This paper will consist of two parts. In the first, further support is given to the proposal that offspring sex ratios (proportions male) may usefully be regarded as indicators of public health. In the second, it is shown that sex ratios may help in the identification of the causes and effects of several pathologies that seriously impinge on public health viz. autism, testicular cancer, hepatitis B and toxoplasmosis.
本文将分为两个部分。第一部分，将进一步支持以下观点：后代性别比（男性比例）可有效地被视为公共卫生的指标。第二部分，将表明性别比有助于识别几种严重影响公共卫生的病症的病因和影响，即自闭症、睾丸癌、乙型肝炎和弓形虫病。
