Pre-discharge Influenza Vaccination in Patients Hospitalized for Acute Cardiac Conditions
Patients hospitalized for acute cardiac conditions-including acute myocardial infarction, acute heart failure, pulmonary embolism, arrhythmias, and hypertensive emergencies-represent a heterogeneous population at very high risk of recurrent cardiovascular events. Influenza infection may act as a trigger for adverse cardiovascular events. Given the persistently low influenza vaccination uptake despite evidence-based benefits …
Mini-Crush Or Controlled Balloon-Crush For True Coronary Bifurcation Lesions
The mini-crush technique is one of the leading 2-stent techniques frequently applied by interventional cardiologists to treat complex bifurcation lesions. In the last 20 years, many technical innovations and iterations of mini-crush technique have been developed, and it maintains its popularity among invasive cardiologists. Moreover, mini-crush and double kissing-crush techniques …
The Effect of Sodium Glucose Co-trnasportert Type 2 Inhibitors on Arterial Stiffness, Endothelial Glycocalyx Thickness and Cardiac Deformation After Acute Myocardial Infarction
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) remains one of the leading causes of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. It most commonly occurs due to acute coronary artery occlusion following rupture or erosion of an atherosclerotic plaque and subsequent thrombus formation. Despite significant advances in reperfusion strategies and guideline-directed pharmacological therapy, patients who …
Diffusion MRI in Heart Failure
The development of symptomatic heart failure is frequently preceded by a pre-clinical period of structural remodeling in the heart. The remodeling process driving this transition, however, remains poorly understood. The investigators hypothesize that imaging the diffusion of water in the heart with MRI will allow its microstructure to be resolved. …
Machine Learning for Diagnosis of Occlusive MI in LBBB Patients
This study investigates a new way to diagnose severe heart attacks in patients who have a specific electrical heart pattern called a Left Bundle Branch Block (LBBB). When patients present to the emergency department with chest pain, doctors routinely perform an electrocardiogram (ECG) to check for a heart attack. However, …
Routine Validation and Reproducibility Testing of Laboratory Assays and Research Techniques Used for Endocrine, Cardiometabolic, and Musculoskeletal Disorder Research (VALD)
The purpose of this research study is to validate (check the accuracy of) laboratory assays, intravenous catheter insertion, and equipment or devices and their reproducibility, which is necessary to perform high quality research on chronic diseases, nutrition, and metabolism (the process by which a substance is handled in the body) …
Improving Cardiac Rehabilitation Exercise Using Target Heart Rate Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two types of exercise prescriptions in cardiac rehabilitation eligible older adults (60 years or older) with heart disease. The investigators found in a single site pilot trial (insert NCTxxx) that one exercise prescription was better and are now repeating this study …
Pleiotropic Effects of Dapagliflozin in Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is one of the most important risk factors for atherosclerotic heart disease. Strategies focused solely on glycemic control have failed to demonstrate vascular events reduction in this population. On the other hand, new antidiabetic drugs recently have demonstrated significant decrease of cardiovascular mortality, raising the …
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, …
Integration of Telemedicine and Home-Based Cardiac Rehabilitation: Feasibility, Efficacy, and Adherence
The aim of this study is to evaluate feasibility, efficacy, and adherence of home-based cardiac rehabilitation with the integration of telemedicine. Several components will be assessed such as quality-of-life, nutritional counseling, maximum metabolic activity (MET's), diabetic management, tobacco cessation, lipid, blood pressure, and psychosocial management. These tasks will be accomplished …
