Competing risk analysis, using age as time scale and stratified on the year variable; based on patients presented with STEMI in the General Hospital of Vienna on weekends between 2000 and 2012. Individuals were followed and thus their deaths registered until 31 December 2018. High-income districts serve as a reference category for SEE and men serve as a reference category for sex in the full sample.

ACS, acute coronary syndrome; CAD, coronary artery disease; N, number of observations; SEE, socio-economic environment; STEMI, ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.
