TL;DR: The data show that obesity is a risk factor of a manifestation of STEMI at a younger age compared to normal weight patients, and after STEMI has occurred, obesity is associated with a trend of a lower mortality during the following clinical course.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Guidelines compliant medical therapy improves clinical outcome in patients with stable angina and objective evidence of coronary disease and was associated with a reduction in death and MI during follow-up in Patients with angINA and confirmed coronary disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immediate multivessel percutaneous coronary intervention versus culprit lesion intervention in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock: results of the ALKK-PCI registry.
Uwe Zeymer,Mathias Hochadel,Holger Thiele,Dietrich Andresen,Helmut Schühlen,Johannes Brachmann,Albrecht Elsässer,Anselm K. Gitt,Ralf Zahn +8 more
TL;DR: A randomised trial is needed to determine the definitive role of multivessel PCI in cardiogenic shock, as in current clinical practice in Germany multivessels PCI is used only in one quarter of patients with cardiogenesis shock treated with primary PCI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timm Bauer,Anselm K. Gitt,Claus Jünger,Ralf Zahn,Oliver Koeth,Frank Towae,Arne Kristian Schwarz,Kurt Bestehorn,Jochen Senges,Uwe Zeymer,Acute Coronary Syndromes Registry (Acos) investigators +10 more
TL;DR: Comorbidities and no interventional treatment were strong negative predictors for guideline-adherent discharge medication, and guideline- adherent secondary prevention drug therapy is linked with an improved 1-year survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nicolas Werner,Timm Bauer,Matthias Hochadel,Ralf Zahn,Franz Weidinger,Jean Marco,Christian W. Hamm,Anselm K. Gitt,Uwe Zeymer +8 more
TL;DR: Stroke as complication of PCI occurs rarely (0.4%) in clinical practice in Europe today, however, peri-interventional stroke is still associated with an exceedingly high in-hospital mortality rate and treatment of patients with stroke after PCI needs further research.
