Evidence suggests there are clinically significant sex and gender differences across a broad range of diseases but these often aren't factored into research and treatment.

Australia's largest health and medical research funding body has recommended sex, gender, variations of sex characteristics and sexual orientation be routinely considered in health and medical research.

What's next?

Experts say the new recommendations need to be incorporated into research funding applications to ensure research is more inclusive and equitable.

When Cheryl Carcel was in medical school, little attention was paid to the role that sex and gender can play in the detection and treatment of many major diseases.

"We weren't taught that men and women might present differently or have different outcomes."

But Dr Carcel, a neurologist and head of the Brain Health Program at The George Institute for Global Health, said in her own field — and many other areas of medicine — such differences were stark.

Last year, she co-authored a study investigating the medical care that people with stroke receive before arriving at hospital in NSW , and found women were less likely to have their stroke recognised compared to men.

"[Women] were thought to be having a migraine, high blood pressure, or some type of headache or nausea," she said.

"And we think one of the reasons is because some of the symptoms of women are not recognised as being stroke."

Stroke isn't unique in this regard: women are less likely to be diagnosed and appropriately treated if they suffer a serious heart attack , less likely to have chronic pain acknowledged and treated , and more likely to be misdiagnosed or discharged during a serious medical event .

Bronwyn Graham, director of the Centre for Sex and Gender Equity in Health and Medicine, said part of the reason was because women had been under-represented in medical research for decades.

"Our models of how diseases emerge in humans, the ways they look and the ways they can be treated, are based on the male body, and those findings don't always translate," said Professor Graham.

"The consequence is that we see poorer health outcomes and treatments that are not evidence-based for certain sex and gender groups."

Major funding body calls for attention on sex and gender

In early August, the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) released a statement encouraging sex, gender, variations of sex characteristics and sexual orientation to be routinely considered in health and medical research.

The NHMRC is the largest public funder of health and medical research in Australia and distributes hundreds of millions of dollars in research grants every year, including through the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF).

"What it means in practice is that researchers should consider these variables at all stages of the research process," said Professor Graham, who is also a professor of psychology at the University of New South Wales.

"So that's from the very start (what questions should we be asking?)  through to the conduct of the study (do we have equal representation of sexes and genders?) to how data are analysed and reported … and then how things get translated into healthcare practices."

A growing body of evidence suggests there are clinically significant sex and gender differences across a broad range of diseases , from susceptibility and screening to risk factors, treatment and prognosis.

The aim of the statement, according to the NHMRC, is to improve health outcomes and ensure medical research produces evidence that is relevant to all people.

It encourages researchers to increase the representation and involvement of historically under-represented groups, including women, trans and non-binary people, people with variations of sex characteristics (intersex) and diverse sexual orientations.

A recent study showed while women were over-represented in research perceived to 'female-patient' dominated, they were they were significantly under-represented in other areas, such as cardiology.

Meanwhile, intersex and non-binary people were found to be severely under-represented across all areas of medical research.

"Women are often the people who are missing out here — women, intersex, trans and non-binary folk," Professor Graham said.

"We see in practice, for example, that women are 50 per cent more likely to have adverse reactions to drugs and vaccines than men; that pain medications don't work as effectively in women as they do in men; and that women are more likely to develop chronic pain conditions and addictions to pain medication."

In Australia, research shows women disproportionately experience delayed diagnosis, overprescribing, and a failure to have their symptoms properly investigated .

Professor Graham said that failing to consider biological and physical characteristics in research, as well as gender roles and behaviours, also meant that men miss out.

"If we're looking at things in a sex- and gender-blind fashion, we're also not thinking about what are the unique things about men that we need to pay attention to that might actually impact the prognosis of an illness … and also response to treatment."

Australia lags behind on sex and gender equity

Last year, a study co-authored by Dr Carcel found just 30 per cent of health and medical research publications in Australia analysed their findings by sex and/or gender.

"The NHMRC statement is groundbreaking for Australia," she said.

