Large final infarct size is defined as >75th percentile (>22.8% of LV volume) at CMR 4 months after the STEMI. 1>median (366 ng/ml). CI: confidence interval. CRP: C-reactive protein. dsDNA: double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid. ln: natural logarithm. MI: myocardial infarction. PCI: percutaneous coronary intervention. SD: standard deviation.
