Ebook "Challenging popular myths of sex, gender and biology" presents contributions from international researchers from a variety of disciplines—biology, history of science, anthropology, human evolution, and social sciences all with the aim of challenging popular misconceptions of sex differences. The chapters in this collection offer not only a critique of conventional understandings of sex and gender, but the authors also demonstrate that current research fi ndings suggest alternative ways of conceiving of sex, gender, and biology.

Ebook "Psychology in the bathroom" is a different kind of book, switching disciplines and chambers. It is not primarily a study of large, philosophical ideas but an exploration of scientific knowledge about thinking, emotion and behaviour. Its setting is not the boudoir but the smallest room. Rather than studying sex, it examines excretion. This book is an investigation of the ways in which psychological research and theory illuminate elimination and the many phenomena, normal and pathological, that are associated with it.

Large numbers of autosomal sites are found differentially methylated in the aging genome. Due to analytical difficulties in dealing with sex differences in X-chromosome content and X-inactivation (XCI) in females, this has not been explored for the X chromosome.

The genetic underpinning of sexual dimorphism is very poorly understood. The prevalence of many diseases differs between men and women, which could be in part caused by sex-specific genetic efects. Nevertheless, only a few published genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were performed separately in each sex.

Hearing problems (HP) in adults are common and are associated with several comorbid conditions. Its prevalence increases with age, reflecting the cumulative effect of environmental factors and genetic predisposition. Although several risk loci have been already identified, HP biology and epidemiology are still insufciently investigated by large-scale genetic studies.

The distribution of lymphoma subtypes differs strikingly by geographic variations. However, there is limited information on this research in northern Iran. This study aims to evaluate the incidence, subtype, age, sex, and extranodal distribution of lymphomas diagnosed according to the latest WHO classification in a large referral center in northwest Iran.

Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) is the only subgroup of head neck cancer that presents with an increased incidence. Gender-specific studies in other cancer entities have revealed differences in treatment response and prognosis. However, only limited data in OPSCC according to gender and human papillomavirus (HPV) status exist.

Concomitant diseases often occur in cancer patients and are important in decision-making regarding treatments. However, information regarding the prognostic relevance of comorbidities for mortality risk is still limited among Chinese gastric cancer (GC) patients. This study aimed to investigate the association between comorbidities and 3-year mortality risk.

We investigated the effects of somatostatin on the ileal movements after gravity stress and compared these effects between male and female rats. Using an in vitro preparation, measurements of ileal movements evoked by somatostatin application were done at 1, 3, 15 and 30 days after 3G gravity loading-conditioning.

This supports the view that historical under-representation of women in clinical studies is likely due, at least in part, to implicit bias in offering participation.
