The Outcome of ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction By Sex: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Abstract

We aimed to compare in-hospital mortality (IHM) of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) between male and females. We assessed the association of sex with IHM after AMI using simple and multivariate cox regression models. Results were presented as crude and adjusted hazard ratios along with their 95% confidence interval (HR; 95% CI). Multivariable Cox regression analysis revealed females had a higher risk of death than males after ST-elevation MI (STEMI) (adjusted HR [95% CI]: 1.64 [1.15–2.36]; p = 0.007). In subgroup analysis by age group, this significantly increased risk was only observed in 50- to 64-year-old females. There were no significant differences between genders after non-STEMI and unspecified MI. Women aged 50 to 64 years had higher IHM after STEMI than men.

Dental implant considerations in patients with systemic diseases: An updated comprehensive review

“…In particular, the risk of death in the hospital for patients with acute ST‐elevation MI (STEMI) can range from 4% to 14%, and the mortality rate after dental surgical treatments is 10% annually. More than 70% of relapses occur throughout the first 30 days following the initial occurrence 41 . Although not contraindicated, the dental practitioner must wait until preliminary stabilization of the patient's condition 42 .…”

“…More than 70% of relapses occur throughout the first 30 days following the initial occurrence. 41 Although not contraindicated, the dental practitioner must wait until preliminary stabilization of the patient's condition. 42 A 6-month stabilization period has been recommended 43 ; however, several variables, including the type and severity of the disease, the chosen course of treatment and potential post-MI complications, can increase/decrease the likelihood of recurrence.…”
