One-Year Clinical Outcomes among Patients with Metabolic Syndrome and Acute Myocardial Infarction.

abstract：:Humans have pre-formed collateral vessels that enlarge with ischemia. In addition, new vessels can be formed within ischemic zones from pre-formed endocardial arcades of vessels providing rich collateral flow. Collateral flow under resting conditions (if >25% of normal) is enough to maintain myocardial viability, but ...
