Clinical Features and Linked mEchanisms in Acute Risk-free AMI
300 participantsStarted 2025-01-01
Plain-language summary
This study aims to investigate the clinical characteristics and underlying mechanisms of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients without traditional cardiovascular risk factors, such as hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, or smoking history. By analyzing clinical data, imaging findings, and biomarkers, the research seeks to identify novel risk factors and mechanisms contributing to the pathogenesis of AMI in this unique population. The findings are expected to provide insights into improving diagnostic strategies and developing

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients diagnosed with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) based on standard clinical criteria (e.g., troponin elevation, ischemic symptoms, or imaging evidence of myocardial injury).
Absence of traditional cardiovascular risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, smoking, or obesity (BMI \< 30 kg/m²).
Aged 18 years or older. Willing and able to provide informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria:
Presence of any traditional cardiovascular risk factors as defined above. History of known congenital or structural heart disease. Severe systemic diseases that could independently contribute to AMI (e.g., severe infection, malignancy, or autoimmune disorders).
Recent history of major surgery or trauma within the last 3 months. Pregnancy or lactation. Inability to provide informed consent due to cognitive impairment or other reasons.
Participation in another interventional clinical trial that might interfere with study outcomes.
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
