BACKGROUND Plaque erosion can occur quietly without causing clinical symptoms, followed by a healing process resulting in healed plaque. This study aimed to assess culprit and non-culprit plaque characteristics of patients with acute myocardial ...

Gender-based in vivo comparison of culprit plaque characteristics and plaque microstructures using optical coherence tomography in acute coronary syndrome [PDF]
Introduction: Women perform worse after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) than men. The reason for these differences is unclear. The aim was to ascertain gender differences in the culprit plaque characteristics in ACS.
