Does physician sex influence CV outcomes?
This article reviews evidence suggesting outcome differences may exist across settings, highlighting possible links to communication, guideline use, and care delivery, while noting the complexity of causality.

ALT "Ultimately, these disparities reflect structural inequities within healthcare systems and society. Cardiovascular professionals must remain aware of how their actions can perpetuate these inequities and consciously consider sex, gender, race, and ethnicity when personalizing patient treatment."

Women’s heart health remains at risk as gaps in sex-specific research, male-focused diagnostics, and low trial enrollment contribute to underdiagnosis and undertreatment.
Sex-specific studies are vital to advance care and equity in cardiology.

❤️In #MINOCA, risk stratification should inform secondary prevention, not therapeutic nihilism.
Future research must focus on mechanism-driven integrated approaches
