GENDER issues: media news value?

[摘要] CV News Digest is a daily news briefing selected from thousands of media sources (including Wall Street Journal and New York Times). The mission of CV News Digest is to alert ACC members about cardiovascular-related information that their patients may read or hear in the media that day or week. Being a fellow of the ACC, one is almost daily informed about specific topics that have penetrated the news media. Since gender issues are receiving a lot of attention those days (it will be one of the major topics of the 2010 Fall Congress of our Society), I have searched for news that had gender as major subject. A time window of six months was chosen from December 2009 till June 2010. The gender-related issues show a broad spectrum varying from specific XX related issues (such as pregnancy and breast feeding) to vascular risk, prevention, symptoms, diagnostic procedures, acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, and bypass surgery. Below follows a literal summation of the found news items associated with gender.
