About this study

Official title: Diagnostic Value of HS-CRP in Stable Angina Patients With Positive Exercise Test as Compared With Coronary Angiography.

The aim of this study was to assess the amount of additive value of HS-CRP levels to a positive exercise tolerance test (ETT) in predicting coronary artery disease (CAD) using coronary angiography as the gold standard. The investigators concluded that HS-CRP can be used as a single predictor of coronary vessel involvement in patients with stable angina and positive ETT.

Read the detailed description

the investigators included 97 patients with positive ETT and stable angina and saw that Hs-CRP is the only predictor of severity of CAD as compared with coronary angiography in stable angina patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing coronary angiography in people with Stable Angina and Positive ETT, run by Shiraz University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2008. 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 Iran. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

significant coronary lesion. 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jul 2008.
