Gender and age differences in outcomes of patients with acute coronary syndromes referred for coronary angiography

The number of elderly patients undergoing coronary revascularization is steadily increasing, and data on the impact of gender on outcomes are scarce. This study sought to assess gender‐related differences in outcomes in elderly patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
