Abstract

Transgender and gender diverse (TGD) individuals face discrimination and experience disparate healthcare, and cancer care, in particular. Our team has developed four initiatives to start to mitigate the disparities facing TGD individuals, including (1) improving identification of TGD individuals with cancer in oncology clinics, (2) identifying rates and predictors of cancer screening among TGD individuals, (3) building a TGD patient-centric oncology clinic, and (4) developing prospective research that is dedicated to addressing the needs of TGD Individuals with cancer. Clinician-focused educational initiatives are integral aspects of this work to improve cancer care for TGD individuals.

改善变性人和性别多元化（TGD）人士所面临的癌症相关差异的教育倡议。

变性人和性别多元化（TGD）人士面临歧视，在医疗保健方面，尤其是癌症护理方面，遭遇着不平等待遇。我们的团队已经制定了四项计划，以着手减轻变性人和性别多元化者所面临的差距，其中包括：（1）改善肿瘤诊所对患有癌症的变性人和性别多元化者的识别；（2）确定变性人和性别多元化者的癌症筛查率和预测因素；（3）建立一个以变性人和性别多元化者患者为中心的肿瘤诊所；以及（4）开展前瞻性研究，致力于满足变性人和性别多元化者的癌症需求。以临床医生为重点的教育活动是这项工作不可或缺的一部分，目的是改善对 TGD 患者的癌症护理。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
