Relation between sex hormones and serum lipoprotein and lipoprotein(a) concentrations in premenopausal obese women.
Lipoprotein(a) (Lp[a]) is generally considered to be a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease, but little is known about the possible influence of obesity on the circulating levels of this lipoprotein. The present study was undertaken to examine this aspect in 136 menstrually active women by comparing the serum concentrations of Lp(a) between 72 obese and 64 age-matched nonob...
متن کاملMenstrual cycle irregularities are associated with testosterone levels in healthy premenopausal women.

We examined the association between testosterone and menstrual irregularities in a nonclinical population of 194 healthy premenopausal women, none of whom reported chronic health conditions. Women provided saliva samples for assay of salivary testosterone, and responded to ...

متن کاملEffect of dietary fiber intake on lipoprotein cholesterol levels independent of estradiol in healthy premenopausal women.
High-fiber diets are associated with improved lipid profiles. However, pre- and postmenopausal women respond differently to fiber intake, suggesting that endogenous estradiol mediates the effect. The authors' objective was to determine the direct effect of fiber intake on lipoprotein cholesterol levels independent of estradiol among premenopausal women. The BioCycle Study, a prospective cohort ...
متن کاملThe association between cadmium, lead and mercury blood levels and reproductive hormones among healthy, premenopausal women.
BACKGROUND Cadmium, lead and mercury have been identified in human follicular fluid and ovarian tissue, and have been associated with adverse reproductive outcomes in epidemiologic studies; however, few studies have examined the relationship between blood metal levels and reproductive hormones. METHODS Among 252 premenopausal women aged 18-44 years, we examined the association between blood m...
