TLDR
Lithocytic myocarditis was associated with remodeling and inflammation of atherosclerotic plaques indicative of plaque destabilization pointing to coronary spasm, suggesting that preexistent LM, or its causes, may facilitate the development of MI.About:

Protective effect of scutellarin on myocardial infarction induced by isoprenaline in rats.
TL;DR: Scutellarin could reduce the degree of MI induced by ISO by improving the antioxidant, anti-apoptotic, and anti-inflammatory capacities of the body.

Infectious myocarditis: the role of the cardiac vasculature
Linde Woudstra,Lynda J.M. Juffermans,Albert C. van Rossum,Hans W.M. Niessen,Paul A.J. Krijnen +4 more
TL;DR: The role of the cardiac (micro)vasculature in the pathogenesis of infectious myocarditis is discussed and thrombus formation as well as aberrant regulation of vascular tone including coronary vasospasm is discussed.

Cardioprotective Effect of Rhapontigenin in Isoproterenol-Induced Myocardial Infarction in a Rat Model.
TL;DR: Rhapontigenin ameliorates MI caused by ISO in rats and provides cardioprotective effect, via anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antiapoptotic effect.

Branka Vulesevic,Branka Vulesevic,Martin G. Sirois,Martin G. Sirois,Bruce G. Allen,Simon de Denus,Simon de Denus,Michel White,Michel White +8 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current literature on the role of subclinical inflammation, with a focus on the neutrophil in the pathophysiology of the HF syndrome, and some emerging therapeutic strategies are discussed.

Tranexamic acid decreases rodent hemorrhagic shock-induced inflammation with mixed end-organ effects.
Patrick F. Walker,Patrick F. Walker,Anthony D. Foster,Anthony D. Foster,Philip A. Rothberg,Philip A. Rothberg,Thomas A. Davis,Thomas A. Davis,Matthew J. Bradley,Matthew J. Bradley +9 more
TL;DR: While there was an improvement in pulmonary edema and a suppressive effect on several key inflammatory mediators, there was also increased myocardial degeneration and necrosis, which is possibly related to the pro-thrombotic effect of tranexamic acid.

Lessons From Sudden Coronary Death A Comprehensive Morphological Classification Scheme for Atherosclerotic Lesions
TL;DR: This review will reconsider the current paradigm for understanding the critical, final steps in the progression of atherosclerotic lesions, and devise a simpler classification scheme that is consistent with the AHA categories but is easier to use, able to deal with a wide array of morphological variations, and not overly burdened by mechanistic implications.

Systematic Review of Patients Presenting With Suspected Myocardial Infarction and Nonobstructive Coronary Arteries
TL;DR: MINOCA should be considered as a working diagnosis with multiple potential causes that require evaluation so that directed therapies may improve its guarded prognosis.
