Alpha Lipoic Acid Effect on No-Reflow Phenomenon

Summary

Prospective, randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of Alpha Lipoic Acid administration on oxidative stress, inflammatory markers, clinical outcome and occurrence of No-Reflow in post myocardial infarction (MI) patients by assessment of aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2) as a marker of oxidative stress and paraoxonase-1 (PON-1) as a marker of oxidative stress and inflammation.
