Clinical outcomes of ST elevation myocardial infarction patients without standard modifiable risk factors. J Cardiol 2024; 84:41-46. [PMID: 38043707 DOI: 10.1016/j.jjcc.2023.11.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2023] [Revised: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 11/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRFs; hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and smoking) are widely recognized as risk factors for coronary artery disease. However, the associations between absence of SMuRFs and long-term clinical outcomes in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients are unclear. METHODS Consecutive STEMI patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) between 1999 and 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoint was up to 5-year all-cause mortality. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared between patients with at least one of the SMuRFs and those without any SMuRFs. RESULTS Of 1963 STEMI patients, 126 (6.4 %) did not have any SMuRFs. Patients without SMuRFs were significantly older, had lower body mass index, and were more likely to be female. During a median follow-up period of 4.9 years, the cumulative incidence of death was significantly higher in patients without SMuRFs than in those with SMuRFs (log-rank p < 0.0001). Landmark analysis showed that patients without SMuRFs had higher mortality within 30 days of STEMI onset (log-rank p = 0.0045) and >30 days after STEMI onset (log-rank p = 0.0004). Multivariable Cox hazards analysis showed that absence of SMuRFs was associated with a higher risk of mortality (hazard ratio, 1.59; 95 % confidence interval, 1.14-2.21; p = 0.006). CONCLUSIONS Of STEMI patients undergoing primary PCI, patients without any SMuRFs had higher mortality than those with at least one of the SMuRFs. Patients without any SMuRFs have a poor prognosis and require more attention.

Abstract
Standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRFs), such as hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and current smoking, are associated with the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases including acute myocardial infarction (MI). Thus, therapeutic approaches against SMuRFs are important as primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular diseases. In patients with acute MI, however, the prognosis is counterintuitively poor when SMuRFs are lacking. The growing evidence has explored the prevalence, pathophysiology, and prognosis of SMuRF-less patients in acute MI and suggested the potential underlying mechanisms. This review article summarizes the clinical evidence and relevance of the lack of SMuRFs in acute MI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is increasing awareness that patients without standard modifiable risk factors (SMuRFs; diabetes, hypercholesterolaemia, hypertension and smoking) may represent a unique subset of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). We aimed to investigate the prevalence and outcomes of patients with SMuRF-less ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) compared with those with SMuRFs. METHODS We analysed data from the Melbourne Interventional Group PCI Registry. Patients with coronary artery disease were excluded. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality. Secondary outcomes included in-hospital and 30-day events. Long-term mortality was investigated using Cox-proportional hazards regression. RESULTS From 1 January 2005 to 31 December 2020, 2727/18 988 (14.4%) patients were SMuRF less, with the proportion increasing over time. Mean age was similar for patients with and without SMuRFs (63 years), and fewer females were SMuRF-less (19.8% vs 25.4%, p<0.001). SMuRF-less patients were more likely to present with cardiac arrest (6.6% vs 3.9%, p<0.001) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (59.1% vs 50.8%, p<0.001) and were more likely to experience postprocedural cardiogenic shock (4.5% vs 3.6%, p=0.019) and arrhythmia (11.2% vs 9.9%, p=0.029). At 30 days, mortality, myocardial infarction, revascularisation and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events did not differ between the groups. During median follow-up of 7 years, SMuRF-less patients had an adjusted 13% decreased rate of mortality (HR 0.87 (95% CI 0.78 to 0.97)). CONCLUSIONS The proportion of SMuRF-less patients increased over time. Presentation was more often a devastating cardiac event compared with those with SMuRFs. No difference in 30-day outcomes was observed and SMuRF-less patients had lower hazard for long-term mortality.

