At this time, our recommendation is for all human genetics experiments to conduct stratified analyses on sex at all times, even without statistical justification in the form of a sex × SNP interaction. Simply conducting the analyses is not enough, though, as scientists will also need to report that the analyses were done and what they found, independent of the result. Furthermore, it is important for investigators who do observe evidence for sex differences to always include sex as a keyword in their manuscript, which would allow for a more comprehensive results list when searching the literature for sex differences.
