Table 3 shows the HAI responses stratified by gender for each study arm.
Through linkage with the Total Population Register it was possible to identify birth date and birth gender for all study subjects.
In comparison to the general population of the City of Dortmund we observed some systematic differences in age and gender for the study population.
This study aims to describe co- and multimorbidity as well as health care utilization based on episodes of care, taking into account age and gender for the study population of the first 17 participating general practices.
To avoid the influence of age and gender, for our study we selected age-matched Swedish men including non-diabetic subjects, newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients not taking medication and patients undergoing treatment, from the Stockholm Diabetes Prevention Program SDPPP) cohort.
Men showed significantly lower concordance for female-centered stimuli, resulting in a smaller though still significant gender difference for studies that presented female-centered stimuli.
Table 7 shows the usual gender difference for studies asking participants to report their subjective arousal at the end of each stimulus (post-stimulus), as indicated by the nonoverlapping 95% confidence intervals.
As compared with older patients, a higher female percentage in young patients was presented in several studies (36.1-48.7%)[ 4, 5, 7]; however most studies have shown that males were the predominant gender, except for studies in Taiwan (51.8-52.5%) [ 6, 11], as well as in our study (51.4%).
The study arms were stratified for gender and study discipline.
