Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women worldwide.
Women with CVD continue to be under-diagnosed and under-treated due to misconceptions and lack of awareness among both patients and doctors.
Young women are more likely to die following a heart attack than young men.

The best analogy I've heard for neurodivergence is that it is like running on a different operating system. It's like iOS vs Android. Both are good. Both do the job. They just have different features that work better for certain things.

Many of the neoplastic cells in GBM (glioblastoma) are highly migratory and invade the brain well beyond the main tumour mass, making complete surgical resections exceedingly rare.
Survival time of those afflicted with GBM has changed little in >50yrs.
