The Patriarchal System: The Exclusion of Women in Medical Case Studies

[ismnotwasm]

3. This is interesting and so sadly true

Quick glance; I can find more evidence from a decade ago than currently, but I'm sure this still exists; the heart disease one is a perfect example. Now, I'm wondering if it's more how certain studies are conducted

This study is... interesting, I dislike studies using a questionnaire and drawing broad conclusions
Marital Stress Worsens Prognosis in Women With Coronary Heart Disease

I'm not going sign up or buy this study right now, but I'll try to find it using university access; another...interesting premise.
Sex Differences in Physiological Responses to Stress and in Coronary Heart Disease: A Causal Link?

If either of the above studies included the stress and damage sexism caused, I'd be less snarky.

Anyway, there's tons more; my specialty is renal and transplant; I'm very interested to see if, as health studies improve regards to gender, if there are studies looking into prior gender bias incorporated into current studies on women's health.
