😊 first-authorship on @JACCjournals❗️ @beamusumeci1 jacc.org/doi/abs/10.101… - Thankful to @FraSantoroMD, Prof. ND Brunetti, @IngoEitel @t_stiermaier and @ibnsky for this collaboration and for setting up the #GEIST registry on its very beginning - few considerations below 🧵
1/8 Males represent approx. 10% of #Takotsubo patients within the registry. As comapred with females, they have ⬆️comorbid burden (malignancies, COPD etc.), ⬆️physical trigger ⬇️LVEF, worse in-hospital and long-term outcome.
2/8 These results were expected, when looking at smaller previously published studies, but why is that? Is the #takotsubo attack itself worse in men or do they just suffer because of the vulnerable comorbid background?
