Predictive Value of MBF_cor for Final IS and 6M Functional Recovery

(A) The lines show the predictions for acute myocardial blood flow corrected (MBF_cor) equal to 0.3, 0.8, and 1.3 ml/min/g. (B) The observed proportions of segments with no 6-month (6M) late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) are shown by quartile of acute myocardial blood flow corrected, with 95% confidence intervals. The lines show the prediction for no 6-month late gadolinium enhancement as a function of acute myocardial blood flow corrected and acute late gadolinium enhancement of 0%, 10%, and 20%. (C) The continuous lines show prediction for acute myocardial blood flow corrected equal to 0.35, 0.70, and 1.40 ml/min/g. (D) The observed proportions of segments with wall thickening (WT) <45% are shown by quartile of acute myocardial blood flow corrected, with 95% confidence intervals. The lines show the predictions for wall thickening <45% as a function of acute myocardial blood flow corrected, and 0% and 50% late gadolinium enhancement, and with and without microvascular obstruction in the case of 50% acute late gadolinium enhancement. IS = infarct size.
