Effect of Raised Head of the Bed on Lying Blood Pressure in Autonomic Failure
Many persons with autonomic failure often have high blood pressure when lying down (supine hypertension). This study is exploring the impact of decreased venous return to the heart (achieved by raising the head of the bed) to lessen supine blood pressure. If decreased venous return to the heart is effective …
Effect of IOP Lowering on Progressive HM
Currently, whether and when intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering medication should be used in progressive high myopia (HM) to control axial elongation is still a dilemma. Randomized trials are required to evaluate whether IOP lowering influences the growth of axial length in progressive HM eyes.
PETAL Trial: Impact of Gallium-68 Pentixafor PET-CT on Surgical Outcomes in Primary Aldosteronism
This study is a randomized controlled trial to assess the clinical utility of gallium-68 pentixafor PET/CT in the management of primary aldosteronism (PA). We aim to evaluate whether the addition of 68Ga-pentixafor PET/CT to standard adrenal venous sampling (AVS) improves surgical outcomes in patients with unilateral PA.
Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty in Ethnic Chinese Population
The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) in ethnic Chinese participants with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG), Ocular Hypertension (OHT), or Normal Tension Glaucoma (NTG).
Developing and Testing a Model to Identify Preventive Vision Loss Among Older Patients in General Practice
In this cohort study, the investigators will test vision screenings in Danish general practice for patients over 70 years of age with minimum one chronic condition. The main outcome is detection of vision impairment and secondary outcome is detection of conditions needing ophthalmologic follow-up but not presenting vision impairment at …
Portal Inflow Modulation Prior to Liver Transplantation in Patients With Increased Risk of Intraoperative Blood Loss
Liver transplantation is a procedure associated with an exceptionally high risk of blood loss. Liver failure, which is the most common indication for transplantation, not only leads to coagulation disorders but also to the development of portal hypertension. As a result, collateral circulation forms within the abdominal venous system, significantly …
CARPEUS : Effect of Carvedilol on the Portosystemic Gradient as Measured by Endoscopic Ultrasound
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy after one month of treatment with Carvedilol (12.5 mg daily) in primary prophylaxis of digestive haemorrhage due to portal hypertension in cirrhosis, by endoscopic ultrasound-guided portal pressure gradient measurement.
Blood Pressure Reduction in Patients With Asymptomatic Aortic VALVE Stenosis
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of strict blood pressure control versus conventional care in patients with asymptomatic moderate to severe aortic valve stenosis. The study is a randomized (1:1), open label, controlled intervention trial. Hypothesis Strict BP control for 12 months reduces the progression of …
Identifying Right Ventricular Dysfunction in COPD Through Right Heart Catheterization, Imaging and Exercise
This study plans to learn more about heart function among individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In particular, the investigators want to understand the different patterns of right ventricular response to pulmonary hypertension (high pressure in the lungs) during rest and exercise. By identifying patterns of right ventricular dysfunction, …
To Understand the Self-care Ability of Farmers and Fishermen With CMDs (Hypertension, Heart Disease, Hyperlipidemia, Type 2 Diabetes), Whether They Are Aware of CMDs, Their Treatment Status, Treatment Effectiveness, and Their Ability to Describe Known and Practice the Self-care Content of CMDs.
This project will be based on nursing scholar Dorothea Orem's self-care theory, integrating the concept of the [life essential 8, LE8] proposed by the American Heart Association, as well as our team's recent research findings. We aim to develop educational materials and tools tailored for this group, termed [Self-Care Eight …
