| 8 | Cardiogenic shock in the setting of acute myocardial infarction:Another area of sex disparity?显示文摘Cardiogenic shock in the setting of acute myocardial infarction(AMI)carries significant morbidity and mortality,despite advances in pharmacological,mechanical and reperfusion therapies.Studies suggest that there is evidence of sex disparities in the risk profile,management,and outcomes of cardiogenic shock complicating AMI.Compared with men,women tend to have more comorbidities,greater variability in symptom presentation and are less likely to receive timely revascularization and mechanical circulatory support.These factors might explain why women tend to have worse outcomes.In this review,we highlight sex-based differences in the prevalence,management,and outcomes of cardiogenic shock due to AMI,and discuss potential ways to mitigate them. | Syed Bukhari Shumail Fatima Islam Y Elgendy | 2021 | World Journal of Cardiology2021，13，6： | 1 |
