Similar 1-Year Outcomes After First Acute Myocardial Infarction in Adults With Congenital Heart Disease

By MedXY|Aug 8, 2026

In a nationwide case-control study, adults with congenital heart disease had similar 1-year mortality and recurrent heart attack rates after a first acute myocardial infarction as matched controls. A higher 10-year mortality estimate did not persist after adjustment, supporting aggressive cardiovascular risk-factor management.

Silent Plaque Ruptures in Non-Obstructive Lesions of Non-Infarct-Related Arteries: What Serial Coronary Imaging Reveals

By MedXY|Jun 10, 2026

In patients with acute myocardial infarction, silent plaque rupture was found in 12% of non-obstructive lesions in non-infarct-related arteries. Larger plaques, positive remodeling, and thinner fibrous caps were linked to rupture, and more

Liberal Transfusion Still Appears Favored in Myocardial Infarction With Anemia, Regardless of Critical Illness Status

By MedXY|May 30, 2026

A MINT trial subanalysis found no evidence that ICU status changes the relative effect of restrictive versus liberal transfusion in acute myocardial infarction with anemia.

Beyond the Culprit: Unmasking the Prevalence and Fate of Silent Plaque Ruptures in Non-Infarct-Related Arteries

By MedXY|Mar 10, 2026

A landmark multimodality imaging study reveals that silent plaque ruptures occur in 12% of non-obstructive lesions in AMI patients. Over 50% of these ruptures heal within a year, highlighting the dynamic nature of coronary atherosclerosis a

Bailout Catheter Ablation: A Lifesaving Strategy for Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia in Early Acute Myocardial Infarction

By MedXY|Jan 3, 2026

A clinical study demonstrates that catheter ablation is a highly effective rescue therapy for refractory, scar-related ventricular tachycardia occurring in the early phase of acute myocardial infarction, challenging traditional management t

Stopping Aspirin After 1 Month Post‑PCI in Low‑Risk AMI: P2Y12 Monotherapy Is Noninferior and Bleeding‑Sparing

By MedXY|Dec 6, 2025

In low‑risk AMI patients with early complete revascularization and uneventful 1‑month DAPT, P2Y12‑inhibitor monotherapy was noninferior to continued DAPT for ischemic outcomes and substantially reduced clinically relevant bleeding.

Early Aspirin Withdrawal after PCI in Low‑Risk MI: P2Y12‑Inhibitor Monotherapy Noninferior and Significantly Less Bleeding

By MedXY|Dec 6, 2025

In low‑risk acute MI patients with early complete revascularization and 1 month of uneventful DAPT, stopping aspirin and continuing P2Y12‑inhibitor monotherapy was noninferior for ischemic outcomes and cut clinically relevant bleeding nearl

Frailty after Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Stronger Predictor of 1‑Year Death in Younger Patients Than in the Elderly

By MedXY|Dec 2, 2025

A large population study shows frailty is independently linked to worse 1‑year outcomes after AMI across ages, with the largest relative impact in patients under 55 — underscoring the need to assess frailty beyond geriatric populations.