"It's not meant to increase the pool of researchers who focus on these variables, but is for all researchers applying for NHMRC and MRFF grants."

Historically, the tendency to conduct scientific research on men and generalise the findings, including to women, has been driven largely by concerns over potential harm to the female reproductive system.

Martha Hickey, a professor of obstetrics and gynaecology at the University of Melbourne, said the exclusion of women was also a product of the misguided belief that female hormonal fluctuations may affect the reliability of study results.

"There were a number of false assumptions made at different levels," said Professor Hickey, an NHMRC Leadership Fellow.

"I think all of us have been surprised by how far down this goes. It wasn't just about [research on] people, it was also animals, and even cell-based research." 

Professor Hickey, who contributed to the development of the new NHMRC statement, said when it came to recognising sex and gender differences, Australia lagged behind Europe and North America.

"The Americans have been doing this for more than 20 years, by which I mean stating that there needs to be equal numbers of males and females and other important variable groups taken into consideration," she said.

"I think we've all learnt that research is better if it's inclusive, and it's more likely to be taken up."

Research grants should reflect new recommendations, experts say

While Professor Graham described the statement as "an incredibly positive step", she expressed concern that the new recommendations were not yet "written into policy".

"There is nowhere in the grant application process where researchers are required to indicate how they have taken sex, gender, variations of sex characteristics and sexual orientation into account."

Traditionally, researchers have worked with male lab animals and primarily used men in clinical trials. ( Getty Images: SolStock )

In some circumstances, having equal gender representation or analysing data by sex may not be necessary, but she said researchers should still have clear reasoning as to why.

"They should still need to justify the sample: how is it actually representative? Is the research being conducted in the population that stands to benefit from this research?"

Dr Carcel agreed, and said the statement should be followed up with an implementation and evaluation plan requiring sex and gender to be addressed in grant applications where appropriate.

A spokesperson for the NHMRC said researchers and their institutions were being "encouraged to reflect on the statement and start doing what they can now", but no formal requirement was in place.

"The next phase of work will include consideration of how to incorporate the statement in granting processes," the spokesperson said.

Improving knowledge and healthcare requires sector-wide change

In addition to funding bodies, Dr Carcel stressed that universities, medical research institutes, and health and medical journals had a significant role to play in improving sex and gender equity.

"[Journal editors] act as gatekeepers of bad science, and bad science is what we get if we don't include sex and gender into our research."

Professor Graham agreed: "The places in which we practise research have a huge amount of control over our code of conduct. If [universities and medical research institutes] implement their own policies, that is a further support to ensure things like the NHMRC statement can gain momentum."

In 2023, the NHMRC introduced measures to ensure an equal number of men and women were awarded senior investigator grants , which Professor Hickey said would also help to "change the nature of research".

She added that there had been a major "feminisation" of the medical workforce and that awareness of sex and gender differences was "much more apparent" than in the past, but that improvements in knowledge wouldn't solve the problem alone.

"The bias isn't only around clinicians not understanding how women may present, it also appears to be how doctors and other health personnel respond to them," she said.

In a recent survey of almost 3,000 Australian women, two in three reported health care-related bias and discrimination , with many women feeling dismissed and disbelieved.

"We've got a lot to learn," Professor Hickey said.

Russia Among Global Top Ten Improvers for Progress Made in Health and Education, says World Bank Report

MOSCOW, September, 16, 2020 – Russia is among the top ten countries globally for improvements to human capital development over the last decade, according to the latest update of the World Bank’s Human Capital Index (HCI).

The 2020 Human Capital Index includes health and education data for 174 countries covering 98 percent of the world’s population up to March 2020.

Russia's improvements were largely in health, reflected in better child and adult survival rates and reduced stunting. Across the Europe and Central Asia region, Russia, along with Azerbaijan, Albania, Montenegro, and Poland, also made the largest gains in increasing expected years of schooling - mainly due to improvements in secondary school and pre-primary enrollments. The report also shows that over the last 10 years Russia has seen a reduction in adult mortality rates. However, absolute values of this indicator remain high in the country with this progress now at risk due to the global Covid-19 pandemic.

