Cagnacci, Angelo; Cannoletta, Marianna; Xholli, Anjeza; Piacenti, Ilaria; Palma, Federica; Palmieri, Beniamino
abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether folate exerts antioxidant effects in postmenopausal women and whether this effect is related to folate-induced modification of 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (BP).

abstract

ABSTRACT Objectives: To evaluate the relation between climacteric symptoms or other risk factors for cardiovascular disease and oxidative status of postmenopausal women. Methods: Cross-sectional investigation performed at the outpatient service for the menopause at University hospital, on 50 apparently healthy women in physiological post-menopause. Whole blood free oxygen radicals (FORT), free oxygen radical defence (FORD) age, months since menopause, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist girth, waist to hip ratio (WHR), estradiol, lipids, glucose, insulin, insulin resistance (glucose/insulin and HOMA-IR), and fibrinogen were evaluated. The Greene's scale with its subscales was used to evaluate climacteric symptoms. The pulsatility index (PI), an index of downstream blood flow resistance, was determined for both the internal carotid and the brachial artery. Results: WHR (r=0.540; p<0.0001), estradiol (r=0.548; p<0.0004) and waist (r=0.345; p<0.02) were independently related to blood FORT. Score of the Greene's vasomotor sub-scale was the only parameter independently related to blood FORD (r=0.55; p<0.0001). FORT was not related to artery PI, while FORD was negatively related to the PI of both internal carotid (r=549; p<0.0001) and brachial (r=0.484; p<0.0001) artery. Discussion: In postmenopausal women, abdominal adiposity and hypoestrogenism increase oxidative stress. Climacteric symptoms, particularly vasomotor symptoms, markedly reduce antioxidant defences. Lower antioxidant defences are associated with higher resistance to blood flow of great arteries. In women early after the menopause, visceral fat, hypo-estrogenism, and climacteric symptoms may increase the risk for cardiovascular disease.

2014 - Modification of blood pressure in postmenopausal women: role of hormone replacement therapy [Articolo su rivista]
Cannoletta, Marianna; Cagnacci, Angelo
abstract

The rate of hypertension increases after menopause. Whether estrogen and progesterone deficiency associated with menopause play a role in determining a worst blood pressure (BP) control is still controversial. Also, studies dealing with the administration of estrogens or hormone therapy (HT) have reported conflicting evidence. In general it seems that, despite some negative data on subgroups of later postmenopausal women obtained with oral estrogens, in particular conjugated equine estrogens (CEE), most of the data indicate neutral or beneficial effects of estrogen or HT administration on BP control of both normotensive and hypertensive women. Data obtained with ambulatory BP monitoring and with transdermal estrogens are more convincing and concordant in defining positive effect on BP control of both normotensive and hypertensive postmenopausal women. Overall progestin adjunct does not hamper the effect of estrogens. Among progestins, drospirenone, a spironolactone-derived molecule, appears to be the molecule with the best antihypertensive properties.

abstract

BACKGROUND/AIMS: To investigate the independent importance of different types of pelvic pain on quality of life and depressive symptoms. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed on patients with pelvic pain. A 10-cm visual-analogue scale (VAS) was used to investigate intensity of intermenstrual pelvic pain, dysmenorrhea or deep dyspareunia. The SF-36 form and the Zung Self-Rating Scale for Depression (SDS) were used to investigate quality of life and depressive symptoms, respectively. RESULTS: The final study group consisted of 248 patients, 175/248 (70.6%) with intermenstrual pelvic pain, 46/248 (18.5%) with dysmenorrhea and 27/248 (10.9%) with deep dyspareunia associated or not with dysmenorrhea. Mean VAS score for dysmenorrhea was higher than that for deep dyspareunia (p < 0.003) and intermenstrual pelvic pain (p < 0.0001). Women with intermenstrual pelvic pain had the worst SF-36 (p < 0.0001) and SDS (p < 0.002) scores. SF-36 was independently and inversely related to intermenstrual pelvic pain (CR -1.522; 95% CI -2.188 to -0.856; p < 0.0001), and less strongly to dysmenorrhea (CR -0.729; 95% CI -1.487 to 0.030; p = 0.06). Indeed, only the physical component summary of SF-36 was independently related to dysmenorrhea (CR -0.956; 95% CI -1.783 to -0.129; p = 0.024). The SDS score was independently related only to intermenstrual pelvic pain (CR 0.573; 95% CI 0.241-0.904; p = 0.0008). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with intermenstrual pelvic pain have the worst SF-36 and SDS scores. Intermenstrual pelvic pain seems to be more strongly associated with a reduced quality of life and depressive mood.

