The menopausal transition, defined by the cessation of menstruation due to declining ovarian follicular function, results in a marked decrease in endogenous estrogen levels. This phase is associated with significant metabolic changes and a shift towards a more atherogenic lipid profile. Specifically, there are increases in total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides and unfavorable alterations in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and lipoprotein(a) levels.

Background: Earlier evidence indicated that metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) may adversely affect neonatal outcomes among patients conceiving soon after MBS, but recent studies demonstrated conflicting results, especially for new surgical techniques. Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of MBS types and surgery to birth interval on maternal, birth, and nonbirth outcomes in women with severe obesity. Setting: New York State's all-payer hospital discharge database (2008-2019).

Social protection programs (SPPs) have been established to tackle challenges from economic downturns, conflicts, and the impacts of global warming, with women and children being particularly vulnerable during these times. Programs like Child Support Grants (CSG), the Old People's Grant (OPG), the National School Nutrition Programme (NSNP), Food Parcels, Food Fortification Programmes (FFP), and Nutrition Sensitive Agriculture (NSA) show promise in alleviating food insecurity and improving nutritional health.

Objective: Historically, the medical profession is a male-dominated field. Although the number of women entering surgical specialties is rising, this increase is not proportionate to the composition of medical school graduates, which are now 50% female. This study aimed to investigate the specialty and gender of practitioners performing common vascular procedures. Methods: Medical claims data was obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

Do voter and party gender biases differently affect the likelihood that female and male candidates are nominated to and elected from equivalent list positions in national legislative elections? This paper examines the interaction between list position, gender quotas, and voter and party biases in shaping women's electoral success in Indonesia's 2024 legislative election. Using new data on nearly 10K candidates, while voter penalties against female candidates are important, our analysis finds that parties can effectively counteract these biases through strong list placement.
