Sociodemographic and Clinical Aspects of Climacteric Syndrome of Menopause in the City of Kati in Mali Involving 113 Women

Objective: This paper aims to study the sociodemographic and clinical aspects of menopausal climacteric syndrome in the city of Kati in Mali. Patients and Methods: This was a quantitative descriptive and cross-sectional study, conducted in the city of Kati from February 1 to July 31, 2021. We included 112 menopausal women. Women were selected from a household survey using the sampling step. We were interested in conjugal, family and professional life, self-esteem and the state of health of women in general. Results: More than half of the women in our study were already postmenopausal (52.2%);the mean age was 50.5 years with the extremes ranging from 41 to 62 years. The majority of them were married (69.9%), housewives (43.4%) and Bambara (53.1%). The most common climacteric syndromes were: joint pain (65.5%), hot flashes (62.8%) and night sweats (56.6%). Genital-urinary syndromes (42.5%) were dominated by decreased libido (41.7%), urinary disorder (23%) and vaginal dryness (14.6%). Genitalia-urinary syndromes increased the frequency of disagreements;Pearson’s Chi-square = 33.63;ddl = 1;P = 0.001. There was a statistically significant relationship between night sweat, genital-urinary syndromes, joint pain, and increased disease frequency with, respectively: Pearson’s chi-square = 4.660;ddl = 1;P = 0.031;Fisher’s exact test, P = 0.001, Pearson’s Chi-square = 8.434;ddl = 1;P = 0.004. There was no statistically significant relationship between climacteric syndrome and family life, work life and self-esteem. Changes in the professional relationship between women and their co-workers included, respectively: arguments (50%);disagreements (25%) and disobedience (25%). Conclusion: Menopause deteriorates the quality of life of women who suffer in silence, hence the need to pay special attention to them.

Management of genitourinary syndrome of menopause in breast cancer survivors:An update

There is increasing attention about managing the adverse effects of adjuvant therapy(Chemotherapy and anti-estrogen treatment)for breast cancer survivors(BCSs).Vulvovaginal atrophy(VVA),caused by decreased levels of circulating estrogen to urogenital receptors,is commonly experienced by this patients.Women receiving antiestrogen therapy,specifically aromatase inhibitors,often suffer from vaginal dryness,itching,irritation,dyspareunia,and dysuria,collectively known as genitourinary syndrome of menopause(GSM),that it can in turn lead to pain,discomfort,impairment of sexual function and negatively impact on multiple domains of quality of life(QoL).The worsening of QoL in these patients due to GSM symptoms can lead to discontinuation of hormone adjuvant therapies and therefore must be addressed properly.The diagnosis of VVA is confirmed through patient-reported symptoms and gynecological examination of external structures,introitus,and vaginal mucosa.Systemic estrogen treatment is contraindicated in BCSs.In these patients,GSM may be prevented,reduced and managed in most cases but this requires early recognition and appropriate treatment,but it is normally undertreated by oncologists because of fear of cancer recurrence,specifically when considering treatment with vaginal estrogen therapy(VET)because of unknown levels of systemic absorption of estradiol.Lifestyle modifications and nonhormonal treatments(vaginal moisturizers,lubricants,and gels)are the first-line treatment for GSM both in healthy women as BCSs,but when these are not effective for symptom relief,other options can be considered,such as VET,ospemifene,local androgens,intravaginal dehydroepiandrosterone(prasterone),or laser therapy(erbium or CO2 Laser).The present data suggest that these therapies are effective for VVA in BCSs;however,safety remains controversial and a there is a major concern with all of these treatments.We review current evidence for various nonpharmacologic and pharmacologic therapeutic modalities for GSM in BCSs and highlight the substantial gaps in the evidence for safe and effective therapies and the need for future research.We include recommendations for an approach to the management of GSM in women at high risk for breast cancer,women with estrogen-receptor positive breast cancers,women with triplenegative breast cancers,and women with metastatic disease.

