cord-002774-tpqsjjet 2017 Results: The CHIP Framework The CHIP framework aims to improve the health and wellness of the urban communities served by St. Josephs Health Centre through four intersecting pillars: • Raising Community Voices provides an infrastructure and process that supports community stakeholder input into health care service planning, decision-making, and delivery by the hospital and across the continuum of care; • Sharing Reciprocal Capacity promotes healthy communities through the sharing of our intellectual and physical capacity with our community partners; • Cultivating Integration Initiatives facilitates vertical, horizontal, and intersectoral integration initiatives in support of community-identified needs and gaps; and • Facilitating Healthy Exchange develops best practices in community integration through community-based research, and facilitates community voice in informing public policy. cord-002939-6a3ga6v9 2018 To investigate the factors associated with death and describe the gestational outcomes in pregnant women with influenza A(H1N1)pdm09, we conducted a case-control study (deaths and recovered) in hospitalized pregnant women with laboratory-confirmed influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 with severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) in the state of São Paulo from June 9 to December 1, 2009. The objective of this study was to analyze factors associated with death in pregnant women with influenza A(H1N1) pdm09 and severe acute respiratory illness (SARI) and describe the gestational and neonatal outcomes. A case-control study was conducted that evaluated pregnant women living in São Paulo with confirmed infection of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 and hospitalized with SARI, defined as: fever and cough and dyspnea or pneumonia or respiratory failure or tachypnea or radiological alterations consistent with pneumonia or oxygen therapy or mechanical ventilation. cord-004495-6cd5sqab 2020 At a low-resource tertiary hospital, this study assessed the quality of intrapartum care and adherence to locally-tailored clinical guidelines. While FHRM was generally performed suboptimally with a median interval of 105 (interquartile range 57–160) minutes, occurrence of an intrapartum risk event (non-reassuring FHR, oxytocin use or poor progress) increased assessment frequency significantly (rate ratio 1.32 (CI 1.09–1.58)). As found in our hospital, after unrealistic international guidelines were adapted to better suit the local resource-limited reality, significant improvements were observed in quality of care, stillbirths were reduced by one-third and the number of neonates with birth asphyxia nearly halved (Box 1) [9] . This was associated with improved quality of care, including improved foetal heart rate surveillance (a reduction in median time interval from last FHR to delivery from 120 (IQR 60-240) to 74 (IQR 30-130) minutes), more judicial use of oxytocin and improved management of women with severe hypertensive disorders. cord-004894-75w35fkd 2006 The unadjusted median (25-75% percentile) sperm concentration in the non-exposed group (n = 90) is 49 (23-86) mill/ml compared to 33 (12-63) mill/ml among men exposed to >19 cigarettes per day in fetal life (n = 26 Aim: To estimate the prevalence of overweight and obesity, and their effects in physical activity (PA) levels of Portuguese children and adolescents aged 10-18 years. Objectives: a) To estimate the sex-and age-adjusted annual rate of tuberculosis infection (ARTI) (per 100 person-years [%py]) among the HCWs, as indicated by tuberculin skin test conversion (TST) conversion, b) to identify occupational factors associated with significant variations in the ARTI, c) to investigate the efficacy of the regional preventive guidelines. Objectives: We assessed the total burden of adverse events (AE), and determined treatment-related risk factors for the development of various AEs. Methods: The study cohort included 1362 5-year survivors, treated in the Emma Childrens Hospital AMC in the Netherlands between 1966-1996. cord-010699-mfe1oajn 2020 Considering the high burden of HPV-related cancers among HIV+ women and the possible effectiveness of a 9-valent HPV vaccine [16] , it is critical to understand the prevalence and types of HPV infections in oral and cervical mucosa in HIV+ women (and matched controls). In the present study, we aimed to determine the HPV prevalence, distribution, and type concordance between cervical and oral samples of HIV+ women and HIVmatched controls in the southern region of Brazil, a geographic area with high incidences of HIV and CC. The high prevalence of non-vaccine hrHPV types of 2-valent and 4-valent vaccines in the cervical and oral mucosa found in our study suggests that the 9-valent HPV vaccine is significantly required, which is considered important to reduce the risk of developing HPV-related cancers, specifically in the HIV+ population. cord-011023-eahx37cy 2019 Local and