Sex-related differences in fractional flow reserve-guided treatment.
BACKGROUND Sex-specific differences affect the evaluation, treatment, and prognosis of coronary artery disease. We tested the hypothesis that long-term outcomes of fractional flow reserve (FFR)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are different between women and men. METHODS AND RESULTS Consecutive 1090 patients, referred for PCI and undergoing FFR measurements at the Mayo Clinic b...
متن کاملSex differences in regional cerebral blood flow.
Regional cerebral blood flow was measured by the 133-xenon inhalation method during resting in 38 healthy men and 38 healthy women matched pairwise for age in the range 18-72 years. The results showed 11% higher global flow level in the women in all ages. A similar and significant regression of flow by age was seen for both sexes. The regional flow distribution also showed some sex-related diff...

Generally women are believed to be more discriminating than men in the use of color names and this is often taken to imply superior color vision.

متن کاملSex Differences in Age-Related Cardiovascular Mortality
INTRODUCTION Sex-related physiological differences result in different expressions of diseases for men and women. Data are contradicting regarding the increase in the female risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) at mid-life. Thus, we studied possible sex differences in age-adjusted mortality for CVD and non-vascular diseases stratifying our findings by specific age groups. METHODS Over one mi...
متن کاملSex-related Differences in Lung Cancer
Abstract: Although controversial, one of the puzzles in lung carcinogenesis is that women may be at a higher risk of lung cancer than men. The mechanisms underlying the sex differences in lung cancer susceptibility is likely to be multifactorial. Molecular studies have pointed to sex differences in the metabolism of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). We have reported higher levels of PAH-D...
