Abstract

We have carefully read the article titled ‘Prognostic Nutritional Index as a Predictor of No-Reflow Occurrence in Patients With ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Who Underwent Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention' and find it to be of significant interest. The no-reflow phenomenon (NRP) stands as a formidable complication of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), carrying a high mortality risk. Managing NRP entails pharmacological and mechanical interventions, making its prediction a crucial aspect in the management of STEMI cases. We extend our gratitude to you and the authors for conducting this valuable and thought-provoking study. We anticipate that our insights will serve as a guide for future comprehensive studies in this dynamic area.
