is there any differences in terms of meaning, which one would you preffer if you were instead of me.

Neither of them are correct:

"They reported significantly inreased 1-year mortlaity in patients with periprocedural CK-MB elevation, even those who had a successful angiographic result."

"They reported a significantly increased 1-year mortality in patients with periprocedural CK-MB elevation, despite angiographic success."

I have corrected the grammar in both. I would choose the first one because the second seems to focus on the success of the procedure rather than the result.
