Imaging of Myocardial Inflammation Post ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
The treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) has focused heavily on early reperfusion of the infarct-related artery. However, the inflammatory processes in the infarct that occur shortly after MI and govern wound healing in the heart have not been targeted therapeutically. Perhaps this has resulted from our inability to visualize these processes. In contrast to coronary angiography, which has cl...
متن کامل[Prognostic value of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction].
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic value of TNFalpha in this clinical setting at six-month follow-up. METHODS The levels of TNFalpha, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin 6 and type 1 soluble intercellular adhesion molecules measured within...
متن کاملStudy of the Duration, Outcomes, and Related Factors of Reperfusion Therapy in Patients with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Background and Objective: One of the most important advancements regarding the care of patients with acute myocardial infarction is the administration of anti-coagulation medicines (e.g., streptokinase). However, it must be noticed that this medicine requires rapid and timely administration. Moreover, Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) is increasingly used as a method of revascularization...
متن کاملResolution of ST-segment depression: A new prognostic marker in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
AIMS To evaluate the prognostic impact of ST depression resolution among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing primary PCI in the Assessment of Pexelizumab in Acute Myocardial Infarction (APEX-AMI) trial. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, 4729 of 5745 patients had analysable ECGs demonstrating concomitant ST-segment depression. Resolution of summation op...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy is not associated with increased in-hospital adverse events in patients experiencing first non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction: A single center study
Background: There is conflicting data about prognostic implication of electrocardiographic (ECG) left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in patients with first non- ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We aimed to examine the association of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) on admission electrocardiogram with adverse outcomes in patients with NSTEMI. Methods: In the present study, ...
