Coronary plaque characteristics on coronary angioscopy for prediction of PMI.

Author Number of patients Events rate (%) Imaging result Odds ratio
(95% CI)
Okamatsu et al. [26] 57 TnT ≥ 0.1 ng/mL (52%) Coronary thrombus 22.1(2.59 to 188.42)
Mizote et al. [27] 110 No/slow flow (19.4%) Ruptured plaque n/a
Murakami et al. [28] 42 TnT ≥ 0.03 ng/mL (52%)
Transient no flow (23%)
Intense yellow plaque 0.26 (2.25–1243.9)

PMI = periprocedural myocardial infarction, CI = confidence interval, TnT = troponin T.
