Abstract:

The first Regional Conference on Women In Physics (RCWIP 2016) was organized on 25–27 April, 2016 by the working group on women in physics at the National Centre for Physics, Islamabad. We present a report of that conference along with strategies planned and recommendations passed by the participants. Starting from the motive of the working group to organizing the regional conference, we briefly discuss the status of higher education in Pakistan and problems with its accessibility to women because of gender inequality in our society. We will also discuss the social structure of Pakistan and social constraints that are deeply rooted in the cultural orientation of the people of this country.

Abstract:

We previously found that epinephrine, a mixed beta- and alpha-adrenoreceptor agonist, stimulates systemic and nonsplanchnic upper body free fatty acid (FFA) release but not lower body FFA release in healthy nonobese women. To evaluate the role of beta-adrenergic-mediated effects on this regional difference in lipolysis, we measured systemic, leg, and splanchnic FFA kinetics ([3H]palmitate) in seven healthy nonobese women before and during an intravenous isoproterenol infusion. Isoproterenol increased systemic palmitate flux (87 +/- 12 vs. 100 +/- 10 mumol/min, P < 0.05) but failed to affect leg [10.8 +/- 1.2 vs. 11.4 +/- 2.3 mumol/min, P = not significant (NS)] or splanchnic (10.8 +/- 3.2 vs. 10.0 +/- 1.8 mumol/min, P = NS) palmitate release. Upper body nonsplanchnic palmitate release increased from 56 +/- 14 to 71 +/- 10 mumol/min. Systemic O2 consumption increased (227 +/- 11 to 241 +/- 10 ml/min, P = 0.006) during isoproterenol infusion, as did leg (318 +/- 42 vs. 404 +/- 53 ml/min, P < 0.01) and splanchnic (827 +/- 104 vs. 970 +/- 108 ml/min, P < 0.05) plasma flow. These results suggest that lower body adipose tissue lipolysis in women is less sensitive or responsive than nonsplanchnic upper body adipose tissue to beta-adrenergic stimulation and that regional differences in alpha 2-adrenergic-receptor responses were not responsible for the similar regional differences we observed previously with epinephrine.

Abstract:

The article explores women’s employment and the future of work due to the changing nature of jobs as a result of the onslaught of new technologies. Adoption of new digital technologies, industry 4.0 technologies and the increasing influence of platform or gig economy has had intense effects on the ‘future of work’, causing dramatic changes. Further, COVID-19 has severely impacted the economy, especially women, reflected in the consistent fall in female labour force participation across states. The unemployment rate (UR) is significantly higher among urban women. A large proportion of woman workers are vulnerable from automation because of their low-skill and the unskilled and routine nature of their work. The risk of automation is much higher in the case of women working in manufacturing and modern services. Women in India are engaged largely in traditional jobs with low level of education and skill, and having limited or negligible social security, particularly in the unorganised sector. The article is based on the secondary data provided by the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) and uses the International Labour Organization (ILO) skill framework. The analysis clearly shows that skill sets among women is abysmally low. Noticeably, enhancing skill development as per the emerging market demand, including digital literacy, will go a long way to expand job opportunities for women.

Abstract:

Gender is a process for ensuring that women and men have access to and control over resources, obtain development benefits and make the same decisions at all stages of the development process and all government projects, programs and policies (Inpres 9/2000 concerning PUG in National Development). ). Gender equality in development policy is a significant indicator, because gender equality will strengthen a country's ability to develop, reduce poverty and govern effectively. The defense of women's rights began to take effect with the formation of WOMEN in DEVELOPMENT (WID) and is a solution to the problems of Third World women. However, after running for ten years, this program received strong criticism from feminist activists. Because it is considered as a propaganda tool for the First World Agenda to dominate Third World Countries. WID's main agenda is how to involve women in development activities. Because according to him the cause of backwardness of women is because they do not participate in development.

Abstract:

