Effects of a Healthy Nordic Diet on Atherosclerosis in Patients with Coronary Heart Disease
Diet can play a key role in atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease (CHD), but little interventional data exists, and the mediators of possible anti-atherosclerotic effects of diet are unclear. The investigators will investigate if a healthy Nordic diet (HND) reduces plaque volume, coronary artery calcification (CAC), and plaque inflammation (FAI) …
Algae Effects in Markers of Cardiovascular Risk and Gut Microbiome
The Western diet, rich in fat and sugar, contributes to cardiovascular risk and alters the body metabolism, specifically through the modulation of the microbiome. Microbiome is considered the "second genome", functioning as an endocrine-like organ. Gut microbiota-derived metabolites, namely trimethylamine- N-oxide and short-chain fatty acids have been associated with atherosclerosis, …
Pharmacy-led Transitions of Care Intervention to Improve Medication Adherence
Socioeconomically disadvantaged populations with multiple chronic conditions have high rates of nonadherence to essential chronic disease medications after hospital discharge. Medication nonadherence after hospital discharge is significantly associated with increased mortality and higher rates of readmissions and costs among these patients. Major patient-reported barriers to essential medication use after hospital …
The Physical Activity Post Myocardial Infarction SWEDEHEART Prospective Cohort Study
The association between objectively measured physical activity intensities (light, moderate and vigorous), sedentary time and clinical outcomes has not been clarified in patients after a myocardial infarction. The overall objective of the study is to explore associations between accelerometer measured physical activity and clinical outcomes after a myocardial infarction. Moreover, …
Effects of Physical Activity, Ambulatory Blood Pressure and Calcium Score on Cardiovascular Health in Normal People
A prospective cohort of relatively healthy individuals, using comprehensive clinical information, advanced imaging (including cardiac MRI), cardiovascular exercise physiology, metabolomics and genetic analysis. These findings will be correlated with adverse clinical outcomes including death, stroke and myocardial infarction. In selected cases, follow-up imaging and biomarker samples will also be obtained. …
Optimize Risk Prediction After Myocardial Infarction: The ORACLE Study
Background. Myocardial infarction (MI) is a leading cause of death worldwide. After MI, longterm antithrombotic therapy is crucial to prevent recurrent events, but increases bleeding, that also impacts morbidity and mortality. Giving these competing risks prediction tools to forecast ischemic and bleeding are of paramount importance to inform clinical decisions, …
Emulation of Randomized Clinical Trial in Cardiovascular Disease
Investigators are building an empirical evidence base for real world data through large-scale replication of randomized controlled trials. The investigators' goal is to understand for what types of clinical questions real world data analyses can be conducted with confidence and how to implement such studies.
Myocardial Infarction in the Elderly
An observational registry study of patients aged 75 years and older with an established diagnosis of myocardial infarction, initiated in 2020, with an assessment of clinical, instrumental, demographic and prognostic data. Statistical analysis was performed using the StatTech v. 4.5.0 program (developer - StatTech LLC, Russia). Differences were considered statistically …
Establishing the Incidence of Tako-tsubo Cardiomyopathy in Scotland
Acute stress-induced (Takotsubo cardiomyopathy) presents like a heart attack and is triggered by intense emotional or physical stress. Although coronary arteries are unobstructed, it has been suggested that the risk of death is similar to a myocardial infarction. The purpose of the STARR study is to identify all cases of …
Vascular Events In Patients Undergoing Same-day Noncardiac Surgery (VALIANCE) Study
The proportion of noncardiac surgeries performed as same-day surgery is increasing worldwide, with more complex surgeries being performed on higher risk patients in the outpatient setting. Little is known on the risk factors, incidence and prognosis of patients undergoing same-day noncardiac surgery. The main objective of this study is to …
