Abstract
BACKGROUND Statins are the leading lipid-lowering drugs, reducing blood cholesterol by controlling its synthesis. Side effects are linked to the use of statins, in particular statin-associated muscle symptoms (SAMS). Some data suggest that vitamin D supplementation could reduce SAMS. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation in a randomized controlled trial. METHODS Men (n = 23) and women (n = 15) (50.5 ± 7.7 years [mean ± SD]) in primary cardiovascular prevention, self-reporting or not SAMS, were recruited. Following 2 months of statin withdrawal, patients were randomized to supplementation (vitamin D or placebo). After 1 month of supplementation, statins were reintroduced. Before and 2 months after drug reintroduction, muscle damage (creatine kinase and myoglobin) was measured. Force (F), endurance (E) and power (P) of the leg extensors (ext) and flexors (fle) and handgrip strength (FHG) were also measured with isokinetic and handheld dynamometers, respectively. The Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire and a visual analog scale (VAS) were administrated to assess participants' self-reported health-related quality of life and SAMS intensity, respectively. Repeated-measures analysis was used to investigate the effects of time, supplementation, and their interaction, according to the presence of SAMS. RESULTS Despite no change for objective measures, subjective measures worsened after reintroduction of statins, independent of supplementation (VAS, SF-36 mental component score, all p < 0.05). However, no interaction between time and supplementation according to the presence of SAMS was observed for any variables. CONCLUSIONS Vitamin D supplementation does not appear to mitigate SAMS.

PLoS One 2023; 18:e0281178. [PMID: 37315062 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0281178] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 05/07/2023] [Indexed: 06/16/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Statin-associated muscle symptoms (SAMS) are frequently reported. Nevertheless, few data on objective measures of muscle function are available. Recent data suggesting an important nocebo effect with statin use could confound such effects. The objective was to assess if subjective and objective measures of muscle function improve after drug withdrawal in SAMS reporters. METHODS Patients (59 men, 33 women, 50.3±9.6 yrs.) in primary cardiovascular prevention composed three cohorts: statin users with (SAMS, n = 61) or without symptoms (No SAMS, n = 15), and controls (n = 16) (registered at clinicaltrials.gov, NCT01493648). Force (F), endurance (E) and power (P) of the leg extensors (ext) and flexors (fle) and handgrip strength (Fhg) were measured using isokinetic and handheld dynamometers, respectively. A 10-point visual analogue scale (VAS) was used to self-assess SAMS intensity. Measures were taken before and after two months of withdrawal. RESULTS Following withdrawal, repeated-measures analyses show improvements for the entire cohort in Eext, Efle, Ffle, Pext and Pfle (range +7.2 to +13.3%, all p≤0.02). Post-hoc analyses show these changes to occur notably in SAMS (+8.8 to +16.6%), concurrent with a decrease in subjective perception of effects in SAMS (VAS, from 5.09 to 1.85). Fhg was also improved in SAMS (+4.0 to +6.2%) when compared to No SAMS (-1.7 to -4.2%) (all p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS Whether suffering from "true" SAMS or nocebo, those who reported SAMS had modest but relevant improvements in muscle function concurrent with a decrease in subjective symptoms intensity after drug withdrawal. Greater attention by clinicians to muscle function in frail statin users appears warranted. TRIAL REGISTRATION This study is registered in clinicaltrials.gov (NCT01493648).

