NIRS-IVUS was used to measure the maximum lipid core burden index in 4 mm (maxLCBI4 mm) in the infarct-related lesions before PPCI. Delayed contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI was performed to evaluate MVO one week after PPCI.<h4>Results</h4>MVO was identified in 40 (33%) patients. MaxLCBI4 mm in the infarct-related lesion was significantly larger in the MVO group compared with the no-MVO group (median [interquartile range]: 745 [522-853] vs 515 [349-698], p<0.001). A multivariable logistic regression model showed that maxLCBI4 mm was an independent predictor of MVO (odds ratio: 24.7 [95% confidence interval: 2.5-248.0], p=0.006). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that maxLCBI4 mm >600 was the optimal cut-off value to predict MVO (Youden index=0.44 and area under the curve=0.71) with a sensitivity of 75% and a specificity of 69%.<h4>Conclusions</h4>Lipid content measured by NIRS in the infarct-related lesions was associated with the occurrence of MVO after PPCI in STEMI."],"journal":["EuroIntervention : journal of EuroPCR in collaboration with the Working Group on Interventional Cardiology of the European Society of Cardiology"],"pagination":["e999-e1006"],"full_dataset_link":["https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9724955"],"repository":["biostudies-literature"],"pubmed_title":["Near-infrared spectroscopy to predict microvascular obstruction after primary percutaneous coronary intervention."],"pmcid":["PMC9724955"],"pubmed_authors":["Wada T","Terada K","Madder RD","Akasaka T","Takahata M","Kubo T","Shiono Y","Nishi T","Higashioka D","Emori H","Khalifa AKM","Shimamura K","Ino Y"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Near-infrared spectroscopy to predict microvascular obstruction after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.","description":"<h4>Background</h4>Successful restoration of epicardial coronary artery patency by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) does not always lead to adequate reperfusion at the microvascular level.<h4>Aims</h4>This study sought to investigate the association between lipid-rich coronary plaque identified by near-infrared spectroscopy combined with intravascular ultrasound (NIRS-IVUS) and microvascular obstruction (MVO) detected by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after PPCI for STEMI.<h4>Methods</h4>We investigated 120 patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI.
