Study population: Controls were from the population of the Coimbra and Lisbon, Portugal, regions. They satisfied the criterion that they had never had any CVD- or SLE-related health complaints. CVD1 (n= 61) contains individuals who went to the hospital with chest pain but had no indicators for stable angina pectoris, unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction. CVD2 (n=82) are patients with stable angina pectoris. CVD3 (n=20) contains patients with unstable angina pectoris, CVD4 (n=34) are patients who suffered an acute myocardial infarction with no ST-elevation in ECG, and CVD5 (n= 20) are patients who suffered acute myocardial infarction with ST-elevation in ECG. CVD1 through CVD5 groups were from Hospital Santa Cruz, Carnaxide, Portugal. IS (n=21) were patients admitted at the emergency room of the Centro Hospitalar de Lisboa Ocidental, Lisbon, Portugal, who suffered from acute ischemic stroke. The SLE cohort (n=104) were patients from Hospital Dr. Fernando Fonseca, Amadora, Portugal.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients admitted for coronary angiography due to suspected coronary disease (silent ischemia, stable angina and acute coronary syndromes)

Who cannot join

  • Patients unable to give informed consent

About this study

Collect blood from patients admitted for coronary angiography to tubes with heparin, centrifuge and collect plasma. This will be frozen at -80C. Sent to the Lipotype laboratory, Dresden, Germany, for the detection and quantification of compounds derived from oxidized LDL cholesterol (cholesterol hemi-esters).

Read the detailed description

Plasma samples were obtained from a total of 427 individuals. Baseline characteristics are outlined in Table 1. Control (n = 85) were taken from the population of the Coimbra and Lisbon, Portugal, regions. They satisfied the criterion that they had never had any CVD- or SLE-related health complaints. The CVD patients (n = 238) were divided into 6 groups. CVD1 (n = 61) contains individuals who went to the hospital with chest pain but had no indicators for stable angina pectoris, unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction. CVD2 (n = 82) are patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP). CVD1 and CVD2 are defined according to the ACCF/AHA/ACP/AATS/PCNA/SCAI/STS guidelines. CVD3 (n = 20) contains patients with unstable angina pectoris, CVD4 (n = 34) are patients who suffered an acute myocardial infarction with no ST-elevation in ECG, and CVD5 (n = 20) are patients who suffered acute myocardial infarction with ST-elevation in ECG. CVD3, CVD4, and CVD5, together, may be classified as patients with an acute coronary syndrome (ACS). CVD1 through CVD5 groups were all obtained from Hospital Santa Cruz, Carnaxide, Portugal. Acute ischemic stroke (IS) (n = 21) were patients admitted at the emergency room of the Centro Hospitalar de Lisboa Ocidental, Lisbon, Portugal, who suffered from acute ischemic stroke. The SLE cohort (n = 104) were patients from Hospital Dr. Fernando Fonseca, Amadora, Portugal. The inclusion criteria were all patients diagnosed with the pathology and above 18 years old. The exclusion criteria were the existence of serious renal and hepatic pathologies, cancer or existence of infectious diseases.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnosis of inflammatory disease

    Controls never had any CVD- or SLE-related health complaints.

    CVD1 contains individuals who went to the hospital with chest pain but had no indicators for stable angina pectoris, unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction. CVD2 are patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP). CVD1 and CVD2 are defined according to the ACCF/AHA/ACP/AATS/PCNA/SCAI/STS guidelines. CVD3 contains patients with unstable angina pectoris, CVD4 are patients who suffered an acute myocardial infarction with no ST-elevation in ECG, and CVD5 are patients who suffered acute myocardial infarction with ST-elevation in ECG .

    Acute ischemic stroke (IS) were patients admitted at the emergency room of the Centro Hospitalar de Lisboa Ocidental, Lisbon, Portugal

    SLE cohort were patients from Hospital Dr. Fernando Fonseca, Amadora, Portugal.

    Measured: Day 1: Age, height, weight, sex, statin use and lipid level in plasma

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Biomarker and Lipid, run by Universidade Nova de Lisboa.

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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnosis of inflammatory disease (time frame: Day 1: Age, height, weight, sex, statin use and lipid level in plasma). 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 NCT04786431, which also lists 3 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 8 Mar 2021.
