Impact of the Polymorphism rs5751876 of the Purinergic Receptor ADORA2A on Periprocedural Myocardial Infarction in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention.

Abstract excerpt

AIM: Periprocedural myocardial infarction (PMI), a severe complication of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) procedures, has a negative prognostic effect, both at short and long-term follow-up. So far, adenosine's role in preventing PMI has shown contrasting results.
