Schematic illustration of the proposed interaction between STEMI, microbial translocation, and future ischemic events. Increased gut permeability and bacterial translocation from the gut lumen due to intestinal hypoperfusion post-STEMI are involved in the pathogenesis of monocytosis and inflammation and have the potential of contributing to further ischemic events and heart failure
