Brief summary

Following myocardial infarction, female individuals demonstrate a poorer prognosis, characterized by elevated rates of mortality and heart failure. A primary hypothesis suggests unfavorable cardiac remodeling in women. This remodeling, defined as alterations in cardiac size and shape post-infarction, necessitates repeated non-invasive imaging for study.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Asses left ventricular remodeling disparities between gendersbaseline; 3 months and 1 year after myocardial infarction onsetThe primary outcome measure will be the occurrence of left ventricular remodeling (defined as a change in ventricular volume of more than 10% during follow-up) measured with cardiac imaging (echocardiography and MRI)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Evaluate the evolution of remodeling at Month 33 monthsChanges in ventricular volumes between acute phase and 3 months measured with cardiac imaging (echocardiography and MRI)
Assess remodeling changes between inclusion and Month 121 yearChanges in ventricular volumes between acute phase and 1 year measured with cardiac imaging (echocardiography and MRI)
Assess the prevalence of comorbidities and their impact on the effect on the outcome: post-infarction cardiac remodeling with gender (cardiovascular risk factors, renal function, hepatic functionperipheral artery disease, way of life)3 months and 1 yearrenal function: uremia and creatinine levels, combined with an assessment of the protein-to-creatinine ratio in urine samples, and a cyto-bacteriological examination of urine to detect hematuria; hepatic function: The Fibroscan® is a device that enables a non-invasive and efficient assessment of liver fibrosis and steatosis within minutes at the patient's bedside, providing an immediate result displayed on the device screen; peripheral artery disease: Doppler echocardiography of the supra-aortic trunks; way of life : dietetary, stress and physical activity scores common CV risk factors: prior history of hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, tobacco use, diabetes
