Resting Full-cycle Flow Ratio (RFR) Versus Angiography to Guide Revascularization Strategy in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery By-pass Grafting (CABG)
Different trials have shown that fractional flow reserve (FFR) could successfully guide revascularization in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). It is conceivable that a similar revascularization guidance could be useful also for surgical revascularization i.e. coronary by-pass graft (CABG). Experience learns that grafts placed on vessels with hemodynamically non-significant …
Optimal Stent Deployment Strategy of Contemporary Stents
The primary objective is to evaluate whether a standard pre- and postdilatation (PSP strategy) of the modern DES results in a more optimal stent implantation compared to DS as evaluated by OCT in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The secondary clinical objective is to evaluate clinical cardiovascular outcomes in …
CABG Based on CT-FFR Versus Conventional Coronary Angiography
The aims of study are (1) to compare early and 1-year graft patency rates in patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) based on conventional coronary angiography(CAG) versus cardiac computed tomography(CT)-derived fractional flow reserve(FFR), and (2) to demonstrate difference in clinical outcomes between the 2 groups.
Liquid Biopsy System Intracoronary Blood Sampling and Analysis to Characterise Disease Biomarkers in Patients With Coronary Disease
The aim of this research, proposed and funded by PlaqueTec and co-ordinated by Papworth Trials Unit Collaboration, is to demonstrate the performance of the coronary artery blood sampling device (Liquid Biospy System, LBS) and establish its usefulness to collect a range of disease biomolecules from the coronary artery of interest. …
MAIN-IMAGE Registry
All comers registry with patients with chronic coronary syndrome or acute coronary syndrome who underwent intracoronary imaging during cardiac catherization. The aim is to identify plaque characteristics on OCT or IVUS that are associated with adverse cardiac events including myocardial infarction and atherosclerotic progression.
Vascular Senescence and Atherosclerotic Plaque Vulnerability
Chronological aging significantly contributes to structural and functional alterations in the vasculature, making it a major risk factor for atherosclerotic disease and its acute thrombotic events. DNA damage, including telomeric, non-telomeric, and mitochondrial damage, is recognized as a key initiator of vascular aging and atherogenesis. There is abundant evidence indicating …
Efficacy of LoDoCo in Improving Exercise Capacity Among Patients With HFpEF and Inflammation
The purpose of this research study is to determine the effectiveness of low dose colchicine (LoDoCo) on measures of exercise capacity, physical function, frailty, and quality of life, among patients with heart failure with chronic stable preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and systemic inflammation. The use of LoDoCo in this study …
Effects of Low-dose Ticagrelor vs. Clopidogrel in Stable Patients Undergoing Elective Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
The proposed study aims to assess the antiplatelet effects of more potent oral P2Y12 inhibition with low-dose ticagrelor (60 mg bid) compared with standard of care clopidogrel in patients with a high ABCD-GENE score (≥10). We hypothesize that ticagrelor is associated with better pharmacodynamic effects (i.e., lower platelet reactivity and …
Latvian Early Atherosclerosis Registry
Atherosclerosis and its complications are a global problem. There are several widely known and proven risk factors that promotes atherogenesis in the majority of patients. However, significant proportion of apparently healthy and young patients with cardiovascular disease but yet without recognized atherogenesis promoting risk factors can be observed in clinical …
Etomidate Versus Propofol in CABG Surgery
The objective of this single-blinded randomized controlled interventional clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and long-term safety of etomidate compared to propofol as an anesthesia induction agent in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The primary aim of this study is to determine whether patients receiving …
