Abstract

Menopause leads to decreased estradiol levels affecting tissue health and causing local inflammation in the genital organs and urinary tract. The rise of blood C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in menopausal women may indicate systemic inflammation associated with estradiol decline. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between serum estradiol and CRP levels on genitourinary syndrome in menopausal women. A cross-sectional study was conducted among menopausal women who had not experienced menstruation for at least 12 consecutive months at Prof. dr. Chairuddin P. Lubis Hospital, Medan, Indonesia, in 2023. Estradiol and CRP levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the presence of genitourinary syndrome was assessed using the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life (MENQOL) questionnaire. The mean levels of estradiol and CRP were compared to menopausal women with and without genitourinary syndrome with the Mann-Whitney test. To assess the correlation between estradiol and CRP levels, and between their levels with the presence of genitourinary symptoms, the Spearman correlation test was used. The genitourinary syndrome was reported in 25% of the total included menopausal women. Our data indicated that the mean estradiol levels were not significantly different between menopausal women with and without genitourinary syndrome (9.13±2.47 pg/mL vs 18.96±31.23 pg/mL, p=0.881). The mean serum CRP level of menopausal women with genitourinary syndrome (9.72±6.30 mg/L) was higher than that of women without the syndrome (2.09±1.26 mg/L) with p<0.001. In addition, serum CRP level, not estradiol, was correlated with the symptom score of genitourinary syndrome. This study highlights that to identify and manage genitourinary syndrome, monitoring of CRP levels is essential in menopausal women.

Abstract

Postmenopausal women often experience hormonal changes and shifts in fat composition, affecting weight gain and obesity. Understanding the link between hormones, especially estrogen and leptin, is key to managing weight and lowering disease risk in menopausal women. The aim of this study was to compare the levels of leptin and estrone in menopausal women with normal weight and obesity. A cross-sectional study was conducted on menopausal women, either normal body mass index (BMI) or obese, at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan, Indonesia. Blood samples were collected to measure leptin and estrone levels using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The differences in leptin levels between groups were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test, while the correlation between BMI and leptin was examined using the Pearson correlation test. The disparity in estrone levels in both groups was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test and the correlations between variables were assessed using the Spearman or Pearson correlation tests as appropriate. The mean leptin levels in normal BMI and obesity groups were 17.73±4.96 and 25.46±12.95 ng/mL, respectively, and were statistically different (p=0.006). The mean estrone levels in menopausal women with normal BMI and obesity were 943.23±391.79 and 851.38±282.23 ng/mol, respectively and were not statistically different (p=0.564). A significant positive correlation was found between BMI and leptin level (r=0.59; p<0.001), while  BMI and estrone were not significantly correlated (r=0.083; p=0.559). In conclusion, leptin level was significantly different between BMI groups and had a strong positive correlation with BMI. This finding could be an important insight in body weight management and disease risk prevention in menopausal women.

Abstract

Musculoskeletal pain is one of the common symptoms of menopause syndrome throughout the world. Estradiol is the most potent and abundant derivative of estrogen and is associated with musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, and depressed mood during the menopausal transition. C-telopeptide is a molecule released during osteoclastic bone resorption and degradation of type I collagen, which is reported to have higher levels in individuals with musculoskeletal pain. An observational analytical study with a cross-sectional design was used in this research. Estradiol and C-telopeptide levels were measured in this study using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Musculoskeletal pain was assessed using the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire (NMQ) and the Menopause Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQOL). Musculoskeletal pain was determined if the participant answered “yes” on questions number 12, 14 and 25 on the MENQOL. Data analysis was performed using the independent Student t-test for normally distributed data and the Mann-Whitney test for non-normally distributed data. A correlation test was performed using the Pearson correlation test for normally distributed data and the Spearman correlation test for non-normally distributed data. The results showed a non-significant relationship between estradiol and C-telopeptide levels with musculoskeletal pain assessed using the NMQ or MENQOL questionnaires. The correlation test also showed no correlation between estradiol and C-telopeptide levels in women with and without musculoskeletal pain.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a global health problem that attacks 1.28 billion adults aged 30-79 years. Hypertension is a chronic disease characterized by an increase in systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic ≥ 90 mmHg. Calculation of Body Mass Index (BMI) is a method for determining nutritional status in adults. An increase in the BMI value is followed by an increase in blood pressure, thus increasing the chance of developing hypertension as well as the degree of hypertension. This study aims to determine the relationship between BMI and the degree of hypertension in hypertensive sufferers at Prof. Chairuddin P. Lubis Hospital Medan. Method: This research uses a cross-sectional design and descriptive-analytical research methods. The samples for this study are 84 people obtained from secondary data of medical records and used simple random sampling techniques. The collected data is analyzed by a statistical program using the Fisher-Exact test with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: Most hypertension degrees are hypertension stage 2 and the classification of BMI is obese 1. There is a relationship between BMI and the degree of hypertension (p=0.02). Conclusion: Most of the patients are hypertension stage 2 and obese 1. There is a relationship between BMI and hypertension in hypertensive patients. It means BMI is a risk factor for hypertension.
