Popis: | Contains fulltext : 81178.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) BACKGROUND: In smokers treated with fibrinolysis for ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) a paradoxical beneficial short-term outcome has been reported. This was attributed to favorable clinical and angiographic baseline variables and a better response to fibrinolysis. During follow-up infarct artery reocclusion is an important prognosticator. We studied the effects of smoking on reocclusion and long-term cardiac outcome after successful fibrinolysis. METHODS: In the Antithrombotics in the Prevention of Reocclusion In COronary Thrombolysis trials (APRICOT-1 and -2) 499 STEMI patients with an open infarct artery |
