Gender disparities within the field of cardiology are often described in the literature. However, it is not always clear how they came about, why they persist, or practically, what to do about them. Furthermore, the individuals usually tasked to address these disparities within an organization are usually the same individuals who are disproportionately affected by these disparities-women. In this review, the authors discuss the complex historical and systemic roots for the observed gender disparities within cardiology. They also highlight how men can not only be educated regarding experiences they may not face but also work toward fostering an improved working environment and eliminating of these gender disparities.
心脏病学领域的性别差异在文献中经常被提及。然而，它们是如何产生的、为何持续存在，或者实际上该如何应对，往往并不明确。此外，在一个组织中通常负责解决这些差异的个体，通常正是那些受这些差异影响 disproportionately 的个体——女性。在这篇综述中，作者讨论了心脏病学中观察到的性别差异背后复杂的历史和系统性根源。他们还强调了男性不仅可以了解他们可能未曾经历的经历，还可以努力营造一个更好的工作环境并消除这些性别差异。 （注：原文中“disproportionately”拼写有误，正确拼写为“disproportionately” ，意为“不成比例地” ）
