Background：The prognostic value of Peak Early Diastolic Strain Rate (PEDSR) measured by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) in ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) is not clear.
Methods：420 first-STEMI patients from the EARLY Assessment of MYOcardial Tissue Characteristics by CMR in STEMI (EARLY-MYO-CMR) registry (NCT03768453) and 40 normal people were enrolled and followed up. The patients received timely percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within 12h and CMR within 1 week (median,5 days; range, 2-7 days) after infarction. LV circumferential, radial, longitudinal PEDSR and other routine CMR parameters were measured. Clinical end point was a composite major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) including cardiovascular death, re-infarction and re-hospitalization for heart failure.
Results：During follow-up (median: 52 months, inter-quartile range: 29–78 months), 73 (17.4%) patients experienced a MACE event. Compared with normal people, STEMI patients had lower PEDSR (circumf. PEDSR 0.77 vs. 1.27%/s, P < 0.001). Patients who developed MACEs also had lower PEDSR than patients who didn’t (circumf. PEDSR 0.64 vs. 0.78%/s, P < 0.001). Circumf. PEDSR can significantly predict MACEs with an AUC of 0.659 (95%CI 0.587-0.731, P < 0.001) which is not inferior to LVEF (0.659 vs. 0.651, P = 0.843), LVIS (0.659 vs. 0.661, P = 0.678) and LVMVO (0.659 vs. 0.666, P = 0.600). Circumf. PEDSR ≤ 0.665%/s is the independent predictive factor of MACEs in clinical (HR 2.099 [95%CI 1.273-3.461], P = 0.004) and CMR models (HR 1.795 [95%CI 1.065-3.026], P = 0.028). In Kaplan-Meier curve, patients with impaired PEDSR are more likely to experience MACEs (P < 0.001). When subdivided by LVEF, PEDSR still makes a significant difference to MACEs in patients with LVEF > 50.28% (P = 0.003) but not in reduced LVEF patients (P = 0.204). PEDSR is also incremental to LVEF (Continuous NRI 0.515 [95%CI 0.268-0.763], P < 0.001), LVIS (Continuous NRI 0.576 [95%CI 0.330-0.822], P < 0.001), and LVMVO (Continuous NRI 0.576 [95%CI 0.330-0.822], P < 0.001). Finally, worse TIMI flow post-PCI (HR 3.353 [95%CI 1.603-7.016], P = 0.001) and LVEF (HR 0.920 [95%CI 0.900, 0.940], P < 0.001) are the risk factors for PEDSR impairment.
Conclusions：CMR-derived PEDSR can significantly predict MACEs with the discriminative power not inferior to LVEF, LVIS and LVMVO. Circumf. PEDSR ≤ 0.665%/s is an independent predictive factor of MACEs and is incremental in the prognostic risk stratification of STEMI.
