2. Outline

Clinical Trials

“Clinical Trials” here are medical studies on humans, and refer to the intervention trials on prevention, diagnosis, or treatment. Although intervention using medical supplies or medical equipment is at the core, intervention of meals, exercises, and rehabilitation could also be included. For example, the randomized controlled trial using medicine could be included in "Clinical Trials". The prospective observational study without intervention should be applied to “Cohort Studies”.

Cohort Studies

“Cohort Studies” here refer to prospective epidemiological studies. These include prospective observational studies based on registry.

* First priority will be given to “Clinical Trials / Cohort Studies” that will be announced for the first time at the 82nd Annual Scientific Meeting of the Japanese Circulation Society and have not been announced or submitted to any other scientific meeting. However, consideration will be extended to those “Trials / Studies” that have been announced previously.
