title: [The characteristics of repeated myocardial infarcts in men and women].
abstract: 117 patients, 89 men and 28 women, with repeated myocardial infarction were followed up for a two year period. The following were taken into consideration: risk factors, number and localization of previous infarctions, interinfarction period, clinical onset of the new infarction, complications, electrocardiographic changes, time of death, causes of death, pathologicoanatomical localization of the new and old infarctions in comparison with the electrocardiographic localization. Statistically significant differences between the two sexes were found for the death of cardiogenic shock--48.9% for men and 13.3 for women (p less than 0.01) and for chronic cardiac failure as a complication of the second myocardial infarction--50.0% for women and 16.1% for men (p less than 0.001). For all other indices the differences were not statistically significant.
