ii) to identify unknown factors involved in the progression of atherosclerosis, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes and hidden kidney disease in a low/moderate cardiovascular risk population; (iii) to Assess of the impact of arterial ultrasound on cardiovascular events and mortality in a low/moderate cardiovascular risk population. METHODS: Randomized intervention study. From 2015 to 2018, 16,660 participants (8,330 in the intervention group (Mobile Unit Follow-up Group) and 8,330 in the no intervention group (Electronic Medical History Follow-up Group )) aged between 45 and 70 years without a previous history of cardiovascular disease and with at least one cardiovascular risk factor will be randomly selected across the province of Lleida, Spain.

Patients undergoing semi-elective lower extremity major amputation from complications associated with atherosclerotic limb ischemia will received intra-muscular injections of allogeneic Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in the leg above and below the point of amputation to prevent ischemic wound complications after surgery and decrease the incidence of revision and further amputation. Cohort Groups 1-4 will serve as controls.
