    Content: There is a growing awareness about the need to comprehensively integrate sex and gender into health research in order to enhance the validity and significance of research results. An in-depth consideration of differential exposures and vulnerability is lacking, especially within environmental risk assessment. Thus, the interdisciplinary team of the collaborative research project INGER (integrating gender into environmental health research) aimed to develop a multidimensional sex/gender concept as a theoretically grounded starting point for the operationalization of sex and gender in quantitative (environmental) health research. The iterative development process was based on gender theoretical and health science approaches and was inspired by previously published concepts or models of sex- and gender-related dimensions. The INGER sex/gender concept fulfills the four theoretically established prerequisites for comprehensively investigating sex and gender aspects in population health research: multidimensionality, variety, embodiment, and intersectionality. The theoretical foundation of INGER’s multidimensional sex/gender concept will be laid out, as well as recent sex/gender conceptualization developments in health sciences. In conclusion, by building upon the latest state of research of several disciplines, the conceptual framework will significantly contribute to integrating gender theoretical concepts into (environmental) health research, improving the validity of research and, thus, supporting the promotion of health equity in the long term.

    Content: Background In environmental health research, sex and gender are not yet adequately considered. There is a need to improve data collection in population-based environmental health studies by comprehensively surveying sex/gender-related aspects according to gender theoretical concepts. Thus, within the joint project INGER we developed a multidimensional sex/gender concept which we aimed to operationalize and to test the operationalization for feasibility. Methods In an iterative process, we created questionnaire modules which quantitatively captured the requirements of the INGER sex/gender concept. We deployed it in the KORA cohort (Cooperative Health Research in the Region of Augsburg, Germany) in 2019 and evaluated response and missing rates. Results The individual sex/gender self-concept was surveyed via a two-step approach that asked for sex assigned at birth and the current sex/gender identity. Additionally, we used existing tools to query internalized sex/gender roles and externalized sex/gender expressions. Adapted to the KORA population, we asked for discrimination experiences and care and household activities contributing to explain structural sex/gender relations. Further intersectionality-related social categories (e.g., socio-economic position), lifestyle and psychosocial factors were covered through data available in KORA. We could not identify appropriate tools to assess the true biological sex, sexual orientation and ethnic/cultural identity, which have yet to be developed or improved. The response-rate was 71%, the evaluation of 3,743 questionnaires showed a low missing rate. Prevalence of marginalized groups regarding sex/gender identity and definable by experiences of discrimination was very low. Conclusion We have shown how the multidimensional INGER sex/gender concept can be operationalized according to an European and North American understanding of sex/gender for use in quantitative research. The questionnaire modules proved feasible in an epidemiologic cohort study. Being a balancing act between theoretical concepts and its quantitative implementation our operationalization paves the way for an adequate consideration of sex/gender in environmental health research.

    Content: In der Deutschen Umweltstudie zur Gesundheit (GerES) wird die Schadstoff-Belastung der Bevölkerung repräsentativ für die Menschen in Deutschland erhoben. In der fünften Erhebung, GerES V (2014–2017), wurden 2.294 Kinder und Jugendliche im Alter von 3 bis 17 Jahren aus 167 Orten in ganz Deutschland untersucht. GerES V ist eine bevölkerungsrepräsentative Querschnittstudie und wurde in enger Kooperation mit der "Studie zur Gesundheit von Kindern und Jugendlichen in Deutschland" (KiGGS Welle 2) des Robert-Koch-Instituts durchgeführt. Im Human-Biomonitoring (HBM) von GerES V wurden 107 verschiedene Substanzen im Blut bzw. Urin der Teilnehmenden gemessen. Der vorliegende Bericht fasst die HBM-Ergebnisse von GerES V zusammen. Bei Vorliegen entsprechender Beurteilungswerte wird eine gesundheitliche Bewertung vorgenommen. Der Bericht gibt einen Überblick über die Abläufe der Datenerhebung und die chemisch-analytischen und statistischen Methoden. Die wichtigsten Ergebnisse zu Belastungsquellen und -pfaden sowie besonders belasteten Bevölkerungsgruppen sind zusammengefasst und in aggregierter Form tabellarisch präsentiert. Für jede untersuchte Substanz werden außerdem die Quellen, die toxikologischen Eigenschaften und aktuellen Regulationen aufgeführt. Die bisherige Nutzung der Daten aus GerES V für Politik- und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit sowie in internationalen Kooperationen ist ebenfalls dargelegt.
    Content: The German Environmental Survey (GerES) monitors the exposure of the population in Germany to pollutants on a population-representative basis. In the fifth survey, GerES V (2014–2017), 2.294 children and adolescents aged 3 to 17 years from 167 municipalities in Germany were examined. GerES V is a population-representative cross-sectional study and was conducted in close cooperation with the German Health Interview and Examination Survey for Children and Adolescents (KiGGS Wave 2) of the Robert Koch Institute. In the human biomonitoring (HBM) of GerES V, 107 different substances were measured in blood or urine samples of the participants. The present report summarises the HBM results of GerES V. A health-related evaluation of HBM results is made for substances for which corresponding health-related guidance values exist. The report provides an overview on the survey procedures as well as the analytical and statistical methods. Important results on sources and pathways of exposure as well as particularly exposed sub-groups are summarised and presented in aggregated tabular form. For each substance, the sources, toxicological properties and current regulations are summarized as well. The use of GerES V data for policy advice and public relations as well as in international cooperation is also presented.
