Improving Medication Adherence Using Family-focused and Literacy-sensitive Strategies
People with heart failure who do not take their medications as prescribed are at high risk of complications leading to hospitalization, death and poor quality of life. In the proposed intervention, nurses will use easy-to-understand language to coach patients and their care partners to help them work together and build …
Bifurcation PCI With a Hybrid Strategy With Drug Eluting Balloons Versus a Stepwise Provisional Two-stent Strategy
The optimal treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions is complex and remains subject of current research. There is ongoing debate about the optimal strategy for bifurcations with upfront two-stent strategy or provisional one-stent strategy. Current European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines advise a provisional approach with optional stepwise two-stent strategy in …
Metformin for Pulmonary Hypertension HFpEF
The main objective of this study is to determine the clinical efficacy of metformin versus placebo and the therapeutic response with regards to functional capacity and hemodynamics in PH-HFpEF.
Anti-platelet Effect of Berberine in Patients After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The APLABE-PCI is a single-center, randomized, open-label, controlled, dose-escalating, parallel-group study, which is designed to assess the anti-platelet effect of berberine in approximately 64 patients receiving aspirin and clopidogrel who are at \> 8 but ≤ 40 weeks after percutaneous coronary intervention.
Circulating Markers That Underlie the Transition From Compensated Hypertrophy to Heart Failure
The purpose of this research is to determine if two proteins in the blood are increased during acute heart failure. These two proteins are produced when the heart becomes dysfunctional and unable to contract normally. They may then be released into the blood and be detected by standard method in …
Effect of PCSK9 Inhibitors on Coronary Atherosclerotic Plaques Derived From Optical Coherence Tomography
The presence of coronary atherosclerotic vulnerable plaque significantly impacts the clinical outcomes of patients diagnosed with coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the influence of PCSK9 inhibitors on stabilizing coronary atherosclerotic plaques in individuals with early-onset CAD, evaluated through optical coherence tomography (OCT), remains inadequately understood. Moreover, there is a notable …
Treatment of Moderate Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease
This study aims to evaluate the effect of angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) on improving ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR) in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) through a randomized controlled clincial trial.
Validation of the Prognostic Impact of a Retinal Photograph-based Cardiovascular Disease Risk Stratification System in de Novo HFrEF
"Despite significant advances in pharmacologic and device-based therapies, heart failure (HF) remains a major public health burden, with persistently high rates of hospitalization, impaired quality of life, and excess mortality-often exceeding those of leading malignancies. Prognosis in HF is shaped by its underlying etiology: ischemic HF often responds to revascularization …
Impella Reverse Remodeling in End-Stage Heart Failure
This observational study is being done to learn more about heart attack recovery in patients supported with the Impella 5.5 left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as part of their standard of care. There are three stages in this study: screening, treatment and post treatment. There will be two phases of …
Effect of Sacubitril-Valsartan on Cardiac Structure and Function
The purpose of this study is to compare changes in cardiac structure and function, biomarkers, and patient reported outcomes between adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD) randomized to angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI) therapy vs placebo.
