Background Anticoagulation therapy reduces stroke risk in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but it is often underused ...

However, there are also documents emphasising that OAC could be considered in patients with specific NICM, such as those with Takotsubo syndrome, LV myocardial densification insufficiency, ...

Just as importantly, clinical trials have also strongly suggested that the early administration of aspirin can substantially reduce the size of the myocardial infarction. This can greatly diminish the ...

Cardiac fibrosis plays an indispensable role in cardiac tissue homeostasis and repair after myocardial infarction (MI). The cardiac fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation and extracellular matrix ...

Long-term treatment with beta-blockers may not lower the risk of death or myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with MI, a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of ≥50% and coronary ...

The circadian rhythm of myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) remains disputable and no studies have directly evaluated the relationship between nocturnal hypoxemia ...

Given changes in patient characteristics and treatments over time, a contemporary risk model for patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI) is needed. Data from 313 825 acute MI hospitalizations ...

Myocardial infarction was identified on LGE-CMR, for which transmural extent was graded using a 5-point segmental scale (0 = no hyperenhancement; 1 = 1–25%; 2 = 26–50%; 3 = 51–75%; 4 = 76–100%) ...
