| Popis: | We hypothesized that absolute and relative neutrophilia would be associated with adverse angiographic outcomes in the 394 patient Limitation of Myocardial Infarction Following Thrombolysis in Acute Myocardial Infarction (LIMIT) Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) trial of fibrinolysis in ST-elevation myocardial infarction. The mean neutrophil count was 7.9 x 10(9)/L, with a mean neutrophil percentage of 72%. Patients with time from symptom onset to fibrinolytic treatment more than the median (2.7 hours) had a higher neutrophil count and percentage of neutrophils than patients with shorter time to treatment. Patients with a closed infarct-related artery at 90 minutes (Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction [TIMI] grade 0/1 flow) had higher neutrophil counts (8.8 +/- 3.8 vs 7.6 +/- 3.0, p = 0.02) but no difference in the percentage of neutrophils than patients with an open artery. Higher neutrophil counts were also mildly correlated with longer corrected TIMI frame counts (CTFC) in the infarct-related artery (r = 0.14, p = 0.02). Patients with impaired myocardial perfusion by TIMI myocardial perfusion grade (TMPG) had a greater percentage of neutrophils (73.2 +/- 10.7% for TMPG 0/1 vs 69.9 +/- 12.6% for TMPG 2/3, p = 0.047) but no detectable difference in neutrophil counts (8.2 +/- 3.3 vs 7.7 +/- 2.9, p = 0.24). There were no significant associations between other indexes in the cell differential and angiographic or clinical outcomes. Higher neutrophil counts remained independently associated with both closed arteries and CTFC in multivariable models controlling for age, left anterior descending artery infarct location, time to treatment, and pulse and blood pressure on admission. A greater percentage of neutrophils remained independently associated with impaired microvascular perfusion in a similar multivariable model. In patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction, absolute and relative neutrophilia were associated with impaired epicardial and microvascular perfusion. |
