简要总结
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of carbohydrate quality on quality of life and menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women. Data were collected from 604 postmenopausal women using a demographic questionnaire, the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQOL), and the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS). Carbohydrate quality was assessed using food frequency consumption data, and the results were analyzed with SPSS 24 software.

Objective
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of carbohydrate quality on quality of life and menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women.
Method: A total of 604 postmenopausal women participated in the study. Participants completed a demographic questionnaire, the Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Questionnaire (MENQOL), and the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS). Carbohydrate quality was assessed using food frequency consumption data and analyzed based on dietary fiber, glycemic index, solid carbohydrate-to-total carbohydrate ratio, and whole grains-to-total grains ratio. Results were divided into five quartiles, with Q5 representing the highest and Q1 the lowest carbohydrate quality. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS 24 software.

主要结局
Evaluating carbohydrate quality
时间窗: Basaline
132 food groups obtained from the food consumption frequency questionnaire were analyzed. Daily intake (g/day) was calculated using the BeBiS program with a global database, based on the amount and frequency of food consumed by participants. Glycaemic Index (GI) values were also determined using the BeBiS program, taking into account both the amount and frequency of food consumed. To determine the Carbohydrate Quality Index score, each of the four components (fiber intake, whole grain ratio, Glycaemic Index, and total carbohydrate ratio) was rated from 1 to 5 points. The score for each component was then summed. Q5 indicates the highest and Q1 the lowest carbohydrate quality.
