Post-menopause women show increased levels in risk prediction scores with age as dependent variable

Abstract Background Men and women differ in outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, frequently used scores for ischemic risk prediction in patients with cardiovascular disease do not include sex related factors. In this study, we aimed to analyze sex related differences in r...

Description
Summary:Abstract Background Men and women differ in outcome after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, frequently used scores for ischemic risk prediction in patients with cardiovascular disease do not include sex related factors. In this study, we aimed to analyze sex related differences in risk score prediction in patients after PCI in dependence from age-determined menopause. Methods In this mono-center analysis, we compared frequently used risk prediction scores for post PCI patients (GRACE [Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events], PRECISE-DAPT [PREdicting bleeding Complications In patients undergoing Stent implantation and subsEquent Dual Antiplatelet Therapy], NCDR-mortality and PARIS [Patterns of Non-Adherence to Anti-Platelet Regimen in Stented Patients]-thrombotic score) in male versus female post PCI patients in dependence from menopause (age determined) and age itself. Three-year follow-up was conducted to assess the incidence of MACCE (major adverse cerebro- and cardiovascular events) including all-cause mortality, myocardial infarction and stroke. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was conducted to analyze predictive capacity of each score. Results 1,001 patients post PCI were included (38% chronic coronary syndrome [CCS], 61% acute coronary syndrome [ACS]). Out of these, 765 were male and 306 were female. Women were slightly older (68.1±11.5 vs. 73.3±11.3 years, p55 years, GRACE, PD-DAPT and NCDR Mortality scores were higher in woman compared to men (GRACE – 120.5±27.89 vs. 128.5±29.97, p
