Age at menopause onset and risk of cardiovascular disease around the world.

Abstract:

:Earlier menopause onset has been linked to a greater risk of cardiovascular disease. Both menopause onset and cardiovascular disease risk vary by geographical region, race/ethnicity and socioeconomic status. As such, it is plausible to hypothesize that these factors may influence the association of menopause onset and cardiovascular disease risk. Taking a global approach, this narrative review focuses on how geographic, racial/ethnic and socioeconomic factors might influence menopause onset, mainly natural menopause, and possibly its association with cardiovascular disease risk. The contribution of genetic factors to menopause onset variation is also summarized. A clear gap in the literature has been identified. Several meta-analyses have assessed the question of whether menopause onset is related to cardiovascular disease risk by combining large populations of diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds and socioeconomic status across wide geographical regions. None of these analyses adequately assessed how these factors might modify the association of menopause onset and cardiovascular disease risk. Testing such a question requires the study of a large group of women of diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds across different geographical locations with good documentation of their socioeconomic status, clinical and environmental factors. The increasing evidence supporting age at menopause onset as a marker of overall health calls for worldwide efforts to implement a standardized approach to define age at menopause in both the clinical and the research fields.
