Sex determination mode does not affect body or genital development of the central bearded dragon (Pogona vitticeps)

EvoDevo, 2017
Background The development of male- or female-specific phenotypes in squamates is typically controlled by either temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) or chromosome-based genetic sex determination (GSD).

Referral Patterns and Diagnostic Timeliness in Pediatric Cancer: A Hospital‐Based Study in Indonesia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Timely diagnosis and treatment are critical for improving survival among children with cancer. In low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), delays are common and may be influenced by fragmented referral pathways and diagnostic limitations.

Beyond sex allocation : the role of mating systems in sexual selection in parasitoid wasps [PDF]

, 2014
Funding: UK NERC Doctoral Training GrantDespite the diverse array of mating systems and life histories which characterise the parasitic Hymenoptera, sexual selection and sexual conflict in this taxon have been somewhat overlooked.

Adult sex ratios in captive reptiles, birds and mammals vary with the sex determination system

Scientific Reports
The adult sex ratio (ASR; the proportion of males in the adult population) is a key demographic trait that varies widely across species and is linked to mating systems and sexually selected traits.

Sox5 is involved in germ-cell regulation and sex determination in medaka following co-option of nested transposable elements

BMC Biology, 2018
Background Sex determination relies on a hierarchically structured network of genes, and is one of the most plastic processes in evolution. The evolution of sex-determining genes within a network, by neo- or sub-functionalization, also requires the ...

Exercise Capacity, Physical Activity, Fatigue, and Neurocognitive Function in Adult Survivors of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Adult survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) are at risk of reduced exercise capacity, decreased physical activity levels, persistent fatigue, and neurocognitive deficits. The aim was to investigate exercise capacity and physical activity levels of adult survivors of childhood ALL and their associations with ...

The role of ZNRF3 in testis determination [PDF]

, 2019
In mammals, the presence or absence of SRY primarily determines whether the gonad will develop as a testis or an ovary – a process known as sex determination.

Whole-Genome Methylation Analysis of Female, Male, and Neomale Northern Pike (Esox lucius)

Animals
To investigate the effect of epigenetic modifications on sex determination and differentiation in northern pike (Esox lucius), we employed Whole-Genome Bisulfite Sequencing (WGBS) to analyze the DNA methylation patterns in gonadal tissues of females ...

“We Cannot Talk as a Family”: Complexities of Survivorship Communication Among Hispanic/Latino Young Adult Survivors of Childhood Cancer, Parents, and Clinicians

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Young adult childhood cancer survivors (YA‐CCS) have an increased risk of treatment‐related health complications throughout their lives. Lifelong survivorship care is recommended, yet many YA‐CCS experience disruptions in care during pediatric‐to‐adult transitions and do not receive recommended survivorship care.
