Abstract

Only recently has there been a push for increased funding in women's health, an area that has historically been neglected and underfunded. In this editorial, we argue that the higher risk of poor brain health faced by women can be usefully understood from a biopsychosocial perspective. In addition to biological differences, psychosocial stressors contribute to poorer health outcomes over time. Therefore, we advocate for a broad biopsychosocial approach to health, encompassing biological, psychological, and social factors, to better understand and promote women's brain health and to inform ambitious public health policy and research in this area.

这需要一个社会：对女性大脑健康的生物心理社会方法。

直到最近才开始推动增加对妇女保健的供资，这是一个历来被忽视和供资不足的领域。在这篇社论中，我们认为，女性面临的大脑健康状况不佳的风险较高，可以从生物心理社会的角度来有效地理解。除了生物差异外，随着时间的推移，社会心理压力因素也会导致健康状况变差。因此，我们提倡对健康采取广泛的生物心理社会方法，包括生物、心理和社会因素，以更好地了解和促进妇女的大脑健康，并为这一领域雄心勃勃的公共卫生政策和研究提供信息。
