The pregnancy compensation hypothesis, not the staying alive theory, accounts for disparate autoimmune functioning of women around the world
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 45 (2022)
Abstract
The pregnancy compensation hypothesis provides a mechanistic explanation for the evolution of sex differences in immune system functioning, the excess of women experiencing autoimmune disease, and why this is observed only in industrialized nations; none of which can be explained by the staying alive theory, as proposed by the authors of the target article.My notes
