In particular, the association between abdominal weight and bone mineral content (BMC) and bone mineral density (BMD), independent of total weight and aerobic capacity, remains uncertain, especially in overweight and obese individuals.Methods: Trunk weight, total body fat mass, fat-free mass, BMC, and BMD of 33 premenopausal Latina women age 22 to 51 years from Los Angeles, California were measured using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Waist circumference (WC) was measured without clothing at the smallest circumference of the torso. Peak aerobic capacity (peak VO2) was determined by treadmill ergometry with direct measurement of oxygen consumption.Results: Partial correlations controlling for total body fat mass, fat-free mass, and peak VO2 revealed a significant inverse relationship between BMC and WC (r = -0.54, P < 0.05) but not between BMD and WC (r = -0.18, P = 0.41). Similarly, while controlling for total body fat, fat-free mass, and peak VO2, BMC was inversely associated with trunk fat (r = -0.75, P < 0.001), with trunk lean (r = -0.61, P < 0.05) and with total trunk weight (r = -0.75, P < 0.001); results were non-significant for BMD. When these analyses were repeated separately in overweight (n = 10) versus in the obese (n = 18) women, inverse relationships between BMC and trunk fat as well as between BMC and total trunk weight became stronger in the obese compared with the overweight women.Conclusion: Although general obesity may prevent osteoporosis, these findings suggest that abdominal obesity (ie, trunk weight) specifically and independently may adversely influence bone mass.","PeriodicalId":90142,"journal":{"name":"Clinical medicine insights.

Abnormal bleeding with progesterone/progestogen only, combined sequential, or combined continuous regimens may be corrected by changing the progestogen, adjusting the progestogen or estrogen/progestogen doses, or even switching the initial regimen to other formulation.Conclusion: To diminish the occurrence of abnormal bleeding during hormone therapy (HT), it is important to tailor the regimen to the needs of individual women and identify those with higher risk of bleeding. The use of new agents as adjuvant therapies for decreasing abnormal bleeding in women on HT awaits future studies.","PeriodicalId":90142,"journal":{"name":"Clinical medicine insights.

Scientifically compelling information was preferred; the use of too many colors and objects was considered distracting and reducing the seriousness of the information. The facts presented through a patient's photo of fetal alcohol syndrome and a graph impressed the participants, since they were tired of the illustrations found in many other materials. Pregnant women who are interested and motivated to learn about alcohol consumption valued the quality of the information, rather than visual appeal.Conclusions: Testing a draft leaflet with the target population before final development and dissemination is a critical component of an educational outreach effort. Incorporating feedback can help enhance the quality of the end product.","PeriodicalId":90142,"journal":{"name":"Clinical medicine insights.
