(A) Representative 1H-NMR spectra obtained from plasma extracts in a STEMI patient included in the COMBAT-MI clinical trial. Abbreviations: 3-HB: 3-hydroxybutyrate; Cr: Creatine; Crn: Creatinine; Glc: Glucose; Lac: Lactate; Suc: Succinate; Thr: Threonine. (B) Concentrations of selected metabolites (mmol/L) analyzed by 1H NMR spectroscopy in plasma extracts obtained from peripheral blood samples in STEMI patients with initial TIMI flow 1 as compared with data from those with initial TIMI flow 2. * (p < 0.05) indicates significant differences vs. TIMI 1 group. Inset shows variability in succinate concentrations in control TIMI 1 patients (data in µmol/L).
