Age at Menopause, Leukocyte Telomere Length, and Coronary Artery Disease in Postmenopausal Women - PubMed

Age at Menopause, Leukocyte Telomere Length, and Coronary Artery Disease in Postmenopausal Women - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37489536/

Earlier age at menopause is associated with shorter LTL, especially among women with natural menopause. Accelerated telomere shortening may contribute to the heightened cardiovascular risk associated with premature menopause.

Conclusion: Earlier age at menopause is associated with shorter LTL, especially among women with natural menopause. Accelerated telomere shortening may contribute to the heightened cardiovascular risk associated with premature menopause.

Menopausal transition in multiple sclerosis: relationship with disease activity and brain volume measurements

Source : https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fneur.2023.1251667/abstract

Background: Recent evidence has shown a significant association between menopause and multiple sclerosis (MS) progression. This study investigated the possible role of menopause in influencing MS from clinical and neuroradiological...

Discussion: Menopause may be an adverse prognostic factor of MS. Our preliminary results suggest that menopause may facilitate cortical GM atrophy, probably due to a decline in the neuroprotective effects of estrogen, with negative effects on MS evolution.

Experience and severity of menopause symptoms and effects on health-seeking behaviours: a cross-sectional online survey of community dwelling adults in the United Kingdom - BMC Women's Health

Source : https://bmcwomenshealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12905-023-02506-w

Background Almost all women will experience menopause, and the symptoms can have a severely detrimental impact on their quality of life. However, there is limited research exploring health-seeking behaviours and...

Conclusion: This study highlighted a strong willingness of women aged 35–70 to participate in group consultations for menopause, with motivation being strongest amongst premenopausal women. Low awareness of self-management and lifestyle interventions to manage the symptoms of menopause highlight the need for greater outreach, research and...

Association between SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and healthcare contacts for menstrual disturbance and bleeding in women before and after menopause: nationwide, register based cohort study

Source : https://www.bmj.com/content/381/bmj-2023-074778

Objectives To evaluate the risks of any menstrual disturbance and bleeding following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in women who are premenopausal or postmenopausal. Design A nationwide, register based cohort study. Setting All...

Conclusion: Weak and inconsistent associations were observed between SARS-CoV-2 vaccination and healthcare contacts for bleeding in women who are postmenopausal, and even less evidence was recorded of an association for menstrual disturbance or bleeding in women who were premenopausal. These findings do not provide substantial support for a...
