Sex differences can shape diagnosis and treatment!

Study design and analysis can falsely cover or uncover sex differences in biomedical research. We provide statistical guidance for sex inclusion across design, analysis, and reporting. @nusratr.bsky.social

What could this look like? Some potential guidelines:

1. Try to use no more than 100 words in the whole poster (outside of text inside of tables and figures).

2. Make the figures giant.

3. Present *way less information.*

4. Ask a question on the poster to engage the audience.
