Key result
The SYNTAX II score was identified as an independent predictor of microvascular obstruction in patients with acute STEMI undergoing primary PCI (OR 11.636).
Why the study?
Quality evidence regarding the association between coronary artery angiography scores and microvascular injury in acute STEMI after PCI is still needed.
Do coronary artery angiography scores predict microvascular obstruction detected by CMR in patients with acute STEMI undergoing primary PCI?
Population
122 patients with acute STEMI who underwent primary PCI and CMR
Comparison
MVO group vs non-MVO group based on CMR results
Design
Single-center retrospective observational study

The SYNTAX II score and peak troponin I are independent predictors of microvascular obstruction in patients with acute STEMI undergoing primary PCI.
Li et al. (2022) conducted an observational in Acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) (n=122). SYNTAX II score vs. Lower scores was evaluated on Microvascular obstruction (MVO) detected by cardiac magnetic resonance (OR 11.636, 95% CI 1.816-74.556, p=0.010). The SYNTAX II score was identified as an independent predictor of microvascular obstruction in patients with acute STEMI undergoing primary PCI (OR 11.636).
