Venkatason P, Zubairi YZ, Zaharan NL, et al. - In this retrospective analysis of women with ST-elevation MI (STEMI) and non-STEMI from 18 hospitals across Malaysia using the Malaysian National Cardiovascular Database registry–acute coronary syndrome (NCVD-ACS), experts examined the features and outcomes of young women with MI in Malaysia. Women diagnosed with acute MI from the year 2006 to 2013 were recognized and classified into young (age ≤ 45, n = 292) and elderly women (age > 45, n = 5,580). Young females with MI were over-represented by Malays and those with a family history of premature coronary artery disease. Thus, to decrease cardiovascular risks in young women, preventive measures are required. However in-hospital management was comparable, short-term mortality outcomes favored young in comparison with elderly women.
