About this study

Read the detailed description

The burden of extra-intestinal disease is high in patients with IBD, some of whom respond to or are prevented by treating the bowel inflammation, whereas others require specific treatment because they are independent of the underlying bowel inflammation .

Cardiovascular diseases are the major causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. They may arise for various reasons such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, genetic, environmental, dietary, and lifestyle factors. Besides all these, there is much evidence suggesting that inflammation is an important player in the pathogenesis of heart disease, as well as atherogenesis and atherosclerosis . A most common systemic inflammatory disease is inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which is a collection of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, a chronic intestinal disease that may arise due to different factors, and is precipitated by environmental and genetic susceptibility Tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) is a useful echocardiographic technique to evaluate global and regional myocardial systolic as well as diastolic function. It can also be used to quantify right ventricular and left atrial function.

To date, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) is mostly used to detect significantly decreased EFs and abnormalities in wall motion. Contrast enhancement (CE) CMR is a more sensitive technique of cMRI and can detect areas of myocardial damage in patients with acute myocarditis .

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MRIDevice

    cMRI will be done only to patients presented with signs of HF, with raised cardiac biomarkers and echocardiographic signs of myocardial injury

    The Lake Louise diagnostic criteria for CMR in myocarditis:

    CMR findings are consistent with myocardial inflammation if at least two of the following criteria are present:

    • Regional or global myocardial signal intensity increase in T2-weighted images
    • Increased global myocardial early gadolinium enhancement ratio between myocardium and skeletal muscle in gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted images
    • There is at least one focal lesion with non-ischemic regional distribution on late gadolinium enhancement Presence of left ventricular dysfunction or pericardial effusion provides additional, supportive evidence for myocarditis 6. Carotid du

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cardiac MRI in IBD Patient, run by Assiut University.

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 3 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Mervat Sayed (01018602654, mervatsayed030@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of cardiovascular affection in IBD patients (time frame: baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04656015, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 7 Dec 2020.
