Premature Ovarian Insufficiency - an update on recent advances in understanding and management

TL;DR: Ongoing research is clearly needed to allow pre-emptive identification of the at-risk population and to identify mechanisms that if addressed in a timely manner, can prolong ovarian function and physiology.

Human amnion-derived mesenchymal stem cell (hAD-MSC) transplantation improves ovarian function in rats with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) at least partly through a paracrine mechanism

TL;DR: Human amnion-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAD-MSCs) transplantation can improve ovarian function in rats with chemotherapy-induced POI at least partly through a paracrine mechanism.

Sex-Specific Physiology and Cardiovascular Disease.

TL;DR: This chapter addresses how understanding basic mechanisms of hormone responses, imaging diagnostics, and integration of genomics and proteomics has advanced diagnosis and improved outcomes for cardiovascular conditions, apart from those related to pregnancy that are more prevalent in women.

Risks and benefits of estrogen plus progestin in healthy postmenopausal women: Principal results from the Women's Health Initiative randomized controlled trial

TL;DR: Overall health risks exceeded benefits from use of combined estrogen plus progestin for an average 5.2-year follow-up among healthy postmenopausal US women, and the results indicate that this regimen should not be initiated or continued for primary prevention of CHD.

Evaluation, Treatment, and Prevention of Vitamin D Deficiency: an Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline

TL;DR: Considering that vitamin D deficiency is very common in all age groups and that few foods contain vitamin D, the Task Force recommended supplementation at suggested daily intake and tolerable upper limit levels, depending on age and clinical circumstances.

Evaluation, treatment, and prevention of vitamin D deficiency: An endocrine society clinical practice guideline (Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism (2011) 96, (1911-1930))

TL;DR: The Task Force as discussed by the authors provided guidelines to clinicians for the evaluation, treatment, and prevention of vitamin D deficiency with an emphasis on the care of patients who are at risk for deficiency, based on systematic reviews of evidence and discussions during several conference calls and e-mail communications.

Menopause and the risk of coronary heart disease in women.

TL;DR: Data suggest that, in contrast to a natural menopause, bilateral oophorectomy increases the risk of coronary heart disease, and this increase appears to be prevented by estrogen-replacement therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Incidence of premature ovarian failure.

TL;DR: To assess the occurrence of premature ovarian failure, the age-specific incidence rates of natural menopause were determined for a cohort of 1858 women born between 1928 and 1932, and the incidence increased greatly in the age group 40 to 44.
