Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome is a congenital cardiac preexcitation syndrome that arises from abnormal cardiac electrical conduction through an accessory pathway and results in symptomatic and life-threatening arrhythmias. The aim of this study is to analyze the patterns of gender representation among first-author publications concerning "Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome" within the PubMed-indexed publications from "January 1, 1973, to December 31, 2022," based on country and year. On May 9, 2023, bibliometric analysis was performed. The phrase "(Wolf-Parkinson-White Syndrome)" was looked up in PubMed. It covered articles released between January 1, 1973, and December 31, 2022. Articles accepted in the year 2022 and published in Pubmed in 2023 were included in the study. A total of 138 articles were considered and included in our analysis. Among these articles, 29 (21.01%) were authored by females, while 109 (78.99%) were authored by males. To conclude, this research study reveals a rising trend of females in lead authorship roles within the field of cardiac arrhythmia research. However, it remains evident that there is a significant gender gap, with male researchers still outnumbering their female counterparts.
预激综合征是一种先天性心脏预激综合征,由异常的心脏电传导通过旁路引起,可导致有症状的、危及生命的心律失常。本研究的目的是基于国家和年份,分析1973年1月1日至2022年12月31日在PubMed索引出版物中关于“预激综合征”的第一作者出版物中的性别代表性模式。2023年5月9日,进行了文献计量分析。在PubMed中查找了“(预激综合征)”一词。它涵盖了1973年1月1日至2022年12月31日期间发表的文章。2022年接受并于2023年在PubMed上发表的文章纳入本研究。总共138篇文章被纳入我们的分析。在这些文章中,29篇(21.01%)由女性撰写,而109篇(78.99%)由男性撰写。总之,本研究揭示了女性在心律失常研究领域担任第一作者角色的趋势不断上升。然而,很明显,性别差距仍然很大,男性研究人员仍然多于女性研究人员。
