Myocardial infarction is defined as sudden ischemic death of myocardial tissue. In the
clinical context, myocardial infarction is usually due to thrombotic occlusion of a coronary …

Myocardial infarction is the most common cause of cardiac injury and results in acute loss of
a large number of myocardial cells. Because the heart has negligible regenerative capacity …

Introduction and objectives The COVID-19 outbreak has had an unclear impact on the
treatment and outcomes of patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction …

Guidelines and Expert Consensus Documents produced by Task Forces, expert groups, or
consensus panels. The chosen experts in these writing panels are asked to provide …

Objectives This study sought to investigate the impact of post-infarct left ventricular (LV)
remodeling on outcomes in the contemporary era. Background LV remodeling after ST …

Fibroblasts are the predominant cell type in the cardiac interstitium. As the main matrix-
producing cells in the adult mammalian heart, fibroblasts maintain the integrity of the …

Objectives: Ejection fraction (EF) and end-systolic volume index (ESVI) are established
predictors of outcomes following ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We …

Background—Tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy is a reversible cause of heart failure.
We hypothesized that although left ventricular ejection fraction measurements normalize …

Myocardial infarction triggers an inflammatory cascade that results in healing and
replacement of the damaged tissue with scar. Cardiomyocyte necrosis triggers innate …

Myocardial infarction (MI) is defined as cardiomyocyte death in a clinical context consistent
with ischemic insult. MI remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality …
