Data are presented as median (25th, 75th percentiles) or numbers (%). Mann-Whitney U test for continuous variables, Chi-square test for categorical variables. Significant p-values are highlighted in bold. OPG was measured median 14.7 hours after the PCI-procedure.

aCMR: cardiac magnetic resonance imaging

bLV: left ventricle

cMVO: microvascular obstruction

dEDV: end-diastolic volume of LV.
