Table 3 Multivariate analysis between non-fatal acute myocardial infarction and several risk factors for cardiovascular disease in females and males

From: Sex differences in the association between insulin resistance and non-fatal myocardial infarction across glycaemic states

 

Dependent variable: non-fatal acute MI
