2.HIGHER ST-SEGMENT ELEVATION IN LEAD III THAN LEAD II IN ACUTE INFERIOR MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION CAN BE A PREDICTOR OF SHORT-TERM MORBIDITY AND MORTALITY

open access: yesThe Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
Background:The incidence of mortality and complications are high in patients with acute inferior wall ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with right ventricular involvement, which has been reported to be an independent predictor of significant ...

Trends in Acute Myocardial Infarction by Race and Ethnicity

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Trends in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) incidence rates for diverse races/ethnicities are largely unknown, presenting barriers to understanding the role of race/ethnicity in AMI occurrence.

Sex Disparities in Diagnostic Evaluation and Revascularization in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction—A 15‐Year Nationwide Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Although sex disparities in the diagnostic evaluation and revascularization of patients with acute myocardial infarction are well documented, no study has evaluated longitudinal trends in these disparities.

ST elevation without myocardial infarction [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2014
Acute myocarditis may mimic myocardial infarction because the affected patients report ‘classical’ chest pain; the ECG changes and echocardiography are identical to those observed in acute coronary syndromes, and serum markers are increased. We describe a case with ST segment elevation on admission ECG, and coronary angiography was normal.

The diagnostic utility of creatine kinase-MB versus total creatine phosphokinase ratio in patients with non-ST elevation myocardial infarction from unstable angina

open access: yesSAGE Open Medicine, 2023
Objective: The present study seeks to find a way to quickly and correctly differentiate myocardial infarction from unstable angina by measuring the creatine kinase-MB/creatine phosphokinase ratio and comparing in non-ST elevation myocardial infarction ...

Significance of reciprocal ST segment depression in ST elevation myocardial infarction

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017
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.

Likelihood and predictors of ST-elevation in patients hospitalized for myocardial infarction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Emergency treatment options in myocardial infarction are guided by presence or absence of ST-elevations in electrocardiography. Occurrence and factors associated with ST-presentation in different population groups are however inadequately known.To ...

Occluded Coronary Artery among Non-ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients in Department of Cardiology of a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2023
Introduction: Non-ST elevation myocardial infarction is frequently thought to be caused by incomplete blockage of the culprit artery, whereas ST elevation myocardial infarction is frequently thought to be caused by total occlusion of the culprit artery.
