Estimation and probabilistic projection of levels and trends in the sex ratio at birth in seven provinces of Nepal from 1980 to 2050
Our findings imply that the majority of provinces in Nepal have low risks of SRB imbalance for the period 1980-2016. However, we identify a few provinces with higher probabilities of having SRB inflation. The projected SRB is an important illustration of potential future prenatal sex discrimination and shows the need to monitor SRB in provinces with higher possibilities of SRB imbalance
Levels and trends estimate of sex ratio at birth for seven provinces of Pakistan from 1980 to 2020 with scenario-based probabilistic projections of missing female birth to 2050
Most evidence on son preference in Pakistan is reflected in the higher child mortality among females than males. The sex discrimination before birth is rarely reported in Pakistan. This is the first study to quantify prenatal sex discrimination in Pakistan on a subnational level. We provide annual estimates of the sex ratio at birth (SRB) from 1980 to 2020 and scenario-based projections of the number of missing female births up to 2050 by Pakista…
Continuum of Mammography Use among US Women
As access to primary care providers and health insurance increases with the Affordable Care act, classification tree analyses may help to identify women of high priority for intervention
Communicating uncertainty can lead to less decision satisfaction
BACKGROUND: Given the large number of interventions of uncertain effectiveness, research on communicating uncertainty is needed to examine its impact on patients' health decisions. OBJECTIVE: To examine physicians' communication of uncertainty and its impact on patients' decisions and decision satisfaction. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: Participants included female patients seen in a breast health centre whose physicians were discussing a de…
Acute Stress Affects Heart Rate Variability During Sleep
OBJECTIVE: Although stress can elicit profound and lasting effects on sleep, the pathways whereby stress affects sleep are not well understood. In this study, we used autoregressive spectral analysis of the electrocardiogram (EKG) interbeat interval sequence to characterize stress-related changes in heart rate variability during sleep in 59 healthy men and women. METHODS: Participants (N = 59) were randomly assigned to a control or stress conditi…
Psychophysiological Reactivity and Coping Styles Influence the Effects of Acute Stress Exposure on Rapid Eye Movement Sleep
OBJECTIVE: The goal of the present study was to investigate the roles of situational (ie, psychophysiological reactivity to acute stress) and dispositional variables (ie, neuroticism, coping styles) in shaping the effects of acute stress exposure on REM sleep. METHODS: Sixty-three healthy young adults slept in the laboratory after being randomized into CTL or EXP. Measures of psychophysiological reactivity (state anxiety, stress level, and mean a…
