Filter by:This research project can contribute to a deeper understanding of injury patterns among professional female ice-hockey players allowed to body check. An understanding of common injury types and mechanisms aids the clinician in diagnosis and management. This information can guide preventative strategies in the areas of education, coaching, rule enforcement, rule modifications, equipment improvement, and sportsmanship. Today, ice hockey is a sport associated with many severe injuries that not only causes suffering and lower quality of life for the athlete, but also costs society a lot of money. Reducing the number and severity of sport-related injuries is therefore of importance. Knowledge of the injury epidemiology of women's hockey could also contribute to better preventive training programs and other injury preventive actions in the sport. Currently, only a minority of all sports medicine research is made on female study participants (26). This research project has the possibility to gain more knowledge about the female athlete, not only applicable for elite hockey-players, but also for female athletes in different disciplines and in youth teams. Knowledge of factors associated with injury could also contribute to better injury preventive actions and highlight subgroups in extra need of future preventive interventions.
Introduction: One of the consequences of aging is the decrease in physical performance which can affect the quality of life of older people. Although physical exercise is beneficial in improving this problem, older women do not seem to benefit as much as men. In this sense, the use of ergonomic aids by women could compensate for these issues. Thus, green tea has shown beneficial effects on physical performance in athletes through, among others, improving blood flow and vasodilation, mitochondrial respiration, calcium management, glucose and amino acid uptake, lipid oxidation, modulation of muscle damage, antioxidant effect, and anabolic and catabolic hormones, activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, etc. Therefore, the deterioration of physical performance and quality of life of green tea. Objective: To analyze the effect of supplementation with 1 g/day green tea extract (500 mg of polyphenols) for 10 weeks on quality of life values, physical performance (grip strength, walking speed, and resistance), and health biomarkers (biochemical, hematological, and hormonal) in women over 60 years of age who follow a physical training program. Methods: A total of 20 female volunteers between 60 and 73 years old (age: 65.9±4.58 years, BMI: 25.09±3.24 and body fat percentage: 32.54±6.39) who followed a physical activity adapted to their age and abilities are the members of this study. The volunteers were divided into two groups: placebo (CG; n = 10) and supplemented with 1 g/day of green tea (GI; n = 10). Different physical tests were performed (grip strength, walking speed and resistance) and the quality of life questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF) was passed and health biomarkers (biochemical, hematological, and hormonal) were analyzed at the beginning (T1) and at the end of the 10 weeks of intervention (T2).
The objective of this study is to compare the effect of education through a mobile application with medical and nutritional reinforcement on the metabolic control of Mexican patients with type 2 diabetes attending primary care clinics in Mexico. The research question is: What is the effect of education through a mobile application with medical and nutritional reinforcement vs. nutritional and medical reinforcement, versus an educational platform to influence the metabolic control of patients with type 2 diabetes? Multicenter clinical trial in six family medicine units of the Mexican Institute of Social Security. These selected units are: UMF 9, UMF 28, UMF 7, UMF 1, UMF 9 and UMF 10. Patients with type 2 diabetes will be randomly assigned to the educational intervention through the educational site, (n=160 patients), two clinics will be assigned for the use of the mobile App and the educational site (n=160 patients), and two clinics will be part of the control group (n=160 patients).
Oocyte quality is a basic parameter that affects embryo quality and therefore it influences the outcome of assisted reproduction. It has been suggested that oocyte quality is improved by the intake of vitamins and antioxidants. Ova-Max is a dietary supplement that consists of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants which improve women's oocytes by preventing oxidative stress. Specifically, Ovamax includes Chasteberry, Melatonin, Myo-Inositol, Folic Acid, Co-Enzyme Q10, Vitamin E, L-Arginine, Grape seed extract and Alpha-lipoic Acid. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of Ova-max intake on oocyte quality in women undergoing In Vitro Fertilization. According to the research hypothesis the administration of Ova-Max for three months increases oocyte quality in women undergoing intracellular sperm injection after ovarian stimulation and oocyte retrieval.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the differences between men and women undergoing cardiac surgery. We will look at perioperative factors such as body weight, body surface area, previous medical history, pharmacokinetics, transfusion, coagulation, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) related factors, cardiac function, inotropic requirements, risk, and outcome scores as well as morbidity and mortality at 30 and 90 days, 1, 5, and 10 years.
Objective: To determine the effect of strength training in inertial machines, on SJ CMJ and CMJ with arms; in youth volleyball players from the city of Cartago. Methodology: A quasi-experimental study of quantitative order was carried out and takes up an empirical-analytical approach, quasi-experimental with pre-test - post-test evaluation. 32 female volleyball players, belonging to the minor category of the Fénix G Club of the city of Cartago Valle Results: Both groups showed significant improvements in jump height, flight time, strength and power in the protocol that was carried out during the 12 weeks of intervention, but there was no statistically significant difference between the control groups (P = 0.356). , experimental (P = 0.984) Conclusions: Keywords: Inertial machines, Squat jump, Countermovent Jump, Abalakov
The influence of music on movement velocity and power during strength training have been poorly investigated, and specifically in women there is no evidence of an increase in strength performance due to the influence of music. Hypothesis: Listening to trap or reggaeton music will improve jumping ability, as well as movement velocity and power, muscular endurance, motivation and perception of effort in trained women during the performance of back-squats.
Ultrasonography will be used to determine the total blood flow to and from the uterus. This is done by measuring the blood vessels coming from and going to the uterus. This wil hopefully prove viable and open the possibility to further research in the clinical relevance of these measurements.
Single Dose Crossover Comparative Bioavailability Study of Ethinyl Estradiol/Etonogestrel Vaginal Ring (Delivering 0.015 mg/0.12 mg Per Day) Worn for 21 Days in Healthy Female Subjects
This clinical study is prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical trail, which entitled transcranial electrical stimulation for the treatment of acute tinnitus approved by Sun Yat-sen University, and intends to recruit 86 patients with sudden deafness and tinnitus. For acute subjective tinnitus, a common otological disease, the study gave the experimental group patients received tDCS with electrodes positioned over the left temporal cortex for 5 days. To assess the efficacy of conventional medical therapy and tDCS by comparing changes in anterior and posterior tinnitus-related subjective scale scores, such as THI, VAS, BAI, BDI, PSQI, and hearing recovery, in patients who received tDCS, to determine whether tDCS is effective in improving acute tinnitus, and whether it is superior to conventional tinnitus treatment. In addition, the study will continue to follow patients for 1 month,3 months, and 6 months after the end of treatment to observe the long-term sustained efficacy of tDCS. This clinical trail will also evaluate tDCS from the perspective of compliance and safety, and explore the factors affecting the efficacy of this therapy.
