Abstract

Background: The evaluation of uric acid in postmenopausal women represents a crucial endeavor to unravel its role in shaping health outcomes during this significant life phase. Through a comprehensive investigation, we aim to contribute valuable insights that could aid in designing more targeted and effective strategies for promoting the health and well-being of postmenopausal women. Objective: To assess serum uric acid in postmenopausal women. Methodology: This cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out at Department of Physiology of Rajshahi Medical College from July 2018 to June 2019. Where 200 healthy postmenopausal women aged 50-70 years in Rajshahi city were included as sample size. The healthy adults who were fulfill the inclusion criteria was enrolled in this study. After taking informed consent, complete history taking and physical examination was done and recorded in a preformed data sheet. Results: Out of 200 postmenopausal women, 19.5% have hyperuricemia. Remaining 80.5% of postmenopausal women have normal serum uric acid level. The mean serum uric acid level among group-I of postmenopausal women were 6.06±0.94 mg/dl and group-II of postmenopausal women were 6.35±1.02 mg/dl, which does not differ significantly. Conclusion: Heightened serum uric acid levels were detected among postmenopausal women, reinforcing the finding that as women in this group age, there is a noteworthy rise in their serum uric acid levels. This highlights the imperative need for consistent monitoring of serum uric acid in this specific demographic.
绝经后妇女血清尿酸的评价
背景:绝经后妇女尿酸的评估是揭示其在这一重要生命阶段形成健康结果中的作用的重要努力。通过全面的调查,我们的目标是提供有价值的见解,可以帮助设计更有针对性和有效的策略,促进绝经后妇女的健康和福祉。目的:评价绝经后妇女血清尿酸水平。方法:本横断面描述性研究于2018年7月至2019年6月在Rajshahi医学院生理学系进行。其中包括拉杰沙希市200名50-70岁的健康绝经后妇女作为样本量。符合纳入标准的健康成人被纳入本研究。在知情同意后,完成完整的病史记录和体格检查,并记录在预先编制的数据表中。结果:200例绝经后妇女中,19.5%有高尿酸血症。其余80.5%的绝经后妇女血清尿酸水平正常。绝经后妇女血清尿酸水平i组为6.06±0.94 mg/dl, ii组为6.35±1.02 mg/dl,差异无统计学意义。结论:在绝经后妇女中检测到血清尿酸水平升高,强化了这一发现,即随着绝经后妇女年龄的增长,血清尿酸水平显著升高。这凸显了在这一特定人群中持续监测血清尿酸的迫切需要。