Purpose of the study: to determine the regional characteristics of the health indicators of pregnant women on the basis of integral assessment of extragenital pathology, complications and adverse consequences of pregnancy. Materials and methods. A comprehensive retrospective analysis of regional characteristics and dynamics of the main indicators of pregnant women’s health in Ukraine for the period 2010–2019 was carried out. According to the Center for Medical Statistics of Ukraine integral assessment (IA) of pregnant women’s health was carried out according to the generally accepted calculation method using integral indicators of the extragenital pathology frequency, pregnancy complications and its adverse consequences.Results. Health of pregnant women remains unsatisfactory with multidirectional trends in the frequency of individual pathologies in recent years. Simultaneously with a downward trend against the background of a high level of anemia and genitourinary system diseases (24.73 and 14.38 per 100 pregnant women in 2019, the rate of decline was 6.29% and 1.74%), gestosis, preeclampsia and eclampsia (6.57, 2.11 and 1.2%, 9.48%), not carrying a pregnancy, delivering a dead fetus (5.84, 0.43 and 15.92%, 9.3%), the incidence of circulatory system diseases and thyroid gland dysfunctions (7.61, 9.88, growth rate 18.7%, 2.33%) is increasing. Incidence of diabetes in pregnant women in Ukraine rapid increases in 10.4 times (0.17 per 100 pregnant women in 2010 and 0.77 in 2019). High regional differences in the frequency of different pathologies of pregnant women were revealed. The difference between the highest and lowest rates of circulatory system diseases in 2019 was 23.9 times, diabetes mellitus – 12.6 times, thyroid diseases – 5.4 times, genitourinary system diseases – 4.3 times, anemia in pregnant women – 3.4 times, and complications and adverse effects of pregnancy – 2.4–4.7 times. The analysis of the IA of the health status of pregnant women according in 2019 revealed that the level of health was higher than the average in Ukraine in Ivano-Frankivsk (65.5%), Zaporizhzhya (72.82%), Odesa (75.5%), Zakarpattia (76.5%), Lviv (81.1%), Sumy (81.3%), Luhansk (84.3%) and Ternopil (84.4%) regions, and low than the average level in Dnipropetrovsk (132.35%), Poltava (123.1%), Chernivtsi (118.0%), Chernihiv (111.7%) regions and Kyiv (117.1%). Conclusions. Developed toolkit for the IA of pregnant women’s health makes it possible to provide an objective assessment of pregnant women’s health in general and for individual components in the context of regions as a means of timely identification of problems that require intervention and effective management decisions to minimize risk factors that cause impaired health in pregnant women.

Abstract:

The study attempts to empower ordinary women writers from the region who are considered to be in the peripheries. The bibliographic building of the foremost Ilokano women writers of Nueva Vizcaya who remain unaccounted and missing in Philippine literature will promote the woman presence in the nation and their place in Philippine literature, while the criticism of their retrieved and collected published short stories written in the vernacular, Iluko, will intensify the relevance of Iluko as regional literature and as a language. Consequently, the study will contribute to the growing body of feminist studies and literary criticism in the Philippines today. Results of the study showed that these four Ilokano women writers who are unknown and neglected in the region and in Philippine literature have a significant socio-cultural impact and contributed to the refinement, enrichment, and general development of their language and literature; literature being the grandeur of language and language the carrier of culture. The short stories of the Ilokano women writers present the unique Ilokano ways, traditions and cultures and the concepts of Ilokano woman and womanhood embedded with their traditional images and representations but also claim the idea of equality between man and woman. It might be construed that Ilokano women and the women writers were not fully contaminated at all with the patriarchal ideology and don’t adhere and have bent and even dismantled patriarchy, or even the attempt to overcome and change this ideology. The Ilokano women writers showed through their short stories, that they have sustained their unique cultural identity despite the impact of colonization. The general awareness and recognition of these regional women writers and their literary pieces would bring a ripple effect to the younger women of the region who would continue to change and overcome the tainted image of the third world regional women writer and women in general, and bringing them no longer to the peripheries but to the center.

Abstract:

Background. Currently in developed countries, up to 4 % of pregnant women have cardiovascular diseases, which are one of the leading causes of maternal mortality. Anesthesia method have an important role in the abdominal delivery in this category of patients. Objective. To summarize the experience of different anesthesia approaches to abdominal delivery in pregnant women with cardiovascular diseases.Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of the use of various methods of anesthesia during abdominal delivery of pregnant women with cardiovascular diseases was performed.Results. In “Maternity Hospital № 13” and the Almazov National Medical Research Centre for the period from 2014 to 2018 2140 abdominal deliveries were carried out in pregnant women with heart diseases (1450 and 690, respectively). In the Maternity Hospital №13 1374 (94.8 %) of abdominal deliveries were performed under regional anesthesia, 76 (5.2 %) under general anesthesia. In Almazov National Medical Research Centre 513 (74.3 %) of abdominal deliveries were performed under regional anesthesia, 177 (25.7 %) under general anesthesia. The features of the hemodynamic profile of general and regional anesthesia in pregnant women with various heart disease are presented.Conclusion. In pregnant women with heart disease, up to 88 % of cesarean section are performed under regional anesthesia. General anesthesia is used for contraindications to regional anesthesia, as well as for obstetric indications. The use of advanced monitoring, methods of slow titration of local anesthetic dose and the use of vasopressors allow to avoid hemodynamic disorders in patients with concomitant heart disease.

