Popis: BACKGROUND Despite the revolution of coronary stents, there remain concerns about the risk of stent thrombosis, especially in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). The present study compared early vascular healing as a contributing factor to reducing stent thrombosis between Xience everolimus-eluting stents (X-EES) and Synergy everolimus-eluting stents (S-EES) in patients with STEMI. Methods and Results: The present study included 47 patients with STEMI requiring primary percutaneous coronary intervention with X-EES (n=25) or S-EES (n=22). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) assessments of the stented lesions were performed 2 weeks and 4 months after stent implantation. Neointimal strut coverage, malapposition and the frequency of thrombus formation were evaluated. In the 2-week OCT analysis, the proportion of covered struts in S-EES (42.4±15.4%) was significantly higher than in X-EES (26.3±10.1%, P
