description: | Although recent studies showed the prognostic value of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) parameters especially microvascular obstruction (MO) after reperfused ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), a study assessing their prognostic significance for long-term follow-up is missing so far. The objective of this study was to determine the prognostic impact of MO on long-term prognosis after reperfused first STEMI in a setting allocating CMR-assessed parameters to hard clinical events only. In 249 patients, CMR was performed after reperfused STEMI, and hereby, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), infarct size (IS), and the amount of MO were quantified. Follow-up (median 6.0 years) was obtained regarding occurrence of major adverse cardiac events (MACE). MACE occurred more often in patients showing presence of MO (MO vs no MO: n = 61 [54%] vs n = 12 [9%], p |
