Abstract

Background and Aim: No data are so far available on the impact of age and obesity in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods and Results: We assessed the impact of age on the prognostic value of body mass index (BMI) in 1268 consecutive STEMI patients admitted to our Intensive Cardiac Care Unit (ICCU). BMI categories were as follows: 37 " lean" patients (37/1268, 2.9%), 403 " normal" patients (403/1268, 31.8%), 656 " overweight" patients (656/1268, 51.7%), 172 " obese" patients (172/1268, 13.6%). Among patients aged
