“…Historically, randomized controlled trials of ACEI/ARB have demonstrated a reduction in mortality and hospitalization for HF among patients with AMI and both reduced LVEF 4 as well as preserved LVEF 7,25 . In contrast, several contemporary observational studies have found no reduction in mortality or hospitalization for HF associated with ACEI/ARB among patients with AMI and preserved LVEF 26,27 . Several unique features of our study population should be noted when compared with these aforementioned observational studies: there was a high prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors (31.4% diabetes, 57.5% hypertension, and 52.4% hyperlipidemia), all study participants underwent inhospital revascularization, and we were able to compare clinical outcomes between patients prescribed combination treatment with BB + ACEI/ARB, BB only, ACEI/ARB only versus no BB + no ACEI/ARB.…”

“…Following AMI, disordered ventricular muscle contraction, activation of the RAAS and ventricular remodeling may lead to cardiac insufficiency, or even pump failure ( 18 ). At present, the drugs that are recommended by guidelines have a low effect on inhibiting excessive activation of the nonendocrine system in the mechanism of heart failure following AMI and are unable to bring about the rapid rectification of hemodynamic disorders ( 19 , 20 ). Notably, the overall therapeutic effects of treatments often do not meet clinical expectations.…”

“…Moreover, these results may be similar to those of the CAPRICORN (Carvedilol Post-Infarct Survival Control in LV Dysfunction) randomized trial [36], which showed that BB + RASI therapy reduced mortality in patients with AMI and reduced LVEF (≤40%) with or without HF. Additionally, María et al [37] demonstrated that, among hospitalized survivors of AMI, the use of RASI was associated with a lower risk of follow-up HF in patients with a LVEF ≤40% but not in those with a LVEF >40%. As shown in Table S3, decreased LVEF (<40%) was a significant independent predictor for both MACEs (aHR: 1.634; 95% CI: 1.302-2.018; p < 0.001) and HHF (aHR: 6.923; 95% CI: 4.897-9.832; p < 0.001) in our study.…”
