“…In contrast to our study, Bejani et al demonstrated that the incidence of inferior MI was greater in these regions than in other regions [20]. Another study also supported our ndings that the incidence of STEMI was highest in the LAD (56%), followed by the RCA (42%) and LCX (24%) [21]. Although information regarding the distribution of lesions is crucial, why plaques in the LCX are less prone to rupture or why involvement in the proximal segments is more susceptible to rupture remains controversial.…”

Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the most common causes of mortality worldwide. Several studies have demonstrated that some areas of the coronary arteries are more prone to thrombosis. This study investigated the associations between angiographic findings and risk factors for coronary artery disease. Methods: This cross-sectional study investigated the total number of patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) referred to the angiography department at Hazrat-E-Rasool Hospital from 21st March 2017 to 20th March 2018. All patients underwent standard coronary angiography; if necessary, a stent was deployed in the infarct-related artery (IRA). The referrals were made through emergency medical services (EMS) or the hospital's emergency department. Results: Fifty-two patients were enrolled as STEMI patients and underwent coronary angiography at Hazrat-E-Rasool Hospital in 1396. The mean age of the patients was 59.7±12.7 years, and 78.9% were males. The most frequently involved vessels were the left anterior descending (LAD), right coronary artery (RCA), and left circumflex(LCX) Most lesions in the LAD were located in the mid-segment, while in the RCA and LCX, the involvement predominantly occurred in the proximal segment. Conclusions: The results of our study demonstrated that the LAD artery is the most commonly involved vessel. Additionally, male sex, family history, and smoking are considered risk factors at a younger age, while diabetes, hypertension, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) play significant roles in older generations.

“…AMI is classified as STEMI or non-STEMI based on the presence or absence of ST-segment elevation on the electrocardiogram. 24 The ratio of STEMI among patients with AMI was 75.8% 25 and 79.5%.26 The ratio among patients with coronary syndromes was 52.0% 17 and 25.7%. 18 …”

“…Chest pain was the most common manifestation of patients with AMI. 10 , 12 – 17 Small studies covered different periods across the country, from symptom onset to medical contact or arrival at the hospital. Only a minority of patients with AMI (35.7%) arrived at the hospital during the first hour of symptom onset, 7.9% 24 hours after symptom onset in Bandar Abbas, 12 and 69.0% 2 hours after symptom onset in Kashan.…”

Background: Cardiovascular diseases, specifically acute myocardial infarction (AMI), are the leading cause of death worldwide. In this review, we explain the characteristics of AMI in Iran. Methods: We searched PubMed, Google, and Google Scholar for articles containing myocardial infarction, STEMI, and MI+ Iran in English and Persian words. Results: The age-standardized incidence rate of MI was 73.3 per 100 000. The mean±SD age of patients was 61.20±13.40 years. In-hospital mortality of patients with AMI in the IMIR was 12.1%. Concerning AMI complications reported in the IMIR, 5.8% of patients experienced ventricular tachycardia, and 2.5% experienced ventricular fibrillation. The 1-year mortality rate in the IPACE2 study was 4.3%. Conclusion: Only a few national studies are available in Iran regarding patients with AMI. A federal surveillance program continuously monitoring and tracking coronary events is essential to improve the general population’s health.
