The Norwegian Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection Study (NOR-SCAD) is a national, multicenter prospective observational study conducted at major hospitals in Norway. The study investigates risk factors and complications of spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD). Patients aged 18 years or older who are hospitalized with SCAD are recruited during the index …
'Heart attack', known as acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, is a leading cause of heart failure and death. A lack of blood and oxygen damages the heart muscle potentially causing heart failure and premature death. During the past 25 years, despite intensive research efforts, few, if any new medicines have …
Cardiogenic shock is the most severe manifestation of acute heart failure and remains the leading cause of death in patients hospitalised with acute myocardial infarction. Cardiogenic shock is a well-known and potent trigger of the immune response, ischemia/reperfusion organ damage, hemolysis and release of free hemoglobin. The activation of immune …
FAME-n aims to improve perinatal care by introducing new approaches to fetal and neonatal heart assessment. Better identification of high-risk deliveries requiring intervention will reduce perinatal asphyxia-related illness and death. Neonatal hemodynamics may be improved by early detection of instability of the heart and circulation. Innovative use of technology enables …
This study investigates the impact of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) on the composition and function of the gut microbiota in patients with severe aortic valve stenosis. The improvement in haemodynamics following TAVI may positively influence gut microbial balance by increasing splanchnic perfusion and reducing intestinal congestion. A total of …
Many control mechanisms exist which successfully match the supply of blood with the metabolic demand of various tissues under wide-ranging conditions. One primary regulator of vasomotion and thus perfusion to the muscle tissue is the host of chemical factors originating from the vascular endothelium and the muscle tissue, which collectively …
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer treatment and are now approved for various types of cancer. The most common side effects of ICI are immune-related adverse events which can affect any organ or system in the body. Recently, concerns have also risen about cardiovascular effects of ICI. Retrospective studies …
This study will demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Edwards Lifesciences SAPIEN 3/SAPIEN 3 Ultra RESILIA Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) Systems in subjects with a dysfunctional right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) conduit or previously implanted valve in the pulmonic position with a clinical indication for intervention.
The adaptive immune response plays an important role in myocardial healing and remodeling after acute myocardial infarction in patients. Therefore, the involved lymphocytes represent a novel target for therapeutic interventions. However, there are no established blood-derived biomarkers to predict the quantity and quality of the adaptive immune response to cardiac …
RESTORE is a randomized clinical trial investigating the safety and feasibility of using EEG treatment targets (burst suppression vs. seizure suppression) for post-cardiac arrest refractory status epilepticus treatment.
