Medical Research Should Include More Women Participants and Examine the Role of Gender in Disease Incidence and Treatment
Date:5/12/2008

Drs. Hayes and Redberg.

Noting that unexpected gender-based differences have been found in many diseases, including lung cancer, degenerative joint disease, depression and other mental health disorders, Drs. Hayes and Redberg assert that "the lack of sex differences should not be assumed and instead must be systematically studied." Given this information, "analyzing data by sex for conditions or treatments affecting both men and women is the only way we will be able to begin to provide optimal care for all patients," they write.
