Among young patients with acute coronary syndrome, STEMI presentation was associated with a higher prevalence of single-vessel disease compared to NSTEMI/UA (56.6% vs. 36.6%; P<0.001).

In young patients with acute coronary syndrome, STEMI is more frequently associated with single-vessel and LAD disease, whereas NSTEMI/UA is more often associated with triple-vessel and LCx disease.
Deora et al. (2016) conducted an observational in Acute coronary syndrome (n=820). ST-elevated myocardial infarction (STEMI) vs. Non-ST-elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) or unstable angina (UA) was evaluated on Single-vessel disease (p=<0.001). Among young patients with acute coronary syndrome, STEMI presentation was associated with a higher prevalence of single-vessel disease compared to NSTEMI/UA (56.6% vs. 36.6%; P<0.001).
