摘要：

There is growing evidence that the onset of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is related to numerous endogenous and exogenous daily rhythms. AMI may occur at any time of day, but peak incidence occurs during the morning.(1-5) The morning increase in adrenergic activity, hormone levels, and coagulability could create a transient risk state, and thus precipitate AMI.(6-11) Some daily activities or unusual events produce similar physiologic responses and it is currently accepted that physical exertion, mental stress, and other conditions may trigger AMI.(1,2,4,12-17) We have reported that infarctions of anterior and inferior wall may have different typical triggers.(1) In this study, we report on the role of gender in triggering AMI.
