摘要：

Cardiovascular disease, especially coronary artery disease (CAD), are leading causes of morbidity and mortality in women over the age of 50, whereas this is rarely the case in younger women. This fact, the overall lower incidence of and the 10–15 year retarded occurrence of CAD in women, has led to the controversially discussed question whether menopause is a risk factor for CAD.
