Coronary thromboembolism with subsequent myocardial infarction is a rare complication of atrial fibrillation. The authors present the history of a 55-year-old male with a history of acute myocardial infarction caused by thromboembolism in the distal part of left anterior descending coronary artery and paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, who presented one year later with new chest pain, ST-segment elevation and atrial fibrillation. Coronarography confirmed the presence of thrombus in the circumflex coronary artery. Transesophageal echocardiogram showed left atrial appendage thrombus. To the knowledge of the authors this is the first report of recurrent myocardial infarction caused by atrial fibrillation. Orv. Hetil., 2016, 157(5), 191–193.

Abstract Background The incidence of atrial fibrillation in acute coronary syndromes (ACS) ranges from 3% to 25%. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the demographic and baseline clinical characteristics, cardiovascular risk factors and comorbid conditions between patients (pts) with concomitant atrial fibrillation (AF) to those without AF in patients suffering from ACS without previous coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) and/or percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods The MINOCA-TR study has a cross-sectional, multicenter, observational design and was conducted with 32 interventional cardiology centers in our country. Heart rhythm at emergency admission, demographical, clinical and angiographic data was recorded for each patient. Patients with stable coronary artery disease, unstable angina pectoris and with type 4/5 myocardial infarction were excluded from study population. Results A total of 1626 patients (male: 70.7%, mean age: 61.4±12.5 years) were classified according to the presence of AF. The rate of AF was 3.1% in study population. This group was older (73.4 vs. 61.0 years, p<0.001) and AF was more common among females (43.1% vs. 28.7%, p=0.027). The frequency of AF was slightly higher (7.8%) in MINOCA group (p=ns). STEMI presentation was more common in patients without AF (31.3% vs. 46.9%, p=0.028). LVEF was significantly lower in ACS patients with AF (44.1% vs. 49.4%, p=0.039). The frequency of AF was significantly higher (3.7%) in MINOCA group. AF vs. non-AF ACS pts w/o prior revasc Parameter ACS with AF ACS without AF p value Age (years) 73.4 (±9.4) 61.0 (±12.4) <0.001 Female (%) 43.1 28.7 0.027 cTnT levels (pg/dL) median (IQR) 15.2 (96) 15.3 (428) 0.421 STEMI (%) 31.3 46.9 0.028 LVEF (%) 44.1 (±12.2) 49.4 (±10.4) 0.039 MINOCA (%) 7.8 6.6 0.743 STEMI: ST-segment elevation MI; NSTEMI: Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction; LVEF: left ventricular ejection fraction; MINOCA: Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries. Conclusions The frequency of AF was relatively lower in patients suffering from an ACS without prior revascularization history. They were older than patients without AF and were common in females. Non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction was significantly higher in the AF. The presence of MINOCA was similar between 2 groups.

Abstract Background Malnutrition and sarcopenia are common features of frailty. Prevalence of frailty among ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients is higher in women than men. Purpose Assess gender-based differences in the impact of nutritional risk index (NRI) and frailty in one-year mortality rate among STEMI patients following primary angioplasty (PA). Methods Cohort of 321 consecutive patients (64 years [54–75]; 22.4% women) admitted to a general ICU after PA for STEMI. NRI was calculated as 1.519 × serum albumin (g/L) + 41.7 × (actual body weight [kg]/ideal weight [kg]). Vulnerable and moderate to severe NRI patients were those with Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS)≥4 and NRI&lt;97.5, respectively. We used Kaplan-Meier survival model. Results Baseline and mortality variables of 4 groups (NRI-/CFS-; NRI+/CFS-; NRI+/CFS- and NRI+/CFS+) are depicted in the Table. Prevalence of malnutrition, frailty or both were significantly greater in women (34.3%, 10% y 21.4%, respectively) than in men (28.9%, 2.8% y 6.0%, respectively; P&lt;0.001). Women had greater mortality rate (20.8% vs. 5.2%: OR 4.78, 95% CI, 2.15–10.60, P&lt;0.001), mainly from cardiogenic shock (P=0.003). Combination of malnutrition and frailty significantly decreased cumulative one-year survival in women (46.7% vs. 73.3% in men, P&lt;0.001) Conclusion Among STEMI patients undergoing PA, the prevalence of malnutrition and frailty are significantly higher in women than in men. NRI and frailty had an independent and complementary prognostic impact in women with STEMI. Kaplan-Meier and Cox survival curves Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None
