Abstrakt: | Background: Several initiatives have urged the inclusion of sex in data analysis, but few studies have examined the prevalence of sex-specific reporting in musculoskeletal research. This study aims at determining the presence of sex-specific analyses reported in research at American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meetings. Methods: Abstracts listed in the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons Annual Meeting programs from 2006 to 2013 were retrospectively reviewed for the presence of research reporting the results of a sex-specific analysis. Results: The number of abstracts reporting a sex-specific analysis increased from 48 (2006) to 117 (2013) but accounts for 5.4% of research presented from 2006 to 2013. Hip and knee arthroplasty literature accounted for 37% of included abstracts. Conclusions: The reporting of sex-specific analyses has improved over time but accounts for 5.4% of research presented at annual meetings from 2006 to 2013. The inclusion of sex-specific analyses should be required for future research publications to better understand the influence of sex in musculoskeletal medicine. |