“ Human capital contributes greatly to improving of economic growth in every country. Investments in knowledge and health that people accumulate during their lives are of paramount concern to governments around the world. Russia is among the top improvers globally in the Index. However, challenges persist and much needs to be done to improve the absolute values of Index indicators, ” said Renaud Seligmann, the World Bank Country Director in Russia.

The HCI, first launched in 2018, looks at a child’s trajectory, from birth to age 18, on such critical metrics as child survival (birth to age 5); expected years of primary and secondary education adjusted for quality; child stunting; and adult survival rates. HCI 2020, based on data up to March of this year, provides a crucial pre-pandemic baseline that can help inform health and education policies and investments for the post-pandemic recovery.

Of the 48 countries in Europe and Central Asia included in the 2020 Human Capital Index (HCI), 33 are among the upper-third in the world, and almost all are in the top half. However, there are significant variations within the region.

In Russia, a child born today can expect to achieve 68 percent of the productivity of a fully educated adult in optimal health. It is at the average level for Europe and Central Asia countries and the third result globally among the countries of the same income group. There is a stark contrast between education and health subscales in Russia. While the education outcomes of the country are high and outperform many high-income peers, its health outcomes are below the global average.

Rural and Minority Health Research Center marks 25 years with fifth funding cycle award

August 21, 2024  | Erin Bluvas,  [email protected]

Scientists at the Rural and Minority Health Research Center will celebrate their 25-year anniversary this year, with eyes set on approaching  their 30 th . The center has recently secured an additional $2.8 million in funding from the Health Services Resources & Services Administration’s Federal Office of Rural Health Policy – for the fifth consecutive cycle.

With steady guidance from the first three directors - Mike Samuels, Jan Probst (who led the center for the longest tenure of 15 years) and Jan Eberth, co-directors Elizabeth Crouch and Peiyin Hung are holding the reins with their eyes set on the 30th. Originally named the South Carolina Rural Research Center, the center has grown to include over thirty faculty/staff and affiliates and has continually expanded its services to respond to the existing and emerging concerns faced by rural and minority residents of the state. Since 2000, the center has completed over 80 research projects, produced 152 policy briefs, and published 277 original scientific publications and literature reviews examining issues of importance to rural health broadly and rural minority groups specifically.

“Our mission remains on incorporating social determinants of health into rural health policy research, with the aim to enhancing access, quality and outcomes for rural Americans,” says Crouch, an associate professor in the Department of Health Services Policy and Management (HSPM). “During this new funding cycle, we will advance our established health policy work on the intersection of race and place by extending to Medicaid policy and services across urban and rural communities in the United States.”

Across these leaders and fundings cycles, the center has worked to develop methods and conduct research to better understand the health status, health care needs, and health services utilization of rural and minority populations. They also examine the effectiveness and amenability of rural health policies in improving health and removing barriers to care for these groups, especially those living in low-income households.

Our mission remains on incorporating social determinants of health into rural health policy research, with the aim to enhancing access, quality and outcomes for rural Americans.

While this work spans various areas and methods, some of their projects include identifying geographic and racial disparities in mental health outcomes among postpartum women , combatting HIV and STIs in rural communities , investigating barriers to maternal health care access due to poverty and/or structural racism , and assessing whether telehealth adequately supports rural and minority pregnant women . Throughout these studies, they collaborate with researchers, public health practitioners and policymakers across the state. 

“In this new phase, we are also expanding our external advisory committee,” says Hung, a HSPM associate professor. “This expansion aims to gather diverse inputs from rural health stakeholders, including national rural health policymakers, state rural health agencies, rural health care administrators, professional associations, community organizations, and rural patient advocates to guide our research priorities, methodology design, and dissemination of research findings. This continued support fuels our mission to advance rural health equity and research.”

