The Relationship Between Aspirin Resistance and Carotid Imaging in Young Patients With ST-Segment Elevated Myocardial Infarction: A Cross-Sectional Study
Abstract:The presence of carotid atherosclerosis accompanied by coronary artery disease is associated with poor prognosis. A subset of patients who take aspirin continue to have recurrent cardiovascular events, which may be due to aspirin resistance (AR). Also, carotid plaques may cause turbulent flow which in turn may lead to platelet activation and poor antiplatelet response. In our study, we aimed to show the prevalence of AR and its relationship between high-risk carotid images in young patients with ST-segment ele… Show more
