Resumen
[ES]El objetivo del presente estudio fue analizar la asociación de diferentes parámetros de función física con la calidad de vida específica de la menopausia. Para ello se realizó un estudio transversal en 115 mujeres postmenopáusicas españolas (68.89 ± 9.22 años) en las que se midieron los valores de fuerza muscular del miembro inferior y miembro superior, la movilidad funcional, la Escala Cervantes (calidad de vida específica de menopausia) y las posibles variables de confusión como el IMC, la edad, la ansiedad y la depresión. Nuestros resultados mostraron que ambas fuerzas (miembro inferior y de agarre) y la presencia de ansiedad se mostraron como factores que se asociaron con una mayor puntuación total (peor calidad de vida) de la escala Cervantes, con un tamaño del efecto moderado (R2 ajustada = 0.16). Respecto a los dominios mayor fuerza en miembros inferiores y menor edad, se asociaron independientemente con una mejor puntuación en el dominio psíquico (R2 ajustada = 0.16); menor edad y mayor fuerza de agarre con mejor puntuación en el dominio sexualidad (R2 ajustada = 0.24); y sólo una mayor fuerza de miembro superior se asoció de manera independiente con una mejor puntuación en el dominio relación de pareja (R2 ajustada = 0.04). El estudio concluyó que peores valores de función física se asociaron con peor calidad de vida asociada a la salud específica de mujeres perimenopáusicas y postmenopáusicas
[EN]The objective of the present study was to analyze the association of physical function values with quality of life (QoL) specific for menopause. To this end, a cross-sectional study was conducted in 115 Spanish postmenopausal women (68.89 ± 9.22 years) in which the values of muscular strength of the lower limb, handgrip, functional mobility, the Cervantes Scale (menopause-specific quality of life) and possible confounding variables such as body mass index, age, anxiety, and depression were assessed. Respect the global score, both strengths (lower limb and handgrip) and the presence of anxiety were shown as factors that were associated with a higher total score (worse quality of life) on the Cervantes scale, with a moderate effect size (R2 adjusted = 0.16). Respect the domains greater strength in lower limbs and younger age, they were independently associated with a better score in the psychic domain (R2 adjusted = 0.16); younger age and greater handgrip with better score in the sexuality domain (R2 adjusted = 0.24); and only higher handgrip was independently associated with a better score in the couple relationship domain (R2 adjusted = 0.04). The study concluded that worse physical function values were associated with poorer quality of life associated with the specific health of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women.
