Article Synopsis
- Despite a growing number of female medical graduates, women remain significantly underrepresented in academic medicine, with factors like gender bias and unsupportive environments contributing to this issue.
- The study examined scholarly productivity and representation of female gastroenterologists, finding that women had lower h-indices at the Assistant Professor and Chair levels compared to men, though no difference was noted at Associate Professor and Professor ranks.
- Findings suggest that while women may have lower academic productivity metrics, their perceived leadership skills could be aiding their advancement to higher academic positions like Chair, reflecting patterns seen in other medical fields.

Objective: To evaluate the contribution of the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database to our understanding of gynecologic pathology. Specifically, to test and compare whether the etiology/pathogenesis of ovarian endometrioid cancer is as dependent upon the reproductive environment as uterine endometrial carcinoma.
