Summary: | BACKGROUNDGlycemic variability (GV) induces coronary microcirculatory disturbance and myocardial damage in diabetic patients with acute myocardial infarction. However, in nondiabetic acute myocardial infarction patients, the relationship between GV and myocardial damage remains unclear.
PATIENTS AND METHODSWe investigated GV with a continuous glucose monitoring system in nondiabetic ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients treated with emergent percutaneous coronary intervention. GV was expressed as the mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE). Myocardial damage was estimated by myocardial blush grade and ST-segment resolution (STRes). STRes was defined as complete (>70%), partial (30–70%), or none ( |
