Acute myocardial infarction: are diabetics different?
Before considering whether diabetic patients undergoing myocardial infarction (MI) should be treated differently, let us consider diabetic patients with coronary artery disease and those who undergo interventional procedures.

متن کاملMyocardial infarction risk in relation to zinc concentration in toenails.
Zn is an essential mineral. The role of Zn in atherosclerosis is not clear. Epidemiological studies, which have reported contradictory results, are limited by the use of serum Zn levels as a marker of intake. We assessed the association of toenail Zn, which integrates dietary Zn intake over 3 to 12 months, with the risk of a first myocardial infarction. Toenail Zn concentrations were determined...
متن کاملFamily size and paternal unemployment in relation to myocardial infarction.
Men who had been in hospital for myocardial infarction (MI) were compared with other male patients in an attempt to provide evidence on the hypothesis linking MI with poverty in childhood followed by relative affluence. In each of three social class groupings MI patients came from larger families than controls, and a higher proportion of their fathers had been unemployed for more than a year du...
متن کاملRelation of obesity to acute myocardial infarction in Japanese patients.
BACKGROUND It remains uncertain whether obesity is an independent risk factor for coronary heart disease in young adults, as well as adults, in Japan. METHODS AND RESULTS In the present study, 1,260 cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and 3,775 community controls were recruited from the AMI-Kyoto Multi-Center Risk Study and Kyoto Citizen's Health and Nutrition Study, respectively. Obes...
متن کاملTranslation of Methdology used in Human Myocardial Imaging to a Sheep Model of Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background: Pre-clinical investigation of stem cells for repairing damaged myocardium predominantly used rodents, however large animals have cardiac circulation closely resembling the human heart. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether SPECT/CT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) could be used for assessing sheep myocardium following an acute myocardial infarction (MI) and response to int...
