Background The aim of the present study was to clarify the effect of preinfarction angina pectoris (PIA) on myocardial blush grade (MBG), a simple marker of myocardial tissue-level reperfusion, in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods and Results One hundred forty-two patients with first anterior wall AMI who were admitted within 6h after onset of symptoms were examined. PIA was defined as typical chest pain within 48h before onset of symptoms. MBG was evaluated by coronary angiography after reperfusion. Patients with MBG 2 or 3 (n=103) had a higher frequency of PIA and a lower frequency of diabetes mellitus than those with MBG 0 or 1 (n=39) (57% vs 28%, p=0.004, and 23% vs 44%, p=0.03, respectively). The former had a lower peak creatine kinase level and a greater left ventricular ejection fraction at predischarge than the latter (3,652±2,440 vs 5,507±3,058IU/L, p=0.0002, and 57±12% vs 45±11%, p<0.0001, respectively). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PIA (p=0.004) and diabetes mellitus (p=0.03) were independently associated with MBG 2 or 3 after reperfusion. Conclusions PIA has beneficial effects on myocardial tissue-level reperfusion evaluated by MBG in first anterior wall AMI.
