Clinical trials: study design & enrolment. Are females

                                       What is normal?
“Over several centuries of medical and health
research, normal has, generally, been male”

  The norm of the male body persists in much of medical education. A study of 31 anatomy textbooks used
  between 1890 and 1989 found little difference in the proportions of anatomical drawings that were male
  (about 70%) compared with female Another more recent survey of 15 general medical and surgical
  textbooks found that 78% of depicted faces were male.

        “….women of childbearing age should not be included in the early phases
               of CTs, until sufficient data on drug toxicity is obtained…”
             In practice, this resulted in the exclusion of women from CTs
