Influence of sex on the timing of coronary angiography and the prescription of antiplatelet therapy in patients with nonST-segment elevation myocardial infarction

However, we detected no differences in the frequency of coronary revascularization or in-hospital events according to sex.PMID:38597619 | DOI:10.55633/s3me/016.2024
