Accelerated Accumulation of Multimorbidity After Bilateral Oophorectomy: A Population-Based Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: To study the association between bilateral oophorectomy and the rate of accumulation of multimorbidity.In this historical cohort study, the Rochester Epidemiology Project records-linkage system was used to identify all premenopausal women who underwent bilateral oophorectomy before age 50 years between January 1, 1988, and December 31, 2007, in Olmsted County, Minnesota. Each woman was randomly matched to a referent woman born in the same year (±1 year) who had not undergone bilateral oophorectomy. We studied the rate of accumulation of 18 common chronic conditions over a median of approximately 14 years of follow-up.Although women who underwent bilateral oophorectomy already had a higher multimorbidity burden at the time of oophorectomy, they also experienced an increased risk of subsequent multimorbidity. After adjustments for 18 chronic conditions present at baseline, race/ethnicity, education, body mass index, smoking, age at baseline, and calendar year at baseline, women who underwent oophorectomy before age 46 years experienced an increased risk of depression, hyperlipidemia, cardiac arrhythmias, coronary artery disease, arthritis, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and osteoporosis. In addition, they experienced an accelerated rate of accumulation of the 18 chronic conditions considered together (hazard ratio, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.14-1.31; P<.001). Several of these associations were reduced in women who received estrogen therapy.Bilateral oophorectomy is associated with a higher risk of multimorbidity, even after adjustment for conditions present at baseline and for several possible confounders. However, several of these associations were reduced in women who received estrogen therapy.

Project description:ObjectivesTo determine if bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, compared with ovarian conservation, is associated with all cause or cause specific death in women undergoing hysterectomy for non-malignant disease, and to determine how this association varies with age at surgery.DesignPopulation based cohort study.SettingOntario, Canada from 1 January 1996 to 31 December 2015, and follow-up to 31 December 2017.Participants200 549 women (aged 30-70 years) undergoing non-malignant hysterectomy, stratified into premenopausal (<45 years), menopausal transition (45-49 years), early menopausal (50-54 years), and late menopausal (≥55 years) groups according to age at surgery; median follow-up was 12 years (interquartile range 7-17).ExposuresBilateral salpingo-oophorectomy versus ovarian conservation.Main outcomes measuresThe primary outcome was all cause death. Secondary outcomes were non-cancer and cancer death. Within each age group, overlap propensity score weighted survival models were used to examine the association between bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and mortality outcomes, while adjusting for demographic characteristics, gynaecological conditions, and comorbidities. To account for comparisons in four age groups, P<0.0125 was considered statistically significant.ResultsBilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was performed in 19%, 41%, 69%, and 81% of women aged <45, 45-49, 50-54, and ≥55 years, respectively. The procedure was associated with increased rates of all cause death in women aged <45 years (hazard ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval 1.18 to 1.45, P<0.001; number needed to harm 71 at 20 years) and 45-49 years (1.16, 1.04 to 1.30, P=0.007; 152 at 20 years), but not in women aged 50-54 years (0.83, 0.72 to 0.97, P=0.018) or ≥55 years (0.92, 0.82 to 1.03, P=0.16). Findings in women aged <50 years were driven largely by increased non-cancer death. In secondary analyses identifying a possible change in the association between bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and all cause death with advancing age at surgery, the hazard ratio gradually decreased during the menopausal transition and remained around 1 at all ages thereafter.ConclusionIn this observational study, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy at non-malignant hysterectomy appeared to be associated with increased all cause mortality in women aged <50 years, but not in those aged ≥50 years. While caution is warranted when considering bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in premenopausal women without indication, this strategy for ovarian cancer risk reduction does not appear to be detrimental to survival in postmenopausal women.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:Bilateral oophorectomy has commonly been performed in conjunction with hysterectomy even in women without a clear ovarian indication; however, oophorectomy may have long-term deleterious consequences. To better understand this surgical practice from the woman's perspective, we studied the possible association of adverse childhood or adult experiences with the subsequent occurrence of bilateral oophorectomy. DESIGN:Population-based case-control study. SETTING:Olmsted County, Minnesota (USA). PARTICIPANTS:From an established population-based cohort study, we sampled 128 women who underwent bilateral oophorectomy before age 46 years for a non-cancerous condition in 1988-2007 (cases) and 128 age-matched controls (±1 year). METHODS:Information about adverse experiences was abstracted from the medical records dating back to age 15 years or earlier archived in the Rochester Epidemiology Project (REP) records-linkage system. Adverse childhood experiences were summarised using the Adverse Childhood Experience (ACE) score. RESULTS:We observed an association of bilateral oophorectomy performed before age 46 years with verbal or emotional abuse, physical abuse, any abuse, substance abuse in the household, and with an ACE score ?1 experienced before age 19 years (OR=3.23; 95% CI 1.73 to 6.02; p<0.001). In women who underwent the oophorectomy before age 40 years, we also observed a strong association with physical abuse experienced during adulthood (OR=4.33; 95% CI 1.23 to 15.21; p=0.02). Several of the associations were higher in women who underwent oophorectomy at a younger age (<40 years) and in women without an ovarian indication for the surgery. None of the psychosocial or medical variables explored as potential confounders or intervening variables changed the results noticeably. CONCLUSIONS:Women who suffered adverse childhood experiences or adult abuse are at increased risk of undergoing bilateral oophorectomy before menopause. We suggest that the association may be explained by a series of biological, emotional, and psychodynamic mechanisms.

