Impact of gender on use of revascularization in acute coronary syndromes: The national observational study of diagnostic and interventional cardiac catheterization (ONACI)

Abstract

In the present study, despite having a higher cardiovascular risk profile, women more frequently had normal vessel/non-significant angiographic coronary artery disease. In patients with significant coronary artery disease, myocardial revascularization was less frequently used in women whatever the type of ACS.
