Effect of 17β-estradiol on idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia and IP3/Ryn 2 expression of receptor-regulated calcium pool during peri-menopausal period / 中国生化药物杂志

Objective To observe the curative effect of 17β-estradiol on idiopathic ventricular arrhythmia (IVA) during peri-menopausal period and explore the association with IP3/Ryn expression of receptor-regulated calcium pool. Methods 32 cases IVA during peri-menopausal period (IVA group) and 32 cases healthy women during peri-menopausal period of the same levels of age (normal control group) were selected. The IVA group received oral 17β-estradiol for 2 months. The count of arrhythmia in IVA group was recorded, the IP3/Ryn 2 expression pre- and post-treatment in IVA group and normal control group were detected. Results Compared with pre-treatment, 17β-estradiol significantly reduced the occurrence of IVA (P<0.05). Compared with pre-treatment, 17β-estradiol significantly reduced IP3 expression(P<0.05), while there was no significant difference compared with normal control group. 17β-estradiol had no significant effect on Ryn 2 expression. Conclusion The anti-IVA effect of 17β-estradiol may be associated with the IP3 receptor gene expression.

Evaluation of endometrium in peri-menopausal women in case of abnormal uterine bleeding

Introduction: Abnormal uterine bleeding should include all abnormalities of menstruation like hypermenorrhea as well as hypomenorrhea. Abnormal bleeding is synonymous only with excessive menstruation. Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is one of the most common conditions for which women consult their gynaecologists. Material and methods: This was a retrospective study done in Dhiraj Hospital over a period of six month on patients presenting with AUB. Patients were selected based on clinical details. The study material included a total no. of 60 patients which were inclusive of endometrial samples. Patients with isolated endometrial causes of abnormal uterine bleeding were included for this study and those with pregnancy, profusely bleeding per vaginum, anemic patients were excluded. All specimens were transported in 10% formalin to the pathology laboratory. The gross morphology was recorded. Microscopic examination was done by two pathologist so as to reduce inter observer findings. The data collected for this study was statistically analyzed using chi-square test.

Objective To observe the effective treatment of severe in peri-menopausal syndrome,and improve the quality of life of women in perimenopausall and postmenopausal women.Methods We review the different treatment methods in the 216 patients diagnosed with moderate to severe menopausal syndrome.Group A:simple hormone replacement therapy (HT) of 60 cases.Group B:simple treatment of traditional Chinese medicine of 90 cases.Group C:hormone replacement and comprehensive therapy of Chinese medicine of 66 cases.Follow up the improvement of symptoms and adverse reactions after the treatment one and three month respectively.Results The three groups after treatment in patients with clinical symptoms were improved after three month.Efficient comparisons among third group,the differences were statistically significant (90％ (54/60),82％ (76/90),100％ (66/66);x2 =13.160,P ＜ 0.01).Adverse reactions of 3 treatment group comparison difference had statistical significance (45％ (27/60,1％ (1/90),6％ (4/66);x2 =60.720,P ＜0.01).Compared with pure hormone treatment group,treatment group of Chinese medicine,comprehensive treatment group adverse reactions happen was less,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).Chinese medicine treatment group and combined treatment group,there was no statistically significant difference (P ＞0.05).Conclusion Severe menopausal syndrome with hormone replacement therapy indications without contraindications suggestions take comprehensive treatment of traditional Chinese and Western medicine,The hormone supplement contraindications or unwilling to hormone replacement therapy,also has good effect of Chinese medicine treating.

Association of OSTA index with bone mineral density (BMD) and its comparison with calcaneal quantitative ultrasound for the prediction of low BMD in peri-menopausal Indian women.

