Gender Disparities in Coronary Artery Disease Presentation, Diagnosis and Treatment Outcomes: A Contemporary Analysis

Abstract

Marco Carbone*

Coronary artery disease is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Over the years, research has highlighted significant genderbased disparities in CAD presentation, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes. This contemporary analysis aims to comprehensively examine the existing literature on gender disparities in CAD, with a focus on understanding the differences in clinical presentation, diagnostic approaches, and treatment outcomes between men and women. By identifying the underlying factors contributing to these disparities, healthcare professionals and policymakers can develop targeted interventions to improve CAD management and outcomes for all individuals, regardless of gender.
