Panelists discuss how the pathophysiology of pulmonary arterial hypertension involves complex mechanisms across multiple genetic and treatment pathways, with over 20 identified genes and four ...

Artificial intelligence can identify a non–-ST-elevated myocardial infarction more accurately than a clinician in an emergency department, which might upend standard practice.

Non-ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction is a type of heart attack. Learn about the causes, symptoms, and treatment options for this condition today.

Objectives Temporal trends in the incidence of ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have been declining in many countries, while the incidence of non-ST elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) ...

NSTEMI is characterized by partial artery blockage resulting in reduced oxygenated blood to the body that leads to infarction. In the US, there are approximately 546,000 cases of NSTEMI each year.

Dr. Patrick Malecha (Medicine): A 69-year-old man with a history of myocardial infarction, ischemic cardiomyopathy, and an implantable cardioverter–defibrillator (ICD) was evaluated because of ...

Learn about the difference between myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction. This article looks at causes, symptoms, treatments, and more.

Invasive Strategy for NSTEMI in the Elderly: Fears Don't Pan Out in SENIOR-RITA — Trial paints a fuller picture of risk-benefit in complex patient population ...

An invasive strategy vs. optimal medical therapy alone after a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) in older adults did not affect the combined risk of cardiovascular death or MI ...

In NSTEMI patients with frailty, an initial invasive strategy caused early harm followed by late benefit, resulting in an overall neutral effect on survival at 3 years.
