The scientific review indicates that women receive fewer cardiac interventions than men, with treatment often focusing more on medication rather than interventional procedures such as artery surgeries or heart surgeries, especially in cases of advanced heart disease and heart failure. Studies have shown statistically significant differences in the type and amount of treatments provided between genders, and these disparities persist even after adjusting for other factors. This raises questions about the causes of bias or preferences in treatment decisions. Potential reasons include the underrepresentation of women in clinical studies and varying medical approaches, but researchers warn that the findings do not identify a direct cause; rather, they highlight a healthcare gap between women and men in the field of cardiovascular disease.
