Disparities in Myocardial Infarction Remodeling According to Gender

Not Applicable
Recruiting
Conditions
Myocardial Infarction
Ventricular Remodeling
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: cardiac imaging to assess left ventricular volumes and function
Registration Number
NCT06343844
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Angers
Brief Summary

Following myocardial infarction, female individuals demonstrate a poorer prognosis, characterized by elevated rates of mortality and heart failure. A primary hypothesis suggests unfavorable cardiac remodeling in women. This remodeling, defined as alterations in cardiac size and shape post-infarction, necessitates repeated non-invasive imaging for study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Asses left ventricular remodeling disparities between gendersbaseline; 3 months and 1 year after myocardial infarction onset

The primary outcome measure will be the occurrence of left ventricular remodeling (defined as a change in ventricular volume of more than 10% during follow-up) measured with cardiac imaging (echocardiography and MRI)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluate the evolution of remodeling at Month 33 months

Changes in ventricular volumes between acute phase and 3 months measured with cardiac imaging (echocardiography and MRI)

Assess remodeling changes between inclusion and Month 121 year

Changes in ventricular volumes between acute phase and 1 year measured with cardiac imaging (echocardiography and MRI)

Explore prognostic disparities between men and women.yearly, up to 10 years

Occurrence of complications and cardiovascular events (cardiovascular death, heart failure, stroke, or reinfarction)

Evaluate lifestyle habits up to 10 years: outcome physical activityyearly, up to 10 years

physical activity: lipid research clinics (LRC); 2 scales from 1 to 5, the greatest the less active

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: presence of endometriosisbaseline

presence or absence of endometriosis

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: presence of polycystic ovarybaseline

presence or absence of polycystic ovary

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: presence of uterine fibromabaseline

presence or absence of uterine fibroma

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: presence of hormonal therapybaseline

presence or absence of hormonal therapy

Assess the prevalence of comorbidities and their impact on the effect on the outcome: post-infarction cardiac remodeling with gender (cardiovascular risk factors, renal function, hepatic functionperipheral artery disease, way of life)3 months and 1 year

renal function: uremia and creatinine levels, combined with an assessment of the protein-to-creatinine ratio in urine samples, and a cyto-bacteriological examination of urine to detect hematuria; hepatic function: The Fibroscan® is a device that enables a non-invasive and efficient assessment of liver fibrosis and steatosis within minutes at the patient's bedside, providing an immediate result displayed on the device screen; peripheral artery disease: Doppler echocardiography of the supra-aortic trunks; way of life : dietetary, stress and physical activity scores common CV risk factors: prior history of hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, tobacco use, diabetes

Evaluate lifestyle habits up to 10 years: outcome diet scoreyearly, up to 10 years

Mediteranean diet score (MED): from 0 to 14, the greatest the more relevant for mediteranean diet

Evaluate lifestyle habits up to 10 years: outcome anxiety/depressionyearly, up to 10 years

Anxiety/Depression (A.D) score: 2 scales from 0 to 21, the greatest the more prone to either anxiety or depression

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: date of first periodbaseline

date of first period

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: pregnancybaseline

number of pregnancy

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: childrenbaseline

number of children

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: obstetrical eventbaseline

absence or presence of obstetrical events (hypertension, diabete, microsomia and macrosomia)

Assess the risk of remodeling based on specific parameters in female subjects: menopausebaseline

absence or presence of menopause
