    Abstract Objective: To determine whether menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) increases the risk of gallstones and gallbladder cancer.
    Design: A retrospective cohort study.
    Patients or other participants: Data from the Korea National Health Insurance Corporation was obtained between January 1, 2002, and December 31, 2019.
    Interventions: Participants were divided into MHT and non-MHT groups; the MHT group was analyzed in detail by dividing participants into tibolone, combined estrogen plus progestin by the manufacturer (CEPM) or physician (CEPP), oral estrogen alone, and topical estrogen subgroups.
    Main outcome measures: The incidence of gallstones and gallbladder cancer was compared between the two groups.
    Results: This study enrolled 1,004,034 and 381,711 patients in the non-MHT and the MHT groups, respectively. The incidence of gallstones was 2.6% in the non-MHT group and 3.4%, 2.6%, 3.4%, 3.2%, and 4.4% in the tibolone, CEPM, oral estrogen alone, CEPP, and topical estrogen groups, respectively. Cox proportional hazard analysis revealed that all hormones increased the risk of gallstones ([tibolone] hazard ratio [HR]: 1.347, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.309-1.387, [CEPM] HR: 1.146, 95% CI: 1.1-1.19, [oral estrogen alone] HR: 1.241, 95% CI: 1.18-1.305, [CEPP] HR: 1.164, 95% CI: 1.01-1.341, [topical estrogen] HR: 1.602, 95% CI: 1.295-1.983). However, the risk of gallbladder cancer did not change with any hormone therapy.
    Conclusions: All types of MHT including tibolone, increased the risk of gallstones. This risk was the highest with topical estrogen, which may be a result of selection bias due to concerns regarding the adverse effects of CEE and MPA.

    Abstract Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA), or Kennedy's disease, is a rare X-linked neuromuscular disorder predominantly affecting males and caused by a mutation in the androgen receptor gene. The epidemiology and comorbidities associated with SBMA in different ethnicities remain poorly understood. This study investigated the prevalence, incidence, and comorbidities associated with SBMA in the South Korean population using the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service (HIRA) database. We retrospectively reviewed diagnosed cases of SBMA (G12.25 code of the Korean Classification of Diseases-7th edition) registered from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2019, to calculate incidence and prevalence rates and concomitant comorbidities. Additionally, we surveyed SBMA patients (questionnaire group) visiting our clinic in 2022 to compare comorbidities with the HIRA data. The mean incidence rate of SBMA in the Korean population was 0.36/100,000 males from 2018 to 2019, while the prevalence rate was approximately 0.46/100,000 males from 2016 to 2019. The most common comorbidities identified in HIRA were gastritis and duodenitis (99.7%), gastroesophageal reflux (90.5%), hyperlipidemia (88.4%), and liver disorders (75.2%), which showed similar results in the questionnaire group. Additionally, gastric cancer was the most common type of cancer reported in SBMA in South Korea; although indeterminate, age-related factors may contribute to the development of cancer in these patients. Our findings provide valuable insights into the epidemiology and associated comorbidities of SBMA within the Korean population, which could inform clinical practice and future clinical research.

    Abstract Introduction: Menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is used to alleviate the symptoms associated with menopause, despite the lack of recommendations for MHT in preventing dementia. Recent nationwide studies have explored the association between MHT and dementia risk, but the findings remain limited. This study aims to investigate the association between MHT and the incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and non-AD dementia using national population data from Korea.
    Methods: We conducted a retrospective study using data from the National Health Insurance Service in Korea between January 1, 2002, and December 31, 2019. Women over 40 years were eligible for this study and classified into the MHT or non-MHT groups. The MHT group consisted of women who used Tibolone (TIB), combined estrogen plus progestin by the manufacturer (CEPM), estrogen, combined estrogen plus progestin by a physician (CEPP), and transdermal estrogen during menopause. We compared the risk of dementia between the MHT and non-MHT groups.
    Results: The study included 1,399,256 patients, of whom 387,477 were in the MHT group, and 1,011,779 were in the non-MHT group. The median duration of MHT was 23 months (range: 10-55 months). After adjusting for available confounders, we found that different types of MHT had varying effects on the occurrence of dementia. TIB (HR 1.041, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.01-1.072) and oral estrogen alone (HR 1.081, 95% CI 1.03-1.134) were associated with a higher risk of AD dementia. In contrast, there was no difference in the risk of AD dementia by CEPM (HR 0.975, 95% CI 0.93-1.019), CEPP (HR 1.131, 95% CI 0.997-1.283), and transdermal estrogen (HR 0.989, 95% CI 0.757-1.292) use. The use of TIB, CEPM, and oral estrogen alone increased the risk of non-AD dementia (HR 1.335, 95% CI 1.303-1.368; HR 1.25, 95% CI 1.21-1.292; and HR 1.128, 95% CI 1.079-1.179; respectively), but there was no risk of non-AD dementia in the other MHT groups (CEPP and topical estrogen).
    Conclusion: Our findings indicate that MHT has varying effects on the incidence of AD and non-AD dementia. Specifically, TIB, CEPM, and oral estrogen alone increase the risk of non-AD dementia, while transdermal estrogen is not associated with dementia risk. It is essential to consider the type of MHT used when assessing the risk of dementia in women.

    Abstract Objective: This study aimed to investigate the long-term effects and functional outcomes of androgen suppression therapy using leuprorelin among Korean patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA).
    Methods: This observational study enrolled patients with genetically confirmed SBMA who provided informed consent. Leuprorelin was administered via subcutaneous injection every 12 weeks. The primary outcome measure was the change in total Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy Functional Rating Scale (SBMAFRS) scores.
    Results: A total of 48 SBMA patients were evaluated in this study. Among them, 39 patients underwent androgen suppression therapy over a 3-year period. The total SBMAFRS score decreased from 41.72 ± 5.55 to 36.74 ± 7.74 (p < 0.001) in patients who completed their treatment. The subgroup with a baseline SBMAFRS score of ≥ 42 had a significantly lower decline in SBMAFRS score than did those with a baseline SBMAFRS score of ≤ 41. We determined that at a baseline, SBMAFRS cutoff value of 41.5 could predict good prognosis, with a corresponding area under the curve of 0.689.
    Conclusion: Despite androgen suppression therapy, all enrolled participants exhibited a decrease in the overall SBMAFRS score. However, those with a baseline SBMAFRS of ≥ 42 showed a mild decrease in scores, indicating a more favorable prognosis. These findings suggest that a higher baseline motor function was a key prognostic indicator in SBMA treatment and that initiating early leuprorelin treatment in patients with high baseline function may lead to good clinical outcomes.
