The final 10 risk factors, namely, admission or perihospital cardiac arrest, a history of stroke, Killip classification II–IV, fasting blood glucose ≥10 mmol/L, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVDd) ≥60 mm, age ≥70, serum creatinine ≤35 μmol, NT-proBNP ≥300 pg/ml, absence of immediate statin administration or PCI within 24 h after symptom onset, were incorporated into the risk score model for the prediction of 5-year mortality in AMI patients (Table 2). This evidence concerns the gene NPPB and cardiac arrest.
