Key result
Biological sex alters CV disease management, warranting sex-specific thresholds in clinical practice.
Why the study?
Biological sex impacts cardiovascular disease diagnosis and management, but sex-specific differences are often overlooked in clinical practice and research.
Shows how biological sex influences cardiovascular disease diagnosis, risk scoring, and clinical care, highlighting the need for sex-specific diagnostic and management strategies.
