Clinical Evaluation of New Biomarkers for Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease

The goal of this single-center prospective observational study is to identify and evaluate new biomarkers for ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD) to aid in early diagnosis, individualized treatment planning, and prognosis prediction in affected patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can specific biomarkers help in identifying high-risk individuals before disease onset? Can these biomarkers predict disease progression and treatment response? Researchers will compare patients diagnosed with ICVD and healthy controls from a medical check-up center to assess differences in biomarker expression and their clinical significance. Participants will: Provide blood, cerebrospinal fluid, urine, and stool samples for biomarker analysis. Undergo clinical imaging (CT, MRI, PET-CT) and functional assessments. Be followed up at 3, 6, 12, 24, 36, and 48 months for clinical outcomes and biomarker changes. This study aims to develop a comprehensive biomarker-based prediction model to enhance the diagnosis and management of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Research on Early Prediction Model of Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease Based on Artificial Intelligence Technology.

Establish an artificial intelligence clinical decision support system for patients with carotid/vertebral artery cerebrovascular stenosis, early identification of patients who may have cerebral infarction. With the support of this project, it is expected that a secondary prevention clinical decision support system for chronic stroke will be established, which is likely to become an important auxiliary tool for the management of cerebrovascular diseases in the future.

Efficacy and Safety of Calculus Bovis Sativus (CBS) for Ischemic Cerebral Vascular Disease (CBSinICVD)

The most common cause of death for Chinese patients is ischemic cerebrovascular diseases(ICVD), particularly cerebral infarction. It places a heavy burden on people, families, and society as a whole and poses considerable risks of death and disability. The disease known as CSVD has a subtle beginning, is difficult to identify, and is frequently detected only after it progresses to the point of vascular cognitive dysfunction. The primary ischemia necrosis of brain nerve cells and the activation of inflammatory cells are their pathologic processes. According to historical Chinese medical documents, bezoar possesses properties that can help prevent seizures, treat strokes, enhance cognitive function and mental well-being, and stimulate alertness. Calculus Bovis Sativus (CBS) is the most authentic formulation of bezoar ingredients compared to other bezoar products. It has received approval from the China Food and Drug Administration for the essential treatment of comatose patients. CBS consists of three primary constituents: bilirubin, bile acids, and taurine. Scientific evidence has demonstrated that all of these components possess anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and neuroprotective properties. The investigators' objective is to carry out an investigator-initiated clinical study to assess the efficacy of orally administered CBS in treating ischemic cerebrovascular diseases in humans.

Prognosis Prediction System of Patients With Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Diseases Based on Multi-omics

The etiology and specific pathogenesis of many cardiovascular diseases such as coronary atherosclerosis, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation, and stroke are still unclear. Improving diagnosis and treatment, clarifying the pathogenesis, and providing scientific basis for the prevention and treatment are hot research topics in the study of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. This study intends to collect clinical data and biological specimen data of patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and use multi-omics technology to deeply understand the pathogenic mechanisms of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and provide new ideas for specific and individualized treatment of patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, to construct early predictive prognostic models and provide a basis for effective treatment of clinical practice in patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

In the Real World Study, the Efficacy and Adverse Reactions of Ticagrelor on Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease

This is a forward-looking, open, one-arm, and real clinical trial world. The researchers plan to recruit at least 50 qualified patients. The main purpose of this study is to establish a population pharmacokinetic model of ticagrelor , explore the correlation between its blood concentration and the events of ischemia and the adverse effects of hemorrhage, and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ticagrelor in the treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.

Blood Pressure Variability in Non-hypertensive Patients With Ischemic Cerebrovascular Disease

This study is a single-center prospective cohort of patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD) who have not met the diagnostic criteria for hypertension. Ambulatory 24-hour blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) will be performed at baseline and one year after the enrollment. The primary purpose of the study is to delineate the relationship of blood pressure variability (BPV) with the risk of composite vascular events in non-hypertensive patients with ICVD. The factors related to BPV, as well as the potential modulators of the associations between BPV and vascular risk, will be further explored among these patients.
