我们最近一项研究发表在《糖尿病护理》(Diabetes Care)杂志,这项大型前瞻性研究显示,提早绝经与2型糖尿病发生风险增加有关。当前研究结果就绝经后妇女2型糖尿病的高发病率这一现象来说是很有价值的,提早绝经的直接后果可能与妇女患糖尿病风险直接相关。例如,提早绝经可以考虑作为糖尿病筛查或直接预防的一个因素。 Our most recent study, published in Diabetes Care, a large prospective study, shows that early menopause is associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes. The current findings are valuable for the high prevalence of type 2 diabetes in postmenopausal women and the immediate consequences of early menopause may be directly linked to women’s risk of developing diabetes. For example, early menopause can be considered as a factor in screening for diabetes or direct prevention.
