“…Consistent with the current study, a previous study on middle-aged women showed a negative relationship between health-promoting behaviors and menopausal symptoms 20 . Health-promoting behaviors, regarded as protective factors, play a positive role in alleviating menopausal symptoms and improving health status 37,38 . The results suggest that promoting patients' health responsibility, stress management, and spiritual growth may mitigate treatment-induced menopausal symptoms.…”

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and severity of menopausal symptoms in patients with breast cancer undergoing adjuvant endocrine therapy and explore the relationships of these symptoms with health-promoting behaviors and social support.Methods: This cross-sectional study investigated 226 participants from December 2020 to December 2021 in China. Data were collected using the sociodemographic information questionnaire, Menopause Rating Scale, the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II, and Perceived Social Support Survey. Multivariate step regression was used to analyze the potential factors of menopausal symptoms.Results: In our sample of 226 patients, 92.9% reported at least one menopausal symptom with a mean score of 13 points (interquartile range, 9-18 points). The highest prevalence of most symptoms included hot flashes/night sweats, fatigue, joint and muscular discomfort, irritability, and sleep problems. In the regression models, health responsibility (β = −0.15, P = 0.03), spiritual growth (β = −0.28, P < 0.01), friend support (β = −0.43, P < 0.01), and other support (β = −0.31, P = 0.01) were negatively associated with menopausal symptoms.Conclusions: The prevalence and severity of menopausal symptoms are high in breast cancer patients undergoing adjuvant endocrine therapy. Higher health-promoting behaviors and social support are associated with fewer menopausal symptoms. The findings highlight the clinical implications in terms of developing appropriate strategies for managing menopausal symptoms.

“…Walker and his colleagues have provided a comprehensive perspective on HPL [16], describing it as a multidimensional model of perceptions and actions, including health responsibility, physical activity, nutrition, interpersonal relations, spiritual growth, and stress management. Researchers have evaluated the level of HPL and its influencing factors in many different populations, such as older adults [17], university students [18], and postmenopausal women [19]. Some research have been conducted in people with physical diseases, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases [20].…”

Background Healthy lifestyle is an important protective factor of developing cardiovascular disease in people with schizophrenia. However, little is known about the determinants of lifestyle and its contribution to metabolic syndrome. This study aimed to explore the influencing factors of health-promoting lifestyle (HPL) and its association with metabolic syndrome among people with schizophrenia. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted in twenty-two primary health centers of Guangzhou, China between December 2022 and April 2023. A total of 538 patients with schizophrenia were recruited through convenience sampling. Self-administered scales, questionnaires, and clinical data were collected. Scales and questionnaires included social-demographic information, Health-Promoting Lifestyles Profile (HPLP-C), UCLA Loneliness Scale (ULS), and International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF). Cluster analyses were used to divide participants into two groups based on the distribution characteristics of HPLP-C scores. Logistic regression models were used to identify factors associated with HPL and the association between HPL and metabolic syndrome. Results There were 271 participants in the high HPL group and 267 participants in the low HPL group. Logistic regression analysis revealed that loneliness posed a risk factor for high HPL, while high education and moderate-vigorous physical activity served as protective factors for high HPL. Low HPL was a risk factor for the prevalence of metabolic syndrome. Conclusions Promotion of high education literacy and a physically active lifestyle should be priority targets in the health management of schizophrenia. Primary healthcare providers can play a pivotal role in assisting patients to mitigate metabolic syndrome by reinforcing healthy lifestyle strategies.

“…That implies that many women are at risk of lacking sleep for a long period. Lack of sleep increases the risk of chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and obesity, as well as the potential of comorbid anxiety and depression [5][6][7][8][9] , which is the leading cause of sedative medication in postmenopausal women, greatly increasing the economic burden [10] .…”

Background The association between age at menarche (AAM) and sleep duration has been affirmed in some studies. The majority of the subjects, however, were teenagers. Given the prevalence of inadequate sleep duration in postmenopausal women, we undertook this study to investigate the association between AAM and sleep duration in postmenopausal women. Methods The study used data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) from 2005 to 2014. Binary logistic regression models were used to assess the association between the AAM and sleep duration, and a subgroup analysis based on age, diabetes, and hypertension was performed. Results Compared to the group with an AAM < 10 years old, women with later AAM have a greater chance of adequate sleep (AAM between 10 and 12 years old: odds ratio (OR) = 2.70, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.65–4.41, P < 0.001; AAM between 13 and 15 years old: OR = 2.77, 95%CI: 1.70–4.52, P < 0.001; AAM ≥ 16: OR = 2.23, 95%CI: 1.29–3.85, P = 0.004). After we have made several different multivariate-adjusted models, the above conclusions can still be derived (P < 0.05). In women aged 61 to 71, non-hypertensive patients, and a proportion of patients with diabetes, there is no greater likelihood that other groups will get adequate sleep duration than the reference group (P > 0.05). Conclusions The effect of the AAM on sleep duration has a long-term effect. It is of great significance to avoid early AAM by actively adjusting lifestyle and other methods to prevent the shortening of sleep duration after menopause.