Abstract:

The article describes the process of establishing mechanism for preventing, punishing and eliminating violence against women in the European region and outlines the main components of such mechanism. The main non-binding Council of Europe instruments on violence elimination against women, namely the Declaration on Policies for Combating Violence against Women in a Democratic Europe (adopted at the 3rd European Ministerial Conference on Equality between Women and Men (Rome, 21-22 October 1993) and Council of Europe Committee of Ministers Recommendation Rec(2002)5 to member states on the protection of women against violence are analyzed. The key developments of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence are characterized. It has been found that in the Convention, the phenomenon of "woman" and "femininity" is disclosed through the category of gender, but not through purely sexual biological traits. Both the concept of gender based violence and cross-border approach to violence against women have been considered. The main obligations of States with regard to the protection of certain categories of women who may be victims of violence due to their particular status, such as migrant women and refugees, are also discussed in the article. The main aspects of substantive law norms of the Convention have been analyzed. The monitoring mechanism of the Istanbul Convention, which consists of Committee of the Parties and the Group of Experts on Action against Violence against Women and Domestic Violence, has been described. It has been found that the case law of the European Court of Human Rights plays an important role in developing effective mechanism for combating violence against women. The high-profile case of the ECHR concerning the issue of violence against women (Opuz v. Turkey, 2009) has been discussed. A brief overview of the legal framework on violence against women in Ukraine has been provided. Key directions for the improvement of the Ukrainian national mechanism for combating violence against women have been suggested.

Abstract:

Migration in the Mediterranean region has increased greatly during the last years. Reports and studies reveal that violence and injuries among refugees and migrants is a common occurrence in the WHO Europe Region. Available literature indicates that sexual violence incidents take place: (a) during the migratory journey to the host country, (b) while in detention centers, (c) once migrants have reached their destination, and (d) during the period in which a woman is subject of trafficking. This manuscript explores how sexual violence against refugee/immigrant women is presented in the international literature; a narrative review of the literature was conducted on the phenomenon of migration in the Mediterranean area, and specifically on sexual violence of migrant women. In order to face the challenges faced by migrant women victims of sexual violence, the following policies are suggested by international literature: (a) offer emergency medical and health care to sexual violence survivors, which is usually relatively limited, (b) offer mental health care and psychological support for sexual violence when planning services to provide clinical care, and (c) work towards the aim of transforming norms and values in order to promote gender equality and support non-violent behaviours.

Abstract:

The paper argues that regional idiosyncratic factors may contribute to determining the labor force participation (LFP) preferences of married women. Analyzing data across metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) for 1980, the study initially finds no significant regional differences in the “gross” means of reported labor force participation (LFP) rates of married women in the U.S. It reveals substantial regional disparities, however, once the usual arguments of the LFP function are accounted for. In particular, the LFP equation exhibits marked structural differences across regions, providing support for the above hypothesis of regional “social economy.”

Regional authonomy and desentralisation are the momentum for local government to implementation shariah by law. By using the Islamic discources and “Serambi Madinah” narrative, local government and Islamic organizations force the practice of sharia by law into daily life. Starting from controlling women’s bodies and sexuality in public has limit the interaction and relation with waria. Women slowly have a distance to waria. The customer of waria’s salon are gradually decrasing. Moreover, gender waria category is contested among the Muslim groups. Waria seems always in dilemma that make them potentially vulnerable to get violence and marginalization. Waria present starts to be limited in public, they cannot expreassing themselves as “Muslim women” in formal setting because their gender category isn’t exist.

Abstract:

Gender Watch is a strategy to advocate policy that is based on pro-women data. Gender Watch is developed to improve access and participation of poor and marginalized women to government social protection. The improvement of access started with the development of poor women capacity and organizing in grass root level with the establishment of Women School in Gresik Regency. In this school, women collect data, work with many stakeholders, submit the obtained data to the policy maker, and oversee the Regional Development Planning Forum (Musrenbang) in the village up to the regency. The work and the contribution of Women School in development force the Gresik Regional Government to be committed to allocate the budget for Women School and to replicate Women School in several villages. The commitment of the regional government is included in Mid-Term Regional Development Plan (RPJMD), City Work Plan (RKPD), and Regent’s regulation. The paper outlines the process and the experience of organizing in the grass root level and the data-based advocacy effort, so the policy advocacy strategy that stresses on the organizing of the grass root women through women schools, attracts the attention of the regional government to allocate the budget in the village level up to the regency level.

