Letter to the editor

We were dismayed to read the on-line preprint of the paper by Whei Jung and Dr. Joonghee Kim, exploring the association of physician gender on first-pass success during emergency endotracheal intubation. We understand that the authors subsequently submitted a revision with a broader analysis and a more nuanced discussion of any gender variables. However, we still wish to voice our concerns about papers that seek to associate physician gender with patient relevant outcomes.
