    Abstract Menopausal hormone treatment (MHT) is recommended for the management of menopause symptoms. The Women's Health Initiative (WHI) placebo-controlled randomised study examined the effects of continuous combined or estrogen-only MHT on the risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in post-menopausal women. The study was terminated prematurely after an interim analysis showed an increased risk of breast cancer diagnosis, which led to a rapid decrease in MHT use worldwide. Subsequently, limitations of the study design and its interpretation in the context of other clinical studies has contributed to a more nuanced appreciation of the risk-benefit profile of differing MHT regimens regarding risk associated with the class of progestogen prescribed, its pattern of prescription, duration of use and timing of initiation related to menopause onset. This review provides a contextual interpretation of the WHI placebo-controlled study and evaluates the impact of bioidentical MHT, with a focus on combined therapies containing micronised progesterone, on the risk of chronic NCDs in post-menopausal women.

    Abstract Objectives: The aim of this review was to evaluate whether the biological and epidemiological evidence is concordant in suggesting that levonorgestrel (LNG)-based hormonal contraceptives (HCs) are safer than newer formulations with regard to their effect on the cardiovascular system.
    Methods: A narrative review was carried out of the modification of risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) and arterial diseases induced by different HCs. Limits and concordance with epidemiological data were addressed.
    Results: The data indicate general concordance between modifications of risk factors and epidemiology of VTE, with LNG-based HCs showing lower risk compared with most new formulations. Evidence for drospirenone (DRSP)-containing HCs is conflicting. LNG-based HCs are less favourable than HCs containing non-androgenic progestins, particularly DRSP, on risk factors for arterial events. Epidemiological studies do not consistently show a difference in arterial disease outcomes between different HCs; however, by evaluating women up to the age of 50, they do not take into consideration the time lag necessary for atherosclerosis to develop.
    Conclusions: As a consequence of the different risk factors involved, and the different time lags between HC use and the manifestation of VTE or arterial diseases, the available epidemiological data do not give a reliable estimate of the cardiovascular risk associated with the use of different HCs. LNG-based HCs are safer than newer HCs as regards VTE risk, but biological data indicate that they are less favourable, particularly than HCs containing DRSP, on risk factors for atherosclerosis. Because of the limits of actual epidemiological evidence regarding arterial disease, modifications of arterial risk factors should be taken into consideration when considering individual long-term safety of HC use.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate whether the thromboembolic risk and contraceptive effectiveness of NOMAC-E2 observed in the PRO-E2 study can be extended to each participating country, as lifestyle, cardiovascular risk factors and prescribing habits may differ geographically. This analysis was performed on the PRO-E2 Italian subpopulation, where smoking habit and women over 35 years were more prevalent compared with the overall study population.
    Materials and methods: Data from NOMAC-E2 or levonorgestrel-containing COCs (COC
    Results: Overall, 11,179 NOMAC-E2 and 8,504 COC
    Conclusion: Despite the higher age and tobacco use, findings from the Italian subpopulation were broadly consistent with overall PRO-E2 results, confirming a similar low thromboembolic risk and high contraceptive effectiveness of NOMAC-E2 and COC
    Short condensation: This subgroup analysis of the PRO-E2 study provides comprehensive epidemiological data on the use of combined oral contraceptives in a large Italian cohort, with a higher prevalence of women over 35 years and smokers. The study confirms the low thromboembolic risk and high contraceptive effectiveness of NOMAC-E2 pill.

    Abstract Objective: The study aims to assess how oral misoprostol for cervical ripening affects the time of cesarean delivery (CD) for fetal heart rate (FHR) abnormalities in pre-eclampsia patients. Secondary goals include determining the role of uterine hyperstimulation, comparing misoprostol with Foley catheter, and identifying risk factors for FHR abnormalities associated with CD.
    Methods: A previously published randomized clinical trial was subjected to a secondary analysis (NCT01801410). We conducted a time-dependent analysis, stratifying the population based on the final mode of induction used (low-dose oral misoprostol vs Foley catheter).
    Results: There was no CD for FHR abnormalities within 2 h of starting misoprostol. At 5 h, the cumulative incidence of CD for FHR abnormalities in the misoprostol group was 2.10%, while it was 1.00% in the Foley group (P = 0.565). After 25 h, the CD risk for FHR abnormalities remained constant in both groups at 21.00% (95% confidence interval [CI] 15.00%-28.00%). Within 5 h of misoprostol induction, the risk of uterine hyperstimulation was similar in both groups (0.33% in misoprostol vs 0.34% in Foley group, P = 0.161). The risk of CD for FHR abnormalities was unaffected by newborn weight centiles.
    Conclusion: There was no significant difference in CD risk for FHR abnormalities between misoprostol and Foley catheter induction. Nonetheless, the cumulative incidence of CD for FHR abnormalities increased faster in the misoprostol group, indicating that FHR monitoring timing should be tailored to the induction method.

    Abstract Lifestyle change is the first-line of treatment for the management of women with PCOS, however obtaining long-term adherence is challenging. In order to improve adherence to advice on lifestyle, we propose a strategic systematic approach that could be easily remembered with the acronym I.M.P.R.O.V.E.: Inform, Motivate, Prescribe, Reward, Oversee, Visualize, Empower. Besides giving information and recommendations, it emphasizes the need to listen to PCOS patients in order to better motivate and to encourage to increase those physical activities they like the most. The reduction of calorie intake more than macronutrient changes may also be proposed. In the second phase the strategy aims to assess lifestyle changes, trying to visualize and quantify them so as to reinforce adherence and motivation or to find new motivations and rewards. The final goal is to empower the patient in order to maintain long term self-adherence. Lifestyle approach is not an alternative to pharmacological treatment of PCOS, but it is synergic with it as it can counterbalance some side effects or risks.
