BACKGROUND This study analyzed the epidemiology and the risk factors of menopause syndrome (MPS) among Uyghur, Han, and Kazak women in Xinjiang. MATERIAL AND METHODS This was a cross-sectional study. The stratified-cluster random-sampling method was used. A total of 3382 women aged 40 to 60 years of age were included from Urumqi City, Kashgar City, Altay City, Ili Kazakh Autonomous Prefecture, Künes County, Mongolkure County, Tekes County,Talede town, Alemale Township, and Ulugchat County (Kashgar Prefecture) in Xinjiang Province. A questionnaire was used to survey the clinical characteristics of MPS. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the MPS risk factors among Uyghur, Han, and Kazak women. RESULTS Oral contraceptives, negative life events, and menopause stages can influence MPS in Han women. In addition, occupation, body weight, mental illness, drug or alcohol abuse, and income level also affect the MPS of Uyghur women. In contrast to Han and Uyghur participants, education, menopausal pattern (natural or artificial), reproductive factors, and smoking are risk factors of MPS in Kazakh women. CONCLUSIONS The menopausal stages and the risk factors for MPS are different among Uyghur, Han, and Kazak women.
本研究分析了新疆维吾尔族、汉族和哈萨克族女性更年期综合征（MPS）的流行病学和危险因素。
这是一项横断面研究。采用分层-整群随机抽样方法。共纳入来自新疆乌鲁木齐市、喀什市、阿勒泰市、伊犁哈萨克自治州、库车县、蒙格列克县、特克斯县、塔尔德镇、阿勒马勒乡和乌鲁克恰提县（喀什地区）的 3382 名 40 至 60 岁的女性。使用问卷调查 MPS 的临床特征。采用 logistic 回归分析维吾尔族、汉族和哈萨克族女性 MPS 的危险因素。
口服避孕药、负性生活事件和更年期阶段会影响汉族女性的 MPS。此外，职业、体重、精神疾病、药物或酒精滥用和收入水平也会影响维吾尔族女性的 MPS。与汉族和维吾尔族参与者相比，教育、绝经模式（自然或人工）、生殖因素和吸烟是哈萨克族女性 MPS 的危险因素。
维吾尔族、汉族和哈萨克族女性的更年期阶段和 MPS 的危险因素不同。
