- Registries
- Women presented at older age comparing to men. As most
female patients presented at age group >٥٥ years old and most
male patients presented at age group <٥٥ years old
- Women had a higher prevalence of diabetes, hypertension,
and dyslipedmia than their male counterparts.

counterparts
- Amongst the female group, only١٤.٢٢% of patients gave a
history of smoking. On comparison, ٨٤.٤% of male patients
gave a history of smoking.
- Women had more comorbid conditions than men; clinically,
but not statistically significant as cerebrovascular disease and
renal impairment.
- Women with ACS more likely than men to present with
atypical symptoms, although most male patients presented
with typical chest pain
- ٥٥.٠٥% of the female patients were menopausal. ٨.٣ % of the
female patients were on hormonal replacement therapy. Of
the ٤٤.٩٥% still menstruating patients, ٣٤.٦% of patients were
