Left internal thoracic artery (LITA) has been acknowledged as the first graft of choice for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, it is still not conclusive which one is the best second graft of choice among right internal thoracic artery, radial artery, right gastroepiploic artery, saphenous vein, and etc., as …
Traditionally, the severity of a blockage (stenosis) in a coronary artery has been determined by visual angiographic assessment of the diameter of the artery at the level of a blockage compared to a normal healthy area of the same artery. With the advent of invasive physiological testing to assess coronary …
Percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is intended to relieve myocardial ischemia by improving blood flow in the epicardial coronary arteries. However, the efficacy of PCI may be compromised by incidental microvascular obstruction and peri-procedural myocardial infarction (PPMI), which occurs in about 10-15% of cases and is associated with increased rates of …
The STICH-SWEDEHEART trial will compare PCI vs CABG for revascularization of patients with HF and LV systolic dysfunction (LV ejection fraction (LVEF) \<40%) and multi-vessel coronary artery disease.
Open-label, randomized, cross-over study conducted in a single center, applied to patients receiving a polypill with 100 mg of acetyl salicylic acid and different doses of ramipril and atorvastatin for indication of secondary prevention according to clinical practice, with objective of analyzing the level of systolic blood pressure and LDL-cholesterol …
CONCORD is a prospective observational study evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) and computed tomography with fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR) in patients with suspected coronary artery disease, using invasive fractional flow reserve (FFR) as the reference standard.
The purpose of this study is to understand if breathing muscle training combined with cardiac rehabilitation influences the blood flow and blood pressure response during exercise.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the complimentary information of anatomy, perfusion and viability of PET and MR. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: to compare perfusion and anatomy measurements and perfusion related signals from PET and MR imaging and estimate its prognostic values. to …
Olive extracts are considered to have antioxidant properties. The investigators will study the effect of olive extracts containing hydroxytyrosol (HT)-olivomed and combination of Oleuropein (OL), Hydroxytyrosol (HT), Oleocanthal (OC) - olivomedSmart on endothelial, cardiac and vascular function in patients with coronary artery disease .
This study aims to compare late-lumen loss (LLL) between DCB and DES to treat de novo coronary artery stenosis by intravascular ultrasound (IVUS).
