TL;DR: Estrogen alone or in combination with a progestin improves lipoproteins and lowers fibrinogen levels without detectable effects on postchallenge insulin or blood pressure and in women with a uterus, CEE with cyclic MP has the most favorable effect on HDL-C and no excess risk of endometrial hyperplasia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meta-analyses of the relation between silicone breast implants and the risk of connective-tissue diseases.

Journal ArticleDOI
