CPAP on Acute Stroke and OSA
Traditionally, recurrence of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events uses documented mortality, morbidity or hospitalization for heart failure, acute coronary syndrome or stroke as clinical endpoints. Recently, several studies showed that enlarged left atrium (LA) can serve as a predictor for recurrent stroke or cardiovascular events.

Isoleucine Intake and Intermediary Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetes
The primary objective of this study is to determine the mechanism of reduced branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) oxidation to propionyl CoA and isoleucine intake can affect TCA cycle function in obese insulin resistant T2D. We will test the hypotheses that isoleucine and valine oxidation to propionyl CoA is reduced and …

Myocardial Contrast Echocardiography in Septic Patients
Myocardial microcirculatory alterations may be involved in the pathogenesis of acute cardiac dysfunction or septic cardiomyopathy in septic patients. The investigators study the cardiac function (systolic and diastolic) with two-dimensional echocardiography (TTE), and the myocardial microcirculation with contrast echocardiography (MCE) and sulphur hexafluoride microbubbles Sonovue injection in ICU septic patients.

Anti-inflammatory Clarithromycin for Improving COVID-19 Infection Early
Recent information appearing from different countries suggest that treatment of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with hydroxychloroquine or with a combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin has either an indifferent effect on viral replication or substantial cardiotoxicity. This is a clinical trial aiming to prove that addition of oral clarithromycin to treatment …

Assessment of Paravalvular Leak After TAVI by Hemodynamic Measurements and Cardiac MRI
Rationale: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has become the standard therapy for elderly patients with high surgical risks. Paravalvular leakage after TAVI is relatively common and there is conflicting evidence regarding the clinical impact of mild paravalvular leakage in self-expanding devices. Prospective data for self-expanding devices are required to compare …

Prediction of Outcome by Echocardiography in Left Bundle Branch Block
Patients with left bundle branch block have an increased risk for the development of heart-failure and death. However, risk factors for unfavorable outcomes are still poorly defined. This study aims to identify echocardiographic parameters and ECG characteristics by machine learning in order to develop individual risk assessment

Prospective Register on the Etiologies of Cardiogenic Shock and Their Prognosis at One Year.
Cardiogenic shock (CC) is one of the major challenges of current cardiology. Despite the difficulty of establishing a strict and consensual definition, it is accepted that the CC clinically corresponds to persistent hypotension (systolic blood pressure 90 mmHg for at least 30 minutes or need for vasopressor support) associated with …

Heart Failure and Preserved Ejection Fraction: Observation of Its Progression and Prognosis (HOPP-BERN)
Analysis of longitudinal data, cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and health related data, of patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) over a timeframe of 5 years per patient. In this study routine clinical data are collected along with additional research parameters measured during CMR.

Comparison of Cardiac Function Between Left Bundle Branch Pacing and Right Ventricular Outflow Tract Septal Pacing in Pacemaker-dependent Patients
Traditional ventricular pacing site at the apex of right ventricle or septum of right ventricular outflow tractRVOT, causing iatrogenic left bundle branch block and asynchronous ventricular contraction, leading to cardiac remodeling, pacemaker-mediated cardiomyopathy and congestive cardiac failure. Long-term chronic ventricular pacing can lead to changes in endocardial myocytes and myofibrils …
