A recent study conducted by the Cedars-Sinai Smidt Heart Institute in Los Angeles, California, highlights the ongoing disparities between men and women in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Despite increased attention to sex-based differences in cardiovascular care, there are still significant differences in short- and long-term outcomes. The study emphasizes the need to identify differences in treatment patterns for various types of heart disease and the importance of considering age as a factor. The review also discusses the barriers to implementing evidence-based therapies due to inadequate representation of women in clinical trials. The researchers call for further investigation and improvement in clinical guidelines and care implementation to address these disparities. [Extracted from the article] |
