AbstractSarcopenia, similar to hypercortisolism, is characterized by loss of muscle mass and strength. Cortisol circadian rhythm changes with aging (blunted late-day nadir values) were suggested to contribute to this decline. We aimed to explore the relationship between diurnal salivary cortisol values and sarcopenia diagnosis and its components in postmenopausal women. This is a cross-sectional study within the OsteoLaus population-based cohort in Lausanne (Switzerland). Participants had a body composition assessment by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), a grip strength (GS) measure, and salivary cortisol measures (at awakening, 30 min thereafter, 11 AM (sc-11AM) and 8 PM (sc-8PM)). Associations between salivary cortisol and sarcopenia diagnosed by six different criteria (based on appendicular lean mass (ALM) assessed by DXA, and muscle strength by GS), and its components, were analyzed. 471 women aged > 50 years (63.0 ± 7.5) were included. Various definitions identified different participants as sarcopenic, who consistently presented higher salivary cortisol at 11 AM and/or 8 PM. There were no associations between salivary cortisol levels and ALM measures, either absolute or after correction to height squared (ALM index) or body mass index. GS was inversely correlated to sc-11AM (r = − 0.153, p < 0.001) and sc-8PM (r = − 0.118, p = 0.002). Each 10 nmol/l increase of sc-11AM, respectively sc-8PM, was associated with a GS decrease of 1.758 (SE 0.472) kg, respectively 2.929 (SE 1.115) kg. In postmenopausal women, sarcopenia is associated with higher salivary cortisol levels at 11 AM and 8 PM. An increase of daily free cortisol levels in the physiological range could participate to sarcopenia development by decreasing muscle function in postmenopausal women.

Abstract The object of the study was to analyze the relationship between aerobic fitness and body composition in postmenopausal women. We hypothesized that postmenopausal women that had higher adiposity had lower cardiorespiratory capacity, regardless of the characteristics of menopause. The sample included 208 women (57.57 ± 6.62 years), whose body composition and the basal metabolic rate were evaluated by octopolar bioimpedance (InBody 720) and the oxygen uptake by the modified Bruce protocol. Most of the sample showed obesity and a high visceral fat area. The visceral fat area and the basal metabolic rate explained 30% of the variation of oxygen uptake, regardless of age, time, nature or hormone therapy. The values of the latter variables were reduced in the presence of high central adiposity (-6.16 ml/kg/min) and the basal metabolic rate of less than 1238 kcal/day (-0.18 ml/kg/min). The women with oxygen uptake above 30.94 ml/kg/min showed lower values of total and central adiposity when compared with other groups. With an increase of aerobic fitness, there was a growing tendency of the average values of the soft lean mass index, with differences between the groups low-high and moderate-high. These results suggest worsening of the cardiorespiratory condition with an increase of central adiposity and a decrease of the BMR, regardless of age and menopause characteristics.

We present a rare case of a lipoleiomyoma which was discovered incidentally in a hysterectomy specimen of a 74-year old female patient who underwent surgery for a biopsy proven serous adenocarcinoma of the uterus. Lipoleiomyomas represent uncommon, usually benign soft-tissue tumors, generally found in obese menopausal as well as postmenopausal women aged 50 to 70 years. The reported incidence varies from 0.03\% to 0.2\%. The relationship between lipoleiomyomas and gynecologic malignancies has only been reported in a few cases. We report this case of lipoleiomyoma due to its rarity and its association with a serous adenocarcinoma in our patient.

Adipose tissue is currently regarded as a key organ for excess dietary lipids, which determine whether the body will maintain normal homeostasis or whether inflammation and insulin resistance will develop. In recent years, there is more information about novel prognostic models — the visceral adiposity index and the lipid accumulation product. The aim of this review was to analyze the results of studies examining the relationship between various indices of obesity and cardiometabolic risk. We analyzed 105 literature sources, 53 of which were ruled out, becausethe processes of interest were not described in detail or included anassessment of the relationship of various obesity indices with metabolic parameters. The results obtained indicate the advisability of using novel obesity indices, which have a good predictive ability and are simple and convenient to use. It is necessary to use additional methods of anthropometric and clinical examination in order to assess the metabolic phenotype of obesity, which will make it possible to stratify patients by the level of cardiometabolic risk.
