Abstract

In Reply: The aim of our article was to examine whether sex differences in care and outcomes for people with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) had declined through analysis of the New South Wales Admitted Patient Data Collection from 2011 to 2020 [1]. This found that care and outcomes had improved over time among patients with STEMI and that this improvement was steeper in females compared with males and, thus, the gap by sex had narrowed over time.

In summary, our study focussed on changes in trends of treatment and outcomes over time in each of the sexes; age adjustment did not change our conclusion that the steepness of the trend to improvement is greater in females compared with males.

2011-2020年新南威尔士州st段抬高型心肌梗死患者治疗和预后的性别差异：一项回顾性队列研究

回复：我们文章的目的是通过分析2011年至2020年新南威尔士州住院患者数据收集，研究st段抬高型心肌梗死（STEMI）患者的护理和结局的性别差异是否已经下降。研究发现，随着时间的推移，STEMI患者的护理和预后有所改善，而且与男性相比，女性的改善幅度更大，因此，性别之间的差距随着时间的推移而缩小。总之，我们的研究关注的是两性治疗趋势和结果随时间的变化；年龄调整并没有改变我们的结论，即与男性相比，女性改善趋势的陡峭程度更大。Samia Kazi：写作（原稿）。Simone Marschner：写作（原稿）。周星驰：撰写（原稿）。Clara K.