Project description:BackgroundUnilateral oophorectomy has the benefits of preserving the ovarian function of fertility and hormone secretion, but the precise inclusion criteria for candidates for this procedure remain controversial. This study aimed to compare the prevalence and therapeutic efficiency of unilateral oophorectomy in women with ovarian cancer who underwent bilateral oophorectomy; moreover, it aimed to identify the appropriate candidates for unilateral oophorectomy.MethodsFemale patients diagnosed with stage I-III ovarian cancer between 2000 and 2017 were retrospectively identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program database. Overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) after unilateral or bilateral (salpingo-) oophorectomy were estimated. Cumulative mortality rates (CMRs) for non-cancer comorbidities were also estimated.ResultsA total of 28,480 women with ovarian cancer were included in this study, of whom 11,517 died during the study period. Of the patients, 7.5% and 48.0% underwent unilateral and bilateral oophorectomy, respectively. Overall, for stage-Ia tumors, unilateral oophorectomy was associated with remarkably better OS and DSS than bilateral oophorectomy (OS: p < 0.001; DSS: p = 0.01). For stage-Ib and stage-Ic ovarian tumor, there was no significant difference between the OS and DSS of patients treated by unilateral oophorectomy and those treated by bilateral oophorectomy. For stage-II and stage-III ovarian cancer, unilateral oophorectomy was associated with remarkably worse OS and DSS than bilateral oophorectomy. Among the reproductive-age women younger than 50 years, the OS and DSS of patients with stage-I tumors receiving unilateral oophorectomy were comparable to those receiving bilateral oophorectomy, even for high-grade stage-Ic tumors (all p > 0.05). For those aged 50 years and older, OS and DSS of patients with stage-I tumor receiving unilateral oophorectomy were significantly worse than those receiving bilateral oophorectomy, even for low-grade stage-Ia ovarian tumor (OS: p < 0.001; DSS: p = 0.02).ConclusionUnilateral oophorectomy exhibited excellent oncological superiority and was equivalent to bilateral oophorectomy for stage-I ovarian tumors among women of reproductive age. For women of reproductive age, the criteria of unilateral oophorectomy can be appropriately broadened to high-grade stage-Ic diseases because of the better performance of unilateral oophorectomy in this population.

Project description:AbstractObjectivesTo describe the effect of multimorbidity on adverse patient centred outcomes in people attending emergency department.DesignPopulation based cohort study.SettingEmergency departments in NHS Lothian in Scotland, from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2019.ParticipantsAdults (≥18 years) attending emergency departments.Data sourcesLinked data from emergency departments, hospital discharges, and cancer registries, and national mortality data.Main outcome measuresMultimorbidity was defined as at least two conditions from the Elixhauser comorbidity index. Multivariable logistic or linear regression was used to assess associations of multimorbidity with 30 day mortality (primary outcome), hospital admission, reattendance at the emergency department within seven days, and time spent in emergency department (secondary outcomes). Primary analysis was stratified by age (<65 v ≥65 years).Results451 291 people had 1 273 937 attendances to emergency departments during the study period. 43 504 (9.6%) had multimorbidity, and people with multimorbidity were older (median 73 v 43 years), more likely to arrive by emergency ambulance (57.8% v 23.7%), and more likely to be triaged as very urgent (23.5% v 9.2%) than people who do not have multimorbidity. After adjusting for other prognostic covariates, multimorbidity, compared with no multimorbidity, was associated with higher 30 day mortality (8.2% v 1.2%, adjusted odds ratio 1.81 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.72 to 1.91)), higher rate of hospital admission (60.1% v 20.5%, 1.81 (1.76 to 1.86)), higher reattendance to an emergency department within seven days (7.8% v 3.5%, 1.41 (1.32 to 1.50)), and longer time spent in the department (adjusted coefficient 0.27 h (95% CI 0.26 to 0.27)). The size of associations between multimorbidity and all outcomes were larger in younger patients: for example, the adjusted odds ratio of 30 day mortality was 3.03 (95% CI 2.68 to 3.42) in people younger than 65 years versus 1.61 (95% CI 1.53 to 1.71) in those 65 years or older.ConclusionsAlmost one in ten patients presenting to emergency department had multimorbidity using Elixhauser index conditions. Multimorbidity was strongly associated with adverse outcomes and these associations were stronger in younger people. The increasing prevalence of multimorbidity in the population is likely to exacerbate strain on emergency departments unless practice and policy evolve to meet the growing demand.
