Predicting inflammation after heart bypass surgery
This study looks at how your genes might affect your body's response to heart bypass surgery, specifically the risk of inflammation after the operation. Participants will provide blood samples before and after surgery to help researchers understand this connection.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are over 18 years old.
- You are scheduled to have elective coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, which uses a heart-lung machine.
- You have not had major surgery or a previous chest-opening (sternotomy) within the last three months.
- You are not taking immunosuppressive drugs for a chronic condition or cancer.
- You do not have a blood cancer (like leukemia or lymphoma).
- You can understand English enough to follow instructions.

This study looks at how patients recover after heart bypass surgery to find common patterns. It may help doctors better understand and support recovery.
This study looks at certain blood and bone marrow cells (megakaryocytes) in people having heart bypass surgery. It aims to learn more about these cells, which may help in future treatments.
This study looks at how to predict major heart problems in people with heart failure who are scheduled for bypass surgery (CABG). It aims to improve risk assessment before the procedure.
This study looks at how weight-loss surgery affects heart health by checking markers of inflammation in the blood and how blood vessels work. It may help understand why surgery lowers heart risk for people with obesity.
This trial tests whether taking dietary supplements (like probiotics and omega-3) before and after coronary artery bypass surgery improves your recovery and overall health. If you are having CABG surgery, you may be randomly assigned to receive the supplements or standard care, and your progress will be tracked.
