The cut-off value was set as 1.68 for the heart-rnediastinum ratio (HMR).展开更多

Despite a non-randomized study, it would provide an important contribution regarding TRA in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated with contemporary antitrombotic therapy such as tirofiban, which still remains unclear.展开更多

Zhang et al investigated the effect of 3 hours infusion of adenosine started just after passing of a coronary guidewire during primary percutaneous intervention on left ventricular function and infart size in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). They reported favorable results with adenosine infusion and, discussed some possible mechanisms and large studies in their article.1 For better understanding of adenosine-mediated cardioprotection, some additional information appears to be needed.展开更多
