“…This gender bias in research and the scant consideration of sex-related differences in clinical trials undermine the certainty of the evidence produced and may have negative consequences for health. In 2015, Vázquez et al [ 29 ] identified a triple gender bias in the health system, while Ruíz-Cantero MT et al [ 30 ] highlighted the importance of analyzing diagnostic criteria and normal cutoff points from a gender perspective, especially for diseases associated principally with men. In 2018, Aggarwal et al [ 31 ] concluded that risk factors for ischemic heart disease should be stratified by sex.…”

Evidence shows that objectives for detecting and controlling dyslipidemia are not being effectively met, and outcomes differ between men and women. This study aimed to assess gender-related differences in diagnostic inertia around dyslipidemia. This ambispective, epidemiological, cohort registry study included adults who presented to public primary health care centers in a Spanish region from 2008 to 2012, with dyslipidemia and without cardiovascular disease. Diagnostic inertia was defined as the registry of abnormal diagnostic parameters—but no diagnosis—on the person’s health record in a window of six months from inclusion. A total of 58,970 patients were included (53.7% women) with a mean age of 58.4 years in women and 57.9 years in men. The 6358 (20.1%) women and 4312 (15.8%) men presenting diagnostic inertia had a similar profile, although in women the magnitude of the association with younger age was larger. Hypertension showed a larger association with diagnostic inertia in women than in men (prevalence ratio 1.81 vs. 1.56). The overall prevalence of diagnostic inertia in dyslipidemia is high, especially in women. Both men and women have a higher risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality.

“…Se considera que ambos sexos tienen idéntico riesgo, sin embargo, algunos estudios señalan que el riesgo podría ser mayor en las mujeres por razones relacionadas con las características del dolor (33), comorbilidad (25,34) o por el mayor acceso a los opioides de prescripción (35). Por todo ello, la interrelación e integración del sexo, como marcador biológico, al género como indicador de comportamiento (36), podría mejorar la efectividad y eficiencia de los programas comunitarios (16,37). Significa que debemos desarrollar las herramientas de investigación necesarias para estar en condiciones de detectar los factores que ponen a las mujeres y los hombres en un riesgo diferencial y abordarlos con intervenciones eficaces (38).…”
