Therefore, this study was set to assess the prevalence of obesity and impact of menopause on it among women.

Although it is affected by number of factors including food, gender, socioeconomic status, and genetics but menopause is important in postmenopausal women. In conclusion, pulmonary embolism should be attended after disasters and prolonged immobilization in automobiles may increase risk of pulmonary embolism and sudden death.Obesity is one of the major health public problems and it not only leads to serious and chronic diseases but also causes poor mental health. Sudden death also increased after the earthquake and 7 of 22 cases (32%) spend night(s) in automobile. Six of 9 patients (67%) took refuge in their automobiles before the onset of pulmonary embolism. The first case occurred two days after the initial earthquake and new cases were reported for 27 days thereafter. Pulmonary embolism increased to 9 cases in the 4 weeks after the earthquake, compared to 1 case in the 4 weeks before the earthquake, 2 cases in the corresponding 8 weeks in 2003, and 1 case in 2002. We investigated the impact of the earthquake that occurred in Niigata, Japan, on pulmonary embolism. Physical and psychological stress induced by catastrophic events such as earthquakes can lead to sudden death, acute coronary syndrome, stroke, and other cardiovascular diseases.