UQ granted $6 million for two new Centres of Research Excellence

University of Queensland researchers have received two $3 million grants from the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) to accelerate knowledge and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, and to improve gynaecological cancer treatment.

The funding will support collaborative research aimed at addressing pressing health challenges and improving patient outcomes.  

Innovation in approaching Alzheimer's disease

A $3 million NHMRC grant will fund a new Centre of Research Excellence (CRE) in Mechanisms in Neurodegeneration – Alzheimer’s Disease (MIND-AD).

Led by Professor Jürgen Götz from UQ’s Queensland Brain Institute , the new centre is the first dedicated CRE to lead basic science research to investigate the underlying causes of neurodegenerative diseases.

“Using a multidisciplinary approach, we are aiming for discoveries that leapfrog us towards new disease-halting or reversing treatments, which have remained elusive for more than a century,” Professor Götz said.

“Alzheimer’s disease drug research has been largely focused on strategies to remove toxic amyloid-β and Tau aggregates from the brain, but the effectiveness of these drugs is yet to be determined.

“A growing body of evidence supports the multifactorial nature of Alzheimer’s disease, so the MIND-AD Centre of Research Excellence will take a more holistic approach.”

Professor Götz said the centre will look at the relationship between protein aggregation and misfolding and mitochondrial functions and exploit those links to engineer next-generation combination therapies.

“Our program will span molecular, cellular and brain-wide research, drug targeting and delivery as well as multiscale mathematical models,” he said.

“We will also nurture industry partnerships and support translation and commercialisation opportunities where appropriate.”

Improving gynaecological cancer treatments 

A $3 million NHMRC grant will establish a new Centre of Research Excellence to Improve the Quality of Survival in Gynaecological Cancer Patients (ALIVE WELL).

Professor Andreas Obermair from UQ’s Centre for Clinical Research (UQCCR) will lead a team across 7 projects investigating the factors that impact the wellbeing of women treated for gynaecological cancers.

“The current treatment for most gynaecological cancers takes a brutal toll on patients,” Professor Obermair said.

“Some of the biggest concerns for these women include issues with fertility, lymphoedema or swelling caused by a lymphatic system blockage, and their general recovery from treatment.

“The new centre will focus on priority areas aiming to enable fertility after endometrial cancer, reducing lymphoedema and optimising cancer recovery.”

The centre builds on 6 clinical trials the team is currently running involving more than 2500 women with gynaecological cancer from around the world.

Three new clinical trials will commence under this CRE.

UQCCR researcher Dr Eva Baxter said each trial aims to address a different aspect of improving gynaecological cancer treatment and follow-up, and monitoring how this impacts women’s lives.

“We will look at things including pregnancy rates and cancer recurrence after treatment, healthy habits and exercise interventions for patients during and after treatment, and barriers to implementing new treatment pathways in clinical practice,” Dr Baxter said.

“Overall, our aim is to improve quality of life, health and function during and after gynaecological cancer treatment, so women can get back to living their best lives.”

Matthew’s story: The gift of research and an easier road

Matthew started life as a happy ‘outback boy’, living 320km inland from Port Hedland in Western Australia surrounded by red dirt. He was home schooled by radio school until the age of 12, as the drive from his front gate to his home took three and a half hours.  

“If you put a city kid in my homestead they wouldn’t survive,” he recalls fondly. 

At 13 years old, he went to a boarding school in Perth, which was almost a six-hour flight from home. Matthew recalls how different it was to see grass and a main street for the very first time.  

He adapted to city life, surrounded by kids for the first time, and became a keen sportsperson and healthy, active young man. After school, he stayed in Perth to further his education and began studying Microbiology at university.  

Facing a cancer diagnosis  

In the middle of a university semester, Matthew collapsed on a sports field and his life completely changed. He hadn’t been feeling too well, but the last thing he expected was a stomach cancer diagnosis.  

Matthew said it took him a while to accept his diagnosis, and he struggled for a long time with the question of ‘Why me?’.  

