“…De acordo com França (2014), o papel de mulheres na "arte de curar" pode ser rastreado através do tempo, mas tradicionalmente apenas figuras masculinas são destacadas. Na antiguidade, as mulheres não eram admitidas nas escolas de Medicina e desta forma, a profissão médica foi considerada exclusivamente masculina.…”

Este artigo expõe os resultados de uma pesquisa que foi norteada pela seguinte questão: qual a representação das mulheres na autoria e corpo editorial de periódicos científicos brasileiros da área cirúrgica nos últimos cinco anos? Os objetivos da pesquisa foram os de identificar e analisar a produção científica brasileira em cirurgia através de artigos científicos publicados no período de 2010 a 2014 em quatro periódicos: Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira (ACB), Arquivos Brasileiros de Cirurgia Digestiva (ABCD), Revista Brasileira de Cirurgia Cardiovascular (RBCCV) e Revista do Colégio Brasileiro de Cirurgiões (RCBC). A análise bibliométrica foi a abordagem metodológica adotada e os resultados obtidos apontaram que 920 artigos foram escritos por 5.649 autores. Os homens aparecem como autores em 63,5% (n= 585) dos artigos, enquanto que as mulheres comparecem como autoras em 23,8% (n=219) do total de artigos. Ao investigar o gênero da autoria nos artigos originais e de revisão, os resultados mostraram que a participação feminina é inferior à masculina em ambos os tipos, e em todos os quatro periódicos. Em relação à participação das mulheres nos corpos editoriais dos periódicos, os resultados revelaram que apenas no periódico ABCD a presença feminina é única e exclusiva, enquanto que no periódico RCBC essa situação se inverte; isto é, não há mulheres no corpo editorial. O estudo realizado demonstrou que persistem as assimetrias de gênero em termos das autorias, coautorias, tipos de artigos (originais e de revisão), e também no corpo editorial, comitê científico e corpo de revisores.

“…For example, the first medical school for women in the USA, the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania, was built in Philadelphia in 1850. Similarly, gender disparities were also historically present in the field of dermatology [1]. We became interested in medical graduate gender disparity after one report from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) nations showed that the percentage of female physicians varied among countries; the highest was 70%, and the lowest was 18% in Estonia and Japan, respectively [2].…”

Background: Career outcomes of top medical graduates (TMG) are seldom studied. The Tsungming Tu Foundation (TTF) has awarded the number one graduate from each medical school in Taiwan since 1981. We aimed to study whether TMG differ from all medical graduates (AMG) in gender, specialty, and geographic regions in the last 30 years.Methods: Overall, 322 TMG and 40,075 AMG were identified from 1981 to 2017 from TTF and Taiwan healthcare public data, respectively. Subjects were further grouped by their graduation year: 1981-1994, 1995-2001, 2002-2011, and after 2012. Ranges were based on implementation dates of new health care policies.Results: The percentages of female AMG increased from 10.9% before 1994 to 32.6% after 2012 (linear trend, P < 0.001). Similarly, the percentages of female TMG increased from 23.1% before 1994 to 42.4% after 2012 (linear trend, P = 0.003). In contrast to 2% of AMG, the percentages of TMG who became dermatologists increased from 11% to 20.5% (linear trend, P = 0.024). TMG favored dermatology, ophthalmology, and neurology, and avoided general surgery (P < 0.001). While still higher than AMG, the percentages of TMG working in medical centers dropped significantly from 58% during 1981-1994 to 33.3% during 1995-2001 (P = 0.035). This coincided with the launch of National Health Insurance in 1995. Finally, though more than half of TMG previously worked in Northern Taiwan, they have recently moved to Central Taiwan. Conclusions:The percentages of female AMG and TMG reached 32.6% and 42.4%, respectively, after 2012. TMG prefer to choose dermatology, ophthalmology, and neurology, but avoid general surgery. Changes in health policy, reimbursement policy, and medical education may be associated with AMG and TMG career choices.

In the past and present, the status of men is often superior to women in most developing countries and it has a negative effect on the social development of these countries. If women are educated as men in a society, then this society can advance rapidly since the effect of educated women influence the quality of life and health in a positive way and not only for those women, but younger generations who follow them as well. This article reviews the history of some remarkable women in dermatology.
