UA/NSTEMIEarly invasive (PCI) vs. initial conservativeTotal: 1,810
Women: 682 (38%)
Lower TIMI risk scores, both men and women had similar event rates in early invasive vs. initial conservative treatment arms.

In those with moderate to high risk, men had lower event rates in intervention arm compared with conservative arm while women had higher even rates in the intervention arm.

Moderate risk (women)
Invasive: 13.4%
Conservative: 3.4%

High risk (women)
Invasive: 11.7%
Conservative: 8.2%

Moderate risk (men)
Invasive: 5.4%
Conservative: 9.4%

High risk (men)
Invasive: 10.3%
Conservative: 17.9%

No benefit of intervention was seen in any BMI group for women.

(death/MI/rehospitalization for acute coronary syndrome by risk)

Women with intermediate (3–4) and high (5–7) TIMI risk scores did not have significantly different outcomes in early invasive vs. initial conservative group.
