    Answer: Myocardial infraction can be defined as the condition which is caused due to absence of oxygen in major parts of the heart.

    This also causes ischemia which occurs primarily and myocardial infraction occurs secondarily to this.

    When, oxygen and nutrients from the blood reaches to the area which was deprived of oxygen results in inflammation and oxidative damage.

    This is caused due to induction of oxidative stress rather than the normal functioning of the body.
