Sex Differences Using Cox Proportional Hazards Models for 1-Year Rehospitalization, Mortality, and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events Controlling for Baseline Covariates
1-year outcome | Hazard ratio and CI Women versus men Veterans | p-value |
---|---|---|
Rehospitalization | 0.97 (0.55, 1.70) | 0.9074 |
Mortality | 0.89 (0.62, 1.29) | 0.5385 |
MACE | 0.94 (0.70, 1.26) | 0.6624 |
All models adjust for age, Framingham risk category, race, and other cardiac risk factors (including congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral artery disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), obesity, and acuity of presentation (acute coronary syndrome, stable angina, or other/unknown).
