Objective: To evaluate the predictive value of global longitudinal strain (GLS) measured by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) feature-tracking technique for left ventricular remodeling (LVR) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Methods: A total of 403 patients undergoing PCI for acute STEMI were prospectively recruited from multiple centers in China.CMR examinations were performed one week (7±2 days) and 6 months after myocardial infarction to obtain GLS, global radial strain (GRS), global circumferential strain (GCS), ejection fraction (LVEF) and infarct size (IS).The primary endpoint was LVR, defined as an increase of left ventricle end-diastolic volume by ≥20% or an increase of left ventricle end-systolic volume by ≥15% from the baseline determined by CMR at 6 months.Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive value of CMR parameters for LVR.
Results: LVR occurred in 101 of the patients at 6 months after myocardial infarction.Compared with those without LVR (=302), the patients in LVR group exhibited significantly higher GLS and GCS ( < 0.001) and lower GRS and LVEF ( < 0.001).Logistic regression analysis indicated that both GLS (OR=1.387, 95%: 1.223-1.573; < 0.001) and LVEF (OR=0.951, 95%: 0.914-0.990;=0.015) were independent predictors of LVR.ROC curve analysis showed that at the optimal cutoff value of-10.6%, GLS had a sensitivity of 74.3% and a specificity of 71.9% for predicting LVR.The AUC of GLS was similar to that of LVEF for predicting LVR (=0.146), but was significantly greater than those of other parameters such as GCS, GRS and IS ( < 0.05);the AUC of LVEF did not differ significantly from those of the other parameters (>0.05).
Conclusion: In patients receiving PCI for STEMI, GLS measured by CMR is a significant predictor of LVR occurrence with better performance than GRS, GCS, IS and LVEF.

Background: Stress hyperglycaemia ratio (SHR) has been reported to be independently and significantly associated with various adverse cardiovascular events as well as mortality. Moreover, in-hospital heart failure following acute myocardial infarction has been demonstrated to account for majority of all heart failure (HF) cases with anterior myocardial infarction showing higher rates of HF. However, the association between SHR and in-hospital HF following an anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has not been reported earlier.

Background: Recommended treatment after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) involves high-intensity statin therapy to achieve the low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) target of<1.4mmol/L (European guidelines), but many patients discontinue statins because of real or perceived side-effects. Whether body mass index (BMI) influences statin intolerance remains unclear.

Introduction: This study aimed to compare the long-term outcomes in a propensity matched population receiving either minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) using left internal thoracic artery (LITA) to the left anterior descending artery (LAD) or percutaneous coronary intervention using second generation everolismus-eluting stents (DES-PCI) in patients treated for isolated proximal LAD stenosis.
Methods: Between January 2012 and December 2017, 421 patients with a nonemergency status undergoing primary isolated proximal LAD revascularization were retrospectively analyzed and were divided into two groups: 111 patients receiving MIDCAB LITA to LAD and 310 patients receiving DES-PCI. Propensity score matching selected 111 pairs and both groups were comparable for all baseline characteristics and well balanced.

Objectives: To evaluate the impact of wearable devices when associated with usual care on the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in patients with ischemic heart disease compared with usual care alone.
Methods: Randomised clinical trials with patients aged 18 years and above with ischemic heart disease, using wearable devices and assessing at least one of the primary outcomes (myocardial infarction, stroke, cardiovascular mortality, or major adverse cardiovascular events) or secondary outcomes (all-cause mortality, hospitalisation, all arrhythmias, heart failure, unstable angina or revascularisation procedures) were included. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CINHAL, INAHTA and the Web of Science Core Collection were searched in April 2024.

Apelin is an endogenous ligand for the Apelin receptor and is a critical protective effector in myocardial infarction (MI). Nevertheless, these protective mechanisms are not fully understood. Ferroptosis is the major driving factor of MI.
