TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Mistrust among rescue workers after the terrorist attack in Berlin in 2016 - gender-specific health inequality JO - Disaster medicine and public health preparedness A1 - Wesemann, Ulrich A1 - Helms, Christian A1 - Polk, Sarah A1 - Mahnke, Manuel A1 - Bühler, Antje A1 - Muschner, Patric A1 - Willmund, Gerd SP - e394 EP - e394 VL - 17 IS - N2 - OBJECTIVES: In this single-case-by-group comparison, we examine whether previously found cisgender differences in paranoid ideation after a terror attack are also seen in a transgender male emergency worker.

METHODS: Sixty emergency personnel who were exposed to the 2016 terror attack in Berlin were evaluated 3 to 4 and 21-25 mo after the attack.

RESULTS: On paranoid ideation, the transgender male showed higher scores than cisgender males (+2 standard deviations [SD]) and the overall group (+1 SD).

CONCLUSIONS: This underpins the previously identified gender effects. It would be useful to consider specified pre- and postdeployment modules that take cis- and transgender differences into account.
