摘要:

It has only recently been recognized that there are sigmfkant gender effects on heart disease and that women face increasing risks as they age. A longitudinal study of 246 older myocardial infarction (MI) patients included a 113 sample of women Findings indicate that over the first post-MI year, women had greater risk of death, cardiac distress and reinfarction. Cardiac symptoms of men declined while those of women increased. Several medical care and social disadvaatages were found among the post-MI women, including less aggressive cardiac care. Furthermore, since morbidity and mortality were related to medical care aad social disadvantages, the results support gender-age stratification theories.

摘要:

The health, distress, and health services utilization of 44 women married to army men was compared to those of 53 women living in the same community. Amy wives were found to have less access to health promoting and maintaining resources such as social support, employment, and the "sense of coherence." Although army wives' health is not signiticantly different from that of the controls, they visit the family physician with their children more often. It is suggested that women who are married to army men learn to cope with instability and with limited access to salutary factors, but the lay referral system is irreplaceable.

摘要:

Female sexual partners of injection drug users are at risk for AIDS because of their association with street drug cultures and all their concomitant risks, including their own non-injecting drug use. This study examines a model of the social determinants of HTV-associated sexual risk behaviors. Multiple Linear regression analysis was used to analyze the data for 207 female sexual partners who had never injected drugs. The findings show that crack cocaine use is the strongest conhbutor to the model, which explains fourteen percent of the variance of sexual risk behavior. The fmdings suggest that the risks associated with sexual practices are much greater for crack cocaine users than among non users of crack.

摘要:

Gender differences in perception of risk associated with use of alcohol and other drugs were assessed amone a samole of 1,244 undergraduates at a major Pacific Northwest Gversity. Reexamination of data from a self-administered questionnaire revealed that females were more likely than males to perceive greater risk with use of alcohol and other dmgs. In particular, female perceptions of risk were significantly different from males (P<.001) for most levels of alcohol use and for perception of risk for occasional use of psychedelics, heroin, and dieipills.-Our fmdings suggest the need for continued gender-specific research (and health education) in substance abuse prevention.
