The influence between plaque rupture and non-plaque rupture on clinical outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction after primary percutaneous coronary intervention: a prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Coronary atherosclerosis can lead to acute clinical events upon atherosclerotic plaque rupture (PR) or erosion and arterial thrombus formation. Identifying the effect of distinct plaque characteristics on clinical outcomes in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is critical for clinical therapy. Our goal was to ascertain the correlation between clinical outcome, long-term prognosis, and morphological plaque characteristics in STEMI.

Methods

The data used in this prospective cohort research came from a prior multicenter prospective cohort study (ChiCTR1800019923). One hundred and thirteen consecutive STEMI patients were involved in our cohort study. Patients with STEMI who received primary percutaneous coronary intervention (pPCI) within
