Compared to male patients, sexual health remains poorly studied in women and sexual gender minority (SGM) patients with cancers. This national study addresses this.

The article examines the longitudinal changes in socioeconomic differences in fruit and vegetable (F&V) consumption among a cohort of ageing Finnish women transitioning to statutory retirement. 

This transdisciplinary study, through health, feminist, and infrastructural geographical lens, examines how gender health inequalities may have emerged or worsened during Covid-19 in the UK. 

International Women's Day highlights both women's achievements and ongoing efforts toward global gender equality. Gender disparities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) affect a country's innovation and ability to tackle global challenges. Therefore, recent national education policies have looked for ways to promote gender equality, particularly in the STEM subjects.

Analysis of the research used as a basis for clinical guideline development underscores the insufficient consideration of sex and gender in the primary evidence base informing the 2019 ESC guideline recommendations for chronic coronary syndromes. The underrepresentation of women in cardiovascular research and guideline development poses challenges for accurately discerning possible sex- and gender-specific effects and tailoring recommendations to diverse patient needs. Addressing these gaps requires explicitly integrating sex and gender considerations into study designs and guideline creation processes and promoting inclusivity to optimize clinical care provision and improve outcomes for all individuals affected by ischemic heart diseases.

The main public health implication of all the available evidence is that COVID-19 vaccination is to be recommended to all women of reproductive age, especially those intending to become pregnant within a year.

Pre-conception vaccination, particularly with mRNA vaccines, is associated with significant reductions in adverse pregnancy outcomes.

This is the first study to demonstrate the impact of endometriosis on adipose tissue in women, affecting browning and inflammation pathways in visceral fat.

The study highlights significant socioeconomic status and gender inequalities in mental health and premature mortality among young people, underscoring the need for early preventive interventions.

The number of women referred to a clinic with pregnancy-associated cancer will increase as NIPT providers will be able to better recognize malignant-suspicious NIPT from foetal aneuploidy screening. Reporting malignancy suspicious-NIPT results may be a step forward in detecting cancers and could enable an earlier diagnosis and start of cancer therapy, especially for haematological malignancies and advanced solid tumours.
