Comparative Effectiveness Research to Assess the Use of Primary ProphylacTic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators in EUrope (EU-CERT-ICD)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,
An estimated 500.000 sudden cardiac deaths (SCD) occur each year in the European Union.

Exploitation of genomic variants affecting coronary artery disease and stroke risk for therapeutic intervention (CVGENES-AT-TARGET)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2017,
Atherosclerosis and its most disabling sequelae, coronary artery disease (CAD) and stroke, are leading causes of death in Europe.
