Lead Sponsor
Hospital Universitario Getafe
Brief Summary

Around 10% of patients with myocardial infarction (MI) present with nonobstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) which pathophysiology is often uncertain. The aim of the study is to evaluate inflammation and endothelial dysfunction biomarkers in MINOCA patients during both acute and stable phases, comparing them with those with MI and obstructive coronary arteries (MICAD).

Detailed Description

Prospective observational study in patients with Myocardial Infarction (MI) divided into two groups: MI with obstructive coronary arteries (MICAD) and MI with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA). Levels of interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, high-sensitivity C- reactive protein, and asymmetric dimethylarginine will be determined at three time points: within the 24 hours from the onset of pain, discharge, and two months after MI. The association of biomarkers, normalized by peak troponin value, with the risk of MINOCA will be evaluated using logistic regression.
