“…Age over 84 years, female gender, educational level, smoking, lack of thrombolytic therapy, type 2 diabetes, our study, a difference in the age at MI incidence was noted between men and women, which is consistent with other studies. Age over 84 years was yielded as a risk factor for death, in agreement with works in other countries such as Japan and Korea [4,[16][17][18].…”

“…In the Framingham study, this ratio was 10:1 in-patients under 45 years old, declining progressively to approximately 2:1 in-patients over 75 years old. [ 24 25 ] Finally, approximately 11.6% and 6.5% of men and women, respectively, in our study had a family history of early coronary artery disease, with a significant difference. Our results indicated that the familial history of early coronary artery disease was an important cardiovascular risk factor in both male and female patients.…”

“…In our study, the prevalence of diabetes was 22.2%, which is higher compared to Japan. [ 24 ] The age at MI incidence was lower in India than in Iran. Furthermore, the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and other risk factors including hypertension and smoking in MI patients was lower in Iran than in India.…”

Current status of the clinical epidemiology of myocardial infarction in men and women: A national cross-sectional study in Iran

Background:Cardiovascular disease is the main reason for mortality in men and women. Clinical epidemiology of myocardial infarction (MI) in men and women has not been yet studied in Iran, one of the largest Middle East countries in South-Western Asia. This study was conducted to determine the clinical epidemiology of MI in men and women in Iran.Methods:This hospital-based, cross-sectional study used the data of 20,750 MI patients in Iran in 2012 (the codes I22, I21, I24, and I25.2). Univariate comparisons used Chi-square test for categorical variables and t-test for continuous variables. P < 0.05 was considered as significant.Results:Totally, 20,750 MI patients (15,033 men and 5,717 women) with age range of 13–106 (mean; 61.2 ± 13.4) years were enrolled. Only 9 (0.04%) patients (8 men and 1 woman) were ≤18 years (mean age: 14.8 ± 1.9), out of whom only two men were diabetic. 22.2% (18% men and 33.4% women) of the patients had diabetes, 26.2% (28.5% men and 20.1% women) were smoker and 35.5% (28.6% men and 53.7% women) had hypertension. ST-segment elevation MI incidence was 2.8 times higher in men than women. Left bundle branch block was significantly more prevalent in men than women. Men used percutaneous coronary intervention more frequently than women did. No difference in coronary artery bypass graft was noted between men and women. Mortality incidence was approximately twice higher in men than women. The prevalence of chest pain was higher in women than men.Conclusions:The MI incidence pattern, mortality from MI, and risk factors prevalence are significantly different between men and women in Iran. More emphasis on these issues in training people and healthcare professionals seems to contribute partially to patients’ timely referring to health care centers and preventing MI-associated mortalities.

“…Hypertensive AMI patients had worse outcomes, but antecedent hypertension was not associated with 1-year mortality [5,6]. Patients with prior cerebrovascular disease (CVD) presented more frequently with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), were less likely to receive reperfusion therapy, and had worse clinical outcomes compared with patients without a history of CVD [7].…”

The Korea Acute Myocardial Infarction Registry (KAMIR) was the first nationwide registry data collection designed to track outcomes of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). These studies reflect the current therapeutic approaches and management for AMI in Korea. The results of KAMIR could help clinicians to predict the prognosis of their patients and identify better diagnostic and treatment tools to improve the quality of care. The KAMIR score was proposed to be a predictor of the prognosis of AMI patients. Triple antiplatelet therapy, consisting of aspirin, clopidogrel and cilostazol, was effective at preventing major adverse clinical outcomes. Drug-eluting stents were effective and safe in AMI patients with no increased risk of stent thrombosis. Statin therapy was effective in Korean AMI patients, including those with very low levels of low density cholesterol. The present review summarizes the 10-year scientific achievements of KAMIR from admission to outpatient care during long-term clinical follow-up.
