Gender Differences in Clinical, Angiographic and Procedural Profiles between Young Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

Abstract: Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is increasingly prevalent among young patients, particularly in South Asia, where young patients are known to present with multiple risk factors and gender-based differences in angiographic profiles. This study aimed to compare gender differences in clinical, angiographic and procedural profiles between young patients with ACS undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods: This prospective observational study was done at the National Institute of Cardiova… Show more

“…In case of PCI and NSTE-ACS [13][14] , the rate was quite high in case of women. These findings are consistent with the previous reports where similar success ratio was found between men and women 15 .…”

“…The South Asian nations of India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Nepal account for about a quarter of the world’s population and contribute the highest proportion of the world’s CVD burden, many of whom are also young [ 103 ]. There are considerable data on sex differences of ACS in the region, particularly from India [ 11 , 12 , 106 , 107 , 108 ] and Bangladesh [ 18 , 105 , 109 , 110 ], albeit women comprising less than a quarter of participants [ 11 , 12 , 105 , 106 ]. Demographics were similar to global patterns, with women being older, with more CV risk factors, notably more diabetes and hypertension [ 11 , 12 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 , 109 , 111 , 112 ].…”

Sex-based analyses of Indian ACS registries reveal conflicting evidence on ACS care [ 11 , 12 , 106 , 108 ].…”

“…However, this finding is in contrast to that of Cader et al who showed that women tended to have a better ejection fraction and less severe coronary involvement. 24 This study highlights data from our part of world, as data on gender differences in young adults who presented with ACS are sparse. Our results were similar to those of earlier studies (but they were from an older age population) and our study emphasized that young women were relatively older in age, sought medical attention later, and had poor overall outcomes than men.…”
