Advances in surgical and medical care have led to improved outcomes in patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). As a consequence, the majority of patients nowadays survives to adulthood (adults with CHD, that is, adult CHD \[ACHD\]) with good quality of life. Despite the surgical success, the morbidity and mortality …
Valvular heart disease (VHD) is a leading cause of loss of physical function, reduced quality of life and increased longevity.The epidemiology of VHD varies widely across the globe, with functional and degenerative diseases occurring predominantly in high-income countries and rheumatic heart disease occurring predominantly in low- and middle-income countries. The …
The aim of this retrospective and prospective single-center observational study is to evaluate the correct management of adult patients with congenital heart diseas (ACHD), based on the experience of a reference center such as the Institute of Pediatric Cardiology at Policlinico Sant'Orsola Malpighi. The patients participating in this study will …
The objective of this study is to evaluate and predict the progression of moderate cardiac valve stenosis and regurgitation using clinical, biological, echocardiographic, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. Additionally, the study aims to analyze the potential impact of device-based interventions, pharmacological therapy, and lifestyle modifications on …
Exercise echocardiography is a widely used non-invasive test that evaluates cardiac structure and function during physical stress. It provides important information on myocardial ischemia, cardiac performance, hemodynamic responses, and exercise capacity in patients with a broad range of heart diseases. However, real-world prospective data integrating exercise echocardiographic findings across both …
In a prospective cohort study (n = 1.000), the investigators aim to investigate the correlation between cardiac biomarkers and advanced echocardiography and determine whether these are prognostic markers of heart disease in patients suffering from psoriasis.
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 …
Intensive lipid-lowering therapy is a cornerstone treatment for coronary heart disease (CHD). However, coronary plaque progression persists in a subset of patients even under intensive lipid-lowering therapy, which may be associated with residual lipid and inflammatory risks. Current research in this area remains largely confined to post hoc analyses of …
The study is conducted in participants with Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM), a heart disease that occurs in people with the disease ATTR amyloidosis. The purpose of this study is to see how radioactively labelled coramitug is taken up by the heart after administration through an infusion (Cohort 1), and to …