international research has shown that counselling for women who have experienced relationships characterised by intimate partner violence (IPV) can have many positive effects. These include: viewing IPV relationships as developing in stages, and modelling therapy based on this perspective; a client-centred approach in which the counsellor facilitates the client in choosing solutions and actions that are compatible and appropriate for themselves (the client) (McHattie 2011); and a competency framework that focuses on counselling skills, specialist knowledge and specific personal characteristics needed for working with this client group (Roddy and Gabriel 2019) . Given the high level of gender-based violence in many countries (including South Africa, the site of this study), and that counsellors tend to be women, how the counsellors experience the counselling encounter in regard to IPV is an important aspect of understanding such counselling. The micro-narratives the counsellors related of their experiences of counselling women in IPV relationships, and the associated subject positions, point to a number of conundrums or double binds. cord-013390-i5h7ob3n 2020 cord-015394-uj7fe5y6 2008 Studies involving immunohistochemical analysis of normal ovaries have shown that granulosa cells express significantly higher levels of the activator protein-1 (AP-1) transcription factor, cFos compared to theca cells, where cFos expression is virtually absent. Following acute hypoxia (0.5% O2) for one to six hours, RhoA mRNA, total protein and activation (RhoA-GTP) levels were analysed, using semi-quantitative PCRs and western blot, and compared to normoxic non-pregnant human uterine smooth muscle control cells. Since there is an urgent need for non-invasive methods for determination of fetal (F) and placental (P) function, this study was designed to evaluate the genes differently and commonly expressed in P tissue and leukocytes in maternal (M) and F circulation.Material and Methods. The current study: 1) localized IL-6 mRNA levels in preeclamptic versus normal decidual sections; 2) evaluated mechanisms regulating IL-6 synthesis by targeting intracellular signaling pathways with specific inhibitors; 3) identified potential IL-6 targets by immunolocalizing the IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) to specific cell types in placental bed biopsies. cord-016173-ro7nhody 2014 Although most clinical practices use symptom-based, guideline-directed assessments to decide on medication use, recent data from a randomized controlled trial suggest lower rates of exacerbation, improved quality of life, and reduced neonatal hospitalization when management decisions were based on measurements of exhaled nitric oxide in pregnancy [ 10 ] . Changes in physiology and immunity associated with pregnancy may increase the risk of infection and severe outcomes in the pregnant women. In addition, infl uenza infection during pregnancy increases the risk of adverse fetal outcomes. Pregnant women are at increased risk for morbidity (including cardiorespiratory complications) and mortality from infl uenza compared with nonpregnant controls [ 43 -46 ] that is more pronounced in the second and third trimester of pregnancy [ 47 ] . In view of potential severe maternal disease from infl uenza and adverse fetal outcomes, benefi ts of treatment with antivirals likely outweigh the potential risks to the fetus. cord-017105-mljywm9p 2017 Uncontrolled asthma increases the risk of severe maternal and fetal complications including preeclampsia, preterm birth, low birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction, and increased perinatal mortality. In another case-control study, pregnancy had little effect on patients with stable CF, although poor outcomes were seen in those with severe disease. Pregnancy increases the risk of complications of pneumonia including respiratory failure, and the mortality is higher. Pregnant women are at an increased risk for pulmonary edema due to the hypervolemia and high cardiac output of pregnancy, the occasional need for tocolytic drugs that affect the vascular bed, and some clinical conditions unique to pregnancy. Pregnant patients are predisposed to thromboembolic disease for several reasons including (1) an increase in several coagulation factors and a decrease in fibrinolytic activity, leading to a hypercoagulable state, (2) venous stasis caused by uterine compression of the inferior vena cava and the left iliac vein, and (3) trauma to pelvic veins at the time of delivery. cord-017367-15o6g57q 2008 cord-018616-31n8zs84 2018 cord-022678-86s3u7dl 2004 cord-027379-e8yk4a09 2020 title: Risk Profiles of Financial Service Portfolio for Women Segment Using Machine Learning Algorithms Furthermore, the stochastic nature of the data makes it difficult to generate a suitable profile to offer an adequate financial portfolio to the women segment. Such institutions include governmental organizations, who wish to increase the involvement of women in