摘要
Sex- and gender-based differences need to be considered in evidence-based medical research as there are anatomical and physiological differences between males and females. Females are underrepresented in studies, with results from males often generalized to both sexes. The Sex and Gender Equity in Research (SAGER) guidelines were published in 2016 to address sex- and gender-bias in research. Correct understanding and appropriate use of the terms "sex" and "gender" are essential. These terms are discussed in an anatomical context and recommendations are made as to how the SAGER guidelines can guide the reporting of anatomical studies to minimize the risk of reporting bias.
