Acute myocardial infarction and heart failure (HF) resulting from this condition remain complex and not fully understood problems in cardiology. It is important to detect early manifestations of HF and optimize treatment to prevent pathological myocardial remodeling and the occurrence of adverse events. The increase in systemic inflammation activity (SIA) and the presence of comorbidities in patients contribute to the development of HF. The aim of the study- to investigate the impact of risk factors (RF) such as arterial hypertension (AH), diabetes mellitus (DM), history of COVID-19, and obesity on the occurrence of HF and SIA in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention. Materials and Methods. The study involved 50 patients from the cardiology and reperfusion therapy department of St. Panteleimon Hospital in Lviv (66,00 (52,43-78,35) % men and 34,00 (21,65-47,57) % women), with an average age of 62,01±10,30 years. Blood levels of NT-proBNP (a biomarker of HF) and C-reactive protein (CRP) (a biomarker of SIA) were analyzed on the day of hospitalization for STEMI (the first day from the onset of clinical symptoms, stenting of the infarct-related coronary artery). Results were evaluated using descriptive statistical analysis methods (mean and standard deviation; median and percentile, fractions and their 95 % confidence intervals, calculated by the Wald and Fisher methods), unpaired Student's t-test, and Pearson correlation analysis. Results. The average NT-proBNP levels in the studied patients were 0,50 (0,30; 2,60) ng/ml, and CRP levels were 10,50 (6,00; 20,80) IU/ml (p<0,05, compared to normal parameters). NT-proBNP levels significantly (p<0,05) exceeded the upper reference limit in the presence of AH (0,50 (0,30; 3,30) ng/ml); DM (0,61 (0,30; 4,37) ng/ml); history of COVID-19 (0,61 (0,32; 3,36) ng/ml) (as well as without this RF – 0,49 (0,15; 1,37) ng/ml); obesity (0,31 (0,19; 380) ng/ml). The average NT-proBNP levels in patients with a history of COVID-19 were significantly (p<0,05) higher compared to those in patients without it. CRP levels in blood were significantly (p<0,05) higher than normal values in patients with AH (11,05 (5,60; 25,90) IU/ml); DM (15,20 (7,06; 25,20) IU/ml) (as well as without this RF – 9,50 (5,54; 18,20) IU/ml); history of COVID-19 (12,52 (8,20; 19,65) IU/ml) (as well as without it in history – 9,99 (5,60; 20,06) IU/ml); obesity (9,63 (6,52; 35,00) IU/ml) (as well as without this RF – 10,50 (5,81; 18,40) IU/ml). Average CRP levels in patients with DM and a history of COVID-19 were significantly (p<0,05) higher compared to those without these RFs. The correlation between NT-proBNP and CRP levels was direct – strong in the presence of DM (r=0,78; p=0,012) and history of COVID-19 (r=0,70; p=0,001), medium strength in patients with AH (r=0,55; p=0,0004). Conclusions. In patients with STEMI who underwent myocardial revascularization, early manifestations of HF and a significant increase in SIA occur within the first day of the disease, promoted by such risk factors as AH, DM, history of COVID-19, and obesity. In the presence of DM and history of COVID-19, CRP should be considered an early marker of HF occurrence alongside NT-proBNP, as indicated by a strong direct correlation between these indicators in this category of individuals.
