    Background: We aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of existing gender differences in acute coronary syndrome (ACS), with respect to treatment delays, invasive management of ACS, and short and long-term mortality in patients with ACS.

    Method(s): We defined 37 observational studies (OSs) and 21 randomized trials (RCTs) that best corresponded to our interests. OSs and RCTs were analyzed separately.
