Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Luciana O C Dourado"
- Luciana O C Dourado's research primarily focuses on the management and treatment of refractory angina (RA), exploring the effectiveness and safety of exercise training regimens and other therapeutic approaches for patients with chronic coronary artery disease.
- Recent findings indicate that while exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation can be safely integrated into the treatment of RA patients, it may not significantly improve endothelial function, a critical marker for coronary artery disease prognosis.
- Dourado has also investigated the potential myocardial injury from acute aerobic exercise in RA patients and assessed the use of biomarkers such as high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) to predict cardiovascular outcomes, enhancing the understanding of treatment implications for high-risk coronary artery disease patients.
