Охрана здоровья женщин и состояние является весьма сложной и трудной проблемой для развивающихся и промышленно развитых странах так. Женщины сталкиваются с огромными препятствиями — предубеждение, остракизм, насилие в семье, бедность, голод и практически не имеют доступа к медицинской помощи и спасения жизни медикаменты. Здоровье женщин и центр образования, посвященный здоровью женщин и благосостояния во всем мире. Его веб-сайт, WomensHealthSection.com для образовательных целей, между США и развивающимися странами: взаимной выгоды и взаимного уважения. Мы поддерживаем и помочь проектов / программ в области охраны здоровья женщин, образования и научных исследований. Мы верим: На этом направлении усилия никогда не идет в отходы, а не провал. Каждый год более 500 000 женщин умирают во время беременности или родов, и менее чем 10 миллионов детей умирают, не дожив до своего пятого дня рождения-почти 40% из них в первый месяц жизни. Но практика показывает, что по крайней мере, 6 миллионов из этих жизней можно спасти ежегодно, доказавших, экономически эффективных мероприятий. Наша концепция: мир, где все женщины и дети получали помощь им нужно жить здоровой, плодотворной жизни. Наша цель: инвестировать средства в доставку и заранее матерей, новорожденных и детского здоровья, и тем самым поставить 50% от 60-бремя страны «на пути» к достижению ЦРТ 4 и 5 на 5 лет. Что мы делаем? Здоровье женщин и центр образования (WHEC) выступает за гендерное равенство в сфере здравоохранения и образования для женщин и девочек во всем мире. WHEC приносит внимание, каким образом биологические и социально-культурных факторов, влияющих на здоровье женщин и мужчин, мальчиков и девочек.

WHEC посвящен пути, что гендерная проблематика, как социальной конструкции, влияет на здоровье мужчин и женщин. Но мы также понимаем, что гендерное неравенство выше сказывается на здоровье женщин в связи с дискриминацией, которой они сталкиваются практически в каждой культуре. Гендерное неравенство усугубляет вредное воздействие бедности и отсутствия образования по вопросам охраны здоровья женщин, что препятствует возможности миллионы женщин во всем мире получить доступ к медико-санитарной помощи и достижения наилучшего возможного уровня здоровья. WomensHealthSection.com обучение медицинских работников по поводу условий, которые являются исключительно женщины, более распространена среди женщин, или диагностируется или относиться по-разному у женщин по сравнению с мужчинами.

Наиболее проницательные и наводящий на размышления статей теперь доступны в одном портале. Все WHEC Практика Сообщения обзор от 18 до 24 месяцев после публикации, и изменениями, подтвердил, или отозвано. Почему пол и состояние здоровья? Оба гендерных различий и неравенства между мужчинами и женщинами могут привести к неравенству между мужчинами и женщинами в состоянии здоровья и доступе к медико-санитарной помощи. Например: Женщина не может получить необходимые медицинские услуги, поскольку нормы в своей общине предотвратить ее от поездки в одиночку клинику. Подростковая мальчик умер в результате несчастного случая, поскольку в попытке оправдать для сверстников ожиданий, что молодые люди должны быть «смелый» риск-воспроизведения. Замужняя женщина контракты с ВИЧ, поскольку социальные стандарты поощряют мужа неразборчивость при одновременном предотвращении ее от настаивать на использовании презервативов. Страны, смертность от рака легких среди мужчин намного превышает соответствующий показатель для женщин, поскольку курение считается привлекательным маркер мужественности, в то время как с неодобрением, как unfeminine у женщин. В каждом из этих случаев, гендерные нормы и ценности, и в результате поведения, отрицательно влияющие здоровья. В самом деле, гендерного изображения в определенное время и место может быть одним из главных препятствий — иногда самое важное препятствие — стоял между мужчинами и женщинами и достижения благосостояния.

The Women’s Health and Education Center (WHEC)’s policy on competing interests: Competing interests arise when authors, reviewer, or editors have personal, commercial, political, academic or financial interests that are not fully apparent and that may influence their professional judgment on a paper’s content or suitability for publication. The WHEC recognizes that the desirable expertise of authors, writers and reviewers also makes them prone to acquiring competing interests in their subject area. The WHEC also requires authors, editors and reviewers to disclose their competing interests, upon submission or review of a paper for any section of the journal. Authors’ competing interests statements will be taken into consideration when a final decision is made to accept or reject a paper, but will not stand as the only criterion for rejection without the editors first seeking further clarification from the authors. The WHEC asks reviewers to decline the invitation to review a paper if they feel that they may have a conflict of interest that would impede their objectivity, and to declare any potential competing interests when accepting the invitation to review. The editors and editorial advisers are obliged to declare any competing interests to WHEC, and preclude themselves from handling papers in such interests collide. The WHEC’s usual time span on conflict of interests is for three years preceding the disclosure, but authors, reviewers and editors are asked to declare any relevant competing interests that they may have outside of this period. In addition, The WHEC requires that authors explicitly state all sources of funding for research or writing activities. This information should be included in the acknowledgements section of the paper, and the methods section of the paper should include the role of the funding source as regards the design, execution, and analysis of the study, and the decision to submit the paper for publication. Submitting and Publishing Clinical Trials on WomensHealthSection.com: The registration of all interventional trials is a scientific, ethical and moral responsibility. This will improve research transparency and will ultimately strengthen the validity and value of the scientific evidence base.

All human trials that are phase 2a and above must be registered with a clinical trial registry of World Health Organization (WHO); available at: http://www.who.int/ictrp/en or National Institutes of Health (NIH), United States; available at: http://clinicaltrials.gov/ Authors should provide the name of the trial registry, the registry URL, and the trial registration number at the end of the abstract.
