Comparison of leptin and estrone levels between normal body mass index and obese menopausal women.

Postmenopausal women often experience hormonal changes and shifts in fat composition, affecting weight gain and obesity. Understanding the link between hormones, especially estrogen and leptin, is key to managing weight and lowering disease risk in menopausal women. The aim of this study was to compare the levels of leptin and estrone in menopausal women with normal weight and obesity.

Role of serum estradiol and C-telopeptide on musculoskeletal pain in menopausal women.

Musculoskeletal pain is one of the common symptoms of menopause syndrome throughout the world. Estradiol is the most potent and abundant derivative of estrogen and is associated with musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, and depressed mood during the menopausal transition. C-telopeptide is a molecule released during osteoclastic bone resorption and degradation of type I collagen, which is reported to have higher levels in individuals with musculoskeletal pain.

Correlation between serum vitamin D levels and bone mass density evaluated by radiofrequency echographic multi-spectrometry technology (REMS) in menopausal women.

Osteoporosis is a common condition associated with an increased risk of bone fractures due to fragility. Bone mineral density (BMD) is lower in menopausal women due to estrogen deficiency, age-related decline in osteoblast function, decreased calcium absorption, and reduced synthesis of vitamin D, which lead to osteoporosis. The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between serum vitamin D levels and BMD assessed using radiofrequency echographic multi-spectrometry technology (REMS) in menopausal women.
