Subgroup analyses based on demographics, comorbidities, and coronary artery disease (CAD) history were conducted to identify vulnerable populations. Additionally, a retrospective case\u2013control analysis with multivariable logistic regression involved all AMI admission cases, was conducted to explore whether the association between air pollution exposure and in-hospital AMI mortality is independent of other mortality risk factors.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      During the study period, there were 149,632 AMI admissions, with 10,983 in-hospital deaths (4,361 STEMI and 4,299 NSTEMI).

The effect of pollutants on NSTEMI mortality was greater in patients with old myocardial infarction (OMI) or percutaneous coronary intervention\/coronary artery bypass grafting (PCI\/CABG) history.