Solid State Vaginal Laser for the Treatment of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause: A Preliminary Report

Background: Genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM) is the new term for vulvovaginal atrophy (VVA). The condition is relevant in more than 50% of women, having an adverse impact on quality of life and sexual relationships. Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of a new type of non-ablative laser, Solid State Vaginal Laser (SSVL), for vaginal tissue regeneration and rejuvenation. Method: Eighty participants with GSM symptoms were treated with a total of 4 treatments in about two months (every 15 - 20 days) of a non-ablative SSVL (LASEmaR 1500TM-EUFOTON). A cumulative intensity of GSM symptoms using a 10-cm VAS (dryness and/or burning and/or dyspareunia), the vaginal health index (VHI), the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI) were evaluated. Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF) and vaginal bioptic samples were also collected. Results: Improvement following the SSVL was observed on VHIS, VVA symptoms and sexual female function. This finding was also ratified by the improvement of vaginal histological features. After the SSVL treatment, almost all patients (91%) affected by urinary incontinence obtained the complete remission of symptoms. Conclusion: The objective evaluation of VHIS, FSFI and ICIQ-UI SF scores and the histological results indicates a real favorable effect of SSVL on GSM and on urinary incontinence.

Acupuncture Treatment of Menopausal Syndrome

Case HistoryMs. Li, aged 51 years, a staff member from a certain university in Beijing, paid her first visit on Feb. 17,2003, with the chief complaint of irregular menstrual cycle for more than 2 years.

Effect of self prescription for nourishing liver and kidney combined with tibolone on hormone levels, lipid metabolism and immune response in women with menopausal syndrome

Objective:To study the effect of self prescription for nourishing liver and kidney combined with tibolone on hormone levels, lipid metabolism and immune response in women with menopausal syndrome.Methods: Patients with menopausal syndrome who were admitted in Hebei Weichang County Hospital between April 2014 and March 2017 were selected as the research subjects and randomly divided into to the combined group who accepted self prescription for nourishing liver and kidney combined with tibolone therapy and the control group who accepted tibolone monotherapy. The serum levels of sex hormones, lipid metabolism and immune cytokines were detected before treatment and3 months after treatment.Results: 3 months after treatment, serum E2, HDL-C, Omentin-1, VaspinC, IL-4 and IL-10 levels of both groups of patients were significantly higher than those before treatment while LH, FSH, TC, TG, LDL-C, Rsistin, IFN-γ and IL-2 levels were significantly lower than those before treatment, E2, LH and FSH levels were not significantly different between the two groups, serum TC, TG, LDL-C, Rsistin, IFN-γ and IL-2 levels of combined group were significantly lower than those of control group while HDL-C, Omentin-1, VaspinC, IL-4 and IL-10 levels were significantly higher than those of control group.Conclusion: Self prescription for nourishing liver and kidney combined with tibolone is equivalent to tibolone monotherapy in regulating the sex hormones, and more significant than tibolone monotherapy in improving the lipid metabolism and immune response in patients with menopausal syndrome.

Menopausal Status and Metabolic Syndrome in Women in Climacteric Period Treated at a Clinic in Southern Brazil

Background: This study aims to understand the relationship between menopausal status and the presence of Metabolic Syndrome in women from 40 to 65 years, as well as to describe the distribution of each component of Metabolic Syn- drome according to sample characteristics. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 551 women treated at a clinic in southern Brazil. MetS and its components were defined according to NCEP-ATP III and menopausal status as pre, peri, and post-menopause. Prevalences of menopausal status and of MetS and its components were calculated. Estimates of prevalence ratios crude and adjusted with confidence intervals of 95% were calculated by Poisson Regression with robust variance. Demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and reproductive characteristics were considered as potential confounding factors in multivariable models based on a conceptual framework of MetS determination. Results: The prevalence of Metabolic Syndrome in the sample was 56.1% (CI95%: 51.9 to 60.2), being more common among older women (56 to 65 years), with low education, menarche 11 years old, with three or more pregnancies and in the post-menopausal period. In multivariate analysis, there was an increase of prevalence ratios when comparing perimenopause and post-menopause with pre-menopause;however, the confidence intervals include the unit. Regarding the analysis of isolated components in the sample, the most prevalent altered components were: hypertension (84.8%;CI95%: 81.7 to 87.8), waist circumference (66.4%;CI95%: 62.5 to 70.4) and HDL cholesterol (51.7%;CI95%: 47.5 to 55.9). There was a linear increase on mean blood glucose through menopausal status. Conclusions: Our study indicates variation on the distribution of MetS and each component according to menopausal status and other women characteristics. Future studies on MetS should also have foresight to use this type of approach to improve understanding and targeting of actions and programs focusing on women in this period of life.

