Filter by:The concept of a digital detox, involving a deliberate reduction or elimination of digital device usage, has emerged as a potential strategy to mitigate the adverse effects of technology on mental and physical well-being. However, the specific effects of a structured digital detox program on psychological distress, psychosocial factors, menopause symptoms, and overall physical health in a community context remain underexplored. This study seeks to address this gap by conducting a real-world trial, examining the impact of a digital detox program tailored for women. By delving into the intricacies of how digital technology interacts with the unique challenges faced by women, this research aims to contribute valuable insights into the development of real-world-driven interventions that promote the holistic well-being of women in the digital age.
A combination of synergistic dietary supplements is hypothesized to significantly improve self-reported measures of menopausal symptoms when compared with a baseline without the intervention.
Many observational studies have demonstrated links between serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and cardiovascular risk (CVR) factors. Microvascular dysfunction relates not only to CVR but also to metabolic disease. Since cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in postmenopausal women, it would be relevant to confirm this relationship. Maybe further studies would show that the correction of hypovitaminosis D could minimize the CVR. Our objective with this clinical trail is to analyze if vitamin D status is related to microvascular function and conventional cardiovascular risk (CVR) factors in postmenopausal women. For that we enrolled, in a pilot cross-sectional study, 39 non-smokers, low CVR postmenopausal women, with less than 10 years of hypoestrogenism and associations of 25(OH)D to adiposity, blood pressure, fasting aldosterone, insulin, glucose and lipid profile, HOMA-IR, parathormone and microvascular function, assessed by laser-Doppler flowmetry at cutaneous site, were investigated.
The objective of the study is to determine the efficacy of 7-0940 in the management of genital skin conditions in female patients
Aim of the current study: To evaluate the effect of a14 day treatment period with local intravaginal application of an oxytocin-containing gel on vaginal atrophy, psychosexual and psychological/cognitive function, and metabolic, stress, and inflammatory parameters in Egyptian post-menopausal women
Palpitations occur in more than 25% of women as they approach menopause and after menopause. However, the etiology of menopausal palpitations has not been studied, and it is unknown whether palpitations in menopausal women are caused by underlying arrhythmias or other electrocardiographic (ECG) abnormalities. Objective: 1. The primary objective of this exploratory pilot study is to assess whether arrhythmias and/or other ECG abnormalities underlie symptomatic palpitations in peri- and postmenopausal women 2 The secondary objective is to better understand women's palpitations symptom experiences (describe the symptom, its dimensions (frequency, severity, distress, duration, temporal pattern, aggravating/alleviating factors), and any attempted or actual healthcare utilization related to the symptom (provider contacts, discussions, referrals; laboratory or other tests). In this study, 40 peri- and post-menopausal women will be enrolled to determine if they have underlying arrhythmias or other ECG abnormalities. n=20 peri/postmenopausal women who describe palpitations within the previous 2 weeks and a control group of n=20 peri/postmenopausal women who have not experienced palpitations within 6 months will be enrolled. All participants will undergo placement of a 14-day adhesive ECG monitoring patch [(Carnation Ambulatory Monitoring (CAM) patch, Bardy Diagnostics] on their chest. After wearing the patch for 14 days, the patch will be removed, and a 2nd 14-day patch will be placed, for a total of 28 days of ECG recording. Data from the adhesive ECG patches will be uploaded and an assessment of arrhythmias and other ECG changes will be made. In addition, all participants will undergo a semi-structured interview to obtain information on their palpitations symptoms experience.
The investigators are using a community-based participatory research (CBPR) model to develop a lifestyle intervention targeting weight loss that is specifically tailored to women in perimenopause.
The regulation of clitoral vascularization by sex steroids is still under-investigated. We aimed to explore the effects of 6 months transdermal Testosterone (T) therapy on clitoral color Doppler ultrasound (CDU) parameters in pre- and postmenopausal women with female sexual dysfunction (FSD). In order to do that, we retrospectively recruited n=81 women with FSD, divided into 4 groups according to different treatments followed as per clinical practice, for 6 months: transdermal systemic 2% T gel; local estradiol ovules; local non-hormonal moisturizers; transdermal T plus local estrogens. Our main hypothesis is that systemic T treatment is able to positively modulate clitoral blood flow in basal conditions, specifically to increase clitoral artery Peak systolic velocity (PSV).
During menopause, there is a decrease in a hormone estrogen, which leads to aging of the vagina. Vaginal aging includes changes in the type and amount of healthy bacteria in the vagina, inflammation and a breakdown of natural barriers that keep the vagina healthy and protected from infections. Some menopausal women develop a condition called vaginal atrophy, which causes vaginal dryness, irritation, pain with sex, and itching. We are testing whether an estradiol tablet placed inside the vagina will lead to fewer changes in the types of bacteria present in the vagina, improve vaginal atrophy symptoms and ultimately keep the vagina healthier for a longer. This is important for women with HIV as they are living longer, healthier, sexually active lives due to successful treatment with antiretrovirals.
Given the heightened cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk in post-menopausal women, studies are needed to explore novel, feasible methods for reducing risk in this population. Based on prior data, primarily in other populations, progressive resistance training is a promising candidate. This project will test the effectiveness of a practical, progressive resistance training regimen for lowering numerous CVD risk factors compared to both aerobic training and no exercise in post-menopausal women.
