FGF23 and Cardiovascular Damage in Anemia With an Without Chronic Kidney Disease.
Anemia is associated with cardiovascular disease. Iron deficiency is usually induced in chronic kidney disease (CKD). In clinical studies, an inverse association between serum levels of iron and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a cardiovascular risk factor, has been demonstrated. In addition, a number of the I.V. iron presentations mostly …
The Role of Glycocalyx Integrity in the Primary Prevention of Major Cardiovascular Events
The researchers intend to recruit individuals who are referred for a routine screening in the primary prevention outpatient clinic of Attikon University hospital, Athens According to institutional protocols, a detailed medical history for atherosclerotic risk factors and current medication is recorded and a baseline clinical examination is performed. Moreover fasting …
The Impact of Propofol and Ketamine on Cardiovascular Collapse During Induction for Intubation
This prospective observational study evaluates the impact of propofol and ketamine on the risk of cardiovascular collapse during induction for endotracheal intubation in critically ill patients. Induction agents play a crucial role in managing hemodynamic stability, particularly in this vulnerable population. Propofol, known for its vasodilatory and myocardial depressant effects, …
Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviours in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis
A review of the literature did not identify any studies that assessed knowledge of cardiovascular disease risk factors and healthy lifestyle behaviours in patients with ankylosing spondylitis. The aim of this study is to assess knowledge of cardiovascular disease risk factors, healthy lifestyle behaviours and physical activity levels in patients …
An Evaluation of the KCCQ Score in Predicting Cardiovascular Risk in Dialysis Patients
Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is the main complication and the most important cause of death in CKD patients. As the disease progresses, the incidence of cardiovascular disease in CKD patients gradually increases, especially in End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients receiving dialysis treatment, where the prevalence of cardiovascular disease reaches its highest …
Identifying Biological Markers of Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Aortic Stenosis or TAVI
Aortic stenosis, a common cardiovascular disease, is pathophysiologically associated with a chronic inflammatory myocardial reaction and fibrosis leading to cardiac dysfunction and impaired coronary perfusion. These elements may precede the onset of symptoms. The assessment of inflammatory and fibrosis factors (in particular by means of biomarkers) in patients with aortic …
PRimary IndividualiZed Evaluation of Cardiovascular Events in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus Using hemoTAG
To evaluate the proportion of diabetic mellitus patients with CV events as measured by HEMOTAG.
Long Term Cardiovascular Disease Event Risk for Patients Undergoing Major Non-Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether the healthy lifestyle choices made around surgery can influence an individual's long term risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Patients will be observed 1-month prior to and 3-months following surgery to assess their risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Prevent CardioKids
The aim of Prevent CardioKids is to evaluate to what extend disturbed vascular function markers are already present in children of different weight categories and whether these are age dependent. Also differences - and relationships - between vascular function measurements and plasma biomarkers between lean and overweight/obese children will be …
Structural Conditions and Health After Release From Prison
People released from prison experience two times higher cardiovascular (CV) mortality than the general population, have a high prevalence of poor CV health and increased risk of CV events within 2 years of release. Access to high quality healthcare following release from prison is key to preventing poor health and …
