Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 5 page paper critiquing a research article for form and validity. The article can be said to have weaknesses in form in that it does not include a literature review and does not define the terms it uses. It still is a highly useful study that can inform patient care, however, particularly the care of peri- and postmenopausal women at risk for developing cardiovascular disease. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

MacAdams, September, 2007 -- properly! Introduction Sutton-Tyrrell, et al. (2005) explain that
it has long been a common assumption that reproductive hormones serve to protect women from cardiovascular disease. The assumption arose from the fact that on average, women develop cardiovascular
disease 10 to 20 years later than men, which places them at a postmenopausal age when those reproductive hormones no longer are operational within them. The authors also state
that the research that has been conducted has focused on white women of postmenopausal age. Purpose of the Study The researchers purpose is
to expand the research to include women of mixed ages and mixed ethnicities. The problem and purpose are directly applicable to patient care and are highly significant. Heart
disease is the leading cause of death among women, and as stated, most women who develop cardiovascular disease do so one to two decades later than men. The ability
to predict with any degree of certainty how postmenopausal condition affects womens cardiovascular risk can be of assistance in monitoring and advising these women.
The purpose - indeed the entire study - does not specifically identify variables that can be labeled as independent. It is not an experimental study, but rather takes
the form of a survey of biological markers and characteristics of a wide range of perimenopausal women. Neither does the article identify a
specific target population other than "women." Part of the problem of the past has been that hormonal research has been conducted using only postmenopausal white women, and it is
