There was significant improvement in high-density #lipoprotein with weighted standardised mean difference and effect size=−1.06 (−1.83 to −0.30), p=0.006. We have also observed a significant reduction in low-density lipoprotein and total cholesterol with weighted standardised mean difference and effect size=−0.97 (−1.58 to −0.36), p=0.002, and = −0.78 (−1.34 to −0.22), p=0.007, respectively. There was a… Continue reading Does chronic high-intensity #endurance training have an effect on cardiovascular markers of active populations and athletes? Systematic review and meta-analysis

Effect of hormone replacement therapy on #atherogenic lipid profile in postmenopausal women
..Recent studies suggest that hormone replacement therapy (#HRT) is cardioprotective when initiated early after menopause, but the mechanisms involved are still unclear. One-hundred and forty postmenopausal women <70 years were included in EVTET and randomized either to active treatment (one tablet of 2 mg estradiol and 1 mg norethisterone acetate daily) (n = 71) or placebo (n = 69). Our study show… Continue reading Effect of hormone replacement therapy on #atherogenic lipid profile in postmenopausal women
