Precision medicine
Using sex-stratified UK Biobank association results, the paper builds male- and female-specific disease-disease networks for 103 diseases. The networks share broad topology but differ in how diseases connect and cluster, supporting closer attention to genotype-by-sex interactions in cross-phenotype associations and Precision medicine.
