Significance of reciprocal ST segment depression in ST elevation myocardial infarction
Background: The significance of reciprocal ST segment depression during acute myocardial infarction has been an area of debate, whether it is a sign of multivessel disease, ischemia at a distance or merely a benign electrical phenomenon.

Precordial ST-Segment Elevation
The differential diagnosis of ST-segment elevation on electrocardiogram is multifaceted. Particularly, in cases of precordial ST-segment elevation, considering anterior myocardial infarction is crucial.

ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]
ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is the most acute manifestation of coronary artery disease and is associated with great morbidity and mortality. A complete thrombotic occlusion developing from an atherosclerotic plaque in an epicardial coronary vessel is the cause of STEMI in the majority of cases.

Neuropeptide‐Y levels in ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction: relationship with coronary microvascular function, heart failure, and mortality [PDF]
Background The sympathetic cotransmitter, neuropeptide Y (NPY), is released into the coronary sinus during ST‐segment–elevation myocardial infarction and can constrict the coronary microvasculature.

Prehospital Ticagrelor in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
The direct-acting platelet P2Y12 receptor antagonist ticagrelor can reduce the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events when administered at hospital admission to patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Whether prehospital administration of ticagrelor can improve coronary reperfusion and the clinical outcome is unknown.

Intravenous sodium nitrite in acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction: a randomized controlled trial (NIAMI) [PDF]
AimDespite prompt revascularization of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), substantial myocardial injury may occur, in part a consequence of ischaemia reperfusion injury (IRI). There has been considerable interest in therapies that may reduce IRI.

Bivalirudin during primary PCI in acute myocardial infarction. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Treatment with the direct thrombin inhibitor bivalirudin, as compared with heparin plus glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, results in similar suppression of ischemia while reducing hemorrhagic complications in patients with stable angina and ...

Helicobacter pylori Seropositivity in Patients with Interleukin-1 Polymorphisms Is Significantly Associated with ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction. [PDF]
Helicobacter pylori infection and interleukin-1 polymorphisms are associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer. We examined the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori seropositivity and interleukin-1 polymorphisms between ST-segment elevation ...

Clopidogrel discontinuation after acute coronary syndromes: frequency, predictors and associations with death and myocardial infarction--a hospital registry-primary care linked cohort (MINAP-GPRD). [PDF]
AIMS: Adherence to evidence-based treatments and its consequences after acute myocardial infarction (MI) are poorly defined. We examined the extent to which clopidogrel treatment initiated in hospital is continued in primary care; the factors predictive ...
