Peculiarities of propranolol pharmacokinetics in patients with acute myocardial infarction were determined after oral administration of 80 mg of the drug and compared with control group of patients with stage II hypertensive disease: a significant increase of Cmax, Tmax and AUC without changes of kel and T1/2. A direct linear correlation (r = 0.86, p = 0.02) and inverse linear correlation (r = -0.54, p = 0.1) with the duration of the disease were revealed.

Purpose: Myocardial injury, indicated by an elevation of high-sensitive cardiac Troponin (hs-cTnT), is a frequent stroke-related complication. Most studies investigated patients with ischemic stroke, but only little is known about its occurrence in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This study aimed to assess the frequency, predictors, and implications of myocardial injury in ICH patients.

Background: Patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) with chest pain often have abnormal high-sensitivity troponin (hsTn). However, only about 5% have an acute coronary syndrome. We aimed to assess the safety, feasibility and utility of a clinical disposition protocol including outpatient observation with stress cardiac-magnetic-resonance (CMR) in intermediate-risk patients with abnormal hsTn of unclear etiology.

Pathological left ventricular remodeling is a complex process following an acute myocardial infarction, leading to architectural disorganization of the cardiac tissue. This phenomenon is characterized by sterile inflammation and the exaggerated development of fibrotic tissue, which is non-contractile and poorly conductive, responsible for organ dysfunction and heart failure. At present, specific therapies are lacking for both prevention and treatment of this condition, and no biomarkers are currently validated to identify at-risk patients.

Background: Gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) is a severe and potentially life-threatening complication in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), significantly affecting prognosis during hospitalization. Early identification of high-risk patients is essential to reduce complications, improve outcomes, and guide clinical decision-making.
Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning (ML)-based model for predicting in-hospital GIB in patients with AMI, identify key risk factors, and evaluate the clinical applicability of the model for risk stratification and decision support.

Right ventricular myocardial infarction (RVMI) is a significant and distinct form of acute myocardial infarction associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. It occurs most commonly due to proximal right coronary artery obstruction, often in conjunction with inferior myocardial infarction. RVMI poses unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges due to the anatomical and functional differences between the right and left ventricles.
