Effect of Thyroid Hormone on Post-Myocardial Infarction Remodeling and Prognosis in STEMI Patients

Effect of Thyroid Hormone on Post-Myocardial Infarction Remodeling and Prognosis in STEMI Patients

This study aims to determine whether thyroid hormone levels are predictive of cardiac remodeling following myocardial infarction and the prognosis in patients with STEMI receiving primary percutaneous coronary intervention.

Inclusion Criteria:

• with a confirmed STEMI diagnosis
• undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (presenting <12h after symptom onset)
• patients agreed and provided informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

• past history of myocardial infarction or percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass graft
• past history of heart failure (LVEF<40%) or myocardiopathy or atrial fibrillation
• past history of thyroid diseases, or were treated with amiodarone, dopamine, or corticosteroids before hospital admission
• contraindicating to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging
