Objectives: To analyse the relationship between nocturia, age, the menopausal transition, parturition and hormone replacement treatment (HRT) in women.
Material And Methods: A questionnaire study was carried out in 3669 randomly selected women (out of 6000 invited) in the County of Jämtland, Sweden. Questions were asked about health, the occurrence of somatic diseases and symptoms, habits, health care and medication.
Results: In univariate analyses age, menopausal state and HRT, but not parturition, were associated with increased nocturia. In a multiple logistic regression analysis, independent correlates for two or more nocturnal micturition episodes versus no more than one episode were: health, poor versus good 2.9 (2.1-3.8); <5 years after the menopause versus before 1.8 (1.3-2.5); 5-9 years after the menopause versus before 2.1 (1.5-3.0); > or =10 years after the menopause versus before 3.1 (2.3-4.2). Age and HRT were deleted by the logistic regression model.
Conclusion: The present data indicate that menopausal state, but not age, parturition and HRT are independent correlates of nocturia in 40-64-year-old women.

Background: Menopause is a significant phase in women's health, in which the incidence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is significantly increased. Body fat distribution changes with age and hormone levels in postmenopausal women, but the extent to which changes in body fat distribution affect the occurrence of OSA is unclear.
Methods: This research performed a cross-sectional analysis utilizing data from the 2015-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

HIV-related mortality has fallen due to scale-up of antiretroviral therapy (ART), so more women living with HIV (WLH) now live to reach menopause. Menopausal estrogen loss causes bone loss, as do HIV and certain ART regimens. However, quantitative bone data from WLH are few in Africa.

Human skin is a physical and biochemical barrier that protects the internal body from the external environment. Throughout a person's life, the skin undergoes both intrinsic and extrinsic aging, leading to microscopic and macroscopic changes in its morphology. In addition, the repair processes slow with aging, making the older population more susceptible to skin diseases.

The determinants of hepatitis C virus (HCV) viral load remain incompletely understood and may differ in females, who are relatively protected from the consequences of HCV infection during their reproductive years. We aimed to evaluate how age affects the relationship between sex and viral load. = 922 patients (males = 497, median age 62 years), all naïve to direct antiviral agents, were studied.
