Pulmonary Disorders in Women
₹1,695.00This is a book reflecting women’s perspectives in lung disorders. It is an evolving concept that all systems of the body have sex-specific biological features. It is often observed that the etiology, clinical course ans response to treatment of many diseases vary between men and men. These differences are due to the differences in genes, and due to the differential exposure of hormones and environmental factors starting from the prenatal period. This is why, male and female tissues behave differently in many respects. However, sex-specific approach is not considered in majority of the situations other than for women – specific diseases. Women have different gender-specific roles in the society and hence the epidemiological and demographic characteristics of many diseases vary between men and men. Gender differences between men and women in compliance to treatment and health seeking behaviors may be major contributors of gender specific epidemiological trends.