2009 - High-dose short-term folate administration modifies ambulatory blood pressure in postmenopausal women. A placebo-controlled study. [Articolo su rivista]
Cagnacci, Angelo; Cannoletta, Marianna; Volpe, Annibale
abstract

In humans low intake or low levels of folate are related to elevated homocysteine (Hcy) or blood pressure (BP). This study was performed to test whether in healthy postmenopausal women a 3-week administration of folate (5-methyltetrahydrofolate: 5-MTHF) at the dose of 15 mg/day (n=15), was, in comparison to placebo (n=15), capable of modifying 24-h ambulatory BP, along with Hcy and insulin metabolism. Placebo did not modify any parameter. 5-MTHF significantly decreased nocturnal systolic (-4.48+/-1.8 mm Hg; P=0.029), diastolic (-5.33+/-1.3 mm Hg; P=0.001) and mean (-5.10+/-1.1 mm Hg; P=0.005) BP, in a way that was significantly different from that observed during placebo. 5-MTHF also reduced Hcy (11.77+/-1.15 vs 8.71+/-0.50 micromol/l; P=0.03), and insulin resistance, evaluated by HOMA-IR (2.58+/-0.04 vs 2.03+/-0.04; P=0.01). Whether maintained in the long term, 5-MTHF's cardiovascular and metabolic effect may contribute to primary cardiovascular prevention of postmenopausal women.

abstract

Surgical menopause, in particular ovariectomy, is often assimilated to physiological menopause, although the endocrine environmentis different in the two conditions. Ovariectomy in premenopause induces a greater risk for osteoporotic fractures, for cardiovasculardiseases, but also for anxiety, depression, reduced libido, reduced verbal memory and possibly cerebral degenerative diseases. Ovariectomyafter the menopause may also be associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. Thus, consequences of ovariectomyshould be taken into account when proposing preventive ovariectomy for estrogen related diseases but mainly when proposed for theprevention of future ovarian neoplasm in non at risk women undergoing surgery for benign uterine diseases. In hysterectomized womenthe possibility to administer estrogens without progestins, furnishes advantages on mood, on the risk of breast cancer, and likelyon cardiovascular risk. Estrogen therapy is efficacious in preventing osteoporotic fractures and in decreasing the risk of cardiovasculardiseases. Androgen co-administration may be useful for reduced libido. Prior to perform an ovariectomy woman should be accuratelycounselled about the long term risk of the procedure and the possibility to perform an adequate prevention of these risks by estrogenand eventual androgen administration.Key words: menopause; ovariectomy

2008 - Incremento Ponderale e Modificazioni del Metabolismo Glucidico [Articolo su rivista]
Cagnacci, Angelo; Zanin, Renata; Simona, Caretto; Anna De, Toni; Cannoletta, Marianna; Volpe, Annibale
abstract

The perimenopause is characterized by hormonal modifications, such as decreased/absent levels of progesterone associated with high/normal levels ofestrogens. Estrogen levels become very low after the menopause. The progesterone deficit is probably associated with a reduced energy expenditure,and therefore to an accumulation of energy as fat store. Very high or very low levels of estrogens may, by contrast, reduce insulin sensitivity and favourfat disposition in the abdomen. Hormonal variations of the perimenopausal period can be implicated in the modification of body composition thatcan represent risk factors for the development of chronic pathologies in postmenopausal women.

abstract

In healthy postmenopausal women, E-2 plus norethisterone acetate (1 mg + 0.5 mg) or tibolone (2.5 mg) similarly modify flow-mediated endothelium-dependent vasodilatation. The effect is dependent on baseline vasodilator reserve, with low values being augmented by either treatment.