Abstract:

Current commentary on non-manual employment suggests that we are moving into an era of ‘contingent careers’ where current performance is the only valid criterion for reward and advancement. New-style jobs may be intensive and insecure, it is argued, but they are also less freighted with gender-based assumptions. Newspaper journalism, with its lack of bureaucratic organization, varied tasks, tradition of high employee mobility, and deep-seated belief in meritocracy would seem to fit well within this model. Interviews with women working in the UK regional press indicate, however, that the occupation is less egalitarian that many in the industry believe. Newspaper organisations and status hierarchies continue to be built around ‘hard news’, despite the commercial importance of other elements of content. Consequently management experience in newsgathering is a key stage in promotion, but this work as currently structured is incompatible with primary domestic responsibility for dependants. Even those without such concerns, or with limited ambitions, find the intensified work règime in today's regional press hard to sustain. Considering why these working practices have remained largely unchallenged, the paper identifies five contributing factors. The epistemological individualism characteristic of women and well as men in journalism, a culture of vocation, the construction of editorial power as charismatic rather than bureaucratic, the commonsense populist style of most regional papers and, not least, journalists’ own entrenched belief in the contingent nature of their employment combine to make the profession particularly resistant to acknowledging structural barriers to advancement.

Abstract:

SummaryA retrospective review was carried out on the methods of obstetric analgesia/anesthesia used in 80 pregnancies amongst 63 women with inherited bleeding disorders (19 factor XI deficiency, 16 carriers of haemophilia, 15 von Willebrand disease, seven platelet function disorders, four factor VII deficiency, one factor VII and XI deficiency and one factor X deficiency). In 72 pregnancies, the woman was seen antenatally in a multidisciplinary clinic to discuss and plan pain relief options. Regional block was performed for 41 pregnancies. The mothers were known to have a bleeding disorder in 35 of these pregnancies. Prophylactic cover was given in 10 pregnancies prior to the insertion of regional block but not required in the remaining 25 pregnancies because the coagulation defects had spontaneously normalised at term. There were six reported adverse effects from regional block similar to that found in the general population: inadequate anesthesia/analgesia (2), bloody tap (2), hypotension and a possible dural puncture which was treated conservatively. There were no reports of long-term complications. The findings show that it is possible to offer women with inherited bleeding disorders the option of regional block provided their coagulation defects have normalised, either spontaneously during pregnancy or following adequate haemostatic cover.

Abstract:

The sufferings of women in the society and other acts of discrimination against women resulted in the rise of women or feminist movements worldwide especially in the Northern countries of the globe. As a result of the dehumanization of women in most communities of the world, many activists and women movements evolved to proffer solutions to women and gender issues. This paper examined the contributions of international, regional, national and local women’s movements to development. The paper delved into the Waves of Feminism which made various changes and resulted in major freedom and development for women in education, family life, health wise, employment and politics. It looked at the importance of women to economic development. Various women’s movements and networks were discussed. Challenges of these women’s movements were identified and recommendations were made. The paper employed secondary sources for information for the study.

Abstract:

As Regional integration continues to grow in Africa, trade is one of the factors that contribute to regional integration. In trade, mainly informal trade contributes to a large extent to regional integration in the cross-border areas. This study focused on the contributions of Tanzanian women in the form of informal trade to regional integration in the East Africa region. In spite of widely conceived variables promoting trade across Africa, women’s contributions have been rather neglected or undermined. Therefore, this study aimed to elicit various contributions of women to informal trade in Tanzania. It also analyzed different bottlenecks impending trade facilitations across trans-borders of Tanzania: security issues, financial challenges and payment of customs duties. Primary and Secondary data was be collected and analyzed from secondary sources through descriptive statistics (simple percentage).

Abstract:

Regional cerebral blood flow was measured by the 133-xenon inhalation method during resting in 38 healthy men and 38 healthy women matched pairwise for age in the range 18–72 years. The results showed 11% higher global flow level in the women in all ages. A similar and significant regression of flow by age was seen for both sexes. The regional flow distribution also showed some sex-related differences. Frontal regions showed an asymmetry in the men with higher values on the right side. The female flows were more symmetric. As a hypothesis, it is suggested that the higher flow level in women may be a systemic phenomenon. In fact, other authors have found a higher cardiac index in females. The sex differences in regional flow pattern might be due to differences in the functional organization of the cortex and/or to differences in the mental processes of the “resting” state.

