Healio (10/28, Gramigna) reports, “Transgender or gender-nonconforming adolescents may have increased risk for various mental health challenges,” investigators concluded after seeking “to compare the mental health status of” transgender or nonconforming “adolescents in China with that of their cisgender peers.” They did so by analyzing “questionnaire data of 12,108 adolescents from 18 secondary schools in one city in China.” The findings of the “cross-sectional survey study” were published online in JAMA Network Open.
