“…In a study, although it does not only include sexual violence during pregnancy, it has been shown that pregnant women without civil marriage were exposed to 2 times more physical violence than pregnant women with civil marriage. 14 In this research, exposure to sexual violence was found to be approximately two times higher in women whose educational level is eight years or less than women whose education level is nine years or more. In a study, sexual violence against pregnant women was found approximately five times higher in pregnancies with an education level of fewer than 12 years compared to pregnant women with an education level of more than 12 years.…”

“…In many studies, the educational level of the mother has been associated various health behaviors. This is explained by the fact that educated women have increased knowledge about healthcare issues, are more effective in domestic decision-making mechanisms, have a job, and thus have health insurance [11,13,14].…”

Background/Aim: In Turkey, women between 40-69 years of age are routinely subjected to mammography screening for breast cancer. Despite this, the mammography rate is only 28.9% in women aged 15 years and above. This is an indication that women in Turkey are not sufficiently interested in mammography screenings. This study aimed to determine the factors that affect the decision to not have mammography screening for women aged 40 and above. Methods: The study was designed as a hospital-focused cross-sectional study. The population of the study comprised 7,239 women aged 40 years and above. The sample size that would represent the population was calculated as 365 women with 50% prevalence, 95% confidence interval, and 5% deviation in the Epi Info program. A Chi-square test used in the binary analysis (P<0.05 was considered statistically significant); and backward LR logistic regression analysis was used in multiple analyses. Results: Based on the findings of the study, 57.0% of women did not have mammography screening. This was 2.047 times (CI: 2.341-5.841) higher among those living in rural areas when compared with women living in the city/district center, 2.639 times (CI: 1.291-3.247) higher in women with eight years or less of education as compared with those who had nine or more years of education, and 1.9 times (CI: 1.172-3.081) higher in women not informed by family doctor/family health staff (AH/ASE) when compared with women receiving information. Conclusion:The percentage of mammography screening is low in women over the age of 40. The risk factors were determined to be low education, rural areas of residence, and a lack of information provided by the family doctor.

The health impacts of intimate partner violence against women and childhood sexual abuse are not fully understood. Here we conducted a systematic review by comprehensively searching seven electronic databases for literature on intimate partner violence-associated and childhood sexual abuse-associated health effects. Following the burden of proof methodology, we evaluated the evidence strength linking intimate partner violence and/or childhood sexual abuse to health outcomes supported by at least three studies. Results indicated a moderate association of intimate partner violence with major depressive disorder and with maternal abortion and miscarriage (63% and 35% increased risk, respectively). HIV/AIDS, anxiety disorders and self-harm exhibited weak associations with intimate partner violence. Fifteen outcomes were evaluated for their relationship to childhood sexual abuse, which was shown to be moderately associated with alcohol use disorders and with self-harm (45% and 35% increased risk, respectively). Associations between childhood sexual abuse and 11 additional health outcomes, such as asthma and type 2 diabetes mellitus, were found to be weak. Although our understanding remains limited by data scarcity, these health impacts are larger in magnitude and more extensive than previously reported. Renewed efforts on violence prevention and evidence-based approaches that promote healing and ensure access to care are necessary.
