The clinical characteristics, managements, and outcomes of acute myocardial infarction in osteoarthritis patients; a cross-sectional analysis of 6.5 million patients
CONCLUSIONS: This study of a representative sample of the US population highlights that OA patients are less likely to be offered invasive interventions following AMI. OA was also associated with better outcomes post-AMI, possibly attributed to a misclassification bias where unwell patients with OA were less likely to receive an OA code because codes for serious illness took precedence.PMID:38284347 | DOI:10.1080/14779072.2024.2311696
