Decoding Dmrt1: Insights into vertebrate sex determination and gonadal sex differentiation [PDF]
Dmrt1 is pivotal in testis formation and function by interacting with genes crucial for Sertoli cell differentiation. Dmrt1, or Sox9, forms a conserved antagonistic interaction with Foxl2 across mammals. Across 128 vertebrate species, Dmrt1 exhibits sexually dimorphic expression, implicating its role in master regulation of sex determination and ...

Sex-by-age differences in the resting-state brain connectivity [PDF]
Recently we developed a novel method for assessing the hierarchical modularity of functional brain networks - the probability associated community estimation(PACE). The PACE algorithm is unique in that it permits a dual formulation, thus yielding equivalent connectome modular structure regardless of whether considering positive or negative edges.

The two classic theories for the existence of sexual replication are that sex purges deleterious mutations from a population, and that sex allows a population to adapt more rapidly to changing environments. These two theories have often been presented as opposing explanations for the existence of sex.

The impact of culture on disclosure in differences of sex development
Differences of sex development (DSD) include a variety of complex congenital genitourinary abnormalities-whether sporadic or hereditary. The 2006 DSD Consensus Statement and 2016 Update Consensus Statement encourage better communication among providers, between providers and parents, as well as among providers, parents, and patients when ...

An improved sex specific and age dependent classification model for Parkinson's diagnosis using handwriting measurement [PDF]
Accurate diagnosis is crucial for preventing the progression of Parkinson's, as well as improving the quality of life with individuals with Parkinson's disease. In this paper, we develop a sex-specific and age-dependent classification method to diagnose the Parkinson's disease using the online handwriting recorded from individuals with Parkinson's(n=37;

Mitochondrial DNA disorders in neuromuscular diseases in diverse populations
Abstract Neuromuscular features are common in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders. The genetic architecture of mtDNA disorders in diverse populations is poorly understood. We analysed mtDNA variants from whole‐exome sequencing data in neuromuscular patients from South Africa, Brazil, India, Turkey and Zambia. In 998 individuals, there were two definite
