Age-Related Patterns of Myocardial Recovery After Primary PCI for Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Prospective 12-Month Study
12-month conventional systolic recovery assessed by LVEF and absolute GLS was comparable between age groups after primary PCI, suggesting that age-stratified recovery after AMI is better characterized by ischemic timing, baseline biomarker profile, and deformation trajectory than by LVEF alone.
