The heart is a pump that must both fill and empty effectively to move blood; if it cannot move enough, heart failure may ensue. Approximately half of all adults living with heart failure have a form where the heart stiffens, which impairs its ability to fill. This form of heart …
The goal of this observational study is to evaluating myocardial stiffness in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) by intrinsic wave velocity propagation (IVP). The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether myocardial stiffness assessed by IVP in patients with HFpEF Increased. Whether IVP is related …
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ex vivo machine perfusion with staged implantation of kidney allografts during combined heart/kidney transplantation.
The Investigators will create a clinical database and a Biobank of stem cells derived from the blood of participants with cardiovascular disease. The Investigators will recruit participants from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds with equal representation from both sexes. The Investigators expect to create stem cells and analyze the blood …
Heart failure is a world epidemic. LVADs are increasingly used as they have demonstrated improved survival rates compared to optimal medical management. Improving outcomes have been seen with the newer LVAD technology, the HeartMate 3 (Abbott, Chicago, IL), however, hemocompatibility related adverse events, including thrombosis and bleeding, are still a …
Single-center, double-blind, randomized, controlled intervention study of the effect of correction of bacterial overgrowth syndrome in the small intestine (SIBO) on cardiac function in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) (SIBO-HFpEF). The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rifaximin in patients …
A cohort study on patients with type 2 diabetes to investigate possible biomarkers as predictors of chronic heart failure.
The primary objective is to investigate the association between temporal evolutions of blood biomarkers and clinical adverse events, in order to produce a dynamic, individual, and accurate prediction model for patients with HFpEF. Moreover several secondary objectives will be investigated.
In patients with ESRD, up to 20% of patients suffer from HFrEF, leading to significant CV morbidity and mortality. Several drug classes that provide survival benefits for patients with HFrEF, including SGLT2i, lack data regarding their efficacy and safety in patients under chronic hemodialysis. As the primary target of SGLT2i …
To evaluate the effect of CS reducer implantation in patients with HFPEF and CMD on myocardial ischemia, measured by stress myocardial perfusion using cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR)
