Association Between Circulating Level of CD40 Ligand and Angiographic Morphologic Features Indicating High-Burden Thrombus Formation in Patients With Acute Myocardial Infarction Undergoing Primary Coronary Intervention
This study tested the hypothesis that in the acute phase of myocardial infarction (MI), the circulating level of soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L), an index of platelet activation, is predictive of angiographic morphologic features that indicate high-burden thrombus formation (HBTF) in the infarct-related artery (IRA).This prospective study included 162 consecutive patients: 64 with HBTF and 98 with low-burden thrombus formation (LBTF). All patients had a Killip's classification
