The most common tumour in female reproductive system is uterine myoma. The high risk of development of uterine myoma is age. Early middle age woman (ages 35-44) is period of age beyond young adulthood but before the onset of old age. In this period of age, uterine myoma is very common.This study used a qualitative method. Women diagnosed with uterine myoma participated in this study. To collect data, observation and interview were needed. The conclusion of this study will prove the risk of development of uterine myoma in early middle age woman.

Little is known about the relative benefits of cognitively stimulating activities at different points in the lifespan. In a cohort of 576 older persons without dementia, we assessed current and past (childhood, young adulthood, middle age) frequency of cognitive activity; availability of cognitively stimulating resources in the home in childhood and middle age; and 5 domains of cognitive function. Past cognitive activity and cognitive resources were positively correlated with both current cognitive activity and current cognitive function. The association with cognitive function was reduced after controlling for current cognitive activity, however. Current cognitive activity was associated with better cognitive function, especially semantic memory and perceptual speed, even after controlling for past activity. The results suggest that past cognitive activity contributes to current cognition principally through its association with cognitive activity in old age. (JINS, 2005,11, 400–407.)

Saint Augustine distinguished six periods of human life: infancy (infantia), childhood (pueritia), adolescence (adolescentia), young adulthood (iuventus), middle age (gravitas) and old age (senectus). Each of those periods has a per­spective. Only in old age there is lack of it. Augustine makes the examination of conscience. Sentimental mood appears in the mail from the Saint Jerome, who poses himself as an old man in the opposition to Augustine as a young man, mak­ing allusions to ancient literature and his age. Exchange of letters between the Fathers of the Church records Augustine’s respect toward an old man, the monk. The entire reality is in continuous motion, as you can see in a simple anthropologi­cal observation of different periods of human development: childhood (pueritia), adolescence (adolescentia), young adulthood (iuventus), old age (senectus). The latter closes the death. Old age is a common weakness (communis infirmitas) of mankind. Augustine complained frequently on the impending old age, which ac­cording to ancients starts with 60 year old.

Background: Persons with obesity are at high risk of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA); however, the relationship between obesity in young adulthood and future OSA risk is unknown. Methods: We prospectively examined the association between changes in measures of adiposity in young adulthood and subsequent risk of OSA in 857 middle-aged adults free of cardiovascular disease at baseline. Data included at least 2 measures of adiposity (BMI, waist circumference, waist/hip ratio, and waist/height ratio) after 18 years of age. High-risk of OSA was defined as 2 of the following: hypertension, persistent snoring, and persistent daytime sleepiness, based on modified Berlin Questionnaire score, excluding BMI. Persistent snoring was defined as snoring on ≥3 nights/week, snoring louder than talking or very loud, and breathing pauses on ≥3 nights/week. Persistent daytime sleepiness was defined as feeling tired ≥3 days/week after sleeping, feeling tired during time awake ≥3 days/week, and falling asleep while driving. Results: The sample was 42% male and 32% African-American. Mean age was 43 years and mean BMI was 31 kg/m 2 when sleep outcomes were measured. BMI increased by 6.1 kg/m 2 over 25 years, waist circumference increased by 16.4 cm over 22 years, waist/hip ratio increased by 0.05 over 15 years, and waist/height ratio increased by 0.09 over 22 years. There were 235 (27%) participants with high-risk of OSA. In multivariate log linear regression models, participants with a one standard deviation increase in BMI had 1.30 (95% CI: 1.14, 1.49) times the risk of OSA, after adjustment for age, gender, race, educational level, leisure-time physical activity, regular drinking, current smoking, and years of follow-up. Participants with a one standard deviation increase in BMI, waist circumference, and waist/height ratio had 1.35 (95% CI: 1.22, 1.50), 1.17 (95% CI: 1.08, 1.27), and 1.22 (95% CI: 1.11, 1.34) times the risk of persistent snoring. The association was not significant for persistent daytime sleepiness. Waist/hip ratio was not significantly associated with any sleep-related outcome. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that an increase in BMI in young adulthood is an independent predictor of high-risk of OSA in middle age. Increases in BMI, waist circumference, and waist/height ratio are independently associated with persistent snoring in middle age.

ABSTRACT The present investigation deals with the oestrogen-sensitivity of the female reproductive system during the neonatal period. Newborn female guinea pigs were used as test animals. At different times after a single subcutaneous injection of a physiological dose of 0.1 μg or an unphysiologically high dose of 10 μg 17β-oestradiol/100 g body weight, the RNA- and protein-synthesis was examined in the hypothalamic region, pituitary, cerebral cortex, liver, adrenal gland, ovary and uterus. With a physiological dose an increase in organ weight, protein content, RNA-and protein-synthesis was found only in the uterus. These alterations turned out to be dose-dependent. In addition to the findings in the uterus an inhibition of the aminoacid incorporation rate occurred in the liver following the injection of the high oestradiol dose. As early as 1 hour after the administration of 0.1 μg 17β-oestradiol an almost 100% increase in uterine protein synthesis was detectable. This result demonstrates a high oestrogen-sensitivity of this organ during the neonatal period. All the other organs of the female reproductive system such as the hypothalamus, pituitary and ovary did not show any oestrogen response. Therefore the functional immaturity of the uterus during post partem life is not the result of a deficient hormone sensitivity but is correlated with the absence of a sufficient hormonal stimulus at this time. The investigation on the effects of actinomycin resulted in different reactions in the uterus and liver. In contrast to the liver a paradoxical actinomycin effect was found in the uterus after treatment with actinomycin alone. This effect is characterized by a small inhibition of RNA-synthesis and a 50% increase in protein synthesis. The treatment of the newborn test animals with actinomycin and 17β-oestradiol together abolished the oestrogen-induced stimulation of the uterine RNA-and protein-synthesis. Consequently, the effect of oestrogens during the neonatal period is also connected with the formation of new proteins via an increased DNA-directed RNA-synthesis.
