Summary: The study suggests a moderate protective effect of influenza vaccination on AMI in the general population, primarily in primary prevention. The reduced risk of AMI was observed shortly after vaccination and persisted over time, with no significant association found with pneumococcal vaccine.

Summary: This study investigated the prognostic significance of first-degree atrioventricular block (AVB) in Asian populations. The results showed that first-degree AVB is an independent risk factor for adverse events and can be used to predict the risk of cardiovascular disease and mortality.

Summary: Patients with DLBCL have an increased risk of AMI, particularly in the first 2 years following diagnosis. Older age, male sex, and comorbidities are strong risk factors for AMI. Younger patients only have a short-term high risk of AMI when severe comorbidities are present. Overall, there was no difference in AMI characteristics, pharmacological treatment, or 30-day survival between DLBCL patients and comparators.

Summary: The study found that uveitis may be a potential predictor of acute myocardial infarction in patients with Behcet's disease. Uveitis patients were younger and predominantly male compared to non-uveitis patients.

Summary: This study aimed to determine the age- and sex-specific changes in the incidence of myocardial infarction in Denmark from 2005 to 2021. The results showed a declining trend in the incidence of myocardial infarction across age groups and sexes, with the steepest declines observed among the oldest age groups (>70 years).

Summary: This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the epidemiological indicators of myocardial infarction in Korea, comparing them with other high-income countries. The results indicate that although there is an increasing trend, the hospitalization incidence, prevalence, and mortality rate of myocardial infarction are lower in Korea than in other countries. The study emphasizes the need for comprehensive national-level support and surveillance systems to collect accurate epidemiological indicators.

Summary: This study found that patients with AS who have uveitis are at a significantly higher risk of developing acute myocardial infarction (AMI) compared to those without uveitis. Regardless of gender or age group, patients with uveitis in the AS population have an increased risk for AMI.

Summary: This study found that non-achievement of lipid and statin adherence targets in myocardial infarction survivors is associated with increased risks of all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality, but not with recurrent myocardial infarctions. Further research is needed to optimize their use in clinical practice to improve outcomes.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the occurrence, risk factors, and association with cardiovascular outcomes of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after non-emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The results showed that age, chronic kidney disease, and prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery were associated with an increased risk of ICH after PCI. Furthermore, ICH after PCI was associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality and acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.

Summary: The study found a significant association between admission blood glucose levels and 28-day mortality in patients aged 65-74 with AMI, but not in those aged 75-84. However, higher admission blood glucose was linked to major cardiac complications in both age groups.

Summary: The study analyzed the impact of respiratory infectious diseases on STEMI, showing that these diseases did not lead to treatment delays or an increase in mortality rates.

Summary: The ISCHEMIA trial showed that an initial invasive strategy did not reduce cardiovascular events or all-cause mortality in patients with stable ischemic heart disease. Procedural MI rates were higher with the invasive strategy compared to conservative strategy, with the use of the secondary MI definition.

Summary: This population-based registry aimed to investigate the incidence and in-hospital mortality of AMI by conforming to the UDMI. The study found that in-hospital mortality is still high among patients with STEMI in Japan.

Summary: Employment status prior to acute myocardial infarction is associated with long-term risk of mortality and recurrent MI. Patients who were not part of the workforce had a higher risk of death and new heart attacks following discharge compared to those who were part of the workforce.

Summary: The study found that compared with patients without AR, those with moderate/severe AR had a significantly higher risk of MI and MI mortality, but there was no significant association between AR and the risk of stroke or stroke mortality.
