Clinical Trial Summary

Aquatic Exercise and traditional physical therapy are effective methods of treatment for gout and hypertension in menopausal women.


Clinical Trial Description

Menopause is defined as a point in time 12 months after a woman's last period. During the menopausal transition, changes in estrogen and progesterone levels affect not only vasomotor symptoms, sexual dysfunction, osteoporosis, and cardiovascular disease (CVD), but also uric acid level1. An association between menopausal status and hyperuricemia has been previously examined. A study using the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey showed a positive and independent association of menopause with hyperuricemia and gout. It's believed that estrogen has a protective effect that is removed at menopause, thus accounting for the rise in gout in women who are postmenopausal2. Hyperuricemia is a common biochemical abnormality resulting from excessive uric acid production or impaired clearance of uric acid. Although its pathophysiology is not fully understood, genetic, comorbid disease-related, and environmental (drug, diet, and toxic exposure-induced) factors are involved in hyperuricemia3. Gout is a multifactorial disease caused by hyperuricemia and monosodium urate crystals deposition. Pain typically comes on rapidly, reaching maximal intensity in less than 12 hours. The joint at the base of the big toe is affected in about half of cases4. ;
