Association between serum estradiol levels and abdominal aortic calcification in postmenopausal woman: a cross-sectional study
This study found that a higher prevalence of AAC in postmenopausal women is closely associated with lower serum E2 levels. Our research further underscores the importance of E2 in maintaining cardiovascular health in postmenopausal women and suggests that monitoring E2 levels may aid in the early prevention and management of AAC and related cardiovascular diseases.
