“…A meta-analysis also demonstrated that women have more device-related complications as death, all-cause readmissions, and HF readmissions. At 1-year there MACE and mortality risk after ICD implantation was similar in both sexes [ 261 ]. Moreover, women with HFrEF and a left-bundle branch block undergoing CRT, seem to have more benefit in terms of more pronounced mortality reduction, accompanied by a remarkable reverse remodeling of LV ( Figure 6 ) [ 196 ].…”

Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) have a lower prevalence in women than men; although, a higher mortality rate and a poorer prognosis are more common in women. However, there is a misperception of CVD female risk since women have commonly been considered more protected so that the real threat is vastly underestimated. Consequently, female patients are more likely to be treated less aggressively, and a lower rate of diagnostic and interventional procedures is performed in women than in men. In addition, there are substantial sex differences in CVD, so different strategies are needed. This review aims to evaluate the main gender-specific approaches in CVD.

“…Till now, CVD is perceived as a condition essentially regarding the male gender, although CV events account for the main cause of mortality and morbidity in postmenopausal women ( 3 ). Obviously, if it is clear that many aspects of CVD are similar in male and female patients, there are significant differences as well ( 4 , 5 ).…”

“…In the setting of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), despite advancements in treatment during the last decades, women continue to have worse short-and long-term outcomes than men [2,3]. Several studies have revealed sex-specific differences in AMI regarding clinical presentation, pathophysiological mechanisms, diagnosis, management, and outcomes [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Nevertheless, women remain understudied, as they only represent about 20% of the patients enrolled in AMI clinical trials [7].…”

Background: Women are underrepresented in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) studies. Furthermore, there is scarce information regarding women with AMI in Latin America.Aims: To describe the presentation, clinical characteristics, risk factor burden, evidencebased care, and in-hospital outcome in a population of women with AMI admitted to a coronary care unit (CCU) in Mexico.Methods: Retrospective cohort study including patients with AMI admitted from January 2006 to December 2021 in a CCU. We identified patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI). We described demographic characteristics, clinical variables, treatment, and in-hospital outcomes according to gender. Cox regression analysis was used to identify predictors of mortality. 2 Arias-Mendoza et al.