the finance industry [23] , and also of financial institutions that wish to classify better the profiles of their clients. And these type of techniques can benefit the study of risk profiles due to being able to create complex models, manage the amount of features and classify them with high accuracy. For the financial institution it will help to provide a better product, a safer investment, and aid in its decision-making as a better way of classifying and understanding user risk profiles. The goal is to create a model that predicts the value of a target variable by learning simple decision rules inferred from the data features. cord-030378-f9hf9plf 2020 In addition, there are known issues with respirator and personal protective equipment (PPE) fit for women, which further increases the risk of infection.6 As we can only speculate regarding potential gender differences in either individual-or population-level infection rates for frontline physicians, future reports of Covid-19 infections and deaths among health care workers should be reported by job title (i.e., physicians, nurses, technicians), gender, race, and ethnicity. Despite new challenges in both the home and work environment, the role of academic physicians and their responsibilities in research, administration, and education remain, and the Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in the creation of countless new opportunities to contribute to the advancement of science and education. Whether one is caring for young children, aging parents, or partners, the combination of increasing clinical challenges with new caregiving responsibilities is creating major barriers for continued academic productivity including " reduced work hours and frequent interruptions. cord-031547-pjrutidu 2020 Even before the novel coronavirus, COVID-19, was declared a pandemic, prominent women mayors in the United States enacted proactive and innovative policies to prevent local outbreaks and soften the social and economic repercussions. Several Black women mayors, in particular, have led the way in local pandemic response efforts. Several Black women mayors in particular, including San Francisco mayor London Breed, Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot, and Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, have demonstrated remarkable leadership and ingenuity. This article uses hypothesis-generating case studies (Levy 2008) of Democratic women mayors of large U.S. cities to theorize about potential systematic gendered responses to the pandemic. In Arizona, when the statewide stay-at-home order was set to expire, Mayors Romero, Gallego, and Evans issued a statement urging the governor to follow all Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines and to present clear data showing a decline in cases before reopening the state. cord-032245-f5g3r3nv 2020 cord-033817-hxxa299y 2020 Drawing on qualitative inquiry in agrarian north India and Nepal, this research note analyzes how South Asian COVID-19 lockdowns have affected women''s labor responsibilities in sometimes surprising ways. We conclude that more research is needed to examine the nuanced aspects of COVID-19''s gendered labor impacts to create comprehensive policy responses to address the multiple and sometimes conflicting effects the lockdown has had on agrarian women''s informal labor and well-being. 2018) In this research note, we draw on qualitative data collected in Nepal and the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh (HP) to explore the complex impacts that COVID-19 and lockdown policies are having on women''s labor roles within the context of agrarian distress. Scholars have found that rural parents in India often sustain their own hope for THE GENDERED IMPACTS OF COVID-19 AMID AGRARIAN DISTRESS the future through investing in children''s education (Jakimow 2016) . cord-033827-ex1ahuc6 2020 We find that women overall, as well as female political party members, workers, and workplace leaders in particular, share a distinctively female perspective that more heavily emphasizes caution with respect to COVID-19 compared with men. We find that women tend to share distinctive perspectives regarding COVID-19 that emphasize caution far more than is the case for their male counterparts, and we show that the gender difference tracks across political parties. In light of the poor representation of women among decision makers in most U.S. industries and in politics, the results of this analysis suggest that regulations about COVID-19-related issues are likely to be less focused on the protection of individuals from the coronavirus than might otherwise be the case if women were equally represented in leadership roles in the United States. As a result, we examine whether there is a gender gap among workers regarding responses to COVID-19 and, in turn, whether differences exist between workplace leaders versus nonleader employees. cord-034124-k49osvkd 2020 cord-252902-qtfx49qp 2020 cord-255166-sar50ej0 2007 cord-255376-nqq5ieyg 2020 cord-255476-p0gyyl3c 2020 Current literature suggests minimal maternal, fetal, and neonatal morbidity and mortality.