Description
In our latest episode, Consulting Editor Dr. Kristine DeLeon-Pennell (Medical University of South Carolina) interviews fellow co-authors Dr. Charlotte Usselman (McGill University), Dr. Judy Regensteiner (University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus), Dr. Kerrie Moreau (University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus), Dr. Austin Robinson (Indiana University Bloomington), Dr. Jesse Moreira-Bouchard (Boston University), and Dr. Quin Denfeld (Oregon Health and Science University) about their recently published guidelines on the use of sex and gender in cardiovascular research. Until recently, the effects of sex and gender in cardiovascular research have been largely ignored in research design and reporting. The result is that women and gender diverse individuals have been understudied in basic and clinical research, leading to a lack of understanding of sex and gender in cardiovascular health and disease. The goal of these guidelines is to provide researchers with practical and actionable advice on best practices to include sex and gender considerations in study design, data collection, analysis, and interpretation. As Dr. Judy Regensteiner points out, “We have to make it doable. We can’t just say, ‘Go do this.’ We have to show people how to do it.” Ready to get started? Listen now to learn more.   Charlotte W.
