Significance of ST‐Segment elevation in V4R lead in patients with anterior myocardial infarction
Background There is some evidence of the association between ST‐segment elevation in the V4R chest lead and the likelihood of anterior wall myocardial infarction; however, the link of this phenomenon with the location and the severity of the coronary ...

Electrocardiographic Recognition of Unprotected Left Main ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
ST-segment elevation in aVR has traditionally been used for electrocardiographic identification of left main coronary artery (LM) myocardial infarction. We present two ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) cases with acute total occlusion of

Microvascular resistance predicts myocardial salvage and infarct characteristics in ST-elevation myocardial infarction [PDF]
<b>Background:</b> The pathophysiology of myocardial injury and repair in patients with ST‐elevation myocardial infarction is incompletely understood. We investigated the relationships among culprit artery microvascular resistance, myocardial
