The AI-ECG model treats sex as a continuum, rather than a dichotomy (the current paradigm). This (and a derived biomarker) allows them to show that in those at low cardiovascular (CV) risk, female individuals (but not male individuals) with a higher biomarker score are at increased risk of CV death. The method can help mitigate exisiting inequities in CV healthcare.
