About this study

The goal of this observational study is to analyze the acute effects of meteorological factors and air pollution on cardiovascular system. The main question it aims to answer is:

  1. How do meteorological factors and air pollution affect cardiovascular system?
  2. What is the interaction between meteorological factors and air pollution on cardiovascular system?

Participants will:

  1. Provide their health data obtained in physical examination, including but not limited to blood pressure, blood routine, urine routine and B-ultrasound.
  2. agree that the research team will use their personal identification number, gender, age, education level and other information for statistical analysis of the data.
Read the detailed description

The collected data include: ID number (or unique identification code similar to ID number), physical examination date, work unit, occupation, gender, age, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, height, weight, blood routine, urine routine and blood biochemical examination results,Color Doppler (or B-ultrasound) examination results (thyroid color Doppler, abdominal color Doppler, urinary color Doppler, cardiac color Doppler, cervical vascular color Doppler, etc.), electrocardiogram, cardiac CTA, carbon 13 breath test, and written diagnosis results of liver fibrosis.

What participants receive

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

  • NOTOther

    This retrospective cohort study involves no new interventions. It analyzes existing health data collected from subjects exposed to varying atmospheric conditions to assess impacts on health outcomes.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Troponin

    Troponin data were obtained by blood biochemical detection data recorded in the diagnosis and treatment system, with unit of µg/L.

  2. White cell count

    White cell count data were obtained by blood routine blood data recorded in the diagnosis and treatment system, with unit of 10^9/L

    Measured: The white cell count data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure to meteorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

  3. Controlled Attenuation Parameter(CAP)

    Controlled Attenuation Parameter(CAP)data were obtained by Diagnosis of hepatic fibrosis data recorded in the diagnosis and treatment system, with unit of dB/m.

    Measured: The Controlled Attenuation Parameter(CAP)data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

  4. ST segment of electrocardiogram

    ST segment were obtained by Electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded in the diagnosis and treatment system with unit of mV.

    Measured: The ST segment of electrocardiogram were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

  5. Degree of coronary artery stenosis

    Degree of coronary artery stenosis data were obtained by Coronary CTA data recorded in the diagnosis and treatment system, with unit of µg/L

    Measured: The degree of coronary artery stenosis data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

  6. Weight

    Weight data were obtained from the diagnosis and treatment record system and recorded by standard measuring tools, with unit of kg

    Measured: The weight data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

  7. Height

    Height data were obtained from the diagnosis and treatment record system and recorded by standard measuring tools, with unit of cm

    Measured: The height data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

  8. Urinary glucose

    Urinary glucose data were obtained by Urine routine data recorded in the diagnosis and treatment system, with unit of mmol/L.

    Measured: The urinary glucose data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Mingwei W Wang, PhD (18758871517 ext. not, wmw990556@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Troponin (time frame: The troponin data were tested at baseline 3 months before exposure tometeorological factors or air pollution, and followed up for 1 year and 2 years after exposure.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06663267, 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.
