[Retracted] Improved Cardiac Function and Attenuated Inflammatory Response by Additional Administration of Tirofiban during PCI for ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction Patients

Table 5

The incidence rates of MACEs between the PCI + tirofiban and PCI groups 12 months following PCI.

	PCI + tirofiban group	PCI group
LVEF < 50%	11 (17.74%)	19 (30.65%)	0.040
MACEs	9 (14.52%)	19 (30.65%)	0.032
Recurrent angina pectoris	7	13
Recurrent MI	1	3
Malignant arrhythmia	1	1
Heart failure	0	1
Cardiac death	0	1

A total of 124 patients with STEMI were randomly assigned to PCI + tirofiban and PCI groups, 62 cases per groups. LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction; MACE, major adverse cardiovascular event.
