2、ngle line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the .following passage.A recent study discovered that after surviving a heart attack, women have a slightly higher risk than men of dying in the next 30 days. The finding, researchers say, likely reflects the differences in the

3、type of heart failure women experience, as well as the severity of the condition. (When the severity of the heart attack was taken into consideration, the mortality rates were more comparable between men and women). The study examined medical records for more than 136,000 patients who had suffered f

4、rom acute coronary syndromes (ACS急性冠狀動(dòng)脈綜合癥) . They found that, in the month after first suffering ACS, the mortality rate among men was 5.3%, compared with 9.6% in women.Under the umbrella term ACS there are multiple conditions-including heart attack caused by either completely or partially blocked

5、blood supply, and what doctors refer to as "unstable angina (心絞痛) ," or when slowly decreasing blood and oxygen supply causes tightness in the chest, often a precursor (前兆) to the more severe types of heart attack. In this study, a heart attack caused by completely or nearly completely blo

6、cked blood supply was more likely to result in death after 30 days for women, compared with men. But for slightly less severe incidents, in which blood flow was partially or temporarily blocked, or in cases of unstable angina, women had lower mortality rates in the following 30 days than men did.The

7、 differences, which incorporate both sex and type of ACS, suggest to researchers that physicians should take gender into consideration when assessing patients, and deciding on the best course of treatment or prevention. Women, who in the study tended to be older than men when they suffered heart att

8、ack, were also more likely to have concurrent complications (并發(fā)癥) such as diabetes (糖尿病) or hypertension (高血壓) . And whereas men were more likely to have narrowed coronary arteries (冠狀動(dòng)脈), which was less frequently the case among women. After a more severe incident, the fact that women had a greater

9、 risk for death suggested to doctors that it might be due to the subsequent reduction in blood flow. On the other hand, that they got along better than men after the less severe forms of ACS-partial blockage or unstable angina-was likely a result of the generally less severe blockages seen in women,

10、 as compared to men.Heart disease is the leading cause of death among both men and women, and though, overall women's health outcomes continue to be slightly worse than men's, they are improving. And, researchers hope, with more studies illuminating the way in which heart disease uniquely im

11、pacts women and men, new gender- specific treatment methods may be the way of the future.56. What does the study indicate about acute coronary syndromes (ACS) ?A. It can have different impact on women and men.B. It can be regarded as the leading cause of death among these patients.C. It can lead to

What is the possible reason for women's lower death risk in case of less severe ACS?A. The blood supply decreased subsequently.B. They

To decrease the mortality rate in 30 days after the heart attack.最近的一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)。在心臟病發(fā)作后的30天.女性的死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)要略微高于男性。研究者們認(rèn)為這個(gè)發(fā)現(xiàn)可能反映出女性經(jīng)歷的心臟衰竭類型上的差別，以及狀況的嚴(yán)重程度。 (當(dāng)把心臟病發(fā)作的嚴(yán)重程度考慮在內(nèi)時(shí)，男性和女性的死亡率更具可比性。) 這項(xiàng)研究檢查了13600余名急性冠狀動(dòng)脈綜合癥患者的病歷。他們發(fā)現(xiàn).在急性冠狀動(dòng)脈綜合癥首次發(fā)作后的一個(gè)月內(nèi).男性的死亡率為5.3%.而

16、女性為9.6%。在急性冠狀動(dòng)脈綜合癥這個(gè)涵蓋性術(shù)語(yǔ)下有很多不同的狀況，包括完全或部分血液供應(yīng)受阻引發(fā)的心臟病，和醫(yī)生稱為“不穩(wěn)定型心絞痛”、或者逐漸減少的血液和氧氣供應(yīng)造成的胸悶，這經(jīng)常是更為嚴(yán)重的心臟病發(fā)作的前兆。在這項(xiàng)研究中，與男性相比，由完全或幾乎完全血液供應(yīng)受阻引發(fā)的心臟病更可能導(dǎo)致女性在30天后死亡，但是在略微不嚴(yán)重的情況下，例如血流被部分或者暫時(shí)堵塞、或者是不穩(wěn)定型心絞痛，女性在接下來(lái)的30天內(nèi)的死亡率要低于男性。這些在性別和急性冠狀動(dòng)脈綜合癥類型上的差別，向研究者們表明醫(yī)生在評(píng)估患者病情，決定最佳治療或預(yù)防方案時(shí)應(yīng)該把性別考慮在內(nèi)。這項(xiàng)研究中的女性在心臟病發(fā)作時(shí)一般比男性年紀(jì)大.