Abstract
The main objectives of this study were to carry out the translation and cross-cultural adaptation of the Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire (APFQ) into Spanish and the evaluation of its psychometric properties of validity and reliability in the Spanish population. The APFQ was translated into Spanish and back-translated into its original language by native speakers; it was verified that there was a semantic similarity. A pilot test was carried out on a group of 10 women. The study sample was made up of 104 subjects. They were asked to fill in the APFQ twice, 15 days apart. Codes were assigned so they could link to the test and retest. The Questionnaire on Pelvic Floor Dysfunctions-short version (PFDI-20) and the Women's Sexual Function Questionnaire (FSM) were also completed. The reliability, criterion and construct validity, and stability were studied. A Cronbach's alpha of 0.795 was obtained from the complete questionnaire. For each dimension, Cronbach's alpha was 0.864 for bladder function; 0.796 for bowel function; 0.851 for prolapse; and 0.418 for sexual function (0.67 with the suppression of item 37). The APFQ shows a significant correlation with PFDI-20 in urinary function (rho: 0.704, p = 0.000), intestinal function (rho: 0.462, p = 0.000), and prolapse symptoms (rho: 0.337, p = 0.000). The test-retest analysis showed high reproducibility. The Spanish version of the APFQ is a reliable and valid tool to assess symptoms and impacts on quality of life due to pelvic floor dysfunctions in the Spanish population. However, a review of some of its items could increase its reliability.

Abstract
PURPOSE While some work has been done on Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in statin users, none has focused specifically on statin-associated muscle symptoms (SAMS) sufferers. The objective was to assess self-reported HRQoL, before and after statin withdrawal, in patients reporting SAMS. We hypothesized that the presence of SAMS associated with decreased self-reported physical and mental well-being. METHODS Patients (50 men/28 women [M/W], aged 49 ± 9 years [Mean ± SD]) in primary cardiovascular prevention were recruited into three cohorts: statin users with (SAMS, 29 M/18W) or without symptoms (No SAMS, 10 M/5W) and controls (11 M/5W). The Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36) was used to assess HRQoL. All variables were measured before and after 2 months of statin withdrawal, and repeated measures analyses were used to verify withdrawal and group effects as well as their interaction. RESULTS SF-36 physical and mental component scores (respectively, PCS and MCS) were lower in the SAMS group compared with other groups (both p < 0.01). Statin withdrawal led to an increase in LDL cholesterol for statin users (+69.0%, p < 0.01) and an improvement in well-being in the SAMS group, other groups showing no change. A time x category interaction (p = 0.02) was seen for PCS and post hoc analyses showed that statin withdrawal improved PCS and MCS (respectively, +12.5% [ES 0.77] and +5.1% [ES 0.27], both p < 0.05) in the SAMS group. CONCLUSION Patients self-reporting SAMS showed improved HRQoL following drug withdrawal, but this was mirrored by a rise in LDL cholesterol. These findings should be considered by clinicians in the evaluation and follow-up of treatment with statins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pelvic floor dysfunctions affect a third of the adult female population, including a large number of clinical conditions, which can be evaluated through validated questionnaires that inform us of the status and perception of women both objectively and subjectively. The main objective of this study was to review and explain the topics of the validated questionnaires in Spanish on pelvic floor dysfunctions and to review their psychometric properties. METHODS A systematic review was carried out in the PUBMED and WOS databases. The keywords used were in PUBMED: (((((((("Fecal Incontinence" [Mesh]) OR "Urinary Incontinence" [Mesh]) OR "Pelvic Organ Prolapse" [Mesh]) OR "Pelvic Floor Disorders" [Mesh]) OR "Sexual Dysfunction, Physiological" [Mesh]) OR "Pelvic Girdle Pain" [Mesh]) OR "sexual function" [Title/Abstract]) OR "Prolapse" [Title/Abstract]) AND "Surveys and Questionnaires" [Mesh] AND "Validation" [Title/Abstract] combined with the Boolean operators "AND"/"OR". In contrast, in WOS, a segregated search was carried out with each of the terms of pelvic floor dysfunction together with "Validation" and "Surveys and Questionnaires". All articles published up to 19 November 2021 were considered. Methodological quality was assessed with the COSMIN scale. RESULTS A total of 687 articles were identified, of which 13 were included. The evaluated questionnaires and the structural characteristics and psychometric properties of each of them were collected. CONCLUSION The Spanish versions of the questionnaires show good basic structural and psychometric characteristics for the evaluation of patients with pelvic floor dysfunctions and that they resemble other versions of the same questionnaire published in other languages.
