Data are presented as mean ± standard deviation, number (percentage) or as median (25th- 75th percentile). ACE = angiotensin converting enzyme; ARB = angiotensin receptor blocker; BMI = body mass index; bpm = beats per minute; CAD = coronary artery disease; CPK = creatine phosphokinase; cTnT = cardiac troponin T; (e)GFR = glomerular filtration rate estimated with the Cockcroft-Gault formula; LAD = left anterior descending coronary artery; TIMI = thrombolysis in myocardial infarction. Hypertension was defined as office blood pressure ≥140/90 mmHg or previous pharmacological treatment. Hypercholesterolemia was defined as total cholesterol 190 mg/dl or previous pharmacological treatment. Diabetes mellitus was defined as fasting
