Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death in men and women throughout the world even after achieving advancement in the treatment and diagnosis. If considering patients in their old age, women tend to develop CVD later in life as compared to men as they are more likely to develop obesity and also diabetes. Recognizing the differences of sex in terms of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and its management is very important for improving outcomes in women who present with ACS. This article reviews our current understanding of risk factors related to ACS and also its pathophysiology, management, and its outcomes in women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
