Key result
Female gender was associated with lower odds of receiving PCI in STEMI (OR 0.86; 95% CI 0.77-0.95) and NSTEMI (OR 0.75; 95% CI 0.70-0.82) patients, but did not independently impact mortality.

Fewer PCIs in women with MI do not affect mortality; leaves open questions on care equity and PCI decision-making.

Yes
Does female gender impact the likelihood of receiving PCI and 30-day or 1-year mortality in patients with myocardial infarction?
Odds Ratio: 0.86 (95% CI 0.77–0.95)
Although women with myocardial infarction are less likely to undergo PCI than men, gender itself is not an independent prognostic factor for 30-day or 1-year mortality.
Jánosi et al. (2018) conducted a cohort in Myocardial infarction (n=42,953). Female gender vs. Male gender was evaluated on Performing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in STEMI patients (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.77-0.95). Female gender was associated with lower odds of receiving PCI in STEMI (OR 0.86; 95% CI 0.77-0.95) and NSTEMI (OR 0.75; 95% CI 0.70-0.82) patients, but did not independently impact mortality.
