The basics of pathogenesis, clinic and diagnosis of myocardial reperfusion syndrome are considered. Myocardial reperfusion syndrome is defined. Its relevance as one of the most poorly studied and formidable complications of cardiac reperfusion in myocardial infarction with elevation of the S-T segment has been explained. A brief review of the historical review of this problem and such types of manifestations of myocardial reperfusion syndrome as: diastolic myocardial dysfunction, post-reperfusion disturbances of the heart rhythm, the phenomenon of no-reflow and irreversible damage to the myocardium are briefly reviewed. The modern views on the pathological physiology of diastolic myocardial dysfunction, post-reperfusion damage to the myocardium, and the no-reflow phenomenon are analyzed. A review of current views on the pathological physiology of the development of post-reperfusion disturbances in heart rhythm is carried out. The clinical picture and the effect on the hemodynamics of such a manifestation of myocardial reperfusion syndrome as diastolic myocardial dysfunction are described. A brief description of the clinical picture of irreversible post-reperfusion damage to the myocardium is given. The clinical picture and types of post-reperfusion rhythm disturbances are described. The diagnostics of the no-reflow phenomenon has been analyzed in detail, the coronary angiographic scales for assessing thrombolysis in myocardial infarction and for assessing myocardial perfusion are graphically shown. A description of the basics of diagnosing post-reperfusion disturbances in heart rhythm, diastolic myocardial dysfunction, and post-reperfusion irreversible damage to the myocardium is given. A brief description of the known in the world literature predictors of the development of myocardial reperfusion syndrome is presented.

Objectives: In this study, we aimed to assess the value of admission time CBC parameters in predicting post-primary PCI corrected TIMI frame count. Background: Recent years have witnessed a large series of studies evaluating different laboratory variables to predict no-reflow phenomenon following primary PCI (PPCI) in patients with STEMI. However, a general agreement about the most reliable predictor of the no-reflow phenomenon is challenging and also intriguing. Methods: The current study concluded 208 consecutive patients who underwent primary PCI for ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) from January 2014 to February 2016. Blood samples were obtained after taking ECG. Complete blood samples were collected and analyzed within 5 minutes from sampling. Post-PCI corrected Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) frame count was determined by one interventional cardiologist blinded to patients’ clinical data. The correlation between admission time blood parameters and post-primary PCI corrected TIMI frame count in patients with STEMI were assessed. Results: Corrected TIMI frame count was positively correlated with WBC count (R: 0.18, P-value: <0.01), neutrophil count (R: 0.34, P-value: <0.01), and platelet count (R: 0.23, P-value: <0.01) and negatively correlated with lymphocyte count (R: -0.2, P-value: <0.01). Multiple linear regression results demonstrated that corrected TIMI frame count was positively correlated with neutrophil count (P < 0·001) and platelet count (P < 0·001) and negatively correlated with lymphocyte count (p=0.004). Conclusion: High counts of WBC, neutrophil, and platelet and low count of lymphocyte may be predictors of no-reflow in STEMI patients undergoing PPCI. The clinical significance of such predictive parameters becomes clear as we consider the treatment approach in STEMI patients. Appropriate risk stratification leads to better treatment planning and allocation of resources.

Abstract Introduction Major adverse cardiovascular events in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) are still common despite the modern treatment approaches. It may be caused by the “no-reflow” phenomenon. One of the promising biomarkers for the coronary “no-reflow” phenomenon prediction is proinflammatory cytokine macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). Purpose To estimate the role of MIF in the prediction of early reperfusion myocardial injury in patients with STEMI. Methods The study involved 341 STEMI patients (78.6% male and 21.4% female) with an average age of 59.08±9.65 years. Control group of 12 healthy volunteers included. All patients were made to undergo a baseline investigation. In addition, the level of MIF determined twice during the first 12 hours of STEMI, before the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and after the procedure. Coronary blood flow evaluated using TIMI flow grade and myocardial blush grade (MBG). All patients had epicardial blood flow TIMI 3. The criteria for “no-reflow” diagnosis were myocardial perfusion at MBG 0 or MBG 1 level with complete recovery of epicardial blood flow or ST-segment resolution (rST) of less than 70% from baseline within 2 hours after PCI. All patients were divided into two groups according to MBG and rST after PCI more and less than 70%: 147 patients in the first group with MBG stage 0–1, 182 patients with MBG stage 2–3 Results 64% of STEMI patients had elevated MIF levels above the highest value in healthy controls (2778±217 ng/ml; 225±6,7 ng/ml; p=0,0003). The level of MIF biomarker, determined before PCI was significantly higher in the group of patients with MBG 0–1 in comparison to MBG 2–3. (4708±471 ng/ml vs 2914±347ng/ml; p=0,004). Using the multivariate regression analysis, the dependencies of the biomarker MIF on the parameters of the reperfusion myocardial injuries were obtained. MIF measured before revascularization as well as the patient's gender, was an independent predictor of MBG 0–1 and rST less than 70% (coefficients Beta 0,1; odd ratio 1,1; 95%confidential interval (CI) 1,0–1,2; p=0,037 and coefficient Beta 2,9; odd ratio 17.7; 95% CI 0,96–32; p=0,05, respectively). Conclusions The study revealed that MIF predicts reperfusion myocardial injury in patients with STEMI. Future investigations of the MIF biological effects are the perspective direction in the field of modern cardiology. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