Differential Prognostic Impact of Risk-Prediction Models for Heart Failure in Acute Myocardial Infarction: The Original and Revised Heart Failure Time-Points. J Clin Med 2024; 13:2501. [PMID: 38731029 PMCID: PMC11084542 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13092501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2024] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: We previously developed a risk-scoring system for heart failure (HF) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI), namely "HF time-points (HFTPs)". In the original HFTPs, the presence of HF on admission, during hospitalization, and at short-term follow-up was individually scored. This study examined whether the revised HFTPs, with additional scoring of previous HF, provide better predictivity. Methods: This multicenter registry included a total of 1331 patients with acute MI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. HF was evaluated at four time-points before and after acute MI onset: (1) a history of HF; (2) elevated natriuretic peptide levels on admission; (3) in-hospital HF events; and (4) elevated natriuretic peptide levels at a median of 31 days after the onset. When HF was present at each time-point, one point was assigned to a risk scoring system, namely the original and revised HFTPs, ranging from 0 to 3 and from 0 to 4. The primary endpoint was a composite of cardiovascular death and HF rehospitalization after discharge. Results: Of the 1331 patients, 65 (4.9%) had the primary outcome events during a median follow-up period of 507 (interquartile range, 335-1106) days. The increase in both original and revised HFTPs was associated with an increased risk of the primary outcomes in a stepwise fashion with similar diagnostic ability. Conclusions: The original and revised HFTPs were both predictive of long-term HF-related outcomes in patients with acute MI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. Yet, the original HFTPs may be sufficient to estimate HF risks after MI.

Prognostic Impact of Previous Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease on Short- and Long-Term Outcomes in Acute Myocardial Infarction. Am J Cardiol 2024; 217:18-24.

Abstract
Patients with previous atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) are typically managed by secondary prevention modalities; however, they may experience recurrent events. In acute myocardial infarction (MI), the prognostic effect of preexisting ASCVD on the short- and long-term outcomes remains uncertain. This retrospective, multicenter registry included 2,475 patients with acute MI who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. Previous ASCVD was defined as a history of ischemic events in the coronary, cerebral, and peripheral arterial territories. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to preexisting ASCVD. The primary end point was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, recurrent MI, and ischemic stroke during hospitalization and after discharge. The bleeding outcomes were also evaluated. Of the 2,475 patients, 475 (19.2%) had previous ASCVD. Patients with previous ASCVD were older and likely to have more co-morbidities than those without ASCVD. During hospitalization, the MACE rates were higher in the ASCVD group than in the non-ASCVD group (16.4% vs 9.6%, p <0.001). Similarly, during a median follow-up of 542 days after discharge, patients with previous ASCVD had an increased risk of MACEs than those without ASCVD (13.4% vs 5.6%, p <0.001). The multivariable analyses identified previous ASCVD as a factor that was significantly associated with MACEs after discharge. Major bleeding events occurred more frequently in the ASCVD group than in the non-ASCVD group. In conclusion, preexisting ASCVD was often observed in patients with acute MI and was particularly associated with long-term ischemic outcomes after discharge; thus, further clinical investigations are needed in this vulnerable patient subset.

Abstract
Aims A substantial proportion of the patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) have none of the of standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRFs): hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolaemia and smoking. The aim of this analysis was to compare clinical outcomes after PCI according to the number of SMuRFs. Methods Patients with an indication for a PCI were stratified based upon the number of SMuRFs: 0, 1, 2 or 3-4. The primary outcome was target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiac death, target vessel-related myocardial infarction or clinically driven target lesion revascularization at 1-year. Inverse weighted propensity score (IWPS) adjustment was performed to adjust for differences in baseline characteristics. Results The prevalence of SMuRFs was: 0 SMuRF 16.4 %; 1 SMuRF 27.8 %; 2 SMuRFs 34.7 % and 3-4 SMuRFs 21.1 %. Patients without SMuRFs were younger, more likely to be male and had less complex coronary artery disease. The incidence of TLF increased with the number of SMuRFs: 2.65 %, 2.75 %, 3.23 %, and 4.24 %, Ptrend < 0.001. The relative risk (RR) for a TLF was 60 % higher (95 % confidence interval 1.32-1.93, p < 0.01) for patients with 3-4 SMuRFs compared to patients without SMuRFs. The trend remained (Ptrend < 0.01) after IWPS with TLF rates of 2.88 %, 2.64 %, 2.88 % and 3.65 %. The RR for a TLF was 27 % higher (95 % CI 1.05-1.53, p < 0.01). Conclusion The incidence of clinical events at 1-year increased with the number of SMuRFs. While patients without SMuRFs have a relatively favourable risk profile, more research is needed to optimize therapeutic management in the majority of patients.

