Purpose Of Review: Describe disparities in diagnosis and management between men and women with advanced heart failure (HF). Our goal is to identify barriers and suggest solutions.
Recent Findings: Women with advanced HF are less likely to undergo diagnostic testing and procedures (i.e., revascularization, implantable cardioverter defibrillators, cardiac resynchronization therapy, mechanical circulatory support, and orthotopic heart transplantation). Disparities related to gender create less favorable outcomes for women with advanced HF. The issues arise from access to care, paucity of knowledge, enrollment in clinical trials, and eligibility for advanced therapies. In this review, we propose a call to action to level the playing field in order to improve survival in women with advanced HF.

Previous research has highlighted the benefits followers gain from their leaders' initiating structure and consideration. Adopting a leader-centric perspective, we propose that leaders' gender influences the impact of these behaviors for leaders themselves. Drawing from conservation of resources and gender role theories, we explain why gender-role-inconsistent leader behaviors (behaviors that go against gender stereotypes, such as initiating structure for women and consideration for men) is detrimental, while engaging in gender-role-consistent leader behaviors (such as initiating structure for men and consideration for women) is beneficial.

Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) is a rare condition that frequently goes undiagnosed. Still, it is becoming an increasingly recognized cause of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), predominantly in middle-aged women with few or no cardiovascular risk factors. We present a case of a 53-year-old female with traditional cardiovascular risk factors, who presented with typical anginal symptoms and was diagnosed with SCAD in the mid to distal left anterior descending artery (LAD).
