Reproductive history in women with abdominal aortic aneurysms

Abstract: These findings suggest that women with larger AAA reach menopausal age earlier, and this could influence an earlier onset of aneurysmatic disease or an increase in aneurysm growth. The true role of endogenous estrogen in aneurysm development and expansion is yet to be investigated.

“…34 Finally, a caseecontrol study using validated questionnaires showed that women with AAA !5 cm had menopause at a younger age than women with AAA <5 cm, without relationship to HRT, suggesting that a shorter period of sex hormone production, as a consequence of lower menopausal age, is related to an earlier development of AAA or increased growth rate. 35 Protein expression in women and men in AAA. As for protein studies, a small caseecontrol study (16 women and 18 men with AAAs !5.5 cm and 20 women with AAA <5.5 cm) found higher plasma levels of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) in women compared with men with equivalent large AAAs, suggesting a sex difference in proteolytic activity of the aortic wall, whereas the levels of estradiol were lower in women compared with those in men.…”

“…Results demonstrated smoking as a risk factor for AAA while diabetes was protective, but an interesting aspect of this study was the segregation of women who had an AAA ≥5 cm versus <5 cm that showed diferences in onset of menopause. Women who had large AAAs were approximately 2 years younger at age for menopause than those women who had smaller AAAs [25]. These data suggest that ovarian hormones may play a role in protection from large AAA development.…”

“…An interesting study examined 140 Swedish women with an AAA compared to the same number of women with peripheral arterial disease (non-AAA) [25]. Results demonstrated smoking as a risk factor for AAA while diabetes was protective, but an interesting aspect of this study was the segregation of women who had an AAA ≥5 cm versus <5 cm that showed diferences in onset of menopause.…”

“…Данные о гендерных различиях патогенеза, клинико-анатомической картины, характера послеоперационных осложнений как при открытых, так и при эндоваскулярных вмешательствах фрагментарны и во многом противоречивы. В то же время известно, что у женщин, в сравнении с мужчинами, риск разрыва АИСА в 3-4 раза выше, средний диаметр аневризмы аорты на момент разрыва меньше [2,4,7,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18], а результаты планового и экстренного хирургического лечения хуже [4,5,9,[11][12][13][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Так, в одном из исследований, включавшем в себя более 23 000 больных с АИСА, установлены статистически значимые гендерные различия уровня госпитальной летальности при плановых открытых и эндоваскулярных операциях (у женщин -6,9 и 1,8 %, а у мужчин -4,0 и 0,7 % соответственно).…”

“…Кроме того, табакокурение, приводя к раннему наступлению менопаузы и снижению продукции эстрогенов, является значимым фактором риска развития АИСА у женщин [32][33][34]. Многими исследователями [4,17,[32][33][34] отмечается связь табакокурения и ранней менопаузы с развитием сердечно-сосудистых заболеваний у женщин. Так, некоторые авторы [17] приводят данные о более раннем возрасте наступления менопаузы у женщин с АИСА диаметром 7 см и более по сравнению с женщинами с малыми АИСА и женщинами, страдающими поражением периферических артерий, что косвенно свидетельствует о протективном эффекте женских половых гормонов, препятствующем развитию и прогрессированию аневризмы.…”