Abstract
Background Mean platelet volume (MPV), reflecting platelet size and activation, has been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and mortality. Yet, its prognostic significance in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains uncertain. This study investigates whether elevated MPV levels upon admission in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients predict adverse in-hospital outcomes after primary PCI. Objectives The aim of this study was to measure MPV in patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI and to evaluate its association with in-hospital outcomes such as death, recurrent myocardial infarction, heart failure, and bleeding. Methods We enrolled 400 consecutive patients with STEMI (mean age 56.20 years, 356 males, 44 females) who underwent primary PCI at our center. We obtained MPV values from complete blood count tests performed at admission. We divided the patients into two groups based on the normal MPV range of 7.40 to 12 fL. We compared the baseline characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of the two groups. We used Cox proportional hazards regression analysis to adjust for potential confounders and evaluate the impact of MPV on in-hospital outcomes. Results There was no significant difference in MPV values between the two groups (9.10 ± 1.20 fL vs. 9.00 ± 1.10 fL, p = 0.54). Patients who died exhibited higher age, male predominance, hypertension, diabetes, a lower left ventricular ejection fraction, lower levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and lower levels of hemoglobin and hematocrit compared to survivors. MPV was not associated with any of the in-hospital outcomes in the unadjusted or adjusted analyses. Conclusion In this cohort of patients with STEMI who underwent primary PCI, admission MPV was not a predictor of in-hospital outcomes. Further studies are needed to clarify the role of MPV in the pathophysiology and prognosis of ACS.

Diagnostic ability of Japanese version of high bleeding risk criteria for ischemic outcomes in patients with acute myocardial infarction. Heart Vessels 2024; 39:1-9.

Abstract
The Japanese version of high bleeding risk (J-HBR) criteria was domestically proposed to identify patients at HBR after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The applicability of J-HBR on bleeding events has been validated, while whether J-HBR predicts ischemic events is uncertain. This bi-center registry included 904 patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) undergoing primary PCI. Patients were stratified by the J-HBR major (1 point) and minor (0.5 point) criteria. Patients with J-HBR ≥ 1 point were diagnosed as having HBR. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), a composite of cardiovascular death, recurrent MI, and ischemic stroke, after discharge. Of the 904 patients, 451 (49.9%) had the J-HBR. The primary endpoint more frequently occurred in patients with J-HBR than in those without (10.9% vs. 4.9%, p < 0.001) during the median follow-up period of 522 days. Probability of MACE was progressively increased with the increase in the number of J-HBR major and minor criteria, in which severe anemia, severe chronic kidney disease, prior heart failure, peripheral artery disease, and prior ischemic stroke were identified as significant factors associated with MACE. In patients with acute MI undergoing PCI, the J-HBR criteria were predictive for ischemic outcomes after discharge, suggesting that the J-HBR criteria may be useful to identify patients at high bleeding and ischemic risks.

[PMID: 38173819 PMCID: PMC10761535 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1235667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
Aim A considerable proportion of patients admitted with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) have no standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRFs: hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and cigarette smoking). The outcomes of this population following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are debated. Further, sex differences within this population have yet to be established. Methods This retrospective cohort study included 7,847 patients with ACS who underwent PCI. The study outcomes were in-hospital mortality, all-cause mortality, and major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events (MACCE). The association between the absence of SMuRFs (SMuRF-less status) and outcomes among all the patients and each sex was assessed using logistic and Cox proportional hazard regressions. Results Approximately 11% of the study population had none of the SMuRFs. During 12.13 [11.99-12.36] months of follow-up, in-hospital mortality (adjusted-odds ratio (OR):1.51, 95%confidence interval (CI): 0.91-2.65, P:0.108), all-cause mortality [adjusted-hazard ratio (HR): 1.01, 95%CI: 0.88-1.46, P: 0.731], and MACCE (adjusted-HR: 0.93, 95%CI:0.81-1.12, P: 0.412) did not differ between patients with and without SMuRFs. Sex-stratified analyses recapitulated similar outcomes between SMuRF+ and SMuRF-less men. In contrast, SMuRF-less women had significantly higher in-hospital (adjusted-OR: 3.28, 95%CI: 1.92-6.21, P < 0.001) and all-cause mortality (adjusted-HR:1.41, 95%CI: 1.02-3.21, P: 0.008) than SMuRF+ women. Conclusions Almost one in 10 patients with ACS who underwent PCI had no SMuRFs. The absence of SMuRFs did not confer any benefit in terms of in-hospital mortality, one-year mortality, and MACCE. Even worse, SMuRF-less women paradoxically had an excessive risk of in-hospital and one-year mortality.

