NCT05977049
The study hypothesis is that participants enrolled in a virtual Takotsubo support group will have significantly less anxiety at one year.
NCT06277297
The primary objective of this observational registry is to develop a comprehensive clinical and imaging score (incorporating echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance data) that enhances risk stratification for patients with Takotsubo syndrome. The secondary objectives of this registry are as follows: Investigate the diagnostic value of cardiac magnetic resonance parameters in predicting in-hospital and long-term outcomes in patients with Takotsubo syndrome. Compare the proposed risk stratification score for patients with Takotsubo syndrome with previously existing scores. Investigate the contribution of machine learning models in predicting in-hospital and long-term outcomes compared to standard clinical scores. The design and rationale of this registry are available at 10.1097/RTI.0000000000000709
NCT03299569
Acute stress-induced (Takotsubo cardiomyopathy) presents like a heart attack and is triggered by intense emotional or physical stress. Although coronary arteries are unobstructed, it has been suggested that the risk of death is similar to a myocardial infarction. The purpose of the STARR study is to identify all cases of Takotsubo in Scotland since 2010 and assess its epidemiology and outcomes.
NCT06323811
This clinical study examines patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction and no significant coronary artery disease on coronary angiography (MINOCA) and patients with MINOCA-mimics with advanced CMR. The present study aims to: * assess the microvascular function with a novel quantitative 3D myocardial perfusion imaging approach in the acute phase and post-convalescence * refine the role and diagnostic potential of advanced quantitative CMR imaging * assess the potential prognostic significance of microvascular dysfunction and epicardial adipose tissue on cardiovascular outcomes Participants will undergo advanced CMR imaging in the acute setting (within 10 days after event) and post convalescence (after 3 months).

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is a type of non-ischemic cardiomyopathy in which there is a sudden temporary weakening of the myocardium. . In a recent study, women report more sexual dysfunction than men after 1 year after TC. Despite that a number of studies have assessed female sexual dysfunction (FSD) for TC , there is no information regarding prevalence and associated factors on FSD in women with TC. However, in a recent study on Iranian female patients with TC, more than 77% of these patients suffered from FSD. This study is aimed to assess the effectiveness of a Mindfulness-based Sex Therapy on Patients With TC.
NCT02759341
The Tako-Tsubo Cardiomyopathy (TTC) and the Cardiac Syndrome X (CSX) are respectively acute and chronic heart diseases, which mimic myocardial infarction and stable angina pectoris without alterations of large coronary vessels. The causes and the most appropriate and best treatment for these diseases have not been yet clarified, but there are indications, that mental and psychosocial aspects may also contribute to these two diseases. So far, there is no study, which has comprehensively evaluated the interactions between mind and heart in these two conditions. The purpose of this study is to search for possible differences in mental activity, response to stressful events and function of specific areas of the brain deeply involved in relation between mind and heart. 45 subjects will be recruited and divided equally into: patients with CSX, patients with TTC (at least 6 months ago) and patients with previous acute myocardial infarction (at least 6 months ago). All participants will undergo a clinical interview and several questionnaires that assess various mental functions, the stress response and the quality of life. In addition, in a separate visit the participants will undergo a Magnetic Resonance Imaging without contrast medium that helps to assess function of specific areas of the brain.