(1) COVID‐19 manifestations appear similar between pregnant and non‐pregnant women.(2) OBJECTIVES/STUDY DESIGN: We present a case of placental SARS‐CoV‐2 virus in a woman with mild COVID‐19 disease, then review the literature. Evidence of placental COVID‐19 raises concern for placental vasculopathy (potentially leading to fetal growth restriction and other pregnancy complications) and possible vertical transmission – especially for pregnant women who may be exposed to COVID‐19 in early pregnancy. In this case study, we present a case of placental SARS-CoV-2 virus in a woman with an uncomplicated pregnancy and mild COVID-19 disease. To date, there is still no other published work about SARS-CoV-2 virus by immunohistochemistry in the placentas of women with mild COVID-19 disease. Despite her having mild COVID-19 disease in pregnancy, we demonstrate placental vasculopathy and presence of SARS-CoV-2 virus across the placenta. Vertical transmission of COVID-19: SARS-CoV-2 RNA on the fetal side of the placenta in pregnancies with COVID-19 positive mothers and neonates at birth cord-265077-7dh669jv 2020 METHODS: A retrospective case-controlled study was conducted to review clinical and CT data of 21 pregnant and 19 age-matched non-pregnant women with COVID-19 pneumonia. CONCLUSION: Pregnant women with COVID-19 pneumonia did not present typical clinical features, while developing a relatively more severe disease at imaging with a slower recovery course and experiencing similar outcomes compared with the non-pregnant women. Previous studies have described the clinical characteristics and intrauterine vertical transmission potential in pregnant women with COVID-19 pneumonia and compared their outcomes with those of general population. In this case-controlled study, we aimed to investigate the clinical features, serial chest CT findings, and outcomes in pregnant women with COVID-19 pneumonia by comparing with age-matched non-pregnant women, which are crucial for profiling the disease in the special populations seeking the early detection, accurate diagnosis, and timely obstetrical management. cord-272001-er7lvhn5 2020 The primary aim of this pilot study was to use mixed-methods to better understand the mental health and well-being effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, as well as sources of resilience, among women during the perinatal period. Thirty-one pregnant and postpartum women participated in phone interviews and were invited to complete an online survey which included validated mental health and well-being measures. 10, 11 Many studies have explored the impacts of disasters, or events that cause disruption exceeding the adjustment capacity of the affected community, 13 on mental health and have found that prenatal and postpartum women may experience significantly higher rates of mood disorders during disasters compared with the general population. 19 The primary aim of this pilot study was to use mixed-methods to better understand mental health and well-being, as well as sources of resilience, for women in the perinatal period during the COVID-19 pandemic. cord-275786-etli5c3a 2020 cord-277343-0el69uxr 2020 cord-285898-rtqkvf63 2014 In the case of clarithromycin, there was some 2.6 Anti-infective Agents 2 Pregnancy initial concern as animal experiments demonstrated teratogenic effects, and for instance, in some studies cardiovascular defects were induced in rats. In a prospective cohort study with 949 women who were exposed to a fluorquinolone during the first trimester, neither the rate of major birth defects, nor the risk of spontaneous abortion were increased compared to a control group (Padberg 2014) . Danish cohort studies based on a prescription register also could not find an increased risk of birth defects after first trimester exposure in several thousand pregnant women (Nørgaard 2008 , Sørensen 1999 ). Data from the Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry (2013) with 27 birth defects in 905 cases, indicate a malformation rate of 3.0% after exposure during the first trimester, similarly as seen in the general population of the USA. Three birth defects were observed among 141 pregnant women with first trimester exposures reported to the Antiretroviral Pregnancy Registry (2013). cord-289680-pjcskj4m 2020 Research on gender and politics shows that exceptional environments can activate stereotypes of women as honest, trustworthy, and competent lawmakers in public health and, in doing so, can generate increased public support for female political candidates. In line with this research, the Coronavirus Pandemic may increase female representation not due to their perceived trustworthiness or competence in public health but because party leaders are more likely to assign women to leadership positions with high risk of failure in moments of crisis. Reports praising