Real World Implications of Endometriosis and Cardiac Risk

摘要: with laparoscopically confirmed endometriosis had an increased risk of myocardial infarction (RR 1.52; 95% CI 1.17 to 1.98), angiographically angina (RR1.91; 1.59 2.29), coronary artery bypass graft surgery/coronary angioplasty procedure/stent (RR1.35; 1.08 1.69), or any these CHD end points combined (RR1.62; 1.39 1.89). The findings were independent potential demographic, anthropometric, genetic, reproductive, and lifestyle confounders. More specifically, Mu et al. reported that women found have at age 40 younger three times more likely than those without the diagnosis during a 20-year follow-up. As increased, relative decreased; in other words, was similar between once they reached 50. Finally, one key 42% association could be attributed early hysterectomy oophorectomy among endometriosis. Clearly, it is our responsibility as gynaecologists interpret disseminate results this study general public specifically patients. Key questions arise from include (1) does everyone require cardiology assessment? (2) do change treatment options we present patients?
