Abstract

Aims: Whether aldosterone levels after myocardial infarction (MI) are associated with mid- and long-term left ventricular (LV) remodelling in the era of systematic use of renin–angiotensin system inhibitors is uncertain. We prospectively investigated the relationship between aldosterone levels and mid- and long-term LV remodelling in patients with acute MI. Methods and results: Plasma aldosterone was measured in 119 patients successfully treated by primary percutaneous coronary angioplasty for a first acute ST-elevation MI (STEMI) 2–4 days after the acute event. LV volumes were assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in the same timeframe and 6 months later. LV assessment was repeated by TTE 3–9 years after MI (n = 80). The median aldosterone level at baseline was 23.1 [16.8; 33.1] pg/ml. In the multivariable model, higher post-MI aldosterone concentration was significantly associated with more pronounced increase in LV end-diastolic volume index (TTE: ß ± standard error [SE]: 0.113 ± 0.046, p = 0.015; CMR: ß ± SE: 0.098 ± 0.040, p = 0.015) and LV end-systolic volume index (TTE: ß ± SE: 0.083 ± 0.030, p = 0.008; CMR: ß ± SE: 0.064 ± 0.032, p = 0.048) at 6-month follow-up, regardless of the method of assessment. This result was consistent also in patients with a LV ejection fraction (LVEF) >40%. The association between baseline plasma aldosterone and adverse LV remodelling did not persist at the 3–9-year follow-up evaluation. Conclusion: Aldosterone concentration in the acute phase was associated with adverse LV remodelling in the medium term, even in the subgroup of patients with LVEF >40%, suggesting a potential role of the mineralocorticoid system in post-MI adverse remodelling. Plasma aldosterone was no longer associated with LV remodelling in the long term (NCT01109225). © 2023 The Authors.
