The paper highlights the uneven distribution of training centers, with 44% in Punjab and Sindh each, 11% in KPK, and none in Balochistan or Gilgit-Baltistan. However, Table 1 lists 18 centers, while the text mentions 22 centers elsewhere. Could the authors clarify this discrepancy? Additionally, the study notes that women comprise only 19.3% of trainees, but it does not explore whether this underrepresentation correlates with the lack of training facilities in certain regions (e.g., Balochistan). Could regional disparities further exacerbate gender inequity in neurosurgery training?
