Filter by:In the context of physical exercise, there is no evidence of the acute and continued use of beetroot juice with a previously recommended dose of nitrate (NO3) (>300mg) on the cardiovascular performance of hypertensive and postmenopausal women. We will investigate the effects of beetroot juice rich in NO3 acutely (first day: 140mL/800mg) and during a week with daily doses (second to the seventh day: 70mL/400mg) on blood pressure, heart rate (HR), cardiac autonomic control, EF, inflammatory, hormonal, and stress biomarkers oxidative stress and enzymes involved in nitric oxide synthesis and mitochondrial regulation, under resting conditions, as well as mediated by submaximal aerobic exercise sessions. Through a randomized, crossover, triple-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, 20 physically inactive hypertensive women will undergo an acute and 7-day trial, each with two intervention protocols: 1) placebo and 2) beetroot; in which will ingest beet juice with or without NO3 in its composition with a 7-day washout interval. On collection days, exercise will be performed on a treadmill for 40 minutes at a speed corresponding to 65-70% of VO2peak. The collection of variables (cardiovascular, autonomic, and blood samples for molecular analyses) of the study will take place at rest (120 minutes after ingestion of the intervention), during exercise (40 minutes), and in the effort recovery stage (during 65 minutes) based on previously validated protocols. The collections were arranged so that the measurement of one variable does not interfere with the other and that they have adequate intervals between them.
One of the AUB symptoms, heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), can lead to iron deficiency and iron deficiency anemia and in acute and severe cases, can necessitate emergency medical care. This study's focus is on the symptom of HMB which has a number of benign causes. The investigative device, the IUB SEAD™, is a novel spherical endometrial ablation device developed to allow for simple, office-based chemical EA to treat benign causes of the symptom of HMB. The suggested procedure is expected to be simpler than the currently available EA methods and yet should still reduce the need for hysterectomy.
The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider.
This study investigates whether intravenous (IV) iron [Feraheme (ferumoxytol) injection)] is a better treatment than oral iron pills (ferrous sulfate) for correcting anemia in women who have heavy menstrual bleeding and anemia. Investigators will study whether women's blood counts respond better, respond more quickly, and if women prefer the IV treatment or the oral treatment. Women who have heavy menstrual bleeding and anemia will be randomly assigned to receive treatment with either oral iron pills or IV iron infusions. Investigators will then check whether and how quickly the anemia improves, and survey participants on how satisfied they were with the treatment.
This is a pilot study to test whether PYC can improve climacteric symptoms for women who have experienced either surgically or medically induced menopause as part of their treatment for breast or gynecologic cancers.
Menometrorrhagia is the first cause of consultation in gynecology. Etiology of menometrorrhagia is varied, but in majority of cases no underlying pathology is found, they are said functional idiopathic menometrorrhagia . In case of failure of medical treatment, for women who do not wish to preserve reproduction possibilities, a surgical treatment by endometrectomy (destruction of the uterine endometrial epithelial) can be proposed. Currently, a new system, Lina LibrataTM is available on the market. This system allows destructing endometrial membrane with a balloon which offer several advantages compared to present used system. Specially, it does not require dilatation of uterus's cervix and it reduces the pain. The investigator make hypothesis that the use of the system Lina LibrataTM does not cause pain and can be thus used under local anesthetic in ambulatory surgery. With the aim of developing ambulatory care, the main objective of this prospective monocentric study is to estimate the efficiency of Lina LibrataTM system in the treatment of functional idiopathic menometrorrhagia. Secondary objectives are to estimate the pain during the procedure, the rate of per and post-complications and quality of life.
Objectives: To assess if the administration of ulipristal acetate (UPA) in users of the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) with breakdown bleeding or abnormal bleeding, could be able to inhibit the bleeding and if this effect will be sustainable up to three months after treatment. Material and methods: A total of 32 women aged between 18-45 years, users of the LNG-IUS with breakdown bleeding, abnormal bleeding or prolonged bleeding (bleeding more than 14 days) or episodes of bleeding with intervals less than 24 days). The study is an experimental, double blind randomized (16 women will receive UPA 5 mg/day/5 days; 16 women will receive placebo/1 time/day/5 day). The women will invited to participated at the Family Planning clinic at the day they consulted with the complaint of bleeding. That day they will allocated at random to UPA or placebo group. They will oriented to fill out a bleeding calendar through 90 days after the pill intake. In addition a ultrasonography scan will be perform before the first day of pill intake and at 90 days after. Statistical analysis: A a pilot study the sample was estimated in 26 women (13 at each group) based at the estimative of success of 0.95 with UPA and 0.35 with placebo with significance of 0.05 and power of 80%. The sociodemographic characteristics will be analyzed as mean and SD and will compared through Mann-Whitney, Yates χ2 and Fisher exact tests as apropriate. Also, a regression analysis (Poisson analysis) with the dependent significant variables. The established level of significance will be p < 0.05.
Two hundred & forty patients aged from 40 to 50 years - complaining of heavy menstrual bleeding that is unresponsive to hormonal lines of treatment & requesting conservative surgical approach- were randomized into 3 groups; group A (Surgicel group) in which 80 patients underwent formal curettage followed by insertion of 4 pieces of Surgicel inside the uterine cavity, group B (Thermal balloon ablation group) in which 80 patients underwent thermal balloon ablation using bipolar radiofrequency electrical energy (Novasure), group C (Endometrial resection group) in which 80 patients underwent transcervical Hysteroscopic endometrial resection.All patients were followed up over duration of 18 months following the procedure (at 3,6,12 & 18 months). Primary outcome included amenorrhea rates
Intrauterine contraceptive device is the most commonly reversible method used among women of reproductive age worldwide. Almost one in five married contraceptive users is currently using Intrauterine contraceptive device. The Egyptian demographic and health survey results indicate that 30% of currently married women interviewed in the Egyptian demographic and health survey were using Intrauterine contraceptive device. Main reasons for discontinuation of Intrauterine contraceptive device as cited by women were excessive bleeding per vagina 39.68%, abdominal pain 38.62%, low backache35.97%.
As combat women soldiers are required to more intensive daily activity the investigators believe that the impact of menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea and its clinical consequence (as characterized by, anemia iron deficiency and reduced quality of life)) on personal performance will be more significant in combat women soldiers compared to non-combat women soldiers. Using cohorts from the same environment will enable the investigators to better study the effect of menorrhagia and dysmenorrhea eliminating other uncontrolled factors, such as nutrition. The study does not include any intervention.
