Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and coronary artery diseases (CAD) are the most common cause of death worldwide. After an acute cardiac event, prevention of new cardiac events is essential and reduces suffering. Group-based cardiac telerehabilitation (CTR) refers to the use of information and communication technologies for rehabilitation purposes in promoting CAD …
Effects of inclisiran + statins vs. statins on the morphology and vascular function of coronary vulnerable plaques, in order to provide a better treatment and more detailed imaging basis for the treatment of coronary vulnerable plaques.
This study is a multicenter, retrospective imaging study. The study intends to retrospectively enroll patients with acute myocardial infarction who had received coronary CTA in a certain time-window before this event. All coronary CTA will be analyzed by anatomic, functional and radiomic analysis, assisted by artificial intelligence. The purpose of …
Two strategies have both proven to be effective in reducing bleeding complications while preserving efficacy compared with maintaining long-term DAPT with aspirin and a potent P2Y12 inhibitor: a) DAPT de-escalation (i.e., switching from prasugrel or ticagrelor to clopidogrel while maintaining aspirin) and b) potent P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy (i.e., maintaining prasugrel …
Over the past three decades, coronary stent struts have been made progressively thinner. Thin strut drug-eluting stents (DES) performed better than their thicker counterparts in a recent study. Thinner struts discourage abnormal coronary flow after implantation and associated with greater flexibility, deliverability and better clinical outcomes. Lower strut thickness may …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether disclosure of a polygenic risk score for coronary artery disease (CAD PRS) influences cardiovascular health and risk factor modification over one year among adults aged 30-75 years in the Mass General Brigham primary care network who are not currently taking …
This prospective, multicenter observational cohort study aims to investigate changes in target lesion hemodynamic parameters, diameter stenosis, plaque characteristics of CCTA before and after the DCB procedure and evaluate their association with clinical outcomes.
This is an investigator-driven prospective, multicentric, international, randomized clinical study, in an open-label randomized fashion, where patients with bifurcation coronary artery disease (Medina: 111,101,011,001) in vessels with diameter \>2.0 (visual estimation) and with a clinical indication to PCI, will be enrolled. After successful predilatation (with any tool deemed useful), patients …
Chronic total occlusion (CTO) remains one of the most challenging lesions in coronary artery disease management. Percutaneous coronary intervention using drug-eluting stents is currently a standard treatment approach; however, drug-coated balloon angioplasty has emerged as a potential alternative strategy. This study aims to compare the clinical and angiographic outcomes of …
Coronary artery disease (CAD) significantly increases mortality rates in both developed and developing countries. In this condition, the impairment of arterial blood circulation leads to insufficient blood supply to the myocardium during both rest and exercise, resulting in symptoms such as angina pectoris, dyspnea, and fatigue. Patients, particularly due to …
