Description
Christine Kremer and co-authors present a 2026 conference study on sex gaps among patients with a narrowed neck artery that has caused symptoms. Past work hints women get referred and treated less, but detail on narrowing grade and pre-surgery events was scarce. The team pooled three patient groups.
More than nine hundred patients being weighed for surgery or stenting were studied, and about a third were women. Women were referred from other hospitals less often than men, a gap that held after checks. Women also got the fix less often, though that gap faded once narrowing grade was weighed. Women more often had mid-grade narrowing and smaller artery widths. Pre-surgery event risk, though, matched between sexes.
