1. International Bicuspid Aortic Valve Consortium (BAVCon)

   Rochester, Minn.

   Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most frequent congenital cardiac malformation, occurring in 0.5-1.2% of the US population. In young adults, it is generally a benign abnormality; but in older adults it is associated with thoracic aortic aneurysm or dissection in 20-30% of those with BAV. BAV is strongly associated with early development of aortic valve calcification or incompetence in >50% of BAV patients, and accounts for ~40% of the >30,000 aortic valve replacements (AVR) performed in the US each year. Yet, we know little of the etiology, cellular events and modifiers of progression of BAV to calcific aortic valve disease and we still do not understand the genetic cause(s) of BAV despite evidence for its high heritability.

   The Specific Aims of this study are:

   1. To identify the genetic causes of bicuspid aortic valve disease and its associated thoracic aortic disease.

   2. To identify potential pathways to predict the clinical course of BAV disease and for treating human BAV disease.

   To achieve these aims, we have created the International Bicuspid Aortic Valve Consortium (BAVCon), a consortium of institutions with cohorts of BAV patients and the expertise to fulfill the performance of these aims.

2. A Study to Evaluate Proximal Aortic Seal Zone Stress and Strain Following Endovascular Aortic Repair

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to obtain baseline stress and strain of abdominal aortic artery prior to endovascular repair, and to compare the variation in stress and strain of Ovation vs. Cook stent grafts immediately post-operativelythen after 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months following endovascular repair.

3. A Study to Assess Long-term Symptom Improvement and Recurrence after Operative Management of Popliteal Artery Entrapment Syndrome (PAES)

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term symptom resolution and quality of life improvements after operative management of popliyteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES).

4. Multi-Center Prospective Validation Study of VTE Risk Prediction Tool in Trauma Patients

   Rochester, Minn.

   Almost one-half million people suffer venous thromboembolism annually in the United States, and one-third die from this disease. Massive bleeding from injury accounts for half of early deaths after trauma. This study aims to prevent the deaths and suffering associated with venous thromboembolism and bleeding by identifying the individual person at high risk of these complications in order to take preventive measures.

5. Angiographic and Psychosocial Evaluation of Peripartum vs. Non Peripartum Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to determine differences in clinical and imaging presentation, in-hospital management and prognosis in peri-partum and non-peri-partum SCAD patients.

    

6. A Study to Analyze Association of Frequent Premature Ventricular Complex with Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to verify that high Premature Ventricular Complex (PVC) burden is associated with increased risk of stroke and/or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA), to examine outcomes such as stroke/TIA, atrial fibrillation/flutter, and all-cause mortality associated with PVCs, and to evaluate whether PVCs are associated with development of appendage dysfunction.

7. A Study To Explore If It Is Possible To Successfully Obtain Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Imaging And Data While Patients Undergo Brain Surgery

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The goal of this study is to investigate the feasibility of successfully obtaining intra-operative OCT imaging and data during standard brain surgery.

8. A Study of Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) Adherence and Vessel Wall Penetration Following Intra-arterial Delivery Subsequent to Controlled Balloon Angioplasty

   Jacksonville, Fla.

   The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of MSCs that adhere to predetermined areas of arterial wall following balloon angioplasty vs no intervention, and to characterize the effect of intra-arterial injection of MSCs on predetermined areas of arterial wall via transcriptome analysis.

9. A Study to Evaluate the Process of Aging in Human Atherosclerosis

   Rochester, Minn.

   The purpose of this study is to critically test the hypothesis that senescent-cell derived factors (cell aging), in particular IGFBP3, suppress the innate repair capacity of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) in human atherosclerosis.

10. Outcomes of Open and Endovascular Repair for Ruptured and Non-Ruptured Internal Iliac Artery Aneurysms

    Rochester, Minn.

    The purpose of this study is to evaluate different techniques to repair internal iliac artery aneurysms. Report short and long term clinical outcomes with markers of pelvic perfustion.  Compare partial pelvic perfusion preservation with bilateral complete preservation.
