Clinical algorithms that are used to guide medical decision-making often include sex as a variable. However, binary considerations of sex and/or gender might introduce bias due to potentially inaccurate assumptions about sex and gender-specific physiology, hormones and exposures. An equity-focused approach to sex and gender is essential when using clinical algorithms to ensure health equity across populations.

在临床算法中将性别作为二元变量的考虑


用于指导医疗决策的临床算法通常将性别作为变量。然而，由于对性别和性别特异性生理学、激素和暴露的假设可能不准确，对性别和/或性别的二元考虑可能会引入偏倚。在使用临床算法确保人群之间的健康公平时，以公平为重点的性和性别方法至关重要。