Background: Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mineral density (BMD) and an increased risk of fractures with advancing age in postmenopausal women. BMD measurements with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) are costly and not widely available The Osteoporosis Self-Assessment Tool for Asians (OSTA) index is a simple tool based on age and body weight to predict low BMD and identify women at risk of osteoporosis. The objective was to study the association of OSTA index with BMD (T-score) and to validate OSTA index in comparison with calcaneal Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) for the prediction of low BMD in peri-menopausal Indian women. Methods: This was a prospective, cross-sectional, descriptive study carried out in department of physiology of a tertiary care teaching hospital (Navi Mumbai). Seventy two peri-menopausal women between 40 to 55 years with no previous diagnosis of osteoporosis were included. Participants’ socio-demographic detail, anthropometric measurements, OSTA index and QUS-based BMD was recorded. Pearson’s correlation test was used. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value was calculated. Results: OSTA index did not correlate with BMD in the entire samples. On subgroup analysis, OSTA index significantly correlated in a positive direction with BMD (T-score) in women in the age group of 50-55 years. OSTA index had a sensitivity of 70 %, and specificity of 84.62 % at T-score cutoff value of < -1. Conclusions: OSTA index is a simple risk assessment tool that can be used to identify women with low BMD in the age group of 50-55 years.

Relationship between peri-menopausal women blood lipid level and the gallstone disease / 中国综合临床

Objective To investigate the relationship between peri-menopausal women blood lipid level and the gallstone disease in order to provide theoretical basis for the prevention of gallbladder stone.Methods Seventy-two patients with gallbladder calculus from Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery Jinshan District Central Hospital of Shanghai and 52 healthy women coming for physical examination as the control group.Participants were divided into five age groups (20-29,30-39,40-49,50-59 and 60-69 years old) and two age stages (young period (30-40 years old) and peri-menopausal period (45-55 years old)),total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein (HDL-C),low-density lipoproteins (LDL-C) and Body Mass Index (BMI) were determined and compared between the stone group and the control group at different age stages.Results In comparison of the menopausal transition period,the stone group had significantly lower blood TC,HDL-C and LDL-C levels than the control group (TC:(4.58 ± 0.27) mmol/L vs.(5.15 ± 0.26) mmol/L,t=3.112,P ＜0.01 ;HDL-C:(1.17 ±0.11) mmol/L vs.(1.40 ±0.08) mmol/L,t =3.351,P ＜0.01 ;LDL-C:(2.71 ± 0.30) mmol/L vs.(3.15 ± 0.26) mmol/L,t =2.437,P ＜ 0.05).For the young period,there were no significant difference on blood lipid level and BMI was observed between the stone group and the control group (P ＞ 0.05).The fat HDL-C level in blood was significantly lower in the stone group in the menopausal transition period than in the young period ((1.17 ± 0.11) mmol/L vs.(1.33 ± 0.07) mmol/L,t =2.455,P ＜ 0.05).The control group had significantly higher peri-menopausal TC,TG,LDL-C levels in blood and BMI than those in the control group young period (P ＜ 0.05) ; And HDL-C level,no significant difference (TC:(5.15 ± 0.26)mmol/L vs.(4.47 ± 0.34) mmol/L,t =3.175,P ＜ 0.01 ; TG:(1.88 ± 0.39) mmol/L vs.(1.10 ± 0.24)mmol/L,t=3.066,P＜0.01;LDL-C:(3.15 ±0.26) mmol/L vs.(2.71 ±0.31) mmol/L,t =2.261,P＜0.05;BMI:(24.75±0.99) kg/m2vs.(21.73±1.11) kg/m2,t=4.217,P＜0.01).Conclnsion For perimenopausal (45-55 years old) females,decline of serum TC,HDL-C and LDL-C levels may be related to the formation of cholesterol stone.Lower HDL-C level is closely associated with formation of cholesterol stone,indicating that it may be one of the measures to prevent gallbladder stone by adjusting blood fat in perimenopausal women.

Treating cardiovascular disease in peri-menopausal period by theory of yin deficiency,blood stasis,heat-toxin / 中华中医药杂志

Cardiovascular disease in peri-menopausal period is a kind of climacteric syndrome which based on the symptoms of the cardiovascular system as the main manifestations. It is manifested as hypertension,pseudo-angina,arrhythmia. Hormone replacement therapy or symptomatic treatment is the common used method of modern medicine,although a certain degree of efficacy,but there are also significant disadvantages.
