The relationships between myocardial perfusion, fatty acid metabolism, and cardiac function were investigated using dual single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with thallium and iodine-123-beta-methyl-p-iodophenyl-pentadecanoic acid (123I-BMIPP) during the acute (10 +/- 1 days) and recovery (60 +/- 14 days) phases in 29 patients with acute myocardial infarction. There were 18 patients who underwent successful primary coronary angioplasty (PTCA group) and 11 patients who received conservative therapy (non PTCA group). Thallium and BMIPP uptakes were scored visually by a 4-point system and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was calculated by radionuclide ventriculography. Although significant positive correlations between thallium and 123I-BMIPP scores were observed during both phases, BMIPP scores were significantly lower than thallium scores in both acute and recovery phases in the PTCA group. No significant difference in thallium and 123I-BMIPP scores was observed at the recovery phase in the non PTCA group. LVEF significantly correlated with thallium and 123I-BMIPP scores in both phases in the PTCA group. Furthermore, the difference between thallium and 123I-BMIPP scores during the acute phase significantly correlated with the improvement of LVEF during the follow-up period in the PTCA group (y = 0.92x-0.77, r = 0.65, p < 0.005). These findings suggest that mismatch of perfusion and metabolism in infarcted myocardium assessed by thallium and 123I-BMIPP SPECT is increased by reperfusion therapy and persists at least until the recovery phase of myocardial infarction. The recovery of left ventricular function depends on the extent of the mismatched uptake, indicating a predictor for functional recovery following acute myocardial infarction.

D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.
