With the use of these data, we will look into factors such as sex, the highest prevalence rate of the top ten cancers, first-year survival rate, survival duration, and carcinoma in situ of the prevalence. This paper will also look into the effect of the insurance coverage because of the development of medical technology, and compare and contrast with laws and insurance’s terms of different countries. This paper will use Taiwan’s data to discuss the incidence rate of carcinoma and cervical carcinoma in situ, and research the time trend of the insurance cost.

A therapeutic understanding of women suffering through their bodies

Fernandes, Paula Alexandra Da Graça Marques 30 November 2004 (has links)
This study is concerned with the nature of suffering as experienced by women struggling with problems related to the body. Since the body is viewed to be integral in the formation of a woman's identity and self-concept, any illness, ailment or deficiency associated with it may lead the woman to experience pain and suffering. To explore meanings of personal suffering related to the body three contexts have been chosen. These are familial breast cancer, eating disorders and infertility. Common themes of suffering that were co-constructed in the interviews between six women participants and myself form the basis of this study. These themes emerged through the process of social constructionism and dialogue. Through the process of language, personal realities and meanings were discussed and shared to elicit a greater understanding of the nature of suffering. A qualitative approach, using the case study method, was also adopted to provide rich descriptions of the different experiences with suffering. The case study presentations illustrate the linguistic domain between the participants and myself. It is hoped that the information presented in this study will contribute to a therapeutic understanding of personal suffering as experienced by women. / Psychology / D. Litt et Phil.
