Still Blurred: Sex and Gender Based Medicine Approach

Abstract




Sex and gender based medicine is a relatively new area of interest.
Studies concerning this topic have started to emerge quite recently, only since
the beginning of the 2000’s.  It has
become popular both in the United States and Europe and has been
institutionalized in many universities. 
Sex and gender based medicine is an approach that attempts to show how
diseases and other medical conditions differ between men and women in terms of
epidemiology, prognosis, prevention, treatment and outcomes: all considerations
which have been ignored or overlooked by traditional medical approaches for a
long time.  Research has clearly put
forward how the lack of this perspective can be detrimental to the health of
women in particular.  Cardiology is one
of the leading specialties through which this approach is epitomized.  This article aims to introduce this distinct
area in medicine to Turkish academia and attempts to review the basic
contributions of sex and gender based approach to medicine and public health.
The article also seeks to underline differences between this approach and
personalized medicine and provide suggestions about research prospects.

Hâlâ Göremediklerimiz: Cinsiyet ve Toplumsal Cinsiyet Temelli Tıp Yaklaşımı

Year 2019, Volume: 17 Issue: 3, 350 - 361, 29.12.2019

Abstract



Cinsiyet ve toplumsal cinsiyet
temelli tıp, 2000’li yılların başından itibaren üzerinde çalışılmaya başlayan
görece yeni bir alandır. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ve kıta Avrupası’ndan
birçok ülkede ilgi görmüş, birçok üniversitede kurumsallaşmıştır. Cinsiyet ve
toplumsal cinsiyet temelli tıp yaklaşımı geleneksel tıbbın uzun bir zamandır
gör(e)mediği bir konuya, hastalıkların ve diğer tıbbi durumların epidemiyoloji,
prognoz, koruma, tedavi ve sonuçlar açısından kadına ve erkeğe göre nasıl
farklılaşabildiğini göstermeye çalışır. 
Araştırmalar, bu perspektifin ihmal edilmesinin özellikle kadınların
sağlığı açısından ne kadar tehlikeli sonuçlarının olabileceğini açıkça ortaya
koymuştur.  Kardiyoloji, bu alanda en
fazla öne çıkmış uzmanlıklardan biridir. Bu makale tıbbın bu özellikli alanı
Türkiye akademyasına tanıtmak ve cinsiyet ve toplumsal cinsiyet temelli tıp
yaklaşımın tıbba ve halk sağlığına yaptığı temel katkıları ele almayı
amaçlamaktadır. Makalede, kişiye özel tıp yaklaşımının farklarının da altı
çizilecek ve yapılabilecek çalışmalarla ilgili birkaç öneri yer alacaktır.
