The quantitative measurement of coronary blood flow was performed using the mean CTFC method. Plasma tHcy levels were determined using enzymatic assay from venous blood samples. Multivariable linear regression models indicated were used to estimate the effect size (β) of plasma tHcy levels on mean CTFC levels.Results: Compared with patients with the mean CTFC ≤ 23.61 frames per second (FPS) group, there were increased plasma tHcy levels in patients of the second, third and highest mean CTFC quartiles (P < 0.001). Linear regression models indicated that plasma tHcy levels were positively associated with mean CTFC levels (adjusted-β per SD increase: 1.96, 95% CI 1.20 to 2.73, P < 0.001). Compared to the tHcy ≤ 12.30 μmol/L group, the third and highest tHcy-quartile groups had higher mean CTFC levels (adjusted-β: 2.52, 95% CI 0.39 to 4.65, P = 0.023; adjusted-β: 5.07, 95% CI 2.98 to 7.16, P < 0.001, respectively; P for trend < 0.001). Moreover, this positive relationship was modified by diabetes mellitus (P-value for interaction was 0.046).Conclusion: We found a positive relationship between plasma tHcy levels and mean CTFC levels in patients with AMI. Moreover, diabetes mellitus played an interactive role in this positive association between the plasma tHcy levels and mean CTFC levels.Keywords: hyperhomocysteinemia, mean corrected TIMI frame count, acute myocardial infarction, slow coronary flow, coronary microcirculation dysfunctionHu FLu FHuang XCheng XDove Medical Pressarticlehyperhomocysteinemiamean corrected timi frame countacute myocardial infarctionslow coronary flowcoronary microcirculation dysfunction.Medicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of General Medicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 8161-8172 (2021)
