The size of the infarction is a major determinant of both the risk of death and the likelihood of subsequent heart failure

ss initial perfusion defect - final infarct size

Salvage index = initial perfusion defect

J Nucl Med 2004; 45:725–729

Conclusion: This study clearly demonstrated that salvage index predicts mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction after reperfusion therapy

ss

Research during the past two decades has tried to elucidate the critical steps in the injury and subsequent killing of myocardial cells, with

the hope that antagonizing these steps may provide new cardioprotective therapies

Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol (December 9, 2004)

In canine models of myocardial infarction, low dose, intravenous administration ofthe highly selective adenosine A2A receptor agonist, ATL-146e, significantly reducedinfarct size , both as a pretreatment and when administered just prior to reperfusion,

Conclusion: Preischemic body selenium status is a major determinant of the outcome of myocardial ischemia in vivo in rats probably because it influences the cellular antioxidant activity.

In humans, Reduced Cx43 expression ( Electrical uncoupling) induced by acute ischemia enhances

arrhythmogenesis, but it may also protect the heart by limiting intercellular spread of chemical mediators of

injury

Conclusion: Cx43-deficient mice develop smaller infarcts than wild-type mice following coronary ligation

New therapies designed to decrease the risk of arrhythmias by enhancing intercellular communication could lead to larger infarcts caused by persistent coronary occlusion

CRP levels increase dramatically in patients with

myocardial infarction beginning 6 hours after the onset of ischemia and peaking at approximately 50 hours

CRP values after acute myocardial infarction predict outcome, including death and heart failure

Pepys et al. designed a small molecule, 1,6-bis(phosphocholine)-hexane ( Bis(PC)-H), that binds CRP and prevents interactions between CRP and its various ligands, as well as CRP-induced complement activation

Reduction of infarct size is very important

The size of the infarction is a major determinant of both the risk of death and the likelihood of subsequent heart failure

Measures for infarct size reduction should start before occurance of event
