Fig. 5. Mean diagnostic delay (DD) for women and men across phenotypes in the Commercial Claims and Encounters (CCAE) dataset.
Aggregated results show DD for women and men after performing Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests to calculate if the difference in distributions for women and men was statistically significant (based on threshold of p < 0.01). Visualizing the DD (i.e., the time from first relevant symptom to time of diagnosis) illustrates that, for all significant differences, women have to wait longer from first relevant symptom presentation to diagnosis.
