Demographic and clinical data were collected retrospectively from a tertiary hospital for all patients with AMI (2011-2017). Study groups based on support type were defined: (1) employed partner (served as the reference group); (2) unemployed partner; (3) no partner, family support; (4) institutional or benefit-dependent; and (5) non-kin support (caregiver). Ten-year all-cause mortality risk was assessed and compared between the groups. We identified 2652 AMI patients with recorded support type: mean age 67.6 (SD = 14) years, 66% male; 40% had no partner, followed by those with an unemployed partner (31%). Over the follow-up of (median) 7.6 years, 1471 patients died; significantly higher mortality rates wereJournal of cardiovascular development and disease147https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC12028073biostudies-literatureSocial Support and 10-Year Mortality Following Acute Myocardial Infarction.PMC12028073Shiyovich APlakht YBetesh-Abay BfalseSocial Support and 10-Year Mortality Following Acute Myocardial Infarction.This study investigates social support type and long-term mortality following AMI.
