Filter by:Dietary fat plays a crucial role as a modifiable risk factor influencing both non-fasting lipaemia and vascular reactivity. Notably, the intake of dietary saturated fatty acids (SFAs) has been associated with adverse effects on blood lipid profiles, whereas increased consumption of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) has shown potential to improve lipid health. Pomegranate seed oil (PSO) stands out due to its high content of conjugated α-linolenic acids (CLnAs). However, research comparing the impact of these fatty acids on postprandial vascular function, particularly in postmenopausal women, remains limited. A cross-over, single-blind, randomised acute postprandial study will be conducted in 15 healthy postmenopausal women. Participants will be assigned to consume the test meals either a placebo (50 g of mixed fat; 4:0.5:0.5 palm oil: rapeseed oil: safflower oil) or PSO (40 g of mixed fat and 10g of PSO) in random order on 2 separate occasions, with 4-6 weeks between each study visit. The anthropometric, blood pressure, and arterial stiffness, will be taken for each study visit. Blood samples will be collected for the measurement of fasting lipids, glucose, insulin, inflammatory markers, and whole blood culture. The findings from this study will contribute to the evidence base on how consuming meals rich in PSO influence the level of blood lipids as well as other biomarkers for cardiovascular disease.
Dry eye disease (DED) is a growing public health concern affecting quality of life and visual function, with a significant socio-economic impact. It is more prevalent in the females and is being specifically in the menopausal and postmenopausal age group. Bioptron light therapy is efficient in the elimination of allergic reactions, signs and symptoms of dry eye improving capillary circulation, immunity stimulation, relieving pain and establishing balance of tissue electromagnetic field
the aim of this study is to investigate the effect of aquatic Exercises on balance in healthy postmenopausal women .
- To investigate the performance of cytology, extended genotyping, p16/Ki67 dual stain cytology, DNA methylation and viral load as triage markers in post-menopausal HPV-screen-positive women aged 50-64 years in the organized screening program to predict the risk of developing CIN2+. (work package 1) - To investigate the performance of cytology, extended genotyping, p16/Ki67 dual stain cytology, DNA methylation and viral load six months after cervical excision to predict the long-term risk of residual/recurrent CIN2+ lesions among women aged 23-64 (work-package 2)
Postmenopausal women are at a risk of excessive weight gain, bone loss, hypertension, and metabolic syndrome. Obesity-induced chronic low-grade inflammation is initiated by excess nutrients in metabolic cells. Recent studies have indicated tocotrienols (one kind of vitamin E, a potent antioxidant) supplement may be good for mitigating negative impacts of obesity in postmenopausal women. The purpose of the study is to examine the effect of 24-week tocotrienols on obesity-associated outcome measurements in postmenopausal women. The investigators will enroll 60 qualified women at the start of the study and randomly assigned to no tocotrienols (placebo) or tocotrienols group for 24 weeks. Obesity-associated measurements will be recorded using blood, urine, adipose tissue, and fecal samples. All data will be analyzed statistically.
Animal, in vitro and small-scale studies have suggested that creatine supplementation may augment bone mass. This clinical trial aims to investigate the effects of a 2-year creatine supplementation protocol on bone mass in postmenopausal women.
Nowadays,hysteroscopy is a golden standard procedure to describe the morphology of uterine cavity and investigate of abnormal uterine bleeding . The success of the procedure is based on the distension of the cavity . It can cause pain and discomfort and sometimes the procedure fails. . There are two techniques to make the procedure , one with gas and the other with saline solution. Objective: to compare two techniques concerning pain , procedure duration and image quality
Hormonal changes associated with menopause, chronological aging, and lifestyle, especially physical inactivity, may increase the risk of metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women. Women exhibiting "the metabolic syndrome" have multiple coronary artery disease risk factors, including insulin resistance, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension. This study will be conducted to test the hypotheses: (1) physical activity and physical fitness levels may have effects on individual risk factors of the metabolic syndrome in postmenopausal women; (2) endurance exercise training may have a favorable effect on components of the metabolic risk variables in these women. In this study, the associations among physical activity (including daily energy expenditure and energy expenditure from moderate to vigorous activity), cardiopulmonary fitness level, and metabolic risk profile of the women will be assessed. The investigators will perform a randomized trial to compare the effects of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise training regimens on metabolic risk factors. Postmenopausal women who exhibit at least one risk factor for metabolic syndrome will be randomized in the exercise group or control groups. Metabolic risk factors (e.g., body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio, glucose, insulin, blood pressure, lipid profile and adiponectin level) will be measured at baseline, and 12 weeks of the study. Differences from baseline to follow-up will be calculated and compared across groups. Results of this study may help health care providers providing advice to postmenopausal women for life style changes to reduce risk of insulin resistance, coronary heart disease, and diabetes.
