概括
运动科学研究中女性的代表性在过去30年里有所增加. 更多的女性作者和编辑与女性参与者的更大包容性有关,这表明在研究中实现性别平等是可以实现的.
科学领域:
- 运动科学和生理学研究.
背景情况:
- 从历史上看,在运动科学和生理学研究中,女性的代表性一直很低.
- 这限制了对女性对运动和治疗干预措施的反应的理解.
研究的目的:
- 分析30年来 (1991-2021) 运动科学期刊中女性作者,参与者和编辑委员会成员的代表性趋势.
- 调查女性在编辑和作者角色中的代表性与研究中女性参与者的纳入之间的联系.
主要方法:
- 在1991年和2021年出版的三个主要期刊 (应用生理学,医学和运动和运动科学杂志,英国体育医学杂志) 的972篇原创研究文章中,分析了编辑委员会成员,作者和参与者的性别分布.
- 统计分析以确定随时间的推移代表性的变化以及性别人口统计之间的相关性.
主要成果:
- 在1991年至2021年期间,女性参与者,作者和编辑委员会成员的百分比显著增加.
- 在2021年,使用较大的数据集的研究显示了类似的性别比例,而较小的研究则有较少的女性参与者.
- 在研究中,女性参与者的比例较高,在研究中,最后一个作者是女性,而不是男性.
- 在2021年发现,女性作者比例与女性参与研究的比例之间存在正相关性.
结论:
- 虽然运动科学研究中女性的代表性有所改善,但性别差异仍然存在.
- 女性在作者和编辑角色中的代表性增加与女性参与者的更大包容性有关.
- 通过缩小作者和编辑职位的性别差距,可以促进实现女性参与者的公平代表.

00:57Inclusive Fitness
36.1K
Most altruistic behavior—in which one animal helps another at a cost to themselves—occurs between relatives. Scientists think these altruistic behaviors evolved because they increase the inclusive fitness of the animal providing help.

01:43Sex-linked Disorders
102.3K
Like autosomes, sex chromosomes contain a variety of genes necessary for normal body function. When a mutation in one of these genes results in biological deficits, the disorder is considered sex-linked.

01:19X-linked Traits
55.0K
In most mammalian species, females have two X sex chromosomes and males have an X and Y. As a result, mutations on the X chromosome in females may be masked by the presence of a normal allele on the second X. In contrast, a mutation on the X chromosome in males more often causes observable biological defects, as there is no normal X to compensate. Trait variations arising from mutations on the X chromosome are called “X-linked”.

01:33Hormonal Regulation
33.3K
The renin-aldosterone system is an endocrine system which guides the renal absorption of water and electrolytes, thus managing blood pressure and osmoregulation. Activation of the system begins in the kidneys with a small cluster of cells adjacent to the afferent and efferent blood vessels of the renal corpuscle. As the nephrons are filtering blood, juxtaglomerular cells monitor blood pressure. If they detect a decrease in pressure, they release the hormone renin into the bloodstream.

01:33Pleiotropy
40.6K
Pleiotropy is the phenomenon in which a single gene impacts multiple, seemingly unrelated phenotypic traits. For example, defects in the SOX10 gene cause Waardenburg Syndrome Type 4, or WS4, which can cause defects in pigmentation, hearing impairments, and an absence of intestinal contractions necessary for elimination. This diversity of phenotypes results from the expression pattern of SOX10 in early embryonic and fetal development. SOX10 is found in neural crest cells that form melanocytes,...

01:49Hardy-Weinberg Principle
72.3K
Diploid organisms have two alleles of each gene, one from each parent, in their somatic cells. Therefore, each individual contributes two alleles to the gene pool of the population. The gene pool of a population is the sum of every allele of all genes within that population and has some degree of variation. Genetic variation is typically expressed as a relative frequency, which is the percentage of the total population that has a given allele, genotype or phenotype.
