Article Abstract
Metabolic syndrome (Mets) is a clinical condition characterized by a cluster of major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes: proatherogenic dyslipidemia, elevated blood pressure, dysglycemia, and abdominal obesity. Each risk factor has an independent effect, but, when aggregated, they become synergistic, doubling the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and causing a 1.5-fold increase in all-cause mortality. We will highlight gender differences in the epidemiology, etiology, pathophysiology, and clinical expression of the aforementioned Mets components. Moreover, we will discuss gender differences in new biochemical markers of metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular risk.

Digital Hostility Toward LGBTQIA+ Research Recruitment on Social Media Using Topic Modeling and Sentiment Analysis of Facebook Comments: Quantitative Content Analysis Study.
J Med Internet Res
September 2025
Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, Boston University, Boston, United States.
Background: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning, intersex, asexual (LGBTQIA+) researchers and participants frequently encounter hostility in virtual environments, particularly on social media platforms where public commentary on research advertisements can foster stigmatization. Despite a growing body of work on researcher virtual hostility, little empirical research has examined the actual content and emotional tone of public responses to LGBTQIA+-focused research recruitment.
Objective: This study aimed to analyze the thematic patterns and sentiment of social media comments directed at LGBTQIA+ research recruitment advertisements, in order to better understand how virtual stigma is communicated and how it may impact both researchers and potential participants.
Diversity on the bench: An analysis of gendered biases in the language of Australian Family Law Court judgments.
PLoS One

School of Law, Society and Criminology, UNSW, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
In this paper we analyse gender-based biases in the language within complex legal judgments. Our aims are: (i) to determine the extent to which purported biases discussed in the literature by feminist legal scholars are identifiable from the language of legal judgments themselves, and (ii) to uncover new forms of bias represented in the data that may promote further analysis and interpretation of the functioning of the legal system. We consider a large set of 2530 judgments in family law in Australia over a 20 year period, examining the way that male and female parties to a case are spoken to and about, by male and female judges, in relation to their capacity to provide care for children subject to the decision.

PLoS One
September 2025
Center for Studies of Education and Psychology of Ethnic Minorities in Southwest China, Southwest University, Chongqing, China.
Background: Educational hypogamy, where women marry men with lower educational attainment, reflects evolving gender roles and societal norms. In China, the rapid expansion of education, coupled with persistent traditional values, provides a unique context to study this phenomenon.
Methods: Using data from the 2013, 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2021 waves of the China General Social Survey (CGSS), this study applies logistic regression models and Random Forest machine learning techniques to analyze the impact of education on women's selection of hypogamy.
