Sex-based differences in remote monitoring of biometric, psychometric and biomarker indices in stable ischemic heart disease
Abstract
Highlights Among patients with stable ischemic heart disease, adherence to remote psychometric data collection was higher among males than females There was a statistically significant (p<0.05) difference in sleep duration between sexes, with females sleeping 6 minutes longer. However, females reported poorer sleep quality scores. While females reported worse psychometric scores, there was no significant difference in remotely measured physical activity between females and males. Elevated levels of biomarkers for major adverse cardiac events were more often found in males than females.
