UNASSIGNED: Current data regarding gender disparities in outcomes after @entity1151 ( @entity1151 ) are limited and controversial. We sought to assess the gender-specific rates and trends in treatment, outcomes, and complications after acute @entity1151 . We used the 2003 to 2011 Nationwide Inpatient Sample database for this analysis. All hospital admissions with a principal diagnosis of acute @entity1151 were identified using the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Edition, codes. Inhospital mortality and discharge to nursing facility were co-primary outcomes of our study. Secondary outcomes included shock, transfusion of blood products, utilization of thrombolysis, inferior vena cava filter placement, and cost of hospitalization. Over a 9-year period, a total of 276,484 discharges with acute @entity1151 were identified. Compared with @entity1 , there was significantly higher inhospital mortality in @entity1 admitted with acute @entity1151 (odds ratio [OR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.03 to 1.15). In addition, there was a significantly higher need for discharge to nursing facility among @entity1 compared with @entity1 (OR 1.30, 95% CI 1.27 to 1.34). Besides this, @entity1 experienced a higher need for transfusion (OR 1.38, 95% CI 1.33 to 1.44) and occurrence of shock (OR 1.10, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.18) during hospitalization. Furthermore, there was a significantly lower utilization of vena cava filters (OR 0.86, 95% CI 0.84 to 0.89) in @entity1 compared with @entity1 . Among @entity1 in shock who were eligible for thrombolysis (age <75  years, no previous @entity64 , no @entity548 on presentation, and not pregnant), the utilization of thrombolysis was similar between @entity1 and @entity1 (OR 1.19, 95% CI 0.93 to 1.53). Lastly, the cost of hospitalization after acute @entity1151 was significantly higher in @entity1 than @entity1 (adjusted mean difference  425, 95% CI  304 to  546). In conclusion, among @entity1 admitted with acute @entity1151 , @entity1 tend to have more adverse outcomes and higher incidence of complications compared with @entity1 .
