Study summary

This is a systemic research of Chinese aortic coarctation patients, aiming to determine risk factors and serial biomarkers of aortic coarctation in prognosis.

Read the detailed description

The goal is to determine how much the left ventricle remodeling pre-operation and how it changes in the following-up duration after surgery, so does in the blood pressure and heart function. Risk factors associated with complications and prognosis are investigated and analyzed. Identification of novel biomarkers is needed to help predicting the prognosis, such as the left ventricle anti-remodeling, heart function and blood pressure improvement, as well as the exercise tolerance post-operation. The findings of this study will help the investigators developping new tests to monitor affected patients and optimize the operation as well as the follow-up procedure.

Groups and cohorts

  • Retrospective Cohort of Aortic Coarctation

    Patients diagnosed as aortic coarctation and undergone corrected procedures from 2002 to Feb 28th 2019 were recruited in Beijing Anzhen Hospital, recording the results of clinical lab and echocardiography.

  • Perspective Cohort of Aortic Coarctation

    Patients diagnosed as aortic coarctation and undergone corrected procedures after Mar. 1st 2019 will be recruited in Beijing Anzhen Hospital, recording the results of clinical lab and echocardiography.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in left ventricular mass

    Left ventricular mass will be measured by 2D echocardiography. For the retrospective cohort, the data is collected from the cases' medical record, and during follow-up visit.

    Time frame: Prior to primary treatment and during follow-up visit(one month to 20 years for retrospective cohort and one year for prospective cohort)

  2. Hypertension

    Both resting blood pressure and exercise-related blood pressure will be assessed for patients above 5 years old during the follow-up visit.

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

Secondary outcomes

  1. Left ventricular systolic function

    Left ventricular systolic function assessed by echocardiography

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

  2. Left ventricular diastolic function

    Left ventricular diastolic function assessed by echocardiography (TDI)

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

  3. Left ventricular systolic heart function of longitudinal myocardium

    Left ventricular systolic heart function of longitudinal myocardium assessed by echocardiography (M mode Doppler).

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

  4. Exercise tolerance

    Six minutes walking distance will be recorded and analyzed to evaluate the exercise tolerance. Echocardiographic images will be obtained after six minutes walking to assess the reserve function of left ventricle. Blood pressure will also be taken immediately after the Six minutes walking to analyze exercise-induced hypertension.

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

  5. Biomarkers of vascular inflammation

    Biomarkers of inflammation (hs-CRP). For the retrospective cohort, the data is collected from the cases' medical record, and during follow-up visit.

    Time frame: Prior to primary treatment and during follow-up visit(one month to 20 years for retrospective cohort and one year for prospective cohort)

  6. Biomarkers of left ventricle remodeling

    Biomarkers of left ventricle remodeling (ST2)

    Time frame: For the retrospective cohort, follow-up visit of 1 month to 20 years after primary treatment. For the prospective cohort, the data is collected prior to primary treatment and during follow-up visit of one year after primary treatment

  7. Biomarkers of left heart function

    Biomarkers of left heart function (BNP). For the retrospective cohort, the data is collected from the cases' medical record, and during follow-up visit.

    Time frame: Prior to primary treatment and during follow-up visit(one month to 20 years for retrospective cohort and one year for prospective cohort)

  8. Biomarkers of hypertension phenotype related to aortic coarctation

    Biomarkers of hypertension phenotype related to aortic coarctation

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

  9. Recoarctation

    Recoarctation assessed by echocardiography or computed tomography angiography.

    Time frame: one month to 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

  10. All-cause death

    The data is collected during follow-up visit at follow-up time point.

    Time frame: 20 years after primary treatment for retrospective cohort and one year after primary treatment for prospective cohort

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jul 14, 2020, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
