Caribbean females had 3-4 times higher infection rates than males up to a decade ago. Studies that focus on the contributing psychosocial factors to HIV risk in the Caribbean are limited. This narrative review showcases pivotal work which addresses the reciprocally connected responsibilities of patriarchy and religious practices and how they feed into the desolate reality of Anglophone Caribbean women. The relationship between these cultural issues in the Caribbean, using an anthropological lens, sets a platform for an investigation into HIV and AIDS. This paper seeks to encourage further research centred on the religious elements, which influence heterosexual relationships, and how these relationships are predisposed to potential HIV and AIDS risk. The ultimate goal of this study is to provide English- speaking Caribbean faith-based organisations, public health officials and policymakers a public stage to consider further policy implications for the staggering and disproportionate rates of HIV and AIDS between women and men. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":93266,"journal":{"name":"Archives of women health and care","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76341803","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}

Forced segregation and other dangerous or at least discriminatory practices during menstruation can be observed in a number of cultures, such as Nepal, but also in other regions. The present pandemic with its special risks and lockdown measures must be expected to potentially cause additional problems for women in the critical time of menstruation. Aims and methodology: The aim of our study was to collect information on the experience of women in different regions and identify risk factors for such practices, such as education, health belief systems and bias in the communities together with the impact of the COVID pandemic on these factors. The survey was conducted online to keep safety protocols necessary during the SARS 2 pandemic. To identify possible key factors we conducted a qualitative/mixed method survey resulting in categories and vivid descriptions relating to violence and discrimination. 139 participants, (age range 13-48 years, 85.8 percent female, else LGBT) from different countries, including both low-economy countries with high rates of reported discrimination such as Nepal and India, but also from the US participated in the survey. Results: Patients reported experience of bias and insufficient or incorrect information by parents, and later in the communities. Lockdown measures impacted in some cases, but in general to a lesser degree on access to dignified hygienic measures required during menstruation, as compared to before the pandemics, but was reported to increase the social stress and reduce social support. Shame, insecurity and distress during menstruation and were described as main adverse factors influencing well-being and psychological health.","PeriodicalId":93266,"journal":{"name":"Archives of women health and care","volume":"30 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91180719","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}

In care practices, nurses primarily tend to practices that will increase the quality of care and create the continuity of care. In our age, with the increase in the use of technology in the health system, different service areas have emerged and it has made it compulsory for nurses to innovate in the care they apply in order to be effective in solving health-related problems. Similar to the world, nursing practices in our country; Factors such as the increasing use of technology in the health system, innovations in information, the increase in the number of chronic patients, the symptoms caused by diseases and the elderly population [1,2]. Nurses have to follow current approaches in care and use them in practice in order to improve the quality of care they apply. For this purpose, it will contribute to the planning of nursing interventions aimed at increasing the time allocated to care, providing individualized care, ensuring the adaptation process to the disease, reducing the symptoms caused by the treatments and increasing the quality of life in health services provided by using virtual reality glasses in nursing practices [3-5].

We aimed to shed light on the Seroprevalence of HCMV antibodies in women of child-bearing age in a tertiary care hospital and in a health science university of Bangladesh. Methods: A total of 84 apparently healthy 20-40 years old women (42 pregnant and 42 non-pregnant) were screened for anti-CMV IgG and IgM antibodies using Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). Serum levels of bilirubin, and liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase) were evaluated by biochemistry auto analyzers. Results: All the participants were found positive for anti-CMV IgG (100%) while 1 pregnant woman revealed positivity for both IgM and IgG justifying recent infection. CMV IgG antibody was found positive in 48 (68.6%) and 14 (100%) relatively younger volunteers in married (n=70) and unmarried (n=14) group respectively, and in 22 (31.4%) elderly volunteers of married group. Significantly higher mean value of Sample Optical Density (SOD) for CMV IgM was observed in pregnant than that of non-pregnant counterpart ( p =0.023; 95% CI=0.032-0.002). Again, the mean SOD of CMV IgG was significantly lower in non-pregnant women compared to that of the pregnant women in the employed group [ p =0.029; 95% CI=1.176-(-0.006)]. Conclusion: The present study demonstrates that the women of child bearing age are very much exposed to CMV infection. Pregnancy and working outside (employment) are two important risk factors for repeated exposure to infection as indicated by higher measured Optical Density (OD) for CMV IgG. A comprehensive study with a long-term follow-up of offspring born to HCMV IgM-positive mothers would provide estimates of an accurate percentage of symptomatic congenital HCMV infection in Bangladesh.","PeriodicalId":93266,"journal":{"name":"Archives of women health and care","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80687268","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}

This aimed at reviewing the literature to explore the evidence that maternal obesity can have a negative impact on breastfeeding rates. A review of the literature (academic journals) was conducted between and the PRISMA 2009 and critical appraisal approach to critically evaluate the articles and reach an evidence statement. Concerning the research question of the study, twelve research articles were considered for review. The review found maternal obesity/overweight as independent variables (defined as Prepregnancy or postpartum Body Mass Index) and breastfeeding rate as the dependent outcome variable. The majority of the studies showed evidence of a negative impact of obesity on breastfeeding rates. Therefore, to understand breastfeeding behavior among obese women, researchers could consider conducting more empirical studies that use well-established theories, including the theory of reasoned action. This review may help clinicians recognize patients who are less likely to breastfeed and consider targeting early intervention.","PeriodicalId":93266,"journal":{"name":"Archives of women health and care","volume":"52 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83609339","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}
