Women show a lower incidence of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) and probably a better prognosis than men. However better survival rate of women tended to be obscured because they were more likely to have histories of hypertension and diabetes and to be older than men. In this paper, incidence, clinical presentation, and prognosis of CAD in women are examined. Furthermore the conflicting reports concerning the effect of estrogen use on morbidity from CAD are reported. Finally the syndrome of angina with a normal coronary arteriogram, sometimes referred to as "Syndrome X" is analyzed.
女性冠心病（CAD）的发病率较低，预后可能比男性更好。然而，女性较高的生存率往往被掩盖，因为她们比男性更易患高血压和糖尿病，且年龄更大。本文研究了女性CAD的发病率、临床表现和预后。此外，还报告了关于使用雌激素对CAD发病率影响的相互矛盾的报道。最后，分析了冠状动脉造影正常的心绞痛综合征，有时称为“X综合征”。