Abstract
AIMS Several scoring systems, including the ABCD-GENE and HHD-GENE scores incorporating clinical and genetic factors, have been developed to identify patients likely to have high platelet reactivity on P2Y12 inhibitors, leading to increased risks of ischemic events. However, genetic testing is not widely available in daily practice. We aimed to evaluate the differential impact of clinical factors in the scores on ischemic outcomes in patients treated with clopidogrel and prasugrel. METHODS This bi-center registry included 789 patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and treated with either clopidogrel or prasugrel at discharge. The relations of the number of clinical factors included in the ABCD-GENE (age ≥ 75 years, body mass index >30 kg/m2, chronic kidney disease, and diabetes) and HHD-GENE (hypertension, hemodialysis, and diabetes) scores to the primary endpoint of major cardiovascular events after discharge, a composite of death, recurrent MI, and ischemic stroke, were evaluated. RESULTS The number of clinical factors in the ABCD-GENE score was not predictive of ischemic outcomes after discharge in patients treated with clopidogrel and/or prasugrel, while the increase in the number of clinical factors of the HHD-GENE score was associated with an increased risk of the primary endpoint in a stepwise manner in patients on a P2Y12 inhibitor. CONCLUSIONS Clinical factors listed in the HHD-GENE score may help stratify ischemic risks in patients with acute MI treated with clopidogrel and prasugrel, whereas risk stratification without genetic testing in patients treated with clopidogrel may be challenging.

Abstract
Inflammatory rheumatological conditions, also known as inflammatory rheumatic conditions (IRC), constitute a category of autoimmune and inflammatory ailments primarily affecting the musculoskeletal system, encompassing the joints, muscles, and connective tissues. The objective of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the impact of inflammatory rheumatological conditions (IRC) on post-acute coronary syndrome (ACS) outcomes. This study was performed as per the preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. The PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases were searched by two authors without any language constraints from January 1, 2015, to October 15, 2023. The primary outcome assessed in this meta-analysis was all-cause mortality. Other outcomes included myocardial infarction and revascularization. A total of 11 studies were included in this meta-analysis. The risk of all-cause mortality was significantly higher in patients with IRC compared to non-IRC patients (RR: 1.12, 95% CI: 1.00 to 1.26, p-value: 0.04). There is a significantly higher risk of myocardial infarction and revascularization in patients with IRC as opposed to those without IRC. Furthermore, while there was a higher risk of stroke in the IRC group compared to the non-IRC group, this disparity did not reach statistical significance. Future research should focus on specific inflammatory rheumatoid conditions, a comprehensive evaluation of cardiovascular events, and targeted interventions to enhance patient outcomes in this vulnerable population.

