Lifestyle modifications are recommended as first-line therapy in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, usual dietary and physical activity (PA) behaviors of women with PCOS remain uncertain, likely owing to controversy diagnostic criteria. Our objective was contrast the PA (n = 80) diagnosed by 2018 International Evidence-based Guideline for Assessment Management that controls 44). Study outcomes were intake, diet quality (Healthy Eating Index-2015), (questionnaire, waist-worn...
The relationship between diet quality and ovarian morphology has biological plausibility yet remains unclear was therefore evaluated. In a multicenter cross-sectional analysis, four dietary patterns were scored for 111 consecutive reproductive-aged women (18–45 years) using (1) Healthy Eating Index (HEI-2015); (2) alternative HEI-2010; (3) alternate Mediterranean Diet (aMED); (4) Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) indices. Ovarian volume (OV) follicle number per ovary (FNPO)...
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) report dissatisfaction their early medical care. Little is understood about factors that can encourage stronger patient-provider relationships and promote treatment adherence. To compare trust in physicians beliefs social support from health care providers between women without PCOS. Cross-sectional study online questionnaire. Medical clinic referral or broader community recruitment via advertising websites. Three hundred thirty-two US-based PCOS...
Do health-related knowledge, beliefs and self-efficacy differ between women with without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)?Women PCOS felt at greater risk for adverse health outcomes, yet believed a healthy lifestyle was less beneficial to prevent weight gain relative comparison group.Diet physical activity are often used treat PCOS, but there high attrition rates engagement in self-help methods. It is unclear whether unique psychosocial considerations that should be incorporated into these...
Sterilization is a necessary step during the processing of biomaterials, but it can affect materials' functional characteristics. This study characterizes effects three commonly used sterilization processes—autoclaving (heat-based), ethanol (EtOH; chemical-based), and ultraviolet (UV; radiation-based)—on chemical, mechanical, printability, biocompatibility properties alginate, widely biopolymer for drug delivery, tissue engineering, other biomedical applications. Sterility assessment tests...
Conventional diet assessment approaches such as the 24-hour self-reported recall are burdensome, suffer from bias, and inaccurate in estimating energy intake. Wearable sensor technology, coupled with advanced algorithms, is increasingly showing promise its ability to capture behaviors that provide useful information for calorie macronutrient intake.This paper aimed summarize current technological monitoring intake on basis of expert opinion a workshop panel make recommendations advance...
Abstract INTRODUCTION We report the feasibility and cognitive outcomes of a stage 1b randomized trial testing 3 months home‐delivered high polyphenol snacks (e.g., nuts, berries) online speed processing training among older adults with 12 or fewer years education. METHODS One hundred eighty participants were to polyphenol‐rich training, control games, games. The recruitment, retention, adherence (RRA) change in composite score. RESULTS Feasibility goals for RRA met. Improvements score...
As the United States adjusts to necessity of ecological sustainability, buildings play an important role because their use resources—and they are potent nonverbal symbols new societal values. The David Brower Center in Berkeley, California, strives be a model for sustainability. Environmental impact is often focus those concerned with but here, additionally, designers aim raise public awareness sustainability through building. For this reason, building became site postoccupancy evaluation...
Women with a history of adverse pregnancy outcomes have higher risk coronary heart disease. Emerging evidence suggests that women preeclampsia different pattern overall atherosclerosis and they at the time myocardial infarction (MI) more frequently present ST-segment elevation MI (STEMI) compared to no such history.
Abstract Background Current evidence supports the adoption of healthy diet and physical activity (PA) behaviors in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), given positive effects those on well-being. An improved understanding associations between PA PCOS is needed to ascertain whether tailored dietary recommendations are for this population. Thus, we investigated its isolated features. Methods Cross-sectional study. Of 748 women who were included study from Coronary Artery Risk...
Overeating interventions and research often focus on single determinants use subjective or nonpersonalized measures. We aim to (1) identify automatically detectable features that predict overeating (2) build clusters of eating episodes theoretically meaningful clinically known problematic behaviors (e.g., stress eating), as well new phenotypes based social psychological features.
Circulating melatonin is elevated in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS); whether circadian disruptions coincide sleep disturbances PCOS or their symptom severity unclear. The objective of this observational pilot study was to determine altered patterns excretion are associated reduced quality versus without PCOS. Participants underwent a clinical assessment, transvaginal ultrasound, and reproductive hormone testing. Morning evening urine samples were assayed for urinary...
