To determine the relationship of the phenotypes of neutrophils and monocytes with early fibrotic repair after acute myocardial infarction.
This study will enroll 50 patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Peripheral blood will be collected from these patients for immune cell subset analysis, serum cytokine evaluation, and neutrophil sorting for transcriptome sequencing. At 1 week after admission, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) will be performed to evaluate the myocardial salvage index, area of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE), microvascular obstruction (MVO), extracellular volume (ECV), and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

RECRUITINGMajor cardiac adverse outcome
The composite endpoint included cardiac death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and rehospitalization for angina.
Time frame: At 12 months after enrollment
Cardiac remodeling measured by CMR
CMR will be performed to evaluate the cardiac fibrosis defined as area of late gadolinium enhancement (LGE).
Time frame: At 1 week after admission
