What people are saying
The overall tone indicates support for more inclusive and rigorous stroke research, with references to issues like the underrepresentation of women and those with aphasia, using words like 'need', 'better', and 'far from the end' to emphasize the ongoing effort needed to improve standards and practices in clinical trials.
Most discussions acknowledge the importance of improving research practices and highlight ongoing issues, indicating general support for the publication’s message.
Participants show curiosity about the topic, emphasizing the need for better inclusion and adherence to guidelines in stroke studies.
Comments reflect thoughtful reflection on research gaps, with mentions of specific challenges like exclusion of certain groups and calls for change.
Discussions suggest the content raises awareness about disparities in research, promoting the need for reforms that could influence future trials.
Abstract in brief
- Emerging evidence indicates that sex and gender might affect how individuals respond to exercise after a stroke, prompting the need for proper research standards.
- The SAGER guidelines, introduced in 2016, provide terminology and considerations for incorporating these factors in research design but their adoption in stroke exercise trials has not been thoroughly evaluated.
- A review of 245 studies showed that while the overall adherence to these guidelines remains low, there has been an increase in the use of proper sex and gender terminology since the guidelines were published, highlighting the need for better integration of these considerations in stroke research.
