Diversity of sex-related mortality and outcome in preterm infants and neonates (S02)

该项目将开发预测出生后类固醇激素的多基因评分。因此，该项目将把“性别多样性”的概念作为与基因相关的类固醇激素水平来运作，而不是采用本质上的二元论。通过现有的德国新生儿网络(GNN)，将在生命的头48小时内采集血液样本，并与M06及其类固醇测量服务单位合作，建立荷尔蒙状况并计算各自的多基因得分。

The project will develop polygenic scores predictive for steroid hormones after birth. Thus, instead of adopting an essentialising binarism, the project will operationalise the concept of “sex diversity” as genetically related steroid hormone levels. Through the existing German Neonatal Network (GNN), blood samples will be drawn in the first 48 hours of life and, in collaboration with M06 and their service unit for steroid measurements, a hormonal profile will be established and the respective polygenic scores calculated.
