About this study

Official title: Effects of Ischemic Postconditioning on Expression of Apoptosis-related MicroRNAs and Genes in Human Double Valve Replacement

  1. Cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest could regulate expression of microRNAs in patients undergoing double valve replacement (aortic and mitral).
  2. The modulation of myocardial microRNAs by cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest may be rescued by ischemic postconditioning.
  3. Downstream effectors would also be affected.
Being tested
ischemic postconditioning, double valve replacement, heart-lung machine, Aortic cross-clamp

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ischemic postconditioningProcedure or surgery

    multiple brief ischemic-reperfusion episodes immediately after sustained ischemic insult

    Postconditioning was started at 30 s after aortic cross declamping, and the aorta was re-clamped for 30 s rendering global myocardial ischemia. Meanwhile aortic root suction was established during aortic re-clamping, and thereafter, the aortic clamp was released for 30 s for full myocardial reperfusion. The cycle was repeated three times after cardioplegic arrest.

  • double valve replacementProcedure or surgery

    The double valve replacement is a procedure in which surgery is used to replace diseased aortic and mitral heart valves.

  • heart-lung machineDevice

    The heart-lung machine is commonly used in open heart surgery including double valve replacement to support the circulation during the operation.

  • Aortic cross-clampDevice

    a surgical instrument used in cardiac surgery to clamp the aorta

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from Baseline in Cardiac MicroRNA Expression

    Samples were harvested from all the patients, respectively, before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping. Real-time quantitative stem-loop reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay was performed to detect the expression of microRNAs.

    Measured: before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change from Baseline in Downstream Gene Expression

    Expressions of messenger RNAs and proteins were quantified for genes which are regulated by above-detected microRNAs.

    Measured: before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ischemic postconditioning, double valve replacement and heart-lung machine in people with Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Ischemic Postconditioning, run by Central South University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from Baseline in Cardiac MicroRNA Expression (time frame: before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01804283, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Mar 2013.
