Objective:
To investigate the impact of gender and age on in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events of patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Methods:
This is a retrospective single-center study. A total of consecutive 1 102 patients with acute STEMI admitted to our hospital from January 2001 to December 2010 were recruited and clinical data were analyzed. The primary end point was in-hospital death due to any cause, and the secondary end point was in-hospital composite end point including death, re-infarction and stroke. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the risk factors of in hospital death and composite end point.
Results:
The study population included 283(25.7%(283/1 102)) female patients and female patients were older than male patients ((68.7±11.2)years vs. (59.2±12.5)years,