Sleep Disorders in Menopause: Review of the Literature and Occurrence through Menopausal Stages

We here review principal literature data about sleep disorders in menopause and we compared it with data obtained from a systematical screening of a sample of 161 menopausal women through questionnaires and clinical evaluation. Our data reveal high occurrence of sleep disorders in this group of women if compared to literature data about general population, in the absence of statistically significant differences among the three menopausal stages: we find only a trend toward a higher risk of OSAS (Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome) in PM versus early PM and MT. However, none of women in our survey underwent PSG (polysomnography), essential to confirm the diagnosis of OSAS and none was diagnosed with RLS (Restless Legs Syndrome) (prior to our survey) by the Gynecologist or General Pratictioner: these data reveal the issue of too low attention towards sleep disorders in this contest. Generic “sleep complaints” are clearly associated with depressed mood and worse-quality life along the menopausal process. In our sample, a non-specific definition of insomnia shows a peculiar relationship with a mood disorder: it is only variable not associated with higher BDI and KI scores, in fact. This might suggest that the conditions linked to depression of these women could be more specific sleep disturbances, such as RLS and OSAS.

Experience of Menopause for Women in the Niamey Region, Republic of Niger

Introduction: Menopause is poorly documented in Africa. For most of the women living there, the experience of this period does not seem to be very problematic. For women living in rural areas, other concerns are more prominent. Methods: The study was prospective, quantitative and qualitative about 500 cases collected over a period of 6 months. The study involved postmenopausal women in the Niamey region of public services, in certain residential areas, or accompanying people in health structures. Parameters taken into account were sociocultural, antecedents, experience, knowledge, and management of menopause. The data was entered and analyzed using Microsoft Office Word 2010 and Microsoft Office Excel 2010 software. Results: The average age was 56.4 years with extremes of 40 and 80 years;57% were still living with their husbands and 39% widows;60.2% housewives;53% uneducated, 17% have higher education;60.2% had had at least 6 children and 39.6% had used contraception. The comorbidities observed were arterial hypertension (24.4%) and diabetes (7%). As for the representation that women made of menopause, for all of them, this stage is the beginning of old age. The most frequent signs were asthenia (86.2%) and mood disorders (70.6%). Almost all of the patients (99.8%) had not used hormonal treatment for the menopause and among them 27% the management of the menopause was with traditional means. Conclusion: Menopausal disorders are certainly a reality in our socio-cultural context. They are not a primary concern either through ignorance or resignation of the women concerned.

Discussion on the mechanism of TCM treatment of climacteric syndrome based on TCM inheritance assistance system and network pharmacology

Background:To explore the law of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of climacteric syndrome,and to study the potential mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine therapy.Methods:For the relevant prescriptions collected from Chinese Journal Full-text Database,Wanfang medical network,PubMed and EMBASE were transferred to the traditional Chinese medicine inheritance assistant system(TCMISSV2.5)to conduct the nucleocentric drug group analysis.In this study,we used BATMAN-TCM(http://bionet.ncpsb.org/batman-tcm/)online analysis tool to analyze Therapeutic Target Database disease enrichment and Kyoto Gene and Genome Encyclopedia(KEGG)pathway enrichment,and Cytoscape(3.7.1)software was used to construct disease-target and KEGG pathway-target networks for visualization.Results:Among the 103 prescriptions,3 pairs of core drug combinations and 9 new prescriptions were selected by data mining.In the KEGG pathway of Zhimu(Anemarrhenae rhizoma)and Huangbo(Phellodendri Chinensis cortex),the most potential targets were found in the neural active ligand receptor interaction pathway.Conclusion:The compatibility of Anemarrhenae rhizoma and Phellodendri Chinensis cortex may play a role in the treatment of nervous system symptoms in patients with climacteric syndrome by interfering the neuroactive ligand receptor interaction signaling pathway.

