The authors derive a144-gene sex-expression signature from public cohorts and explore age, inferred immune composition and influenza response. Cohort reuse and repeated observations limit independent sample counts. Associations do not establish hormone mechanisms or clinical prediction. A retraction linked inside a cited reference concerns that older paper’s epistasis interpretation; it is not a retraction of this study.
