Drug Alcohol Depend
January 2025
Neuropsychoimaging of Addictions and Related Conditions (NARC), Department of Psychiatry, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York, NY, United States.
Question: The opioid epidemic causes massive morbidity, and males have substantially greater overdose mortality rates than females. It is unclear whether there are sex-related disparities at different stages in the trajectory of opioid use disorders (OUD), from large samples in the community.
Goal: To determine sex disparities in non-medical opioid use (NMOU) at the end of treatment with medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD), using national data.

KDM5D is a gene implicated in spermatogenic failure and sex-related differences in colon cancer progression, though its role in spermatogenesis remains unclear. We successfully generated a KDM5D knockout human embryonic stem cells using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. This knockout cell line provides a valuable model for studying KDM5D's function in spermatogenesis and its influence on sex differences in various diseases.

Background And Aims: Current knowledge about upper extremity artery disease (UEAD) is scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence, treatment patterns, and short- and long-term outcomes of patients suffering from UEAD.
Methods: Retrospective health claims data of patients who were hospitalized with a primary diagnosis of UEAD between 2010 and 2017 were analysed.
Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO, USA.
Background: Tau PET imaging has become pivotal in understanding the pathophysiological processes underlying Alzheimer disease (AD). In individuals without amyloid pathology, there is evidence tau levels are elevated with increase age and that females show greater levels of binding. An unknown question is how consistent these effects are, and whether they are susceptible to methodological choices impacting PET quantification.

Background: Hispanics, one of the fastest-growing populations in the United States, are disproportionately affected by Alzheimer's disease (AD). Understanding the variations in AD risk associated with sex and the impact of relocation from their home country is crucial in designing interventions to address health disparities. This study explores the differential impact of sex and geographic relocation on dementia risk and its associated factors among Hispanics.
