A close relationship between the ADN pool and one of the routes of free radical generation mediated by the xanthine oxidase system has been revealed during studies of changes in adenyl nucleotide metabolism in 140 patients with acute myocardial infarction. The metabolic disorders and changes in the activities of free-radical processes associated with them were found to correlate in patients with different forms of acute myocardial infarction during the acute stage of the disease. The authors consider that this correlation gives grounds for including antioxidative agents in the treatment protocols.

Background: He's team have recently developed a new Coronary Artery Tree description and Lesion EvaluaTion (CatLet) angiographic scoring system, which is capable of accounting for the variability in coronary anatomy, and risk-stratifying patients with coronary artery disease. Preliminary studies have demonstrated its superiority over the the Synergy between percutaneous coronary intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score with respect to outcome predictions for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. However, there are fewer studies on the prognostic in chronic coronary artery disease(CAD).

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) remains one of the most common causes for cardiogenic shock (CS), with high inpatient mortality (40-50 %). Studies have reported the use of pulmonary artery catheters (PACs) in decompensated heart failure, but contemporary data on their use to guide management of AMI-CS and in different SCAI stages of CS are lacking. We investigated the association of PACs and clinical outcomes in AMI-CS.

Cardiologists and gastroenterologists often encounter the coexistence of symptoms and functional abnormalities, but determining causation is more difficult.​​ In 1962 Smith and Papp first coined the term "linked angina". Their statement was preceded by the experiment whereby increase in bile duct pressure elicited the typical chest pain in patients with ischemic heart disease.
