Relation of admission white blood cell count to long-term outcomes after primary coronary angioplasty for acute myocardial infarction (The Stent PAMI Trial)

This study determines that the elevation of the admission WBC is associated with a greater postprocedural thrombus burden, larger infarct size, and a higher incidence of reinfarction after percutaneous intervention for AMI.
