Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the gender composition of nontraditional pathology recognition award recipients.

Methods: Cross-sectional analysis of American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) Top Five 40 Under Forty and The Pathologist Power List award recipients' gender. Gender was independently analyzed by 2 authors using pronouns. Two analyses were performed: difference in gender parity and difference in gender equity for award recipients.

Results: From 2014 through 2022, 618 total awards were conferred. Significantly more men than women received an award overall (57.1% vs 42.9%; P < .001). Compared with population benchmarks, awards conferred to US-based nontrainee pathology physicians (men 56.2%, women 43.8%; P = .091) and US-based pathology physician trainees (men 60.5%, women 39.5%; P = .15) are equitable. Conversely, gender inequities exist among awards conferred to US-based nonphysician laboratory professionals (men 51.7%, women 48.3%; P < .001).

Conclusion: The Pathologist Power List and Top Five ASCP 40 Under Forty awards have not completely achieved gender parity, and gender inequities remain among subgroups.

“非传统”病理学奖中性别平等与平等的评估。

目的:本研究的目的是评估非传统病理认可奖获得者的性别构成。方法:横断面分析美国临床病理学会(ASCP) 40岁以下前5名和病理学家权力榜获奖者的性别。性别由两位作者使用代词独立分析。进行了两项分析:性别平等的差异和性别平等的差异。结果:从2014年到2022年，共授予618个奖项。总体而言，获得奖项的男性明显多于女性(57.1% vs 42.9%);P结论:病理学家权力榜和ASCP 40位40岁以下Top 5奖项并没有完全实现性别平等，分组之间仍然存在性别不平等。
