Abstract Background/Aim Antiresorptive therapy represents a cornerstone in the management of osteoporosis and cancer‐related bone disease through suppression of osteoclast‐mediated bone resorption. As implant therapy becomes more common in aging populations, clinicians increasingly encounter patients receiving these medications, thus making their ...

Abstract Heat tolerance is known to be limited by high brain temperature, but most findings pertain to strenuous exercise following artificially altered baseline temperature or with limited opportunity for behaviour. Therefore, we investigated the hypotheses that thermal perceptions, hyperventilation and cerebrovascular responses would be exacerbated ...

Menopause and vascular endothelial health: Is it all about the oestrogen?
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a leading cause of mortality in women, and CVD risk is accelerated during the menopause transition. This acceleration has traditionally been attributed to the hallmark decline in oestradiol with menopause. However, the menopause transition is also characterized by changes in other sex hormones that exert effects

Fugu (Takifugu rubripes) is a commercially important fish in aquaculture in China, Japan, and Korea. Male fugu are highly prized compared to females because the mature testes are regarded as a delicacy, thus all-male populations are preferred in ...

Progestins and uterine leiomyoma
Myomas are the most frequent benign gynecological tumors and are responsible for several symptoms and complaints. Their etiology is unknown and their pathology and proliferation is poorly understood. Besides the importance of estrogens for development and growth of the myoma, progesterone seems to play an important role in the modulation of mitotic ...

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 ...

Passive heat intervention research in women: Systematic review and audit of female representation
Abstract Passive heat interventions (PHIs) are non‐exercise heat‐acclimation strategies that improve physiological markers associated with heat tolerance and reduce vulnerability to heat‐related illness, when exercise is not feasible. However, representation of female participants within this literature remains unclear.

Current approaches to diagnosing and preventing endometrial hyperplasia: A review
The problem of endometrial hyperplasia (EH) has been relevant for many years, primarily due to the association of abnormal endometrial proliferation with uterus malignancies. Endometrial cancer (EC) risk factors are known, with benign EH being one of the

Progestins exert their progestational activity by binding to the progesterone receptor (form A, the most active and form B, the less active) and may also interact with other steroid receptors (androgen, glucocorticoid, mineralocorticoid, estrogen). They can have important effects in other tissues besides the endometrium, including the breast, liver ...

Abstract figure legend The results from this study show that maximal cardiac output, stroke volume and leg blood flow are similar between highly trained females and males after normalisation to lean body mass (LBM). However, the 10% higher haemoglobin concentration ([Hb]) and arterial O2 content in males result in higher systemic and leg O2 delivery ...
