Description
Summary:Abstract only Background: Several studies suggested that females undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) have poorer outcomes than males. However, we noted contradicting findings regarding short and long-term mortalities among females. Our aim is to assess gender-specific differences in pre and post -operative CABG risk factors and outcomes. Methods: Our cohort included 7,687 adult patients who underwent CABG surgery between 2006 and 2022 in a large rural healthcare system. Patients were grouped by gender and continuous variables were summarized using median and inter-quartile range. Appropriate statistical tests were conducted to assess differences. Results: There were 1827 (23.8%) females and 5860 (76.2%) males. Females were slightly older ((68, 60.5, 75) vs (67, 65, 73), p
