Article Abstract
As gender diversity becomes more understood and accepted in mainstream culture, medical systems and health care providers must learn to provide comprehensive and affirming care to gender diverse individuals. As the number of gender diverse pediatric patients continues to grow, these patients will be cared for by pediatric solid-organ transplant programs. This review summarizes the basic principles of gender-affirming care and describes how transplant teams can provide equitable and affirming care to young gender diverse patients undergoing solid organ transplant (SOT). In addition, this review uses kidney transplant as a framework to explore gender-affirming hormone therapy and gender-affirming surgery in the setting of transplant, laboratory value interpretation in gender diverse individuals, and the importance of an individualized approach in care of the gender diverse transplant recipient.

Both sexual and gender minority youth (SGMY) and youth living with disabilities are disproportionately impacted by bias-based bullying in school settings. While research has separately examined how sexual and gender minority status and disability status are associated with experiences of bullying, very little research has explored the experiences of youth living with these identities simultaneously. This study examined to what extent SGMY report differential experiences of bias-based bullying depending on various identities and the type of disability an individual reports.
