AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
During menopause, some women experience symptoms which can interfere with their living quality. Some of these symptoms are the so-called vasomotor symptoms which include suffocations, hot flashes, and nocturnal sweats. Up to now, the most effective remedy was hormone treatment, but a study of isoflavines, such as soybean, suggests it is possible to alleviate the disturbances caused by menopause. Due to this study we consider that the addition of isoflavines can provide benefits to women. Therefore, it is correct to include them in the field of medicines which give an alternative to estrogen therapy. However, one must bear in mind that data about the efficiency and security of alternative medicines in the treatment of menopause symptoms are not conclusive since each woman is unique and it is necessary to have consensus on an individualized health plan which permits one to carry out adequate therapeutic adjustments in accordance to the needs which occur over the entire menopause process.

Arteriolar Elasticity Measurement in the Fingertip Based on Photoplethysmographic Volume-Oscillometry: A New Approach to the Assessment of Vasomotor Functions in the Microvasculature.
Cardiovasc Eng Technol

Department of Research and Development, Nonprofit Organization of Research Institute of Life Benefit, Sapporo, Hokkaido, 005-0006, Japan.
Purpose: Dysfunction of vasomotor reactions due to arteriolar smooth muscle causes serious adverse events, such as loss of hemodynamic coherence. This in turn can increase risks of cardiovascular-related diseases. A noninvasive and quantitative evaluation of microvascular disorder is therefore very important for early diagnosis and treatment.

Background: For patients who experience atypical neurogenic pain thought to be complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after Dupuytren's fasciectomy early recognition has been reported to improve outcomes. Furthermore, given the progressive nature of Dupuytren's, individuals with a history of CRPS have been "at risk" for further surgical intervention.
Purpose: To familiarize therapists with a Budapest criteria (BC) checklist for early diagnosis of CRPS, describe how tracking sudomotor/vasomotor signs alongside differences in skin temperature were used to monitor vasomotor instability and intervention effectiveness for a patient with atypical pain after fasciectomy and to detail management of the same patient with a CRPS history who had collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injection of her other hand without exacerbating CRPS.
Efficacy of GnRH antagonists in the treatment of uterine fibroids: a meta-analysis.
Arch Gynecol Obstet
January 2025
Gynecology Department, Hospital Clínico San Carlos, Calle del Prof Martín Lagos, S/N, 28040, Madrid, Spain.
Purpose: Uterine fibroids are the most common pelvic tumors in women, representing the primary indication of hysterectomy. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists represent a new therapeutic option for premenopausal women. The aim of this review is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of GnRH antagonists in the treatment of uterine fibroids (size reduction and symptom control).

Purpose Of Review: Perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms are common and may significantly impact quality of life. Menopausal hormone therapy is the most effective treatment but may not be appropriate in all cases. Nonhormonal alternatives range from lifestyle changes and dietary supplements to medical interventions and prescription therapies.
