Update. "Despite overall gains since 2015, women remain underrepresented in scientific organizations compared with their share of the global scientific workforce (31.1% of researchers worldwide in 2022). In national academies, women represent on average 19% of members in 2025, up from 12% in 2015 and 16% in 2020, with proportions ranging from 2% to nearly 40%. The share of academies with very low representation (fewer than 10% women members) has fallen by around half since 2015."

Update. In the field of emergency medicine, most journals (66%) did not comply with the Sex and Gender Equity in Research (#SAGER) guidelines. However, those that did had "significantly" higher citation impact than those that did not. https://escholarship.org/uc/item/6ct1w42s #Gender #GenderBias #Medicine
