NCT ID: NCT05401630 Recruiting - Post-menopause Clinical Trials

Mental Stress Reactivity in Women With CMD

Start date: July 19, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction (CMD) occurs when there are problems in small blood vessels/arteries in the heart and symptoms of persistent chest pain that impact women. There are an estimated 3 million women in the US with CMD and about 100,000 new cases annually. This research will investigate whether the stress response physiology and autonomic function in response to mental stress are different in women with CMD compared to other groups. The autonomic nervous system (ANS) controls normally involuntary activities, such as heart rate, respiration (breathing), body temperature, blood pressure, and urinary function. This study will also examine how chronic and daily life mental stress affects the heart, blood vessels. Participants from this study will be recruited mainly from Emory Healthcare-associated hospitals, the Emory Heart Disease Center for Prevention, and Emory Healthcare outpatient cardiology clinics. Participants will have physical exams, blood tests, stress tests, exercise tests, surveys, questionnaires, and images taken of their hearts and blood vessels. They will be asked to take home devices to monitor their autonomic function, sleep and to track their mood, stress level, and symptoms for one week. Data and specimens will be saved for future research.

NCT ID: NCT05188027 Recruiting - Type 1 Diabetes Clinical Trials

Aerobic vs Resistance Exercise in Post-menopausal Women With Type 1 Diabetes

Start date: November 16, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Participants will be asked to wear a continuous glucose monitor for at least three days on three separate occasions. One testing session will be a no-exercise resting control session (90 minutes). One will be a moderate aerobic exercise session (30 minutes of exercise, 60 minutes of recovery), and the third will be a moderate weight-lifting session (~30 minutes of exercise, 60 minutes of recovery).The investigators will measure changes in blood glucose during exercise by drawing blood during and after exercise. Post-exercise glucose trends will be examined using continuous glucose monitoring.

NCT ID: NCT00420940 Completed - Osteoporosis Clinical Trials

The Influence of Vibration on Bone Mineral Density in Women Who Have Weak Bones After Menopause

Start date: November 2006
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will examine whether whole-body vibration slows down bone loss in healthy postmenopausal women with osteopenia. Whole-body vibration is a promising novel therapy that involves standing on a platform which produces extremely small and fast up-and-down movements. Some but not all research studies have found that whole-body vibration slowed down bone loss in postmenopausal women. One of the reasons why different studies found different results may be because they used various speeds of vibration. This study looks at how different speeds of whole-body vibration influence bone mineral density differently in postmenopausal women who have osteopenia. Two hundred postmenopausal women will take part in this 12-month study. Women will be randomly assigned into three groups (67 women per group) and these groups will be compared. Group 1 will receive very fast whole-body vibration, Group 2 will receive fast whole-body vibration, and Group 3 will not receive whole-body vibration. We will look at various bone mineral density and bone quality measurements, obtained with three different types of technologies, at the beginning of the study and at 12 months of follow-up. The hypothesis of this study is that the in comparison to Group 3 (no vibration), Groups 1 and 2 will experience reduced bone loss over 12 months, and that the greatest reduction in bone loss will be experienced by Group 1. The results of this study will help us determine whether whole-body vibration at different speeds produces variable effects on bone, hence explaining the inconsistency of the results obtained in previous studies.
