Inflammation clues after heart attack could predict future risks
NCT ID NCT06065514
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 100 people who had a heart attack to see if certain inflammation markers in the blood could predict who might die or develop heart failure within 6 months. Researchers measured these markers at several time points after the attack. The goal was to better understand how inflammation affects heart healing, not to test a new treatment.
