Hypothesis Tissue and serum samples collected from end-stage heart failure patients receiving left ventricular assist device implantation (LVAD) or heart transplantation will provide information regarding the basic science of heart disease. Tissue and serum samples collected from a limited numbers of "healthy controls" (donor grafts that were not utilized for …
Randomized, controlled, unblinded, adaptive design clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of PolyCore (Polydextrin, L-Carnitine, D-xylitol) peritoneal ultrafiltration (PUF) in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).
The goal of this study is to assess if removal of fluid around the lungs (pleural effusion) by a routine procedure called as thoracentesis is helpful to decrease shortness of breath in hospitalized patients with congestive heart failure and have pleural effusion. Researchers will compare thoracentesis with medical therapy to …
This study aims to evaluate the incidence of coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) and its prognostic implication for the improvement of left ventricular function in patients who have been diagnosed with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) caused by non-ischemic etiology.
Diabetes mellitus is among the top 10 causes of death worldwide with an increasing incidence. Patients with diabetes are at risk of developing heart failure which is characterised by significant changes in the heart muscle including scarring and thickening. Contraction of the heart involves movement of calcium across the heart …
Beta-blocker tablets are an effective treatment for heart failure that make people live longer and reduce the need to be admitted to hospital. Many patients who are at high risk of death are prescribed beta-blockers, but later choose to stop taking them because of symptoms that they perceive to be …
To study the safety and efficacy of fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-targeted immunosuppressive chimeric antigen receptor-dendritic cell (CAR-DC) in the treatment of end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy and provide a new method for the treatment of end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy.
This study aims to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of a second administration of fibroblast activation protein (FAP)-targeted immunosuppressive chimeric antigen receptor dendritic cells (CAR-DC) in patients with end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy. Previous clinical research has shown that single-dose CAR-DC therapy is safe and may provide clinical benefit. However, some …
Heart failure (HF) is a significant cause of death and the leading cause of hospitalization in patients over 65 years of age. Congestion is the main source of symptoms and the leading cause of hospitalization for HF. Furthermore, congestive signs identified in asymptomatic patients are associated with the risk of …
In patients with heart failure due to a reversible underlying cause-such as valvular heart disease or coronary artery disease-surgical or procedural correction of the underlying lesion (valve repair/replacement, TAVI, PCI, or CABG) frequently leads to spontaneous recovery of cardiac function, even without neurohormonal modulators. In this clinical setting, a substantial …
