Influence of Severe Heart Failure to Function and Molecular Biological Parameters of Catabolism in the Human Diaphragm and Peripheral Skeletal Muscle (LIPAMUS-HF)

June 8, 2018 updated by: Norman Mangner
Project aim is to quantify the influence of a severe therapy-refractory heart failure caused by ischemic or dilative myocardiopathy on the function of the diaphragm, its molecular biological parameters and on the M. vastus lateralis. The control group consists of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and normal left ventricular ejection fraction indicated for coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) Differences in the geneses of heart failure (ischemic vs. dilative cardiomyopathy) will be evaluated during analysis. The ubiquitin-proteasome signaling pathway is considered as a central issue for the mechanism of the analyses muscle catabolism.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

40 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Expression of catabolic E3 ligase Muscle ring finger 1 (MuRF1)
Time Frame: at the time of index procedure (biopsy)
at the time of index procedure (biopsy)

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
in vitro measurement of the muscle protein - poly ubiquitination of Proteins
Time Frame: at the time of index procedure (biopsy)
at the time of index procedure (biopsy)
in vitro measurement of the muscle protein - the proteasome activity

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures.
