Cardiovascular Diseases in Elderly Asthma

September 26, 2021 updated by: Seoul National University Hospital

Discovering Risk Factors for Cardiovascular Diseases in Elderly Asthma

This study is a cross-sectional study to evaluate the relationship between coronary calcium score and clinical parameters of asthma such as onset of disease, lung function parameter and airway inflammation parameter (sputum eosinophil or FeNO) in Korean elderly asthma (regardless of whether they have concomittent COPD or not) patients

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Active, not recruiting

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.

Detailed Description

Subjects who visited Allergy Clinic in SMG-SNU Boramae Medical Center for asthma or ACO will be recruited consecutively. Subjects who meets the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will take coronary artery calcium scoring CT and asthma CT (inspiration and expiration images). The correlation between the degree of coronary calcification and airway diameter, airway wall thickness, air-trapping and emphysema will be evaluated as well as clinical parameters of asthma. We will also compare those correlations from the images of healthy control subjects who performed the coronary calcium scoring CT for health checkup purpose.

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

60 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subjects who visited Allergy Clinic in SMG-SNU Boramae Medical Center for asthma or ACO

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • If the doctor has been diagnosed with asthma and one or more of the following criteria is met;

    1. FEV1 increased more than 12% & 200 mL after 10-20 minutes of inhalation of short-acting bronchodilator (200-400 mg salbutamol)
    2. Positive bronchial provocation tests (methacholine, mannitol, exercise, aspirin, etc.)
    3. FEV1 Increased more than 12% & 200 mL from baseline FEV1 after anti-inflammatory treatment for 4 weeks or longer.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Those who were already diagnosed and treated for coronary artery diseases.
  • Those with other structural lung diseases such as Tuberculosis destroyed lung and interstitial lung diseases
  • Those who are unable to conduct a test or questionnaire due to severe systemic illness, or cognitive dysfunction.
  • Those who are participating in other clinical trial using IND(investigational new drug) or finished other clinical trial within 30 days.
  • Those who refuse to participate in the study or withdraw the consent.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Asthma

If the doctor has been diagnosed with asthma and one or more of the following criteria is met;

  1. FEV1 (Forced expiratory volume in 1 second) increased more than 12% & 200 mL after 10-20 minutes of inhalation of short-acting bronchodilator (200-400 mg salbutamol)
  2. Positive bronchial provocation tests (methacholine, mannitol, exercise, aspirin, etc.)
  3. FEV1 Increased more than 12% & 200 mL from baseline FEV1 after anti-inflammatory treatment for 4 weeks or longer.

They can have concomittent COPD or not
Healthy control
Subjects who performed coronary artery calcium scoring CT for health checkup purpose.(retrospective group = historical control group)

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
coronary calcium score
Time Frame: through study completion, an average of 1 month
coronary calcium score from coronary calcium scoring CT which, we assumed to be a surrogate marker for cardiovascular risk.
through study completion, an average of 1 month

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
March 21, 2019

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. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
March 12, 2021

Study Completion (ANTICIPATED)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
