NCT ID: NCT01443455 Completed - Post Menopausal Clinical Trials

Adherence and Health Effects of Video Dance in Postmenopausal Women

Start date: January 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a 6 month randomized clinical trial comparing video dance, brisk walking and delayed entry controls. The interventions have two phases; a 12 week initiation phase with substantial structure and supervision, followed by a 12 week transition phase, with reduced structure and supervision. Participants are 168 overweight or obese, sedentary postmenopausal women aged 50 to 65; 60 in each exercise arm and 48 in the wait list control group. The following research questions will be assessed: 1. Is exercise adherence at 6 months better with video dance games compared to brisk walking? 2. Does video dance game exercise compared to wait list controls, induce beneficial changes in physical and mental health? 3. Does video dance game exercise compared to brisk walking better promote balance, attention and visual spatial skills, without loss of benefit to cardiovascular fitness? 4. Is video dance preferred to brisk walking for exercise among postmenopausal women? If so, who and why?

NCT ID: NCT00884143 Completed - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Observational Triveneto Study on the Use of Adjuvant Hormonal Therapies in the Treatment of Hormone-responsive Breast Cancer

TIME 2 CHANGE
Start date: July 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

There are different types of hormonal therapy medicines for the treatment of hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine the evolution of two types of hormonal treatment (the drug called "tamoxifen" and a group of medicines called "aromatase inhibitors") during two time periods of 12 months each, in years 2006 and 2008, in the northeast Italian regions. The study will include post-menopausal women who have initiated hormonal therapy medicines in 2006. The study will also verify the rate of implementation of the updated national and international recommendations for the use of adjuvant hormonal therapy in the hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer.

NCT ID: NCT00060736 Completed - Healthy Clinical Trials

The Effects of Estrogen Withdrawal on Mood Symptoms in Women

Start date: May 5, 2003
Phase:
Study type: Observational

This study evaluates the effects on mood when stopping estrogen replacement therapy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of estrogen levels on perimenopausal depression. This study will examine short-term withdrawal of estrogen in women whose mood had improved with estrogen therapy. Perimenopause-related mood disorders cause significant distress in a large number of women. Evidence suggests that estradiol may have beneficial effects in women with perimenopausal depression. However, the effect of declining estradiol secretion during perimenopause has not been fully examined. Peri- and post-menopausal women who experience a remission of perimenopause-related depression symptoms while on estrogen therapy and a control group of healthy volunteers on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) will be switched from their current form of HRT to estradiol for a 3-week period; volunteers will also complete symptom ratings to confirm the absence of mood symptoms. Participants will then be randomly assigned to either continue estradiol or take a placebo (an inactive pill) for an additional 3 weeks. Mood ratings will be used to determine response to estradiol withdrawal. ...
