Randomized Comparison of Efficacy and Safety of High-intensity Rosuvastatin/Ezetimibe Combination Versus Treat-to-target Rosuvastatin Monotherapy for Patients With Peripheral Artery or Polyvascular Disease (CARE-PVD Trial)
Patients with atherosclerotic peripheral artery disease often have combined coronary artery disease or cerebral artery disease and show high rates of cardiovascular mortality and morbidities. Therefore, secondary prevention for these patients is of great clinical importance. Currently, Korean, US, and European guidelines recommend different LDL cholesterol target goals in patients …
Coated or Chewable Aspirin and a Hybrid Strategy to Mitigate Adverse Effects of Air Pollution in Stable Atherosclerotic Disease
Although both enteric-coated and plain formulations of aspirin are being used commonly, there are no high-quality comparisons between these formulations with respect to clinical efficacy outcomes in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). Air pollution is also a major contributor to the excess risk of cardiovascular events in many regions …
Integrated Approach in Frail Older People with Atrial Fibrillation
The study will verify if a structured multidisciplinary approach (called iABC), aimed to improve the appropriate management of elderly AF patients with multimorbidity (the i-ABC group), would provide a clear evidence of an improvement in clinical conditions and quality of life compared to usual clinical care. The i-ABC group in …
New Cardiovascular Risk Screening Strategy.
Mortality due to cardiovascular disease (CVD) in Spain accounted for 29% of all deaths (32% in women and 26% in men) in 2017. Out of those, 67% were related to a coronary or a cerebrovascular disease . A key strategy in primary prevention of CVD is to use risk functions …
Promoting Goals-of-Care Discussions for Patients With Memory Problems and Their Caregivers
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve communication among clinicians, patients with memory problems, and their family members. We are testing a way to help clinicians have better conversations to address patients' goals for their healthcare. To do this, we created a simple, short guide called the "Jumpstart …
The North Kynouria Project
The North Kynouria Project was initiated to study cardiovascular/stroke risk factors by employing mass screening and long-term surveillance of an adult population in the municipality of North Kynouria, in the county of Arcadia, Peloponnese, Greece. The North Kynouria Study was initiated to assess modifiable and non-modifiable determinants of cerebrovascular and …
Mitochondrial Function in Peripheral Arterial Disease
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of different treatment strategies on mitochondrial function and to correlate in-vitro results to findings from in-vivo measurements of mitochondrial function. The authors hypothesize that interventional revascularization and therefore the restoration of blood and oxygen supply is more relevant to mitochondrial …
Carnosine for Peripheral Arterial Disease Patients
Oral supplementation of L-carnosine will increase muscle carnosine, stabilize HIF1-alpha promote angiogenesis, and thus improve the functioning of lower extremities in PAD patients.
Passive Stretching in Peripheral Arterial Disease Patients
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) leads to higher mortality rates and strains healthcare systems due to increased costs. It causes leg pain during walking due to reduced blood flow. Nitric oxide (NO) deficiency contributes to vascular issues in PAD, with few effective treatments available. Passive calf muscle stretching boosts NO levels, …
Personalised Multicomponent Exercise Programme in Peripheral Arterial Disease
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is characterised as an atherosclerotic disease, most common in the lower limbs (aortoiliac, femoropopliteal, and infrapopliteal arterial segments), which causes a decrease in blood flow to the areas adjacent to and posterior to the affected area. Intermittent claudication (IC) is the most common symptom in this …
