Advice of Moderate Drinking Pattern Versus Advice on Abstention on Major Disease and Mortality
The goal of this clinical trial is to test two advices on alcohol drinking in more than 10.000 Spanish adult drinkers (men of 50 or more years and women of 55 or more years). The main question it aims to answer is to test the non-inferiority advice of a moderate …
Screening for Asymptomatic Coronary Artery Disease in Kidney Transplant Candidates
The Canadian Australasian Randomized Trial of Screening Kidney Transplant Candidates for Coronary Artery Disease (CARSK) will test the hypothesis that eliminating the regular use of non-invasive screening tests for CAD AFTER waitlist activation is not inferior to regular (i.e., annual) screening for CAD during wait-listing for the prevention of Major …
A Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Trial to Investigate the Value of Coronary CT Angiography in the Understanding and Management of Coronary Calcium (The Optimal Trial)
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 …
Metabolic Syndrome in Diabetic Smokers Using Cigarettes & Combustion-Free Nicotine Delivery Systems
Very little is known about the impact of combustion-free nicotine delivery systems (C-F NDS) on cardiovascular risk factors in T2DM patients who smoke. Data from clinical studies to identify any potential reduction in individuals' risk, relative to the risk of continued smoking, are needed. This study aims to test the …
Predictive Value of Glycemic Parameters Measured With the FSL Pro iQ During ACS
Disorders of glycemic regulation are common in patients hospitalized for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Abnormal glycaemia is observed in 50% of cases, in 30-40% diabetes, and in 25-35% fasting hyperglycaemia or glucose intolerance. Hyperglycemia is a major prognostic factor in ACS, with admission hyperglycemia having independent prognostic value for both …
Smartphone Twelve-Lead ECG Utility In ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction II
AliveCor (www.alivecor.com) has developed several electrocardiogram (ECG) devices that interface with iOS and Android smartphones and tablets via various Kardia apps. The current Kardia family of devices can measure single lead and six limb-lead ECGs, depending on the device. KardiaMobile, KardiaMobile 6L, and KardiaMobile Card have FDA clearance for ECG …
Stroke Prophylaxis With Apixaban in Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 5 Patients With Atrial Fibrillation
Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of apixaban as stroke prophylaxis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 and atrial fibrillation (AF) with or without dialysis treatment. The study hypothesis is that compared to no anticoagulation, apixaban reduces the incidence of ischemic stroke without causing an unacceptable …
Comprehensive Management of High-risk PopuLatIon of Stroke Based on Social Network
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of social network in improving drug compliance and risk factors control rate of stroke high-risk population after discharge.
Determining Efficacy of an Artificial Intelligence-based System for Heart Failure Detection Through Interpretation of Electrocardiograms (DECISION)
The DECISION trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered system, Willem™, for improving the detection of heart failure (HF) in primary care settings by interpreting electrocardiograms (ECGs). The study seeks to answer whether AI-assisted ECG interpretation enhances diagnostic accuracy and clinical outcomes compared to standard ECG …
Intervention for High-normal Blood Pressure in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes
Lowering of blood pressure (BP) in high-risk hypertensive individuals reduces major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Diabetic patients with hypertension benefit from BP lowering treatment. The present trial, IPAD in brief, is a randomized, open-label, parallel-designed, multicenter study involving nearly 12,000 patients to be recruited and to be followed up …
