Although mortality after ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (MI) is on the decline,
the number of patients developing heart failure as a result of MI is on the rise. Apart from …

Background: Inflammation is a key factor of myocardial damage in reperfused ST-segment–
elevation myocardial infarction. We hypothesized that colchicine, a potent anti-inflammatory …

The annual incidence of hospital admission for acute myocardial infarction lies between 90
and 312 per 100 000 inhabitants in Europe. Despite advances in patient care 1 year …

Background: Patients with left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction after myocardial infarction
are at a high risk of developing heart failure. The addition of neprilysin inhibition to renin …

Objectives: This study sought to establish the best definition of left ventricular adverse
remodeling (LVAR) to predict outcomes and determine whether its assessment adds …

Objectives Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is the gold-standard modality for the
assessment of left ventricular (LV) remodeling in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) …

Background—Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a robust tool to evaluate left ventricular
ejection fraction (LVEF), myocardial salvage index, microvascular obstruction, and …

Background: Cut off values for change in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and
LV end-systolic volume (LVESV) by cardiovascular magnetic resonance following ST …

Background A comprehensive cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in reperfused ST-
segment myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients can be challenging to perform and can be …

Post-ischemic left ventricular (LV) remodeling is a biologically complex process involving
myocardial structure, LV shape, and function, beginning early after myocardial infarction (MI) …
