ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) triggers a significant inflammatory response. Sweat may offer a novel, non-invasive medium for monitoring inflammation. In this prospective study, we characterized the inflammatory signatures in plasma and sweat collected from the skin surface of two patient groups: (1) 18 STEMI patients immediately following percutaneous coronary intervention (exposure) and (2) six patients who underwent outpatient angiography without subsequent intervention (control). Levels of 92 biomarkers were measured using a high-throughput proteomic assay and reassessed after 4-6 weeks in STEMI patients. Adjusting for patient group, sweat biomarkers did not show significant changes over time. In plasma, hepatocyte growth factor and interleukin-6 showed a significant decrease from the acute phase to follow-up, adjusted for patient group. STAM binding protein was significantly higher in the sweat of STEMI patients compared to controls, adjusted for time effects. While sweat was less sensitive than plasma for detecting biomarker levels in the setting of STEMI, its longitudinal analysis via wearable sensors holds promise for detecting specific markers.Trial registration: The trial is registered on www.clinicaltrials.gov with the trial registration number NCT05843006.
