Ultrafiltration Versus IV Diuretics in Worsening Heart Failure
The REVERSE-HF study is a randomized controlled trial to evaluate clinical outcomes of adjustable ultrafiltration with the Aquadex System as compared to adjustable IV loop diuretics in patients with worsening heart failure (HF) and fluid overload.
Virtual Reality and Computerized Cognitive Intervention for Mild Cognitive Impairment in Heart Failure
This research project is relevant to public health because both heart failure (HF) and mild cognitive impairment (e.g., trouble remembering and concentrating beyond normal aging) are highly prevalent among older adults in the United States. Despite advances in health care, there are no effective interventions for treating cognitive impairment in …
Conduction System Pacing vs Biventricular Pacing in Systolic Dysfunction and Wide QRS: Mortality, Heart Failure Hospitalization or Cardiac Transplant
Conduction system pacing vs biventricular resynchronization therapy in systolic dysfunction and wide QRS: mortality, heart failure hospitalization or cardiac transplant (CONSYST-CRT II trial). Superiority trial that aims to study the composite endpoint consisting of all-cause mortality, cardiac transplant or heart failure hospitalization at 12-month follow-up.
LEft Bundle branchArea Pacing to Avoid Pacing-induced CARdiomyopathy
LEAP-CAR will evaluate the benefit of left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP), comparing to conventional right ventricular pacing (RVP), in preventing pacing-induced cardiomyopathy (PICM) in patients undergoing pacemaker implant for advanced (2° or 3° degree) atrioventricular block, with baseline left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) >45%. LEAP-CAR is a randomized, prospective, …
Peri-treatment of SGLT-2 Inhibitor on Myocardial Infarct Size and Remodeling Index in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction and High Risk of Heart Failure Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
We aimed to identify whether SGLT-2 inhibitor administration before and after coronary intervention is effective in reducing the size of infarction and myocardial remodeling in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and high risk of heart failure, and its mechanism. For this reason, we compared cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) …
The Effects of Resveratrol on Sirtuins and Apoptosis Biomarkers
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and neoplasms are the main causes of death in Brazilian women. Coronary artery disease (CAD) and stroke were responsible for approximately 54% of deaths from CVD in this population. In Brazil, cancers were the second cause of death and in 2017 were responsible for 58% of deaths …
Treatment Of Atrial Fibrillation In Preserved Cardiac Function Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) with preserved left ventricular function (pEF) is difficult clinical syndrome to treat effectively with few evidence based therapies. Atrial fibrillation (AF) is now an important co-morbidity being observed in 43% of patients with HFpEF. Rhythm control has not been studied in this population. Catheter ablation and antiarrhythmic …
Effects of Percutaneous Transluminal Renal Angioplasty of Atherosclerotic Renal Artery Stenosis in High-Risk Patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to document a beneficial effect of percutaneous transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis in high-risk patients selected according to the criteria used in the DAN-PTRA study. The main questions the trial aims to answer are if renal artery stenting compared …
PET/CT* vs. Cardiac CT for Detecting Coronary Atherosclerotic Disease [*PET: Positron Emission Tomography; CT: Computed Tomography]
Early detection of coronary atherosclerotic disease facilitates adequate prevention. The purpose of this study is to compare an assessment of coronary atherosclerotic disease burden by positron emission tomography / computed tomography (NaF-PET/CT) with those of conventional and ultra-high-resolution-CT (UHR-CT) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease. For this purpose, the …
A CCTA Imaging Trial to Evaluate the Effect of Obicetrapib/Ezetimibe on Coronary Plaque
This placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, Phase 3 study is being conducted in adult participants with high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled by their maximally tolerated lipid-modifying therapy, to assess the impact of the obicetrapib 10 mg + ezetimibe 10 mg FDC daily on coronary plaque and inflammation …
