RESUMEN
This letter addresses important considerations for enhancing the research on the gender gap in deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease. While acknowledging the commendable efforts of the study's authors, we highlight several areas that warrant further attention to maximize the research's yield and applicability. Specifically, we emphasize the need for a more diverse cohort to enhance the generalizability of findings, inclusion of a control group for comprehensive evaluation, utilization of additional assessment tools to mitigate bias, incorporation of qualitative data for a holistic understanding, and evaluation of long-term outcomes beyond short follow-up durations. Addressing these considerations would strengthen the validity, applicability, and impact of research findings in this crucial area of study.