German Chancellor Angela Merkel''s sciencebased response, widespread testing, transparency, stringent social distancing policies, travel restrictions, and relational appeals to the public to induce compliance 6 and New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Arden''s clarity, compassion, strict national lockdown, travel restrictions, and pervasive testing (Mahdawi, 2020) 7 have fostered the narrative that female executives have more effectively, efficiently, and impressively handled the coronavirus pandemic (Cherneski, 2020) . cord-291681-igp6g3l7 2020 cord-292800-5hy4uxpf 2020 (1) They report increases in the utilization 3 of both contraceptive implants (particularly by adolescent women) and intrauterine devices, 4 and decreases in the use of oral contraceptives and permanent contraception. It would be reasonable to ask if these 10 trends predict future increases in women''s use of these highly effective and safe methods. About that same time, the 5 Affordable Care Act progressively removed many of the financial barriers to long-acting 6 methods, which measurably increased IUD use by privately insured women. Some new methods such as the 13-cycle EE/segestrel 4 vaginal ring and vaginal pH regulators for contraception still require clinicians to prescribe 5 them, but their use is controlled by the woman. Finally, the critical ongoing problem that Kavanaugh and Pliskin remind us of in their article is 7 the persistently high proportion (12%) of sexually active women who use no method of birth 8 control even though they do not desire to become pregnant. cord-292853-xihpfidg 2015 A social-ecological framework is used to differentiate the impact of exposure to traumatic stressors and the development of (or resistance to) PTSD, based on the individual''s or group''s (i) personal, unique physical characteristics, including skin color, racial background, gender, and sexual orientation; and (ii) family, ethnocultural, and community membership, including majority or minority group status, religious beliefs and practices, socioeconomic resources, and political and civic affiliations. Depending on Social, cultural, and other diversity issues in the traumatic stress field 505 their cultural background and its traditions and beliefs, individuals may also have "multiple vulnerability status"-that is, to be members of more than one group or to have characteristic that cause them to be even more susceptible to discrimination or victimization (i.e., adolescent black male in the United States; a baby born with physical or developmental disabilities in a culture that endorses selective resources to the ablebodied; a gay man or lesbian woman of color in a highly homophobic and racist society). cord-295650-90pf87mj 2020 We explore how the gender wage gap is driven primarily by the fact that men and women sort into different work, with women being over‐represented in work where they care for others and in work that allows them to care for their families. This gap is driven primarily by the fact that men and women sort into different work, with women being over-represented in work where they care for others and in work that allows them to care for their families (Blau & Kahn, 2017; Goldin, 2014; Reskin, 1993) . Even when men and women work in the same professions, they continue to be sorted into high-and low-status positions. For example, men in care occupations tend to reach management and supervisory roles faster than women, a phenomenon known as the ''glass escalator'' (Williams, 1992) . Occupational segregation and the devaluation of women''s work across U.S. labor markets cord-297635-higq7wje 2020 cord-299521-igo40dbs 2020 In one of the first studies to examine how positive affect, negative affect, gender, and gender roles interact with entrepreneurial intention, we conducted an online survey of 849 adults from the western, midwestern, and southern regions of the United States. The main reasons cited for differences between men and women''s EINT are (1) perceptions that the characteristics necessary for successful entrepreneurship are stereotypically male, (2) lack of training for women, (3) unfavorable economic and social environments for women, (4) lack of education for women, and (5) a lack of entrepreneurial self-efficacy among women [48, 49] . The data used for this paper were part of a larger study that utilized an internet-based survey and examined multiple constructs including EINT, acceptance of traditional gender roles, career choice, entrepreneurial industry interest, positive and negative affect, marketing strategies, and kidpreneur activities. The present study explored positive and negative affect, EINT, gender, and acceptance of traditional gender roles. cord-301992-oin1m0uq 2020 cord-303035-xfg3iczd 2020 cord-306453-w1sxap5p 2020 cord-308424-crvnzr44 2020 cord-308652-i6q23olv 2020 cord-309892-z7rb7adi 2020 cord-310365-mb6y20jf 2020 cord-311918-gifwg2ho 2020 cord-313924-3swrn1rv 2020 cord-318211-hhp84ygq 2020 The aim of this