Relevance. Recurrent myocardial infarction and early postinfarction angina negatively affects on the prognosis of myocardial infarction. Aim. To evaluate myocardial infarction clinical features in men under 60 years old with recurrent myocardial infarction and early postinfarction angina to improve prevention and outcomes. Material and methods. The study included men aged 19-60 years old with type I myocardial infarction. Patients are divided into two age-comparable groups: I - the study group, with recurrent myocardial infarction - 79 patients; II - control, without it - 432 patients. A comparative assessment of the myocardial infarction clinical features frequency in selected groups were performed. Results. The studied groups did not differ in the frequency of the main variants of the myocardial infarction course. In patients of the study group more often than in the control group, a complicated course of the disease was observed (88.2 and 50.2%, respectively; p < 0.0001), deaths (13.6 and 3.4%; p < 0.0001). Complications in the study group were dominated by arrhythmias (47.3 and 33.7%; p = 0.007), cardiogenic shock (13.6 and 6.1%; p = 0.006), myocardial ruptures (3.6 and 0.5% ; p = 0.004), thromboembolism (15.5 and 2.2%; p <0.0001), urinary dysfunction (7.3 and 2.5%; p = 0.01), Dressler's syndrome (4.5 and 1.1%; p = 0.009) and mental disorders (16.4 and 5.6%; p < 0.0001). Conclusions. Nonanginal forms of the disease in the study group were observed in 17% of cases. The complications of the disease for group I are characterized by cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders, thromboembolism, myocardial ruptures, cardiogenic shock, extracardiac complications of myocardial infarction. The study group has a worse prognosis, which requires early diagnosis, revascularization, the use of auxiliary mechanical devices, and careful implementation of standardized treatment algorithms.

Background: Despite guidelines recommendations for early invasive management in non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), some patients (pts) with significant coronary artery disease (CAD) found on early angiography do not undergo revascularization. The prevalence, clinical features, and long-term prognosis of this population have not been well-characterized. Methods: We evaluated 8225 NSTEMI pts from the SYNERGY trial (2002–2004) with >50% stenosis in at least 1 epicardial artery who received in-hospital percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), in-hospital coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), or no revascularization before discharge (medical management). A propensity-adjusted Cox proportional hazards model was used to compare death/MI rates at 6 months and mortality rates at 1 year among the 3 subgroups starting from the time of hospital discharge. Results: A total of 2633 of 8255 pts (32%) were medically managed, 4294 (52%) underwent PCI, and 1298 (16%) underwent CABG. Clinical features and unadjusted outcomes are shown below. Guidelines-recommended discharge medications were used in a large proportion of patients, but those undergoing PCI most commonly received evidence-based therapies. The adjusted risk of 6-month death or MI was 2.19 (95% CI: 1.79–2.67) for medical management compared with PCI, and 3.07 (95% CI: 2.18 – 4.34) for medical management compared with CABG. The adjusted risks of 1-year mortality for medical management were 1.52 (95% CI: 1.07–2.17) and 1.70 (95% CI: 0.96–3.03), respectively. Conclusion: A substantial proportion of NSTEMI pts with significant CAD are managed medically without in-hospital revascularization. These pts have higher-risk clinical characteristics and worse outcomes compared with those who undergo PCI or CABG, despite fairly good use of evidence-based medications. Therefore, innovative treatment strategies are needed to mitigate the increased risk of adverse outcomes in this population.
