Abstract
Cardiovascular disease continues to be the leading cause of death among women. Certain cardiovascular risk factors or diseases are novel and unique to or more common in women. Differences in gene expression from the sex chromosomes, which may be further modified by sex differences in hormones, often have differential impact on prevalence and presentation of cardiovascular diseases. However, quality of knowledge related to women's health was lacking due to the exclusion of women in research. Hence, it is high time to encourage research to fill gaps in medical knowledge about women. Having recognized the need to have sustainable, high-quality, applied research on cardiovascular diseases among women, WINCARS (Women In Cardiology And Related Sciences) Association has started to create a common platform for clinicians and researchers to discuss about women-related heart diseases.