prospective cohort study was to determine whether women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) have an increased risk of pregnancy complications compared to normal pregnant women. This observation suggests that the number of miscarriages-a likely indicator of the gravity of the condition-is a major determinant of the reproductive success of women with RPL; in fact, it has been reported that the live birth rates in the successive pregnancy in women with two consecutive losses is around 75% [4, 5] . This prospective, observational, study has been carried out to investigate the occurrence rates of major gestational complications in a cohort of women with RPL compared to normal healthy women without RPL followed during their first subsequent pregnancy after referral. cord-318378-omsc9a8k 2020 7 Gestational weeks of infection, the maturity of the fetus, disease severity and postpartum exacerbation make the management of severe and critically ill cases of pregnant women with Covid-19 more difficult. 14 In a recently published article from New York City, 15 Breslin et al reported that among 43 pregnant women confirmed with Covid-19, the estimated rate of severe maternal disease approximated that of the non-pregnant population at 9.3%. Another report from Iran 17 still described 9 critically ill patients infected with Covid-19, of which 7 cases of maternal deaths and 4 cases of pregnancy loss (stillbirth or neonatal death). Based on the above limited reports, we learned that for some severe cases, after the onset of disease, they may progress to require mechanical ventilation and intensive care, even result in maternal death within a very short time (1 to 2 weeks). cord-319580-awtp0mpg 2020 cord-322299-24uqpro6 2020 This study of over 130 clergy in five old-line Protestant denominations (Episcopal, Lutheran, United Methodist, Presbyterian and UCC) who dissolved their congregations examines the relationships of gender, judicatory respect and pastors'' well-being in their experience of closing a church and vocational transition afterwards; respondents completed a written survey and most also participated in in-depth interviews. Although earlier research has documented a gender gap among clergy in compensation, full-time placements, attainment of higher-level leadership positions, and acceptance of their leadership, we still do not understand whether access to judicatory, as well as congregational support, differs among men and women pastors serving congregations that eventually close (Zikmund et al. This study therefore expects women pastors may be more likely than men to be disappointed when denominational colleagues and superiors fail to respect their dignity by not accepting their identity, including them as much as their male colleagues in professional work, being fair, understanding them, recognizing them, or, in other words, when judicatories fail to exercise inclusive, transformational leadership. cord-325669-6kjlcakt 2020 The purpose of the current review is to highlight the safety of drug treatment for COVID -19 in pregnant women treated with anti-hypertensive medications. In accordance with the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for the management of CV diseases during pregnancy, 100-150 mg/day acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) should be recommended to pregnant women with a high or moderate risk to develop pre-eclampsia (class I; level of evidence A) [17] . In accordance with the American Heart Association (AHA) recommendations [25] , methyldopa should only be prescribed in cases of severe hypertension during pregnancy, considering potential maternal and fetal side effects (class I; level of evidence A). In accordance with the latest ESC guidelines for the management of CV disease during the COVID-19 pandemic, drug-drug interactions should be considered before administering azithromycin in patients treated with LMWH [37] , despite possible beneficial effects by azithromycin in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 [48] . cord-326906-z43l7rsm 2020 cord-328071-ulj2gtn3 2020 cord-328667-r5w09lb6 2020 cord-329964-reoa8kcw 2020 This chapter will proceed as follows: • Reflecting on how the existing challenges faced by women smallholder farmers were exacerbated by the structural causes of the food price crisis; • Examining major policy responses from governments and the private sector and analyzing their effectiveness in addressing the structural causes of the crisis; • Setting out the lessons learned from the major failures of this policy response; • Identifying key challenges and gaps in financial aid to women smallholder farmers and, more specifically, looking at the level of official development assistance (ODA) targeted to them since 2008; and • Providing policy recommendations to address all of these issues. 