摘要
导言:泌尿外科会议中的性别平等对于促进该领域的多样性和包容性至关重要。本研究旨在评估西班牙泌尿外科医生的代表性和地区差异,并评估其与泌尿外科界人口构成的一致性:我们回顾了 2012 年 1 月至 2022 年 12 月间由 AEU 组织的所有泌尿外科会议,包括会议信息和教师详情。此外,我们还分析了发言人在 17 个不同地区的地理分布情况。我们还从Organización Médica Colegial de España (OMC)和隶属于AEU的泌尿科医生那里获得了按性别和年份分列的性别人口统计数据:研究分析了2012年至2022年期间举行的52次AEU大会,共有3407人发言,发现95.25%的发言者来自西班牙,89.6%的发言者为男性。多年来,女性发言人的比例呈上升趋势,每年增加1.1%,略低于西班牙泌尿科女医生人数每年1.8%的增幅。研究显示,在功能、移植和肿瘤等特定子领域的会议上,女性代表的比例较高,这表明这些领域的工作重点是女性。从地域上看,马德里、加泰罗尼亚和安达卢西亚的女性比例最高:尽管西班牙泌尿外科会议中女性泌尿科医生的参与率呈上升趋势,但这并不能准确反映近年来进入泌尿外科行业的女性人数的增长比例。这项研究强调了持续努力确保泌尿外科论坛的多元化和均衡代表性的重要性。
Gender trends at the annual Spanish Urologic Association (AEU) meeting: A review of AEU programmes over a 10-year period (2012–2022)
Introduction
Gender equity in urological meetings is pivotal for fostering diversity and inclusivity in the field. This study aims to evaluate the representation of Spanish urologist and regional disparities, and to assess its alignment with the demographic composition of the urological community.
Materials and methods
All urology meetings organized by the AEU between January 2012 and December 2022 were reviewed, including meeting information and details of the faculty. Additionally, we analysed geographic distribution of speakers across 17 different regions. Gender demographics were obtained disaggregating data by sex and year from the Organización Médica Colegial de España (OMC) and from those urologists affiliated to the AEU.
Results
Analysing 52 AEU congresses held from 2012 to 2022, encompassing 3,407 speakers, the study found that 95.25% of speakers were from Spain and 89.6% were male speakers. Over the years, there was a positive trend in female speaker representation, increasing by 1.1% annually, slightly lagging the 1.8% annual rise in the number of female urologists in Spain. In specific subfields like functional, transplantation, and oncology sessions, the study revealed a higher representation of women, indicating focused efforts in these areas. Geographically, Madrid, Catalonia and Andalusia exhibited the highest representation.
Conclusions
Although there was a positive trend towards an increased participation of female urologists in Spanish urological meetings, it fails to accurately reflect the proportional increase in the number of women entering the urology profession in recent years. This study underscores the importance of ongoing efforts to ensure diverse and balanced representation in urological forum.
