Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> The X chromosome comprises approximately 5% of the human genome and encodes over 800 protein-coding genes, many of which exhibit sex-differentiated expression patterns due to escape from X chromosome inactivation (XCI) mechanisms. Despite its relevance to sex differences in complex traits, the X chromosome is routinely excluded from genome-wide association studies due to analytical challenges, an...