3.2.1.4.5 Growing role for multinational enterprise Since the food price crisis, global policy has given more space to the private sector: for instance, the G8 launched its New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition in Africa in May 2012, with a goal of "unleashing the potential of the private sector." Developing country governments, bilateral and multilateral aid agencies, and multinational firms have all joined in promoting private investment in agriculture in the Global South. cord-332051-yw5zlucc 2020 cord-332099-d50iu975 2020 Research across all disciplines to face—and to learn from—this crisis should be done through a gender lens, because understanding the realities of women is essential to understand the pandemic''s true effects in Mexico and the world. And in this unprecedented situation, girls and women in Mexico find themselves caught between a rock and a hard place of two public health crises-the pandemic and gender-based violence-in a country where misogyny seems part of our cultural heritage (Htun and Jensenius forthcoming) . During this pandemic, a lot of significant ethical and social issues have been raised, such as: the extent of restrictive measures, the reciprocal duties to healthcare workers, the allocation of scarce resources, and the need for research (Palacios-González 2020). The topics we have discussed about women''s access to health, justice, and a life free of violence must be fundamental issues in any and every plan to face this pandemic. cord-332559-2r2gavbq 2020 cord-335019-esttc16z 2020 OBJECTIVE: To describe the course over time of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in French women from the beginning of the pandemic until mid-April, the risk profile of women with respiratory complications, and short-term pregnancy outcomes. Our main objectives were to describe the course over time of SARS-CoV-2 infection in French pregnant women, the clinical profile and risk factors for women with maternal respiratory complications, and short-term pregnancy outcomes. Aggregated data, extracted from medical files by local physicians, from all diagnosed cases of COVID-19 in pregnant women in these hospitals (for prenatal care, illness, or delivery) from March 1 to April 14 were merged and analyzed to provide a snapshot of the pandemic''s consequences in this population. We then report maternal characteristics and maternal, pregnancy, and neonatal outcomes according to the severity of the respiratory disease, categorized in 3 exclusive groups: non-severe (no respiratory support), requiring oxygen (nasal oxygen therapy or noninvasive ventilation), or critical (invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, ECMO). cord-335723-7wefotwe 2020 Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate numerous health-related markers to obtain greater insight into which biopsychosocial profiles render women more vulnerable to PPD or facilitate a healthy transition from pregnancy to postpartum. The present study proposes an integrative etiopathological model with distinct trajectories including (epi-) genetic vulnerability, chronic stress or adverse life events, which result in a potential dysregulation of the HPA and HPG axis and their counter-regulation and render some women more sensitive to the fluctuations of sex steroids throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. The present study aims to provide further insight into the etiopathological mechanisms that render some women more vulnerable to mood disturbances and anxiety throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period. cord-336083-2tt9053k 2020 Owing to the sexual division of labour, and gendered roles and social norms of performing domestic and care work in a household, the burden of unpaid work falls disproportionately on women. With the closure of offices and educational institutions, and the simultaneously emerging norm of work from home and online education, along with the lack of services of domestic workers, the need to perform unpaid chores like cooking, cleaning, washing, child care among others by household members has increased [3] . Furthermore, the paper will study the gendered impact of lockdown on unpaid labour of women on various parameters like marital status, employment status, income levels and average weekly office hours. For interviews, a sub-sample from stage one was taken based on the characteristics like marital status, employment status, use of services of domestic help, and the responses received on change in time spent on unpaid chores during the lockdown. cord-338282-q2g1vw3y 2020 We then use examples from each stage of the life course to demonstrate how SEP can differentially shape girls'' and women''s health outcomes compared with boys'' and men''s, as well as between sub-groups of girls and women when other axes of inequalities are considered, including ethnicity, race and residential setting. We first describe SDoH theory and then use examples from each life course stage to demonstrate how SEP can differentially shape girls''/women''s health outcomes compared to boys''/men''s. Using keywords including "gender", "sex", "women", "girls", "social