Novel insights into myocardial fibrosis in patients with new onset ST-elevation myocardial infarction following percutaneous coronary intervention through enhanced cardiac magnetic... by Temilola J. Oketunbi, Jun Wang, Bin Ding, Xilong Song, Yao Li, Hongwei Song, Xiaojun Shi, Sigang Hu, Dasheng Gao, Hongju Wang, Miaonan Li

“…LGE exhibited a moderate negative correlation with the global circumferential segment (r=-0.547, p < 0.001) and a weak negative correlation with both the global radial segment and the global longitudinal segment (r=-0.434, p < 0.001; r=-0.437, p < 0.001). In the multivariable linear regression analysis model, the Gensini score (β = 0.258; p < 0.01), LVEF% (β=-0.269; p < 0.05), MVO (β = 0.343; p < 0.001) and GRS (β = 0.227; p < 0.05) emerged as robust predictors of myocardial fibrosis. …”
