Tolerability of hormonal treatments in acute hepatic porphyria patients

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Acute hepatic porphyria (AHP) flares have been associated with female hormones and the use of hormonal treatments. Women with AHP are traditionally advised to avoid exogenous oestrogen and progesterone, limiting options for contraception and management of menorrhagia, dysmenorrhoea and menopausal symptoms.

Exploring the associations of overweight and obesity with pregnancy outcomes in type 1 and type 2 diabetes: An Australian retrospective cohort study

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To explore the associations of maternal overweight/obesity and pre‐pregnancy body mass index (BMI) on glycemia and pregnancy outcomes in women with pregestational type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Research Design and Methods We examined prospectively collected data (2010–2019) involving 264 singleton

Unfit Mothers Only: Medical Gatekeeping of Second‐ and Third‐Trimester Abortion in France

Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In France, abortion is available without restriction as to reason until 14 weeks of pregnancy. Beyond this limit, medical authorization is required and “medical termination of pregnancy” is permitted for fetal malformation or serious danger to the woman's health, including from “psychosocial distress.” Little is known about how ...

No difference in mean middle cerebral artery blood velocity responses between lower‐ and upper‐body unilateral resistance exercise in untrained individuals

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dynamic resistance exercise (RE) produces sinusoidal fluctuations in blood pressure that are mirrored by middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCAv). However, whether lower‐ or upper‐body RE elicits a differential cerebrovascular response has not yet been examined.

Quantifying microvascular responses to local heating using optical coherence tomography: Comparison between skin sites and sex differences

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Summary of the study design, metholodgy, results and conclusions. Abstract Due to a lack of technical capacity to directly visualise and quantify microvessels in the skin, little is known regarding regional and/or sex differences. We compared diameter, velocity, flow and density at four regional sites using a novel optical coherence tomography (OCT ...

Myths and methodologies: Optimising experimental rigour in heat adaptation research: Menstrual status classification and scheduling approaches

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Women remain underrepresented in thermal physiology research, particularly within studies examining physiological adaptation to hot environments. Among the limited research that includes female participants, few studies have appropriately classified menstrual status of their participants or rigorously accounted for ovarian hormone influences ...

The effects of a (poly)phenol‐rich food intervention on markers of exercise‐induced inflammation and oxidative stress: A randomised controlled trial

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined whether consuming a (poly)phenol‐rich food before strenuous muscle‐damaging exercise can modify post‐exercise markers of inflammation and oxidative stress. Using a double‐blinded, randomised, placebo‐controlled, between‐subjects design, 26 recreationally active males (n = 15) and females (n = 11) consumed higher‐(poly ...

Women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus have preserved sensory nerve‐mediated dilatation in the cutaneous microvasculature

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have a greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease than healthy control (HC) women who had an uncomplicated pregnancy. Microvascular endothelial dysfunction, mediated by reduced nitric oxide (NO)‐dependent mechanisms, persists after GDM.
