FIGURE 3. Temporal Trends in Gender of Lead, Senior, or Corresponding Authors in HF RCTs (n = 403) Published in High Impact Journals Between 2000 and 2019.

FIGURE 3

Temporal trends in the gender distribution of lead, senior, and corresponding authors were analyzed using the Jonckheere-Terpstra proportion trend test (2-tailed testing, α = 0.05). The sample included 403 RCTs, with 403 authors in each position. Women represented 15.6%, 12.9%, and 11.4% of the lead, senior, and corresponding authors, respectively, with no change in temporal trends (lead author, p = 0.061; senior author, p = 0.327; corresponding author; p = 0.624).
