Summary: Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is a rare cardiomyopathy characterized by the progressive replacement of cardiomyocytes by fatty and fibrous tissue in the right ventricle (RV). These infiltrations lead to cardiac electrical instability and ventricular arrhythmia. Current treatment for ARVD is empirical and essentially based on treatment of arrhythmia. Thus, there is no validated ...

Background: \- High blood pressure in the lungs, known as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), is a rare disorder. In spite of recent advances in treatment, the death rate remains unacceptably high. Lung blood vessel function can be harmed by progressive injuries, such as inflammation, leading to worsening of the disease. A drug called spironolactone has been known to improve blood vessel function and reduc...

Summary: This study seeks to determine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an intervention consisting of off-label use of a medication with strong efficacy data for alcohol use disorder (AUD) with medical management and a clinical pharmacist-delivered behavioral intervention in reducing alcohol use among individuals with HIV and AUD.

Summary: This study will include patients with severe degenerative aortic stenosis (AS) who meet the inclusion criteria and voluntarily participate (planned to undergo TAVI), as well as patients with aortic stenosis who have not undergone valve replacement (control group). All enrolled patients will undergo a \^18F-FAPI-1801 PET/CT scan at baseline (before or at the time of TAVI) and 6 months postoperative...

Summary: Idiopathic hyperaldosteronism (IHA) represents about 65% of primary hyperaldosteronism cases. Although mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) are the standard first-line treatment, they are often limited by adverse effects. Superselective adrenal artery embolization (SAAE) has been utilized for IHA over the last decade, yet comparative studies against MRAs are lacking. The objective of this...

Summary: This study examines the bioavailability and bioequivalence of single dose of a Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) tablet (12 mg Extended-Release Torsemide and 15mg Spironolactone). The goal of this study is to determine PK/PD effects of the FDC, 10 mg Torsemide alone, 25mg Aldactone® (Spironolactone) alone, and 10 mg Torsemide and 25 mg Aldactone® (Spironolactone) taken together in healthy subjects.

Summary: This study will examine comparative bioavailability of single dose of a fixed dose combination (FDC) of extended release Torsemide and Spironolactone given with or without food in healthy adult subjects.

Summary: A study Comparing the Clinical Benefit of Finerenone Versus a Fixed-Dose Combination (FDC) of Extended-Release Torsemide and Spironolactone in Patients with Hypertension and Chronic Kidney Disease.

Summary: Postoperative delirium (POD) is an acute brain dysfunction characterized by inattention, impaired consciousness, and cognitive and orientation disturbances, and is a common complication after cardiac surgery. The high incidence of up to 52% of POD in cardiac surgery patients lead to a range of adverse clinical outcomes.The brain tissue is enclosed in a rigid anatomical structure; when there is an ...

Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) affects about 29.5 million people in the United States. Only 3 medicines have been approved by Food and Drug Administration to treat AUD. Researchers want to find better treatments for AUD. Animal studies found that a medicine called spironolactone, may decrease the amount of alcohol the animals drank. Spironolactone is approved to treat high blood pressure, or heart fai...

Summary: The study aims to assess the effect of superselective adrenal arterial embolization on vascular endothelial function in patients with primary aldosteronism based on brachial artery flow-mediated relaxation

Summary: Venous pressure is often overlooked as an important hemodynamic parameter. Elevated venous pressure and blood stasis in organ tissues can lead to interstitial edema. Intraoperative venous blood stasis can rapidly increase interstitial pressures within organ tissues, especially in organs encapsulated by tissue envelopes, such as the kidney, thereby rapidly reducing effective circulating blood flow ...
