title: A look at women's health issues.
abstract: Women's health issues have become the focus of much debate. A critical question in that debate centers on gender bias in medical research, which may result in bias in treatment. In this article, several disease processes are examined as they relate to women today. The areas of uncertainty in treatment, as well as areas of needed research, are highlighted.
