About this study

Ceramide level as a predictor of outcomes in patients of anterior myocardial infarction undergoing primary Coronary intervention

Read the detailed description

Ceramides are a family of lipid molecules that are found in high concentrations within cell membranes and play a key role in a variety of physiological functions including apoptosis, cell growth, cell adhesion and plasma membrane integrity maintenance.(1)

All tissues can synthesize ceramides de novo from saturated fats and sphingosine.(2) the ( LDL ) Present in atherosclerotic plaque is rich in ceramide and contain 10 - 50 fold higher content of ceramide when compared with plasma LDL .(3)

Ceramide (d18:1/16:0) is associated with the fraction of necrotic core tissue and lipid core burden in coronary atherosclerosis.(4) Previous clinical research found that circulating ceramides are elevated in patients with hypertension,(5) obesity (6 - 7) and type II diabetes mellitus.

Previous clinical research found that elevated ceramide plasma concentrations are associated with coronary plaque vulnerability evaluated by intravascular ultrasound .

virtual Recent studies showed targeted profiling of ceramides predicted short-term and long-term major adverse cardiac events.

Plasma ceramide level is also positively associated with the levels of total cholesterol. [8 - 9] The plasma ceramides that have been studied as high-risk factors are Cer (d18:1/16:0), Cer (d18:1/18:0) and Cer (d18:1/24:1) and the ratios of these ceramides to Cer (d18:1/24:0) [10 - 11].

However, it is tempting to speculate that ceramides are associated with plaque vulnerability as they are known to fuel many central atherosclerosis processes including lipoprotein aggregation and uptake, inflammation, superoxide anion production, andapoptosis 12 - 13 - 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anterior STEMI, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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 1 Oct 2020. 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 Egypt. 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. 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?

Contact esraa RESIDENT sayed (01060558484, esraa.sayed3369@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

to detect early & mid -term MACE complication in anterior STEMI patients undergoing PPCI & their relation with ceramide level in these patients (time frame: BASELINE). 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 NCT04572191, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 1 Oct 2020.
