Gender Differences in the Development and Prognosis of Coronary Disease Where Initial Disease Manifestation is Stable Angina, Myocardial Infarction or Unheralded Coronary Death: A CALIBER Study Using Linked GPRD-MINAP Data
In Brief
An observational study for Coronary Disease and Cardiovascular Disease. Completed, enrolled 1,758,584 participants.
Detailed Summary
The initial manifestation of symptomatic coronary disease can range from angina (or symptoms of angina), unheralded acute coronary syndrome (ACS), or unheralded coronary death. A better understanding of gender differences in initial presentation of coronary disease and the rate and predictors of progression to subsequent stages in coronary disease could help to identify which gender- specific factors might reduce or slow transition to more serious disease states and improve outcomes. The investigators' research focuses on the role primary care management of cardiovascular risk factors plays in gender differences in the progression to subsequent disease states and to mortality.
