Notes:	Pilger and Watts use recently published data on the global prevalence of intimate partner homicide and the global prevalence of intimate partner violence (IPV) to formulate a table which estimates the homicide rate in women exposed and not exposed to intimate partner violence. In comparing the two groups of women, they note that the highest risk of homicide linked to IPV occurs among women living in southeast Asia and in high income countries. They recommend that future research examines these findings, investigates variation among the world regions and links the findings to violence against women policy.