He faced this nightmare at just 23 years of age.  

Matthew endured nine months of chemotherapy . He recalls going “to the wars and back” and that the cancer diagnosis and treatment were the “hardest time for me”.   

It was the 1980s, a time when treatments were comparatively unsophisticated.

Getting through the challenges of treatment  

He had difficulty adjusting to the treatments, he was “up and down like a yo-yo” for the first six months and lost a huge amount of weight. Luckily, his university was supportive and allowed him to take time off, but otherwise Matthew found there was a lack of support available and felt isolated.  

“Chemotherapy was rough. In the early days of having cancer no-one really explained the side effects. Doctors couldn’t explain why you lose your hair or why you lose your teeth,” Matthew remembers. 

He began experiencing depression as a result of the cancer and treatment. Unfortunately, awareness surrounding mental health was particularly poor, and he did not receive appropriate support.  

Luckily Matthew has now been cancer free for over 30 years. He finished his studies and began working as a Forensic Specialist for the Australian Federal Police. In this role he worked across the country, as well as in Istanbul, Kuwait and London. 

In 1991 he was posted in Albury for a case. Upon spending time with the ‘fantastic community’ Matthew was inspired to retire to Albury in 2004.  

Despite having no family in Albury, Matthew has been embraced by the community and has hundreds of ‘mothers and fathers’, who ‘keep an eye’ on him. He believes he ‘couldn’t ask for anything better’ then living in Albury. 

Helping others with his experience  

In retirement Matthew is busier than ever between helping homeless people, being the Verger of St Matthew’s, and driving patients to Albury’s cancer centre. He says he has been shaped this way by his own difficult cancer experience, and those of his 37 friends who have also been directly affected.  

In 2007, he worked with his community to raise cancer awareness among young people by organising a Relay For Life team. That first year, there were 35 St Matthew’s Angels; since they have participated every year and grown to 150-strong. 

“The young ones are our future. They have to continue our work,” Matthew believes. 

Matthew is passionate about supporting those affected by cancer and is a strong advocate for research. “Research is very important. I had to go through cancer the old school way. Research makes it easier for people,” he says. 

Leaving a legacy that continues to help others  

Driven by his belief in the importance of research, Matthew has chosen to leave a generous gift in his will of 80% of his estate to Cancer Council NSW.  

He sees supporting Cancer Council as supporting the community, saying it’s “a good cause and something I care for.”   

As he says, “if you haven’t had cancer, someone in your life has or will.”  

Matthew celebrates the advances in treatment and support services made since his own cancer experience but knows more improvement is needed.  

“We need research to prevent, and to help and make it easier for those who get cancer… to let people live longer. Hopefully people in the future won’t have to go through the hell we did”, says Matthew.  

Leaving a gift in will means a world of difference to researchers working towards a cancer free future.

African women researchers are transforming the continent while functioning as community organizers and entrepreneurs. Yet African women experience significant barriers in the continent’s research and academic landscape. 

In Nairobi, Dr. Nzambi Matee created a fix for plastic waste using eco-friendly paving blocks. In Kenya, Veronica Okello researches sustainable processes for removing heavy metals from the environment. In Nigeria, Dr. Francisca Okeke studies the effects of solar activity in the ionosphere on earth's magnetic field to support climate solutions and Dr. Amina Ahmed El-Imam heads research teams working on renewable fuel. 

These are some recent scientific contributions from African women. Before them, the late biologist Dr. Wangari Maathai, who bagged a Nobel Prize for climate activism, paved the way. 

A  paper by the United States National Institutes  of Health states that in Guinea, a mere 6 percent of researchers are women. African institutions have poor systems for examining and ensuring the representation of women and lack strategies for supporting women’s work-life balance. In addition, existing employment processes advantage men. Compared to women in other regions, cultural and gender norms and unequal education further limit African women who manage a greater percentage of domestic duties.

