Systemic immune-inflammation index: Valid predictor of coronary no-reflow phenomenon for older patients with STEMI undergoing PCI

Announcing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. Coronary no-reflow phenomenon (NRP), a common adverse complication in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is associated with poor patient prognosis.

Aircraft noise exposure before MI amplifies subsequent cardiovascular inflammation

Traffic noise may play an essential role in the development and deterioration of ischemic heart disease. Researchers from the Cardiology Department at the University Medical Center Mainz now discovered that noise exposure(average sound pressure level 72 dB; peak level 85 dB) up to 4d resulted in pro-inflammatory aortic gene expression in mice.
