About this study

Official title: Determining the Cardiovascular Risk Factors Affecting the Age of First Acute Coronary Syndromes

The study aimed to evaluate the association between the obesity grade and the age of the first acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The effect of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors and the age of first ACS in patients with severe obesity was also examined. Consecutive patients with diagnosis of first episode of ACS were prospectively enrolled in 2014 to 2024.Cardiovascular risks of patients will be determined according to clinical and laboratory evaluation and patients were categorized by their body mass indices (BMI). Independent variables that effected the age of first ACS were examined by linear regression analysis

Read the detailed description

In the first stage, the first ACS diagnosis of the patients will be tried to be clarified. It will be tried to clarify whether the patients have had ACS before, according to their history, ecg echo and coronary angiography findings. Patients with previous ACS or uncertain ACS diagnosis will not be included in the study.

In the second stage, cardiovascular risk burdens of patients for whom the initial ACS diagnosis is clear will be revealed. Smoking, diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HT), psychological stress, socio-economic status, migration history, cholesterol parameters will be determined. The duration and severity of these risk factors will be determined. In the final model, each risk factor will be examined in detail with its sub-tabs and the effect of each risk factor will be examined separately.

Eventually, a model will be developed that allows predicting the first ACS age. The shortcomings of this model and the narrow scope of the definition of the population will be determined and the direction will be determined for the studies that improve these points.

What is being measured

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

  1. Determining the effect of cardiovascular risk factors on the mean age of the first acute coronary syndrome

    Detection of the effect of gender, smoking, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, psychological stress, socioeconomic status, migration, dyslipidemia on the age of first acute coronary syndrome episode.

    Measured: 10 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Determining the effect of obesity on the mean age of the first acute coronary syndrome

    Grouping will be made to obesity degree (Normal, overweight, obesity severe obesity). The first ACS average age of these groups will be compared. Risk factors affecting this average age will not be revealed by linear regression model.

    Measured: 6 years

  2. Determining the effect of migration on the mean age of the first acute coronary syndrome.

    Do the patients live in the city where they were born. It will be determined whether he migrated from another city. If there is a migration situation, the reasons will be determined. The migration direction will be determined according to the regions. The impact of migration and migration direction on the first ACS age will be determined.

    Measured: 6 years

  3. Model for calculating the acute coronary syndrome age

    Develop a model that calculates the estimated age of ACS on the basis of cardiovascular risk factors.

    Measured: 8 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Coronary Syndrome and Age Problem, run by Antalya Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 31 Jan 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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 Deniz Demirci, MD (+905056847321, dddemirci@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Determining the effect of cardiovascular risk factors on the mean age of the first acute coronary syndrome (time frame: 10 years). 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 NCT04578964, 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 31 Jan 2023.
