Sinossi
Epidemiologists, clinicians, and basic scientists discuss established and new, acute and chronic conditions associated with menopause, in 47 papers from an international symposium held in Florence, Italy, in December 1996. They include climacteric symptoms, central nervous system afflictions, cancer, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular diseases. Their main interest is in making the latest findings available to non-specialist doctors who are either training in hospitals or practicing primary care. The topics include perspectives from Europe and the US, premature menopause, connective tissue changes, inherited risk for osteoporosis, hormone replacement therapy, and the pharmacological profile of conjugated equine estrogens.

Women's Health and Menopause: Risk Reduction Strategies

Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Despite its universality in human female aging, the menopause and its biology are not completely understood. New biologic mechanisms by which sex hormones may be detrimental or confer protection are continually being discovered. We are now starting to understand that the role of the estrogen receptor is not identical in all tissues. Important nongenomic effects for sex hormones have also been described. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) has produced effects on health risks: some are reduced, some are increased, and the rest remain uncertain. HRT is being used by an increasing number of women to alleviate climacteric symptoms in the perimenopausal period and to prevent osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease later. Positive effects on Alzheimer's disease and dementia on the one hand, and an increase in venous thrombosis on the other, are currently being reported by several groups. Both the preventive benefits and the risk of breast cancer seem to be linked to long-term and current use. HRT requires further testing through specific clinical trials, currently underway in the United States, before confident recommendations may be made about the full range of benefits and risks. 376 pp. Englisch.
