Cardiometabolic Congress Boston, assachusetts April 24, 213 Objectives To describe the major risk factors for CVD in women. To review key gender differences in risk factors. To summarize changes in risk factors during the life cycle, especially at the menopause transition. To review (briefly) clinical trial findings on menopausal hormone therapy, aspirin, and calcium/vitamin D.
