Trial to Test Gene Therapy for Angina in Women
Date:9/4/2007

ight need to be treated differently than men.

The Associated Press reported that a small study of 184 women conducted by Dr. Eva Swahn of the department of cardiology at University Hospital in Linkoping, Sweden, found that women who had major heart operations like a coronary bypass were more likely than men to die.

Although experts said no conclusions could be drawn from the finding, they agreed that the idea that women might need different heart disease treatment than men should be studied further, according to the AP.
