“…A systematic review including evidence from five studies found that smokers were 1.4 times more likely than non-smokers to have severe symptoms of COVID-19 and were around 2.4 times more likely to need mechanical ventilation, to be admitted to an intensive care unit or to die compared with non-smokers [ 32 ]. Thus, the higher risk-taking behavior in men than in women, including a higher prevalence of male smokers, may also contribute to sex differences in COVID-19 mortality [ 31 , 33 , 34 ].…”

Summary Aim To examine the magnitude of sex differences in survival from the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Europe across age groups and regions. We hypothesized that men have a higher mortality than women at any given age but that sex differences will decrease with age as only the healthiest men survive to older ages. Methods We used population data from the Institut National D’Études Démographiques on cumulative deaths due to COVID-19 from February to June 2020 in 10 European regions: Denmark, Norway, Sweden, The Netherlands, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Portugal. For each region, we calculated cumulative mortality rates stratified by age and sex and corresponding relative risks for men vs. women. Results The relative risk of dying from COVID-19 was higher for men than for women in almost all age groups in all regions. The overall relative risk ranged from 1.11 (95% confidence interval, CI 1.01–1.23) in Portugal to 1.54 (95% CI 1.49–1.58) in France. In most regions, sex differences increased until the ages of 60–69 years, but decreased thereafter with the smallest sex difference at age 80+ years. Conclusion Despite variability in data collection and time coverage among regions, the study showed an overall similar pattern of sex differences in COVID-19 mortality in Europe.

“…Data is coded as the percentage of yes responses. We included these control variables because they are all meaningfully correlated with traits, values, and the outcome variables (e.g., Inman et al, 2017; Ng, 2015; Riahi et al, 2018; Ruck et al, 2018; Saroglou, 2002; Saroglou et al, 2004).…”

In the present research, we investigate whether cultural value orientations (CVOs) and aggregate personality traits (Big-5) predict actual levels of alcohol consumption, smoking, and obesity across 50 countries using averages derived from millions of data points. Aggregate traits explained variance above and beyond CVOs in obesity (particularly neuroticism and extraversion), while CVOs explained variance beyond aggregate traits in alcohol consumption (particularly harmony and hierarchy). Smoking was not linked to aggregated traits or CVOs. We conclude that an understanding of the cultural correlates of risky health behaviors may help inform important policies and interventions for meeting international sustainable development goals.

Vermeulen et al (2018) A research paper, concluded that to increase the process of women empowerment in sub Saharan African and Asian countries, there should be availability of increased health services for poor women controlling birth rates, controlling maternal mortality ratios, the process of women empowerment can be promoted (Matro, Martin, Wolf, Shah, & Mahadevan, 2018;Riahi, Mohammadi, Rohani, & Bidkhori, 2018).…”

The study is carried to identify the main socio economic cultural and political view determinants of women empowerment in the developing countries. The highest determination of the study is to analyze and identify the variables through which the process of women empowerment can be measured. This study is based on secondary data and reported to analyze the empowerment factor of women in 124 developing countries, the data was ordinal in nature and randomly selected from the population. The main investigation of this research study to analyzed the relationship of women fertility, socioeconomic and political factor on the women empowerment. After conducting a cross sectional study for the most recent period, the findings of study show that the main deterrents towards women disempowerment are attributed as high fertility rates, high maternal mortality, gender inequality, lack of female"s access towards education, health and economic opportunities, lack of leadership and decision making qualities. It is found that a patriarchal culture is equally responsible for women in sufferings and disempowerment. However, democracy and democratic culture can contribute well in upgrading the process of women empowerment in developing countries.
