Published in 2022 at "American Journal of Human Biology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.23776

Abstract: Digit ratio (2D:4D) might reflect prenatal testosterone exposure and has been used as a putative marker for androgen related outcomes. However, such associations might be inflicted by confounders. Application of 2D:4D in epidemiological research motivate… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7374

Abstract: Abstract The European swallowtail butterfly (Papilio machaon) is so named, because of the long and narrow prominences extending from the trailing edge of their hindwings and, although not a true tail, they are referred to… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9825

Abstract: Abstract Ant societies are primarily composed of females, whereby labor is divided into reproductive, or queen, and non‐reproductive, or worker, castes. Workers and reproductive queens can differ greatly in behavior, longevity, physiology, and morphology, but… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Evolutionary Anthropology"

DOI: 10.1002/evan.22052

Abstract: Sexual dimorphism is one of the main factors confounding attempts to generate sound alpha taxonomic hypotheses in the early hominin fossil record. To better understand how between‐sex variation may confound alpha taxonomic assessments, we consider… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Human Brain Mapping"

DOI: 10.1002/hbm.25977

Abstract: The corpus callosum (CC) is the largest fiber tract in the human brain, allowing interhemispheric communication by connecting homologous areas of the two cerebral hemispheres. In adults, CC size shows a robust allometric relationship with… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of Morphology"

DOI: 10.1002/jmor.70041

Abstract: This study investigates the coevolution of male attachment devices and female elytral morphology in coccinellid beetles, focusing on the sexual dimorphism of claws and adhesive pads. We analyzed 11 species from different tribes with different… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Journal of Medical Virology"

DOI: 10.1002/jmv.70654

Abstract: Patients with femur fractures who are concurrently infected with COVID‐19 face a threefold increase in mortality, likely due to a compounded inflammatory response. Furthermore, sex‐specific differences in immune responses to COVID‐19 are well documented, implicating… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "NMR in Biomedicine"

DOI: 10.1002/nbm.3761

Abstract: Ectopic lipid accumulation in the liver is implicated in metabolic disease in an age‐ and sex‐dependent manner. The role of hepatic lipids has been well established within the scope of metabolic insults in mice, but… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00128-019-02632-y

Abstract: Tetragnathid spiders (Tetragnatha spp.) found in riparian habitats have recently been used as bioindicators of sediment contamination and insect-mediated contaminant flux. We investigated whether sexual dimorphism (size and behavior) influenced the female:male ratio in composite… read more here.
