Abstract:
This study examines the mediating role of personal initiative in the relationship between social capital and women's self-employment in Mbarara City, Uganda. The inquiry was driven by the persistent gender gap in economic participation and the growing importance of self-employment as a pathway to women’s economic empowerment in developing contexts. Grounded in Social Capital Theory and Gender Role Theory, the study conceptualizes personal initiative as a dynamic force that channels the benefits of social capital into tangible entrepreneurial action.

Abstract:
Since the results of the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study were published in 2002, millions of women and their healthcare practitioners have had to re-examine decisions about the use of hormone replacement therapy. This level one descriptive study explored the characteristics of menopausal women who could not tolerate estrogen withdrawal and continued taking hormone replacement therapy despite findings of risk published in the Women's Health Initiative. The sample included the medical records of 1,195 patients in a single-physician OB-GYN practice in northeast Florida. All records of women

INTRODUCTION: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of death in the United States. It can lead to hospitalization, disability, mortality and decreased quality of life. Abnormal hemoglobin concentration (anemia or higher than normal level) has been proposed as a potential risk factor for CVD. However, it has not been tested in general postmenopausal women using large perspective study method. The overall objective of this dissertation is to examine the association between abnormal hemoglobin concentration, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), and cardiovascular outcomes in postmenopau

Women who seek emergency treatment for abortion complications—bleeding, infection, and injuries to the reproductive tract system—should be a priority group for reproductive health care programs. These women often receive poor-quality services that do not address their multiple health needs. They may be discharged without counseling on postoperative recuperation, family planning (FP), or other reproductive health (RH) issues. Women who have had an induced abortion due to an unwanted pregnancy are likely to have a repeat abortion unless they receive appropriate FP counseling and services. Preven

While this is an essential step toward improving women’s conditions, the realities are more complex. Beyond the economic contributions of such entrepreneurial activities, oth
