dc.description.abstract© 2020 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Introduction: Recent studies report that syncope is not a significant predictor of 30-day mortality in pulmonary embolism (PE) patients, yet some data suggest sex-related differences may be relevant. Objectives: To evaluate sex-specific prediction significance of syncope for 30-day mortality in PE patients. Methods: A multicentric, retrospective, observational, registry-based study on consecutive PE patients was undertaken. Patients were allocated into either a men or a women group before comparisons were made between patients with syncope and those without syncope. A sex-related prediction of the significance of syncope for 30-day mortality was evaluated. Results: Overall 588 patients [294 (50%) men and 294 (50%) women] were included within the study. Among men, patients with syncope were older and had significantly higher parameters of increased 30-day mortality then patients without syncope. Within the same group, however, difference in the 30-day mortality rate was not significant (log rank P =.942). In contrast to the men, fewer differences in admission characteristics were noticed among women, but those with syncope had significantly increased signs of the right ventricular dysfunction and increased 30-day mortality rate, as compared with those without syncope (log rank P =.025). After adjustment for age in a Cox regression analysis, syncope was a significant predictor of 30-day mortality in women (HR = 2.01, 95%CI 1.02-3.95). Conclusion: Although syncope is associated with other predictors of higher early mortality in both male and female PE patients, only in women it is a significant predictor of 30-day mortality.-
