A simple difference in the genetic code can lead to major differences in heart disease.

While sex influences the mechanisms behind how cardiovascular disease develops, gender plays a role in how health care providers recognize and manage it.

Cardiovascular disease physically looks different for women and men, specifically in the plaque buildup on artery walls.

Too often, women with symptoms of cardiovascular disease are sent away from doctor's offices because of gender biases that "women don't get heart disease" The Biden administration's recent executive order to advance women's health research is paving the way for research to go beyond just understanding what causes sex differences in cardiovascular disease.

Using sex-specific cutoffs for blood tests that measure heart damage can improve accuracy.
