About this study

Official title: Evaluation and Prognosis of Cerebrovascular and Neurological Health Status in Patients With Coronary Heart Disease After Treatment

The purpose of this study is to elucidate the imaging mechanisms of cognitive function changes in patients with coronary heart disease before and after surgery or conservative treatment, and to evaluate and predict the postoperative neurological function recovery and cerebrovascular health level of patients by combining serum markers and patient cardiovascular health evaluation indicators.

Read the detailed description

The focus of this study is to elucidate the impact of coronary heart disease on the morphology and cognitive changes of cerebral blood vessels in patients. Record imaging data, neuropsychological cognitive scales, serum markers, adverse cardiac events, and patient evaluation indicators before and after clinical treatment and follow-up period, and explore relevant factors affecting changes in cerebrovascular morphology and cognitive function.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change of brain volume before and after treatment

    The change of brain volume (mm3) are evaluated by structural 3DT1 weighted MRI. Freesurfer software is used to get the measured value of the volume.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  2. Change of cerebrovascular morphology before and after treatment

    The change of Cerebral vessel density, caliber and tortuosity, brain white matter hyperintensity lesion count

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  3. Change of brain function connectivity before and after operation

    The change of brain functional connectivity intensity are evaluated by rest stage functional MRI. DPABI software based on MATLAB is used to get the measured the matrix value of functional connectivity.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Change of serum marker concentration before and after operation

    The change of serum marker concentration is evaluated by inflammatory cytokine.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  2. Change of plasma marker concentration before and after operation

    The change of plasma marker concentration is evaluated by neurofilament light chain(NFL) protein extracted from plasma.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  3. Change of cardiovascular risk factors before and after operation

    The change of cardiovascular risk factors is evaluated by blood routine and patients' living habits

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  4. Change of executive functions before and after operation evaluated by Trail-Making Test Part A

    The change of executive functions are first evaluated by Trail-Making Test Part A test. The minimum value is 0 , and the maximum value is 30. This test has no clear maximum and minimum values. If the test completion time exceeds 79 seconds, it means the outcome is abnormal. The higher scores mean a worse outcome.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  5. Change of working memory before and after operation evaluated by Forward Digit Span

    The change of working memory is first evaluated by Forward Digit Span. The minimum value is 0 , and the maximum value is not clear. The normal range of results is 7.75±1.47. The higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  6. Change of working memory before and after operation evaluated by Backward Digit Span

    The change of working memory is second evaluated by Backward Digit Span. The minimum value is 0 , and the maximum value is not clear. The normal range of results is 5.36±1.91. The higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  7. Change of executive functions before and after operation evaluated by Trail-Making Test Part B

    The change of executive functions are first evaluated by Trail-Making Test Part B test. The minimum value is 0 , and the maximum value is 30. This test has no clear maximum and minimum values. If the test completion time exceeds 79 seconds, it means the outcome is abnormal. The higher scores mean a worse outcome.It is a supplement to Trail-Making Test Part A, which is optional for patients who are not familiar with the English alphabetical order

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  8. Change of executive functions before and after operation evaluated by Digit Symbol Coding score

    The change of executive functions are second evaluated by Digit Symbol Coding score. The minimum value is 0 , and the maximum value is not clear. The normal range of results is 56.53 ± 20.17. The higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

  9. Change of episodic memory functions before and after operation evaluated by Auditory Verbal Learning test

    The change of episodic memory are evaluated by Auditory Verbal Learning test(AVLT-H).

    Measured: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Coronary Heart Disease and Image, run by Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine 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 2 inclusion and 9 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 8 May 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 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. 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 Nengrui Guo (0086-17635599999, 657040251@qq.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of brain volume before and after treatment (time frame: before operation; 3-10 Days after operation; 1 month; 6-12months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?
