The Mechanical Characterisation of Human Saphenous and Popliteal Vein
Non-interventional study aiming to ascertain the mechanical properties of human saphenous and popliteal vein tissue.
MRI Guided Management of Occlusive Peripheral Arterial Disease
The goal of this observational study is to identify which plaque lesions in patients with peripheral arterial disease are impenetrable and to determine which devices minimize vessel wall injury. Patients undergoing intervention will have an MRI scan prior to their planned percutaneous vascular intervention to assess the plaque and predict …
Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Associated Cardiovascular Adverse Events in Patients With Cancer
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer treatment and are now approved for various types of cancer. The most common side effects of ICI are immune-related adverse events which can affect any organ or system in the body. Recently, concerns have also risen about cardiovascular effects of ICI. Retrospective studies …
Prediction of Cerebral Hyperperfusion Syndrome After Carotid Revascularization Using Deep Learning
Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) was initially described as a clinical syndrome following carotid endarterectomy (CEA), but it may present in both CEA and carotid artery stenting, and is characterised by throbbing ipsilateral frontotemporal or periorbital headache, and sometimes diffuse headache, eye and face pain, vomiting, confusion, macular oedema, and visual …
Residual Stenosis and Restenosis Following Carotid Endarterectomy With Primary Closure, A Prospective Tracking Study
This prospective, multicenter observational study aims to evaluate the incidence, timing, and characteristics of residual and recurrent (restenosis) carotid artery stenosis following carotid endarterectomy (CEA) with primary closure. Conducted across several neurosurgical centers in the Czech Republic, the study will include patients undergoing elective CEA who meet standard clinical indications. …
Menopause Related Influences on Leukocyte Distribution, Monocyte Function and Platelet Reactivity
Women and men show marked differences in cardiovascular risk profile and outcome. Women experience fewer cardiovascular events than men before menopause, but this relationship seems to reverse at menopause. These disparities are probably due to hormonal factors, especially the female sex hormone estrogen seems to have a protective influence on …

The present study has the following objectives: To investigate the prevalence of INOCA in patients referring for a clinically indicated coronary angiography (CA) c/o Division of Cardiology - Federico II University Hospital; To stratify in INOCA endotypes patients according to the presence or absence of alternative (i.e. non obstructive CAD) …
The Role of Maintaining External Carotid Artery Flow in Graft Interposition After Carotid Endarterectomy
Analyzing results of carotid graft interposition with and without flow preservation through external carotid artery after endarterectomy.
Gut Microbiota in Acute Stroke Patients
This study is to find out the significance of gut-microbiota in acute stroke patients, including their neurological, radiological outcomes as well as their stroke mechanisms.
WARRIOR Ancillary Study for CCTA Analysis
In this study, quantitative characterization of plaque using coronary computed tomographic angiography (CTA) will be used to determine if women who were treated with intensive medical therapy have a greater reduction in the amount and type of cholesterol plaque compared to women receiving usual care and if this results in …