Abstract:

Women’s fertility decision is quite difficult in male-dominant rural culture due to their poor reproductive autonomy. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in rural community of Bangladesh between November 2017 and February 2018 among 1285 respondents selected by multi-stage stratified sampling to explore regional variations of rural women’s fertility control behavior and its determinants using hierarchical and other inferential statistics. Data collection was done by face-to-face interview using questionnaire. Average parity was 2.5 per woman and 41% respondents had three or more children. About 60% of them used modern contraceptives (MCs) and oral contraceptive pill (OCP) was their first choice. Male participation in contraceptive use was less than 5%. Regional variation, women’s empowerment, fertility control knowledge, family planning (FP) attitude, social influence, perceived behavioral control (PBC) and fertility intention were significant predictors of fertility control behavior (p < 0.05). Significant regional variations were determined in fertility control behavior of rural women (p < 0.05). Almost all of its predictors explained by Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) also showed significant regional variations (p < 0.05). Current fertility control policy should be strengthened more not only to improve fertility behavior of rural women but also to establish regional equity in fertility control by improving their reproductive decision-making in a rational way.

Abstract:

In the development, women should be in the same rate as men to participate, have an equal chance in decision making, and reach the development needed to maximize their potential. Despite this, women often got a difficulty to participate in the economy. Women often do unpaid work or work in the informal sector. The higher portion of women to men employed in the informal sector represent women difficulty to access the employment, because of higher rates of illiteracy, lower jobs skills, lower level of education, and social-cultural barrier that prevent women to work in the formal sectors. This paper wants to analyze how the increase of women participation in the economy can increase the Indonesia’s economic growth. Using data from 34 province in Indonesia between 2014-2018, the result of the panel data regression found that the number of women’s empowerment positively affect gross regional domestic product. Women’s life expectancy positively affects gross regional domestic product. Women’s population percentage positively affects gross regional domestic product. From the three independent variables used as a predictor in this model, all variable is significantly affects Indonesia’s gross regional domestic product.

Abstract:

This study investigates determinant factors of fertility among married women in Ethiopia, the second most populous country in Africa with rapid population growth. The data used for the analysis was obtained from the 2014 Ethiopia Mini Demographic and Health Survey which was carried out by the Central Statistical Agency. A generalized linear model (GLM) analysis was carried out to investigate the effect of socioeconomic and demographic factors on the number of children ever born by a married woman of age 15-49 years. High fertility was independently associated with residing in urban areas, increased household economic status, younger age at first birth and not using contraceptives. Current age and media exposure, household head gender and media exposure, household head gender and regional state, motherâ€™s education and, regional state and media exposure and regional state were found to jointly affect fertility level.

Abstract:

Although body fat distribution strongly predicts metabolic health outcomes related to excess weight, little is known about the factors an individual might exhibit that predict a particular fat distribution pattern. We utilized the meal fatty acid tracer-adipose biopsy technique to assess upper and lower body subcutaneous (UBSQ and LBSQ, respectively) meal fat storage in lean volunteers who then were overfed to gain weight. Meal fatty acid storage in UBSQ and LBSQ adipose tissue, as well as daytime substrate oxidation (indirect calorimetry), was measured in 28 nonobese volunteers [ n = 15 men, body mass index = 22.1 ± 2.5 (SD)] before and after an ∼8-wk period of supervised overfeeding (weight gain = 4.6 ± 2.2 kg, fat gain = 3.8 ± 1.7 kg). Meal fat storage (mg/g adipose tissue lipid) in UBSQ ( visit 1: 0.78 ± 0.34 and 1.04 ± 0.71 for women and men, respectively, P = 0.22; visit 2: 0.71 ± 0.24 and 0.90 ± 0.37 for women and men, respectively, P = 0.08) and LBSQ ( visit 1: 0.60 ± 0.23 and 0.48 ± 0.29 for women and men, respectively, P = 0.25; visit 2: 0.62 ± 0.24 and 0.65 ± 0.23 for women and men, respectively, P = 0.67) adipose tissue did not differ between men and women at either visit. Fractional meal fatty acid storage in UBSQ (0.31 ± 0.15) or LBSQ (0.19 ± 0.13) adipose tissue at visit 1 did not predict the percent change in regional body fat in response to overfeeding. These data indicate that meal fat uptake trafficking in the short term (24 h) is not predictive of body fat distribution patterns. In general, UBSQ adipose tissue appears to be a favored depot for meal fat deposition in both sexes, and redistribution of meal fatty acids likely takes place at later time periods.