Without African women, research excludes issues relevant to women worldwide and causes bias in research conclusions. Female researchers can provide unique perspectives and novel problem-solving methods, resulting in more complete and inventive answers. Climate change, which disproportionately affects Africa, further accentuates the disparity experienced by African women scientists, who are more active than men in the agricultural, health, and environmental sectors—areas that are heavily impacted by climate change.   

In her foreword to “Women Researching in Africa: The Impact of Gender,” Dr. Tirsit Woldeyohanes writes of her childhood in Ethiopia: “Females who strive to be independent and go outdoors are derided and called critical and discouraging names. These hurdles from society have the power to compromise girls’ ability to learn and achieve higher education.” 

Male researchers in Africa have greater representation, produce more research, publish more papers, and achieve positions of greater seniority, securing senior roles faster than women researchers. 

Men are also better paid. A 2020 World Economic Forum report found that sub-Saharan African women earned 68 percent of what their male counterparts earned. UN Women reported women earn 21 percent less than men in East and South Africa. There is reportedly a pay gap for women of up to 77 percent in Nigeria. 

Without up-to-date scientific publications and proficiency in current techniques and technologies, African women researchers will lag behind their peers in wealthier nations.

Lack of financing

The UN maintains that resolving gender gaps is essential to achieving thriving, sustainable societies. To achieve progress in gender equality, we must understand why an inadequate number of female researchers in Africa exists.

The journal  Nature  points to the lack of financing as particularly relevant in explaining why African women scientists face more challenges in pursuing careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) than women in high-income nations. At the heart of this disparity is inadequate government funding, which Fadhel Kaboub, president of the Global Institute for Sustainable Prosperity, traces to colonialism’s continuing suppression of African economies.

African countries are impoverished by external debt. They are a primary source of low-priced, raw materials for wealthier nations yet must consume the expensive industrialized results from those nations. 

These nations are destinations for discarded technologies and products, exacerbating issues of environmental degradation. Against this backdrop, African women must overcome tremendous limitations to sustain research careers, but there is hope.

One example of hope can be found in Nigeria, Africa’s most populous nation. In 2012, Nigeria implemented a Science, Technology, and Innovation (STI) policy with the mainstreaming, increase, and incentivization of women in STI as an objective. Expanding mentorship opportunities was a strategy in the policy. 

“In some parts of the Eastern region [of Nigeria], they don’t believe that a woman can take decisions, talk less of being able to help the nation. Thankfully, my father was a teacher, and his orientation helped a lot… I am grateful for the opportunity to mentor a lot of female scientists,” notes Dr. Okeke, in a  newspaper article .

Nigeria must fully execute its plan to increase the number of women scientists. More African countries must follow, harnessing networking and career-building opportunities, combating sociocultural barriers, and providing funding support. 

The role of the youth

The future of Africa – its youth – hangs in the balance. The  2024 Summit of the Future  is a timely event. The UN states that “Young people are the driving force behind innovation, progress, and positive change in our world. Their energy, creativity, and fresh perspectives are essential for shaping a sustainable and inclusive future for all.” 

Early Career Researcher (ECR) programmes that target and mentor youth are necessary for Africa’s nearly 600 million women and girls.

In the research ecosystem, academic publishers can also help nurture African women researchers’ careers by building ECR programmes for women and girls that leverage Open Access (OA) policies to expand the availability of scholarly materials and by providing training. OA publications can be read gratis, are referenced more frequently, and facilitate cross-border collaboration among scholars. 

Without up-to-date scientific publications and proficiency in current techniques and technologies, African women researchers will lag behind their peers in wealthier nations. 

Publishers can help link academic institutions to funders to help researchers cover financial gaps. Further, publishers can nurture networking among institutions on the continent, encouraging collaborations between institutions to ensure research cohesion. This will deepen clarity about continent-wide issues like climate change.

In sum, tackling gender disparity in African research requires holistic strategies that include addressing national debt and cultural biases, provision for OA, and targeted measures to support girls and women ECRs.
