Official Title: The Importance of Vasomotor Symptoms Accompanied With Sleep Disturbances in Respect of the Cardiovascular Risk: an Epigenetic Evaluation
Brief Summary:
Vasomotor symptoms are the most common symptoms seen during climacterium.The hypoestrogenic state causes dysfunction of hypothalamic preoptic area, a thermoregulatory center.The sympathetic overactivation during the hot flashes is associated with awakening during sleep and have a negative impact on cardiac indexes and vascular reactivity.Therefore, hot flashes are accepted as subclinical cardiovascular risk factor.The association between the severity of the hot flashes and cardiovascular risk may have an…
