Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a major cause of morbidity, disability, mortality, and health expenditures worldwide. A wealth of studies has demonstrated that people of South Asian ancestry have a higher risk of CHD and particularly premature CHD than most other racial/ethnic groups, and recent research suggests that this risk …
This study is part of a nationwide research project in China that aims to better understand how coronary artery disease develops and progresses in young adults. The study will enroll approximately 10,000 participants aged 45 years or younger who undergo coronary CT scans at multiple hospitals across China. Information collected …
The Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS) is a unique, large-scale national research initiative involving 30,000 randomly selected individuals aged 50-64, recruited between 2014 and 2018. The study is a collaborative effort among six university hospitals across Sweden. A follow-up study, SCAPIS 2, is conducted for half of the original participants. …
The multicenter Cardiology Monitoring Platform registry (mCMP-registry) is a prospective observational registry including multi-omics (diagnostic) measurements performed as part of routine clinical care, bio-banking (optional), and yearly questionnaires (optional). It's objective is to optimize (early) diagnosis and risk-stratification of (early) cardiovascular diseases, specifically cardiomyopathy phenotypes, arrhythmias, and coronary artery disease, …
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) provides high-resolution imaging of coronary artery disease (CAD), revealing stenosis, plaque characteristics, and hemodynamic markers like CT-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR), axial plaque stress (APS), and wall shear stress (WSS). However, CTA alone has limitations in evaluating the functional significance of lesions, especially in cases …
The goal of this 2x2 factorial clinical trial is to test the efficacy of i) colchicine, and ii) thiamine in heart failure (HF) secondary to ischemic heart disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does colchicine reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) death, a HF event, or an …
Cardiac rehabilitation is a medically recommended program for patients with certain heart conditions. It includes exercise training, health education, and counseling. Unfortunately, many patients do not participate in cardiac rehabilitation. Some find it challenging to attend the in-person sessions. This study aims to compare two methods of delivering cardiac rehabilitation: …
Systematic metabolic diseases are closely related to prevalence and progression of atherosclerosis. This prospective cohort consecutively enrolls patients with coronary artery disease compliacted with metabolic abnormalities such as diabtetes, prediabetes, obesity, chronic kidney disease and hyperuricemia.
The OPTIMAL randomized clinical trial has been designed to compare two imaging strategies and to test the hypothesis that a calcium modification strategy informed by coronary CT angiography (CCTA) will improve procedural efficiency and effectiveness compared with the current standard of care (IVUS-guided PCI) while achieving similar clinical outcomes in …
The primary aim is to perform the largest study worldwide to evaluate novel biochemical and electrocardiographic signatures alone as well as in combination with the standard 12-lead exercise ECG in the detection of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia (diagnostic endpoint). The secondary aim is to evaluate these innovative tools in the risk …