Characteristics and Outcomes of Young Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction Without Standard Modifiable Risk Factors. Am J Cardiol 2023; 202:81-89. [PMID: 37423175 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjcard.2023.06.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2023] [Revised: 05/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023]
Abstract
Patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) with no standard modifiable risk factors (SMuRFs: hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking) have worse short-term mortality than those with SMuRFs. Whether this association extends to younger patients is unclear. A retrospective cohort study was performed of patients aged 18 to 45 years with STEMI at 3 Australian hospitals between 2010 and 2020. Nonatherosclerotic causes of STEMI were excluded. The primary outcome was 30-day all-cause mortality. Secondary outcomes included 1 and 2-year mortality. Cox proportional hazards analysis was used. Of 597 patients, the median age was 42 (interquartile range 38 to 44) years, 85.1% were men and 8.4% were SMuRF-less. Patients who are SMuRF-less were >2 times more likely to have cardiac arrest (28.0% vs 12.6%, p = 0.003); require vasopressors (16.0% vs 6.8%, p = 0.018), mechanical support (10.0% vs 2.3%, p = 0.046), or intensive care admission (20.0% vs 5.7%, p <0.001); and have higher rate of left anterior descending artery infarcts than those with SMuRFs (62.0% vs 47.2%, p = 0.045). No significant differences in thrombolysis or percutaneous intervention were observed. Guideline-directed medical therapy at discharge was high (>90%), and not different in the SMuRF-less. 30-day mortality was almost fivefold higher in the SMuRF-less (hazard ratio 4.70, 95% confidence interval 1.66 to 13.35, p = 0.004), remaining significant at 1 and 2 years. In conclusion, young patients who are SMuRF-less have a higher 30-day mortality after STEMI than their counterparts with SMuRFs. This may be partially mediated by higher rates of cardiac arrest and left anterior descending artery territory events. These findings further highlight the need for improved prevention and management of SMuRF-less STEMI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic systemic inflammatory diseases (CSIDs) such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are reportedly associated with an increased risk of ischemic cardiovascular events including acute myocardial infarction (MI). However, data are limited on clinical characteristics and ischemic and bleeding outcomes after acute MI in patients with CSIDs. METHODS This bi-center registry included a total of 1001 patients with acute MI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. CSIDs included inflammatory rheumatological conditions (RA, systemic lupus erythematosus, vasculitis, etc.) and organ-specific diseases (chronic hepatitis, psoriasis, inflammatory bowel disease, etc.). The primary endpoint was net adverse clinical events (NACE), a composite of ischemic (all-cause death, MI, and ischemic stroke) and major bleeding (Bleeding Academic Research Consortium type 3 or 5) events, during hospitalization and after discharge. RESULTS Of the 1001 patients, 58 (5.8%) had CSIDs. The proportion of women was higher in patients with CSIDs than those without (37.9% vs. 22.1%, p = 0.009). During the hospitalization, no significant differences in the primary endpoint of NACE were observed between patients with and without CSIDs (10.3% vs. 12.7%, p = 0.84). During the median follow-up of 42.6 months after discharge, patients with CSIDs had a higher risk of NACE (22.5% vs. 10.1%, p = 0.01) than those without, mainly driven by an increased risk of ischemic events (18.4% vs. 8.4%, p = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS A small but significant proportion of patients with acute MI (5.8%) had CSIDs. While the incidence of in-hospital events was similar, patients with CSIDs had worse outcomes after discharge, suggesting that further clinical investigations and therapeutic approaches are needed in this patient subset.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Identification of and therapeutic approaches to standard modifiable risk factors (SMuRFs), including hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and smoking, have led to improved survival of patients at risk for coronary events. However, recent studies have indicated that a significant proportion of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have no SMuRFs. We aimed to assess in-hospital outcomes and the prevalence of these patients using the Japanese nationwide percutaneous coronary intervention (J-PCI) registry. METHODS The J-PCI is a procedure-based registration program in Japan. A total of 115,437 PCI procedures were performed on patients with AMI between January 2019 and December 2020. The participants were divided into 2 groups: those with at least 1 SMuRF and those without any SMuRFs. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. RESULTS Of the 115,437 patients with AMI, 1,777 (1.6%) had no SMuRFs. Patients without SMuRFs were older; more likely to have left main disease; and more likely to present with heart failure, cardiogenic shock, and cardiac arrest than those with SMuRFs, resulting in higher rates of mechanical circulatory support use and impaired post-PCI coronary blood flow. In-hospital mortality was significantly higher in patients without SMuRFs than in those with SMuRFs (18.3% vs 5.3%, P < .001), irrespective of the presence or absence of ST-segment elevation. CONCLUSIONS In Japan, where annual health checks are mandated under universal health care coverage, the vast majority of patients with AMI undergoing PCI have SMuRFs. However, although small in number, patients without SMuRFs are more likely to present with life-threatening conditions and have worse in-hospital survival.

Abstract
Among patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) complicated by cardiogenic shock (CS), in-hospital mortality remains high. In the present study, we aimed to identify factors associated with clinical outcomes of acute MI patients with CS in a contemporary setting. A total of 1102 patients with acute MI undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention were included, among whom 196 (17.8%) were complicated by CS. The primary outcome was all-cause death during hospitalization, and factors associated with in-hospital mortality were explored in patients with acute MI and CS. Of the 196 patients with acute MI complicated by CS, 77 (39.3%) died during hospitalization. The rates of non-ST-segment elevation MI (NSTEMI) (33.8% vs. 19.3%, p = 0.02) and culprit lesion in the left main or left anterior descending coronary artery (68.8% vs. 47.9%, p = 0.004) were higher, while left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was lower (24.4 ± 11.7% vs. 39.7 ± 13.8%, p < 0.001) in non-survivors than in survivors. Multivariable analysis identified NSTEMI presentation and lower LVEF as independent predictors of in-hospital death. In conclusion, NSTEMI and low LVEF were identified as factors associated with higher in-hospital mortality. The identification of even higher-risk subsets and targeted therapeutic strategies may be warranted to improve survival of patients with acute MI and CS.
