flag Men with "broken heart syndrome" have more than double the death rate compared to women, a study finds.

flag A study in the Journal of the American Heart Association found that men with takotsubo cardiomyopathy, or broken heart syndrome, are more than twice as likely to die from the condition compared to women. flag This rare stress-induced heart condition, which mimics a heart attack, affects mostly women, but men have a mortality rate of 11.2%. flag The study suggests that differences in hormone levels and social factors may contribute to the higher mortality rate in men. flag Further research is needed to understand the disparities and develop better treatment methods.
