On World Heart Day 2022, the Mexican Society of Cardiology, the Inter-American Society of Cardiology, and the World Heart Federation collaborated on a public call to action regarding the increased risk of adverse cardiovascular health outcomes in transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals. The aim of this article is to unpack the numerous factors that contribute to this, such as the social stigma faced by members of the TGD community, their reduced access to clinical care, and the scarcity of research regarding the unique needs of their community, which makes it difficult for clinicians to provide individualized medical care. Decreasing the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events among TGD individuals requires interventions such as educational reform in the medical community, an increase in inclusive research studies, and broader social initiatives intended to reduce the stigma faced by TGD individuals.
在2022年世界心脏日，墨西哥心脏病学会、美洲心脏病学会和世界心脏联盟合作发起了一项关于跨性别和性别多样化（TGD）个体心血管健康不良后果风险增加的公开行动呼吁。本文旨在剖析导致这种情况的诸多因素，比如TGD群体成员所面临的社会耻辱感、他们获得临床护理的机会减少，以及针对该群体独特需求的研究匮乏，这使得临床医生难以提供个性化医疗护理。降低TGD个体心血管不良事件的发生率需要采取一些干预措施，如医学界的教育改革、增加包容性研究、以及开展更广泛的社会倡议以减少TGD个体所面临的耻辱感。