<p><strong>Background</strong>. No-reflow phenomenon during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a significant clinical problem in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), and its predictors remain unclear.</p><p><strong>Aim</strong>. To develop a scoring system to predict the risk of no-reflow in patients undergoing PCI for STEMI.</p><p><strong>Methods</strong>. Data were collected from 1280 consecutive patients with STEMI (59.2±11.4 years, 74.2% men, 5.2% no-reflow) who were admitted to the coronary care unit and underwent PCI. Baseline clinical, angiographic and procedural variables were used to develop the risk score in a training dataset (n=888, 70%) which was then validated in a test dataset (n=392, 30%). A credit risk assessment tool was used to construct a precise screening tool for no-reflow.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>. The model comprised age, pain to revascularisation time, neutrophil count, admission plasma glucose level, initial TIMI flow and direct stenting as the only independent predictors of no-reflow. These factors were weighted and used to develop a risk score ranging from 0 to 7. In the training dataset, the optimal threshold score for predicting no-reflow was ≥35, with 69% sensitivity and 81% specificity (area under the curve (AUC) = 0.84, p &lt; 0.001). When these findings were applied to the test dataset, the AUC was 0.75 (p &lt; 0.001), with 70% sensitivity and 80% specificity.</p><p><strong>Conclusion</strong>. The score developed in this study, based on clinical, angiographic and procedural features, can be used with acceptable accuracy to predict no-reflow in STEMI patients treated by PCI.</p><p>Received 29 August 2019.

Abstract Background: The no-reflow phenomenon (NRP) is an important factor affecting the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). This study aims to investigate the association of circulating miR-660-5p with NRP in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing PPCI.Methods: Consecutive patients diagnosed with anterior STEMI within 12 h of pain onset were included in the study; in these patients, coronary angiography confirmed that the infarct-related artery was the left anterior descending (LAD) artery. Angiographic NRP was defined as a final TIMI flow of 2 or a final TIMI flow of 3 with a myocardial blush grade (MBG) < 2. High miR-660-5p was defined as a value in the third tertile. The relationship of circulating miR-660-5p with NRP was assessed using Spearman correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis.Results: Fifty-two eligible patients were finally included in this study (mean age: 56±12.4 years, >65 years: 53.8%, male: 76.9%, and mean BMI: 26.3±3.5). The incidence of NRP was 38.5%. Circulating miR-660-5p was significantly related to the mean platelet volume (MPV). Patients were divided into tertiles by miR-660-5p levels (Q1: ≤ 7.18, Q2: 7.18-11.31, Q3: > 11.31). Patients in the high microRNA-660-5p group had almost a 6-fold higher risk of NRP than those in the low microRNA-660-5p group [(odds ratio (OR)=5.68, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.40-23.07, p=0.015). When analysed by tertiles, consistent trends of an increasing relative odds of NRP were reported (OR1 for Q2 VS. Q1: 1.25, 95% CI: 0.27-5.73, p=0.77; OR2 for Q3 VS. Q1: 5.96, 95% CI: 1.33-26.66, p=0.02), even after multivariable adjustment. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that the microRNA-660-5p level of 10.17 was the best cut-off level to predict the incidence of the no-reflow phenomenon in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.768 (95% CI: 0.636-0.890).Conclusion: Circulating miR-660-5p was significantly associated with NRP, and it may be a useful biomarker to predict the incidence of NRP in patients with STEMI undergoing PPCI.
