Aptamer-based analyses of plasma proteome in individuals with post-Covid condition who underwent tailored physical activity
Introduction: Post-COVID condition (PCC) encompasses a spectrum of clinical symptoms affecting multiple organs that persist for >3 months after resolution of the initial SARS-CoV-2 infection. The complex nature of PCC symptoms makes it difficult to decipher the mechanistic basis of disease and establish efficient pharmacological interventions. However, non-pharmacological approaches such as personalized physical exercise regimen has been shown to…
Cohort Profile
The Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) was established to understand and address the needs of an aging population.1–3 Overall aims are to examine aging as a dynamic process; to investigate the inter-relationship among intrinsic and extrinsic factors from mid-life to older age; and to capture the transitions, trajectories and profiles of aging.4 A central objective in creating the CLSA was to provide national infrastructure and build capa…
Body mass index to predict fat mass and metabolic syndrome severity
Background: Body mass index (BMI) is often criticised since it doesn't consider sex, age and ethnicity, which may affect the height scaling exponent of the equation. Aims: First, to identify specific height scaling exponents (α) based on sex, age and ethnicity. Second, to assess the performance of the current vs the proposed BMI equations (1) to predict total fat mass (TFM) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) severity and (2) to correctly identify obes…
Lifestyle Inequalities
Excess weight and menopause are two major factors increasing aging women's vulnerability to chronic diseases. However, social position and socioeconomic status have also been identified as major determinants influencing both health behaviors and the development of such diseases. This study focuses on the socioeconomic variations of behavioral risk factors of chronic diseases in aging women. By drawing on Bourdieu's sociocultural theory of practic…
Women, weight, poverty and menopause
Socioeconomic inequalities in health persist despite major investments in illness prevention campaigns and universal healthcare systems. In this context, the increased risks of chronic diseases of specific sub-groups of vulnerable populations should be further investigated. The objective of this qualitative study is to examine the interaction between socioeconomic status (SES) and body weight in order to understand underprivileged women's increas…
Dynapenic Abdominal Obesity and Metabolic Risk Factors in Adults 50 Years of Age and Older
DYN/AO older adults might be at greater risk of metabolic alterations than those displaying dynapenia alone or those with neither abdominal obesity nor dynapenia
Effects of rapid or slow weight loss on body composition and metabolic risk factors in obese postmenopausal women. A pilot study
Changes in Objective and Self-Reported Measures of Physical Capacity After an Intervention in Obese Older Women
The aim of this study was to determine if objective and self-reported measures of physical capacity are two equivalent methods to detect changes following an intervention in obese older women. 36 obese women aged between 55 and 75 years participated in a 3-month study with the aim of improving physical capacity by caloric restriction and/or resistance training. Physical capacity was measured objectively with 10 different tests and self-reported w…
Relationship Between Sarcopenia and Fracture Risks in Obese Postmenopausal Women
It is known that obesity is inversely correlated with fracture risk. It remains unclear if a low muscle mass (sarcopenia) modulates the relationship between obesity and bone mass density. Twenty-seven obese women were matched for total fat mass (+/- 0.5 kg) and age (+/- 4 yrs) and divided in 3 equal groups: class II sarcopenic, class I sarcopenic, and nonsarcopenic. Body composition (DXA) and dietary intake were measured. Our results suggest that…
Pre-Exercise Hyperhydration Delays Dehydration and Improves Endurance Capacity during 2 h of Cycling in a Temperate Climate
Whether the use of pre-exercise hyperhydration could improve the performance of athletes who do not hydrate sufficiently during prolonged exercise is still unknown. We therefore compared the effects of pre-exercise hyperhydration and pre-exercise euhydration on endurance capacity, peak power output and selected components of the cardiovascular and thermoregulatory systems during prolonged cycling. Using a randomized, crossover experimental design…
Past-Users of HRT are Osteopenic Four Months After Discontinuation
Hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) helps to prevent osteoporosis. The effect of short-term discontinuation of a long-term HRT on bone mineral density (BMD) in healthy post-menopausal women is unknown. Fifteen women on HRT (HRT users), 17 who never used HRT (non-users) and 8 former HRT users (past-HRT users) were recruited. BMD was measured by DXA. Our results allow to hypothesize that BMD may decline after short-term HRT discontinuation, which wo…