郭志强教授基于“脾肾互赞”理论论治绝经综合征经验

中医妇科学者普遍认为绝经综合征核心病机在于肾阴虚,而郭志强教授总结临床经验后发现患者肾阴阳俱虚者多见,且脾胃不足者亦不少。故提出临证须注重脾肾同治,以“脾肾互赞”为理论依托,着重健补脾胃,发挥脾肾相赞功能,在补益精血、温补阳气、安神定志等重要治疗方向上发挥疗效。本文总结了郭志强教授基于“脾肾互赞”理论论治绝经综合征的经验。

单核细胞计数/高密度脂蛋白胆固醇及促甲状腺激素对绝经期女性急性冠脉综合征患者预测价值及与冠状动脉病变相关性研究

背景既往研究发现单核细胞计数、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)、促甲状腺激素(TSH)与急性冠脉综合征(ACS)相关,然而单核细胞计数/高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(MHR)与ACS发病的相关性研究较少,绝经期女性MHR、TSH与ACS发病是否存在关联仍不明确。目的探讨MHR、TSH对绝经期女性ACS患者发病的预测价值,并研究上述指标与患者冠状动脉狭窄程度的相关性。方法选择2020—2021年在苏北人民医院心血管内科住院诊治并行冠状动脉造影的325例绝经期女性作为研究对象。通过电子病历系统收集患者一般资料,研究对象入院后采集静脉血检测单核细胞计数、总胆固醇(TC)、三酰甘油(TG)、HDL-C、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、TSH等。以双平面Simpson法测量左心室射血分数(LVEF),通过冠状动脉造影术观察冠状动脉病变情况。采用Gensini评分标准统一衡量冠状动脉病变情况。符合ACS诊断标准的患者为ACS组(n=184),非ACS者为对照组(n=141)。同时依据Gensini评分三分位数将ACS组进行分组:≤36.5分为低危亚组(n=59),36.6~66.5分为中危亚组(n=64),>66.5分为高危亚组(n=61)。采用单因素及多因素Logistic回归分析探究ACS的影响因素。绘制受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线评估TSH、MHR及联合检测对ACS的诊断价值并计算ROC曲线下面积(AUC)。采用Spearman秩相关分析探究TSH、MHR及联合检测指标与Gensini积分的相关性。结果ACS组与对照组患者基线资料结果示,ACS组BMI、吸烟比例、高血压、糖尿病、LDL-C、单核细胞计数、TSH、MHR高于对照组,LVEF、HDL-C低于对照组(P<0.05)。多因素Logistic回归分析结果示,吸烟、高血压、BMI≥24.0 kg/m^(2)、LDL-C≥3.30 mmol/L、TSH≥2.1m U/L、MHR≥0.25是绝经期女性发生ACS的危险因素,HDL-C≥1.2 mmol/L为保护因素(P<0.05)。ROC曲线结果显示,MHR、TSH及联合预测指标诊断绝经期女性ACS的AUC分别为0.777(95%CI=0.725~0.830,P<0.001)、0.747(95%CI=0.694~0.800,P<0.001)、0.810(95%CI=0.764~0.857,P<0.001)。中危亚组、高危亚组MHR、TSH均高于低危亚组,高危亚组MHR、TSH高于中危亚组(P<0.05)。Spearman秩相关分析结果示,ACS组患者MHR(r_(s)=0.497,P<0.01)、TSH(r_(s)=0.498,P<0.01)及联合预测指标与Gensini评分均呈正相关(r_(s)=0.600,P<0.001)。结论TSH及MHR升高是绝经期女性发生ACS的独立危险因素,两指标及联合对病情预测具有较高的灵敏度和特异度,并与患者冠状动脉病变程度相关,对绝经期女性ACS的早期识别及风险评估具有一定的临床应用价值。

维生素E对围绝经期和绝经后妇女健康的影响

随着年龄的增长,卵巢功能由旺盛期到逐渐减退,直至衰竭,女性也将从生殖期逐渐进入老年期。这不仅会对月经周期和生育能力有影响,还会伴随着一系列身体和心理上的变化,严重时会影响生活和工作。研究发现卵巢卵泡的发育以及绝经前后出现的泌尿生殖功能异常、骨质疏松、神经认知功能障碍及心血管病变等疾病的发生发展可能与氧化应激反应有着密不可分的关系。维生素E具有抗氧化特性和稳定细胞的能力,已经被证实可在代谢综合征、骨质疏松、心脑血管、神经系统等疾病的预防和治疗方面发挥着重要作用,并且发现维生素E在一定程度上还具有模拟雌激素的作用。因此,补充维生素E对围绝经期和绝经后妇女的健康具有潜在的益处。综述维生素E对围绝经期卵巢卵泡发育、雌激素的影响和绝经综合征的预防和治疗作用,为维生素E作为改善围绝经期和绝经后妇女身心健康的辅助或替代治疗方案提供参考依据。
