Evaluation of Sex‐Based Differences in the Prescription of the Combination of Evidence‐Based Medicine After the Occurrence of an Acute ST‐Elevation Myocardial Infarction
A smaller proportion of women were prescribed cEBM post-STEMI compared to men. However, this difference disappeared when controlled for other confounders. Also, women remained to have a higher chance for a stroke or death at 6 months post-discharge. These findings highlight the need for further research into sex disparities and their underlying confounders in the field of evidence-based medicine after an acute STEMI.
