Clinical implications of perioperative and periprocedural myocardial infarction

Nature Reviews - Cardiology

Nature Reviews Cardiology, Published online: 12 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41569-025-01137-y Differing definitions and questionable prognostic significance have caused confusion and controversy around the applicability of the current definitions of periprocedural and perioperative myocardial infarction in clinical practice.

Ischaemia-reperfusion time differences in ST-elevation myocardial infarction in very young patients: a cohort study

Open Heart

Introduction ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is one of the most prevalent presentations in young patients. It is essential to emphasise that each minute of delay in providing medical care is negatively correlated to the patient’s prognosis.

Hypoxia in myocardial infarction and natriuretic peptides

Open Heart

The function of oxygen gradients should be correlated with circulating natriuretic peptides to achieve better sensitivity in plasma measurements of natriuretic peptides in myocardial infarction.

Bibliometric analysis of youth myocardial infarction research (1980–2023)

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

IntroductionCardiovascular diseases include myocardial infarction, a high mortality disease. Myocardial infarction patients are becoming younger, typically defined as patients under 45 years of age. We searched the WoSCC between 1980 and 2023 for research papers and reviews on myocardial infarction in youth.

Angiogenesis after acute myocardial infarction: a bibliometric -based literature review

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

ObjectiveThe prevalence of acute myocardial infarction, a severe ischemic cardiac disease, is on the rise annually. Over the past two decades, studies related to angiogenesis in acute myocardial infarction have increased rapidly. The collection of literature was gathered using the Web of Science Core Collection database.

Genetically predicted smoking and body mass index mediate the relationship between insomnia and myocardial infarction

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the causal relationship between insomnia and the risk of myocardial infarction (MI) and explore potential mediators such as smoking initiation, alcohol consumption and body mass index (BMI) using mendelian randomization (MR) analysis.MethodsData from 1,207,228 individuals of European ancestry were obtained from (..)

Cardiac cells and mesenchymal stem cells derived extracellular vesicles: a potential therapeutic strategy for myocardial infarction

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Despite improvements in clinical outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), mortality rates remain high, indicating the need for further understanding of the pathogenesis and developing more effective cardiac protection strategies.
