Strategies for studying sex differences in brain aging.
Review in Trends in genetics : TIG, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Studying sex effects and their underlying mechanisms is of major relevance to understanding brain health. Despite growing interests, experimentally studying sex differences, particularly in the context of aging, remains challenging. Since sex chromosomal content influences gonadal development, separating the effects of gonadal hormones and chromosomal factors requires specific model systems. Here, we highlight rodent and tractable models for examining sex dimorphism in brain and cognitive aging. In addition, we discuss multi-omic and bioinformatic approaches that yield biological insights from animal and human studies. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the diverse toolkit now available to advance our understanding of sex differences in brain aging.