gradient", "socioeconomic status", "education", and "health", we searched PubMed, Cochrane, CINAHL and EMBASE databases to identify articles published after the year 1990. The period from adolescence to young adulthood sees a transition from parental level SEP affecting an individual''s health to their own educational status shaping access to socioeconomic resource (e.g. higher income, stable employment) that protect against both the onset and consequences of ill health. cord-342739-iy9vjpuh 2020 In order to assess the potential of the Wuhan 2019-nCoV to cause maternal, fetal and neonatal morbidity and other poor obstetrical outcomes, this communication reviews the published data addressing the epidemiological and clinical effects of SARS, MERS, and other coronavirus infections on pregnant women and their infants. The most common adverse obstetrical outcomes associated with maternal pneumonias from all causes include This newly recognized coronavirus, producing a disease that has been termed COVID-19, is rapidly spreading throughout China, has crossed international borders to infect persons in neighboring countries, and humans infected by the virus are travelling via commercial airlines to other continents. Pregnant women may develop severe disease and fatal maternal and/or fetal outcomes as a result of MERS-CoV infection; however, little is known of the pathophysiology of this infection during pregnancy. cord-343305-vqurc1pj 2020 cord-343684-z63qn66b 2020 cord-343897-f4imrltt 2020 Disorders include carpal tunnel syndrome and other focal neuropathies, Bell palsy, myasthenia gravis, and other neuromuscular junction disorders, acute and chronic inflammatory neuropathy, hereditary and acquired muscle diseases, spinal muscular atrophy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, channelopathies, autonomic neuropathy, and dysautonomia. In one patient-reported symptom-based study, a male fetus and prior back pain were positive risk factors but prior pregnancy was not. One study found further evidence that facial neuropathy is more severe in pregnancy-associated cases despite corticosteroid treatment (Phillips et al., 2017) . A large Italian series reviewed plasmapheresis complications of 936 procedures during 57 pregnancies; treatment indications were various and included some for myasthenia gravis (MG). Pregnancy-induced disease severity alterations and treatment adjustments are important clinical considerations; a multidisciplinary medical approach that includes an obstetrician and neurologist is best (Norwood et al., 2014 15% of mildly affected patients became relatively severe. cord-348221-w37lfv7e 2020 cord-348468-f8i0k5f7 2020 cord-350618-rtilfnzi 2020 cord-351269-xjy6chia 2020 cord-352364-yj31uwiu 2020 We reviewed the available evidence on the use of ICT-based interventions to address intimate partner violence (IPV), evaluating the effectiveness, acceptability, and suitability of ICT for addressing different aspects of the problem (e.g., awareness, screening, prevention, treatment, mental health). Key search terms included women, violence, domestic violence, intimate partner violence, information, communication technology, ICT, technology, email, mobile, phone, digital, ehealth, web, computer, online, and computerized. RESULTS: Twenty-five studies addressing screening and disclosure, IPV prevention, ICT suitability, support and women''s mental health were identified. Recent systematic reviews showed that the efficacy of ICT-based mobile apps for health (mHealth) is still limited, as research in the field lacks long-term studies and existing evidences of impact are inconsistent [52] . Longitudinal impacts of an online safety and health intervention for women experiencing intimate partner violence: randomized controlled trial ICT-based interventions for women experiencing intimate partner violence: research needs in usability and mental health cord-354848-7aakik9a 2020 In particular, Ebola virus is associated with high case fatality and pregnancy and neonatal loss rates, while Zika virus has been associated with multiple congenital anomalies; these features present critical clinical dilemmas for management of pregnant and reproductive aged women. The Monitored Emergency Use of Unregistered and Investigational Interventions ethical framework recommends that vulnerable Contemporary Understanding of Ebola and Zika Virus populations including pregnant women be offered similar treatments to the nonpregnant population when potential benefits can outweigh risks. 75 Attention must be paid to the successes and failures of the response to the Ebola and Zika outbreaks as physicians strive to provide excellent care for pregnant women who are affected by or at risk for emerging infectious diseases. Prevention of Ebola virus includes containment of infected substances and personal protection equipment use, and prevention of Zika virus entails protection against mosquito bites, avoidance of high-risk regions, and delay of childbearing.
