A wealth of evidence has suggested sex (biological) and gender (sociocultural) differences in the prevalence, progression, and outcomes of persons with chronic kidney disease. Much of this evidence tends to emphasize differences in which women are disadvantaged, and less attention is paid to findings in which women are better off or similar to men. However, gender medicine recognizes that men and women have different disease determinants, presentation, and attitudes, and it pertains to both sexes. In this review, we revisit chronic kidney disease through the perspective of men, and illustrate a population segment at need of stringent preventative and management strategies.
大量证据表明,慢性肾脏病患者的患病率、疾病进展和结局存在性别(生物学)和性别(社会文化)差异。这些证据大多强调了女性处于不利地位的差异,而较少关注女性情况更好或与男性相似的发现。然而,性别医学认识到男性和女性具有不同的疾病决定因素、表现和态度,它涉及到两性。在这篇综述中,我们从男性的角度重新审视慢性肾脏病,并说明了一个需要严格预防和管理策略的人群。
