Coronary artery disease (CAD) kills more women than all cancers combined, yet their diagnosis can be missed or delayed. Detection of CAD at an earlier stage in women may result in earlier recognition and treatment and subsequently lower associated morbidity and mortality rates. The purpose of this evidentiary review is to examine the effect of gender on the recognition, treatment, and outcomes of coronary artery disease in women.
冠状动脉疾病（CAD）导致死亡的女性人数超过所有癌症死亡人数的总和，但她们的病情可能会被漏诊或延误。在女性中更早地检测出CAD可能会带来更早的诊断和治疗，进而降低相关的发病率和死亡率。本证据综述的目的是研究性别对女性冠状动脉疾病的诊断、治疗及预后的影响。
