Patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (NOCAD) have high risk associated with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and fragmented QRS (fQRS) has predictive value of AMI after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). A cohort of 254 participants were recruited including 136 NOCAD and 118 AMI patients from Xi'an No.1 Hospital. Comprehensive metabolomics was performed by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS with multivariate statistical analyses. The hazard ratios were performed to discriminate the prognostic in AMI after PCI between differential metabolites and fQRS. OPLS-DA separated metabolites from NOCAD and AMI in serum. A total of 23 differential metabolites were identified between NOCAD and AMI. In addition, 4 differential metabolites namely acetylglycine, threoninyl-glycine, glutarylglycine and nonanoylcarnitine were identified between fQRS and non-fQRS in AMI. The hazard ratios demonstrate the metabolites were associated with the risk of cardiac death, recurrent angina, re-admissions and major adverse cardiovascular events, which may clarify the mechanism of fQRS as a predictor in the prognostic of AMI after PCI. This study identified novel differential metabolites to distinguish the difference from NOCAD to AMI and clarify the mechanism of fQRS in prognostic of AMI after PCI, which may provide novel insights into potential risks and prognostic of AMI.
