Purpose: The study purpose was to examine opinions about a single-item assessment of differences of sex development (DSD) to be used in research.
Methods: An online survey was conducted with a convenience sample of 111 adults who self-identified as intersex or having a DSD diagnosis. Participants read and provided feedback on the proposed single-item assessment.
Results: The item received general endorsement to represent a population that is often not identified in research; however, participants provided suggestions for improvement.
Conclusion: This study represents a first step toward identifying people with DSD conditions in surveys to better understand their needs.

Essential Tremor (ET) is characterized by action tremor often associated with resting tremor (rET). Although previous studies have identified widespread brain white matter (WM) alterations in ET patients, differences between ET and rET have been less explored. In this study we employed differential tractography to investigate WM microstructural alterations in these tremor disorders.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate if attitudes toward drug use, decision-making, communication, and alcohol resistance skills act as predictors of alcohol use and binge drinking initiation among Brazilian students, considering the sex differences.
Methods: We used a longitudinal sample of 1,103 seventh-grade students from 15 Brazilian public schools. We explored if attitudes toward drug use, decision-making, communication, and alcohol resistance skills at baseline predicted alcohol outcomes nine months later.
Cisplatin exposure dysregulates insulin secretion in male and female mice.

Department of Biology & Institute of Biochemistry, Carleton University, Ottawa, ON, Canada.
Cancer survivors have an increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes compared to the general population. Patients treated with cisplatin, a common chemotherapeutic agent, are more likely to develop metabolic syndrome and Type 2 diabetes than age- and sex-matched controls. Surprisingly, the impact of cisplatin on pancreatic islets has not been reported.

School of Medicine, National Taiwan University, Taipei, Taiwan.
Purpose: To identify the macular retinal layer thickness changes in polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) patients without pathological findings appearing in color fundus photography (CFP), and to investigate the correlations with disease durations.
Methods: A total of 24 PAN patients who had been for 3 years or more and underwent SD-OCT were recruited from the UK Biobank, with exclusions for diabetes, eye disease, or abnormal CFP findings. Only the right eyes were included, with each PAN patient paired one-to-one with a control matched for age, sex, and ethnicity.
