Patients Admitted With the Diagnosis of ST-elevation Acute Coronary Syndrome Clinical Trial
— ARTERIAThe prognostic value of inflammatory markers in acute coronary syndrome has been extensively demonstrated, however it is still unknown whether there is an association between circulating and local (thrombus) inflammatory molecules, and the subset of molecules that provide better prognostic information in patients with ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome.

Primary | The primary objective of the study is to find out whether there is an association between certain inflammatory markers in blood and intracoronary thrombus and whether these markers are associated with the composite of all-cause mortality | one year | No |
