摘要
Policies that require male-female sex comparisons in all areas of biomedical research conflict with the goal of improving health outcomes through context-sensitive individualization of medical care. Sex, like race, requires a rigorous, contextual approach in precision medicine. A "sex contextualist'' approach to gender-inclusive medicine better aligns with this aim.
