Methods and Materials: We assessed the effect of manipulating six different race-gender categories on ASCVD risk scores among 90 Black transgender women. Results: Risk scores varied by opera…
Transgender Adults From Minoritized Ethnoracial Groups in the U.S. Report Greater Subjective Cognitive Decline
When considering the intersection of transgender and ethnoracial identities, we found that transgender adults from minoritized ethnoracial groups reported higher odds of SCD when compared to cisgender adults from minoritized ethnoracial groups. Additional studies are needed to understand the relationship between racialized and gendered inequities in cognitive impairment and how specific mechanisms of systemic transphobia and racism may contribute…

The Combined Influence of Air Pollution and Home Learning Environment on Early Cognitive Skills in Children
Cognitive skills are one component of school readiness that reflect a child's neurodevelopment and are influenced by environmental and social factors.

The objective of this study was to examine the joint association of markers of environmental pollution and of social factors on early cognitive skills in an …
