Genetic and nongenetic factors in assessing the prognosis of patients after myocardial infarction with high medical adherence

Abstract

Aim. During one-year follow-up, to assess the effect of genetic and nongenetic factors on the risk of poor outcomes in patients after myocardial infarction (MI) with high medical adherence. Material and methods. The study included 250 patients admitted to the hospital due to MI in the period from September 1, 2018 to May 1, 2019 and with a potentially high medical adherence. Twelve months after MI, patients were assessed for adherence to therapy and the effect of genetic and nongenetic factors on the patient prognosis. Results. Within 12 months after MI, 70 (28,0%) patients had a composite endpoint: all-cause death, MI, cerebral stroke, and nonelective coronary revascularization. There were following factors increasing the risk of composite endpoint: non-Q-wave MI (relative risk (RR), 2,63; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1,63-4,25 (p=0,001); left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35% — RR, 2,03; 95% CI: 1,17-3,50 (p<0,0001); CYP2C19 GA/AA genotype (RR, 1,58; 95% CI: 1,06-2,37 (p<0,00001)). Conclusion. The study results allow identifying patients with a high risk of poor outcome: patients with non-Q-wave MI, left ventricular ejection fraction ≤35%, and CYP2C19 GA/AA genotype.
