简要总结
The FLOW-PROMOTE Study is an investigator-initiated, Danish multicenter study of patients with stable chest pain investigating whether lipid lowering is associated with recovery of impaired coronary flow as assessed by CT derived fractional flow reserve (FFRCT).
详细描述
Multicenter study (4 centers in Denmark), including 120 patients with stable chest pain and hemodynamically significant coronary artery disease as assessed by FFRCT. By using two lipid lowering treatment strategies ("usual" vs "intensive" care) over 18 months, the effect on coronary plaque regression and flow recovery are assessed from repeated CT angiograms with plaque and FFRCT analyses at 9 and 18 months.
