abstract="Experiencing intimate partner violence and childhood sexual abuse are linked with mental and physical health outcomes that are &quot;larger in magnitude and more extensive than previously reported,&quot; a study published in Nature Medicine found.   Women who were sexually or physically abused by their partners had a 63% increased risk of major depressive disorder and a 35% increased risk of abortion or miscarriage, according to the analysis of 229 studies. Experiencing sexual abuse as a child was linked with a 45% increased risk of alcohol use disorder and a 35% increased risk of self-harm.   It's estimated that 1 in 3 women globally experience physical or sexual violence from a partner while 20% of young women and 10% of young men have been sexually abused. Despite that, &quot;violence against women and children continues to be a neglected area within global health,&quot; researchers wrote.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
