Abstract Endothelial function declines progressively across stages of the menopause transition; however, the mechanisms contributing to this decline are unknown. We hypothesized that differences in endothelial function among pre-, peri, and postmenopausal women are related to differences in estradiol and oxidative stress. Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) was measured in 87 healthy women categorized by menopause stage (24 premenopausal, 17 early and 21 late perimenopausal,...

Όπως αναδεικνύουν τα ευρήματα, το ποσοστό αυτό ήταν κατά 25% υψηλότερο από ό,τι για εκείνους με περίμετρο μέσης 94 εκατοστών, οι οποίοι έτειναν να βιώνουν απλώς ήπια δυσκολία στύσης. Επίσης, οι άνδρες με μεγαλύτερη περίμετρο μέσης (κοιλιά) είχαν σχεδόν 25% λιγότερους οργασμούς και ήταν λιγότερο ικανοποιημένοι...
