摘要
Randomised clinical trials of drug treatment for chronic heart failure are the basis of many physicians' beliefs about heart failure. Due to the selection bias of such studies-which preferentially recruit relatively young white men with coronary artery disease-relatively little attention has focused on gender differences in heart failure. This article provides an overview of such gender differences, based on population-based studies in North America and Europe.
