Key result
In-hospital cardiogenic shock during ULMCA AMI is linked to ~307% greater long-term mortality.
Observational (n=55)
No
Hazard Ratio: 4.07 (95% CI 1.4–11.83)
p-value: p=0.01
AMI caused by ULMCA lesions carries a high mortality rate of 52.7%, with cardiogenic shock being the strongest predictor of long-term mortality.

Cardiogenic shock signals high long-term mortality risk in AMI-ULMCA; leaves open whether targeted interventions improve outcomes in this cohort.
Xu et al. (2016) conducted an observational in Acute myocardial infarction due to unprotected left main coronary artery disease (n=55). Cardiogenic shock vs. No cardiogenic shock was evaluated on All-cause mortality (HR 4.07, 95% CI 1.40-11.83, p=0.01). Cardiogenic shock during hospitalisation was the only independent predictor of long-term overall mortality in patients with acute myocardial infarction due to unprotected left main coronary artery disease (HR 4.07).
