Core Tip
Core tip: There was an obesity paradox, with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m² ST-elevation myocardial infarction patients presenting better survival. Normal weight patients presented more in-hospital bleeding than others. In-hospital bleeding was related to 1-year cardiovascular mortality. Presenting a normal BMI increased the effect of bleeding on mortality.
