Sex, gender identity and women's health research and equality: An urgent need for clarity of language and accurate data collection.

Background: With the rise in salience of the concept of gender identity, changes are being made to language and data collection with major implications for women's health research and equality. Specifically, language referring to women is being desexed and data collection on sex diminishing. In 2023, Australia's National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) undertook public consultations on two draft guidance documents discussing use of the words 'woman'/'women' when describing the involvement of pregnant women in research, and sex and gender identity data collection.

A systematic review and meta-analysis of interventions to delabel low-risk penicillin allergies with consideration for sex and gender.

Aims: Sex and gender may influence penicillin allergy label (PAL) prevalence and outcomes. This review evaluates the effectiveness and safety of direct delabelling (DD) and oral challenge (OC) for low-risk patients and examines sex and gender differences in reporting and outcomes.

Methods: We searched PubMed, Database of Abstracts of Reviews and Effects, ClinicalTrials.

Prophylactic Permanent Pacemaker Implantation for Baseline Right Bundle Branch Block in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement: Clinical Efficacy, Safety, and Long-Term Pacing Requirement.

Background: Baseline right bundle branch block (RBBB) is an established predictor of permanent pacemaker (PPM) requirement after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). There are limited data to support prophylactic PPM implantation in advance of TAVR. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of prophylactic PPM implantation in patients with RBBB prior to TAVR, and to identify the predictors of pacing dependence after TAVR.

Effects of psychological need thwarting during COVID-19 remote instruction on Chinese, math, and EFL teachers' well-being and online teaching intentions.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic's "Great Online Transition" significantly impacted teachers. Existing research on Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) lacks longitudinal designs and consideration of subject-specific contexts. This study, using the Stressor-Strain-Outcome framework, investigates psychological needs thwarting (PNT) during ERT on teachers' well-being and online teaching intentions, considering subject of instruction as a potential factor.

Support for a Weight-Inclusive Curriculum? Exploring Partner Perspectives and Influences on Nutrition Education in Vermont High Schools.

Background: The weight-normative approach to nutrition education dominates health education programming across the United States, despite evidence that this paradigm contributes to negative outcomes including weight cycling, bias and stigma, the development of disordered eating behaviors, and weight-based bullying.

Methods: This study investigates perspectives of 10 potential partners with interest in and potential to influence nutrition education. Through qualitative interviews and document analysis, researchers explored support for a weight-inclusive curriculum and factors that influence high school nutrition curricular content and implementation.
