Why the study?

MINOCA is a condition of growing interest, but data were needed to evaluate long-term prognosis and identify risk factors associated with long-term mortality.

Population

1544 patients aged ≥18 years hospitalized with AMI and non-obstructive coronary lesions (<50% stenosis)

Design

Retrospective observational cohort study

Follow-up

Mean follow-up time of 8.5 years

Discussion

Implication

MINOCA patients show notable long-term mortality with identifiable risk factors; leaves open optimal management strategies pending prospective trials.

Structured PICO

Population

1,544 patients aged ≥18 years hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and non-obstructive lesions (<50% stenosis in all coronary arteries), mean age 61, 46% female.

Outcome

Long-term mortalityhard clinical

MINOCA is associated with a favorable short-term prognosis but significant long-term mortality, particularly in older patients and those with concomitant congestive heart failure.
