{"title":"Health determinants in italian type 2 diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients : a critical gender differences analysis","authors":"R. Caruso, C. Arrigoni, A. Magon, F. Pittella, F. Dellafiore, A. Grugnetti, D. Ausili, F. Auxilia","doi":"10.22381/JRGS7220176","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.22381/JRGS7220176","url":null,"abstract":". Different studies described the important role of wellbeing, self-care and self-efficacy (i.e. health determinants) to achieve best health outcomes in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients. However, literature has paid little attention to highlight the possible gender differences related to the T2DM perception of those health determinants. For these reason, the aim of this study was to describe T2DM patients’ gender differences related to their wellbeing, self-care and self-efficacy. This study was performed by a secondary analysis of data from a cross-sectional research, conducted in an outpatient setting in Northern Italy. Data was collected from March 2014 and July 2016 in a cohort of 115 T2DM outpatients, aged from 60 to 91 years (mean = 69.78 ± 7.11). Our results showed that men perceived more general wellbeing than women, and more diabetes specific self-efficacy. No differences seemed to be related to self-care. Indeed, the stratification by gender of the bivariate analysis allowed to identify many peculiarities related to wellbeing domains and self-efficacy. This study had a pioneering nuance in Italian assessment of T2DM health determinants, and it could have a number of future implications. Further empirical researches should provide more information to deeply understand the T2DM patients’ peculiarities, which could help nurses to improve a personalized care delivery .

In 2013, the country ranked among the ten nations with the highest rates of teenage pregnancy in the world, with 28% of girls aged 1519 years pregnant or already having had at least one birth (UNFPA, 2015). Nearly 40% of women between the ages of 20 and 24 had their first child before the age of 18 (UNFPA, 2013: 15). The majority of teenagers are sexually active, with a 2013 survey of 3,000 15-to-35-year-old female and male respondents finding that 95% were currently sexually active and half of the sexually active females had their first sexual experience at the age of 16 (Marie Stopes, 2013). The same survey found that only 45% reported using any contraceptive method (Marie Stopes, 2013: 2). A reported increase during the Ebola outbreak raised the profile of teenage pregnancy and led to significant investments of donor resources to address the problem. UNFPA (2015) have since reported that 18,119 girls became pregnant during the Ebola epidemic in Sierra Leone. While there are no concrete figures on pregnancy rates prior to the epidemic with which to compare, this is widely considered to be a significant increase.Governmental and aid funding to address this challenge has been channeled towards priorities laid out in Sierra Leone's National Strategy for the Reduction of Teenage Pregnancy, launched in 2012 by President Ernest Bai Koroma. This Strategy came to an end in 2015, with a new National Strategy to be developed in 2016. It is therefore an opportune moment to reflect on the nature of the problem of teenage pregnancy in Sierra Leone and efforts to reduce it, and to think creatively about how to move forward with current and new programming. This analysis of the complexities of the issue of teenage pregnancy in Sierra Leone may also be informative for policymakers and practitioners elsewhere in the region and internationally who are grappling with similar issues.This paper builds on two stages of research in Sierra Leone aimed at examining donor-supported programming around the reduction of teenage pregnancy. It seeks to understand some of the common approaches that donor and non-governmental (NGO) programs have adopted to deal with this problem, and explore how these efforts play out at the local level. The intention is to provide reflections and analysis that can inform the development of the new National Strategy and assist in refining programming to reduce teenage pregnancy. Overwhelmingly, our research finds that there is a need to shift the focus of interventions from changing girls' behavior to changing the contexts in which they are becoming pregnant. That is, much programming to date has focused on encouraging girls to abstain from sex, use contraception, stay in school, and generally make \"better\" choices. Some important progress has been made as a result - adolescent fertility rates (number of births per 1,000 women ages 15-19) have drop","PeriodicalId":342957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Gender Studies","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134070218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2013) empowerment index, and household dietary diversity, based on the FAO groupings of food intake within the household. Accounting for potential endogeneity of empowerment, as well as using both the non-parametric regression and the traditional least square regression, we find that increases in empowerment are positively associated with household dietary diversity. Overall, household that are female biased in terms of share of female within the household, and those that favour female leadership tend to have higher significant improvement in their dietary intake with empowerment. On the contrary, empowerment generates a small proportion of male dietary diversity.","PeriodicalId":342957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research in Gender Studies","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124580289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
