There are important sex-related differences in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Women are older,more frequently frail,and present more comorbidities than men.Atypical symptoms at presentation are also more common in female patients,they are leaded to a delayed diagnosis and treatment.Coronary angiography and subsequent revascularization are frequently underused in elderly women and they tend to receive less guidelines-recommended therapies.The prognosis in elderly frail women with ACS is poor,and it is with high mortality and readmissions rates.Bleeding is recurrent ischemic events in which it is more frequent in women than in men.Recovery time might be long,and a multidisciplinary approach is desirable to improve prognosis and quality of life.Further studies are needed in order to clarify the benefit of the different therapies in the group of frail women,and this is particularly true for revascularization,as scientific evidence in this group is very scarce.

Introduction Cardiovascular (CV) diseases are the most common causes of death and causes frequent hospital admissions.[1] The increase in life expectancy and the appearance of new treatments,[2] is changing in the clinical profile of CV disease, with a rise in chronic processes and concomitant comorbidities.[ 3] These changes are probably reflected in the current profile of patients admitted to cardiology departments, and in their causes of mortality.

Dear Editor Abscisic acid (ABA) is the main phytohormone involved in adaptive crop responses to drought. ABA signaling relies on the family of pyrabactin resistance 1/PYRl-like/regulatory components of ABA receptors (PYR/PYL/RCAR), which upon ABA binding form high-affinity ternary complexes with clade A protein phosphatases type 2C (PP2Cs) and inhibit them (Cutler et al., 2010). This results in the activation of an SnRK2-dependent phosphorylation cascade affecting a high number of targets in the plant cells, regulating stomatal aper- ture and the expression of stress-responsive genes (Cutler et al., 2010).
