Comparison of clinical diagnosis between younger and older Gujarati patients with acute coronary syndrome*

Clinical diagnosis Younger Group (≤40 years) n= 100 Older Group (>40 years) n= 100 p-value
Anterior wall STEMI, n (%) 61 (61.0%) 51 (51.0%) 0.156
Inferior wall STEMI, n (%) 24 (24.0%) 30 (30.0%) 0.337
NSTEMI, n (%) 9 (9.0%) 14 (14.0%) 0.267
Unstable Angina, n (%) 6 (6.0%) 5 (5.0%) 0.756
Ejection Fraction, %(mean ± SD) 43.48 ± 8.92 42.99 ± 11.63 0.738

*Values are expressed as number (%) of patients or mean ± SD; P value was calculated using the Student’s t-test for continuous variables and the Chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test for categorical variables; STEMI, ST segment elevation myocardial infarction; NSTEMI, Non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
