Abstract This paper sets out a simple non‐cooperative model of resource allocation within the household in developing countries that incorporates domestic violence as vehicle for enhancing bargaining power. We demonstrate extent faced by women is not necessarily declining their reservation utilities, or increasing spouses’. Using National Family Health Survey data India 1998–99, we isolate effect on female autonomy, taking into account possible endogeneity through choice appropriate...
Abstract In the United States, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) experience more adverse health outcomes report mistreatment during pregnancy birth care. The rights to bodily autonomy consent are core components high‐quality To assess experiences coercion nonconsent for procedures perinatal care among racialized service users in we analyzed data from Giving Voice Mothers (GVtM‐US) study. Methods a subset analysis full sample 2700, examined survey responses participants who...
Analyses of factors that determine quality perinatal care consistently rely on clinical markers, while failing to assess experiential outcomes. Understanding how model and birth setting influence experiences respect, autonomy, decision making, is essential for comprehensive assessment quality.We examined responses (n = 1771) an online cross-sectional national survey capturing in the United States. We used validated patient-oriented measures scales four domains experience: (1)...
Introduction: Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADs) are the most common complications during perinatal period. There is limited understanding of gaps between need provision comprehensive health services for childbearing people, especially among racialized populations. Methods: The Giving Voice to Mothers Study (GVtM; n=2700), led by a multistakeholder, Steering Council, captured experiences engaging with services, including access, respectful care, systems' responsiveness across...
Despite a rapidly growing economy and rising income levels in India, improvements child malnutrition have lagged. Data from the most recent National Family Health Survey reveal that infant young feeding (IYCF) practices recommended by WHO Indian Government, including timely introduction of solid food, are not being followed majority mothers India. It is puzzling even among rich households children fed adequately. The present study analyses socioeconomic factors contribute to this phenomenon,...
To examine the barriers and facilitating factors for seeking treatment childhood diarrhoea to determine main causes delay in treatment.Data from Indian Demographic Health survey 2005-06 (NFHS-III) were used. Mothers asked whether their children (<5-years) had suffered during 2 weeks preceding survey. Data collected on time of after start illness days waited seek started. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed find determinants at health facility responsible 'delay'...
Aim: To examine the role of maternal diet in determining low birth weight (LBW) Indian infants. Methods: Data from National Family Health Survey (2005–06) were used. Multivariate regression analysis was used to analyse effect on infant weight. Results: Infants whose mothers consumed milk and curd daily [odds ratio (OR), 1.17; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.06–1.29]; fruits (OR, 1.20; CI, 1.07–1.36) or weekly 1.13; 1.02–1.24) had higher odds not having a baby. The consumption pulses beans...
This study sought to describe the current use of simulation-based medical education (SBME) in neurology training programs across United States.
Timely diagnosis is crucial for the successful treatment of a serious medical condition like brain hemorrhage. Deep learning algorithms have shown great promise in applications image analysis, identification hemorrhages. The goal this study to assess how well various deep can detect Using suitable dataset, evaluates computational efficiency, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity selected algorithms. results demonstrate potential models assist physicians identifying potentially fatal they...
In this article we analyze whether US antidumping (AD) duties in the agricultural sector are effective restricting trade. More specifically, does imposing an duty restrict imports of named commodity or deflected from countries AD petition to not petition? We find that have significantly restricted commodities petition. However, our results also indicate that, unlike manufacturing US, there was little trade diversion towards Our is a plausible protectionist policy agriculture sector.
Although people of low socioeconomic status (SES) and certain racial groups are at greater risk developing diabetic macular edema (DME), the extent these high-risk experience treatment differences is unknown. This study characterizes anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) injection use for DME.Data were collected from an electronic health record Cole Eye Institute, Cleveland Clinic Foundation patients who received anti-VEGF DME between 2012 2019 (N = 500).White on average more...
We estimate the degree of trade diversion from provinces named under Softwood Lumber Agreement (SLA) to not named. Our regression results indicate that SLA had a significant impact on exports non-named provinces. Controlling for other factors, by itself would have increased these four times. The corresponding effect in is estimated at minus 5 percent. This decrease not, however, statistically significant.
In this paper we investigate whether antidumping (AD) actions in the Indian pharmaceutical industry have restricted trade from countries that were named to be dumping, or was diverted other not these petitions. We found no evidence of diversion. It is bad news for consumers, as a restrictive policy translates into higher prices importing good. country where only 30% population can afford access modern drugs, effect due AD laws must carefully evaluated.
In this paper we analyze whether U.S. Anti-Dumping (AD) duties in the agricultural sector are effective restricting trade. More specifically, does imposition of an antidumping duty restrict imports named commodity or is there a diversion supply from countries petition to not petition? We find that AD have had significant impact on commodities petition. However, our results also indicate that, unlike manufacturing US, was little trade towards Our plausible protectionist policy Agriculture sector.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This study characterizes the impact of race, ethnicity, insurance status, and geographic location on anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) use for treatment diabetic macular edema (DME). PATIENTS METHODS: is a retrospective cohort study. The American Academy Ophthalmology Intelligent Research in Sight Registry was queried patients diagnosed with DME who received at least one anti-VEGF injection between 2012 2020 ( n = 203,707). Multivariate regression...
In this article, we analyze whether the Softwood Lumber Agreement between United States and Canada imposed significant economic costs on industries that use softwood lumber in States. To ascertain impact, an event study. Our study analyzes variations stock prices of lumber‐using firms listed at major markets We find news events leading to had negative impacts using lumber. The average reduction for our sample was approximately 5.42% over all considered. (JEL F13, F23)

In particular, the role alcohol, condom use number sex partners highlighted as being significant prevalence HIV. Multivariate logistic regressions were used analyse latest cross-sectional population-based demographic health survey Zambia (2007). included socioeconomic variables serostatus consenting (N = 4434).

Canada has the oldest antidumping (AD) regime in world and to this day been counted among main users of AD measures. It is an important trade-remedy instrument that affects a relatively large proportion Canadian imports, although its use effects on trade could still be better understood. For example, 2003 there were 92 measures place affecting around C$1.3 billion worth imports. An question whether imposing duties actually protects domestic industry from import competition.
