Patients Women make up half of our planet’s population. However, health conditions that affect women more than men remain consistently underfunded, drawing significantly less funding, research, and attention. These inequalities persist, despite there being enormous benefits to closing the gender health gap. The prevailing narrative often neglects the profound impact such investments can have on both individual lives and the global economy.

Participants were recruited through two state primary schools in Murcia, Spain, as part of a wider study17,18,19. The primary sample comprised 137 Spanish children, aged 7–12 years (2nd – 6th grade). Written, informed consent was obtained from parents prior to acquiring any data, and verbal consent reobtained immediately prior to data acquisition. Parents were advised that they would be informed by the hospital Radiologist if any clinically relevant abnormalities were detected.
