Twelve case-crossover studies with 19â¯891 patients were included in our systematic review with meta-analysis to estimate how many acute myocardial infarctions may be attributed to bouts of physical exertion and to explore possible modifiers of this association.Approximately 10.6% of all acute myocardial infarctions may be attributed to physical exertion, but the impact was greater in younger individuals or those engaged in exertion one to three times/week. Among the latter, exertion triggers approximately every fifth infarction.Beta-blockers may provide a protection from the triggering effect of physical exertion.
