- Symptoms of cardiac ischaemia.
- New ischaemic patterns in the ECG.
- Development of pathological QW waves on the ECG.
- Obvious suspicion or loss of myocardial viability or new abnormal motility regions in a pattern consistent with ischaemic pathology.
- Intracoronary thrombus detected on angiography or autopsy. 2. They must be of legal age, have read the Patient Information Sheet (HIP) and have signed the Informed Consent (IC).
- Depending on the group in which they are to be classified, patients must meet specific inclusion criteria:
- Group A: Patients who have suffered MI (myocardial infarction), are in the CRITICAL UNIT and their DNAmit values are below 0.25-105 copies.
- Group B: Patients who have suffered an MI, are in the CRITICAL UNIT and their mtDNA values are above 0.25-105 copies.
Exclusion
- Patients who meet any of the following criteria shall not be eligible for inclusion in the clinical trial:
- Chronic inflammatory diseases
- Transplantation of any organ (except cornea).
- Patients receiving or who have received in the last 3 months anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive or biological treatment targeting the immune system (TNF blockers, anakinra, rituximab, abatacept or tocilizumab), except NSAIDs and colchicine.
- Patients with overt and/or severe immunocompromise
- History of chronic kidney or liver disease (dialysis or creatinine clearance \< 30%).

- Pregnancy, childbirth or breastfeeding in the last 3 months.
- Symptomatic patients with type IV heart failure (NYHA).
- Life expectancy of less than 3 months.
