background: research demonstrates that most of the menopausal symptoms and problems are the reflection of individual andsocial circumstances rather than the endocrine events of the menopause. as majority of women live 30 years or more through postmenopausal period, treatment and following up their problems during this period is among the main duties of a midwife. the aim of this study is to det...

Neurogenic hypertension results from the removal of inhibitory baroreceptor afferent input to vasomotor systems in the central nervous system. We sought to determine whether the bilateral destruction of neurons in the rostral ventrolateral or rostral ventromedial medulla, made using microinjections of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (30 nmol in 200 nL), would block the acute increase in arterial press...

Subjective thermal comfort plays a critical role in body temperature regulation since this represents the primary stimulus for behavioral thermoregulation. Although both core (Tc) and skin-surface (Tsk) temperatures are known afferent inputs to the thermoregulatory system, the relative contributions of Tc and Tsk to thermal comfort are unknown. We independently altered Tc and Tsk in human subje...

background : postmenopausal hot flash is a common disease amongst women with high prevalence of 75%. hormone replacement therapy (hrt) is a well-known relief of symptoms which has disadvantages such as side effects and contraindication for certain types of hormone related diseases and breast or estrogen related cancers. one of the alternatives is acupuncture which is an east asian and more spec...

results the mean age of the respondents was 52.27 years (sd = 3.84). the average scores of their vasomotor, psychosocial, physical, and sexual dimensions were 3.86, 2.30, 2.44, and 1.35, respectively. sociodemographic dimensions, such as smaller age, being married, having a lower education level, and having a higher number of children, were related to sexual symptoms. vasomotor symptoms were re...

objective the aim of this study was to determine the effect of revival soymilk consumption and moderate exercise on vasomotor symptoms, total antioxidant capacity (tac) and alkaline phosphates activity in postmenopausal women. materials and methods in this study, daily for 3 months, 37 postmenopausal women (mean age = 52.2± 4.6 years) were randomly assigned to soymilk (n=15), exercise +soymilk ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The study of the vasomotor effect of local anesthetics (LA) is of paramount importance for the analysis of the occurrence of cardiotoxic and neurotoxic effects, and drug interactions. In order to find a safer drug than racemic bupivacaine, this study aimed to analyze digital infrared imaging of acute vasomotor effect of bupivacaine and levobupivacaine in rats intraperi...

BACKGROUND The mechanism of death in sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) remains unclear. Progressive bradycardia is the pre-eminent terminal event, suggesting that circulatory failure might be a crucial factor. Vasomotor tone regulates the circulatory system by controlling blood volume distribution while maintaining venous return and blood pressure. AIM To examine whether prone sleeping, the...

1. Sympathetic vasomotor nerves play a major role in determining the level of arterial blood pressure and the distribution of cardiac output. The present review will discuss briefly the central regulatory mechanisms that control the sympathetic outflow to the cardiovascular system in the short and long term. 2. In the short term, the sympathetic vasomotor outflow is regulated by: (i) homeostati...

Purpose: This study systematically reviewed the effects of physical activity on depression and various menopausal symptoms in middle-aged women. We aimed to identify as a useful intervention for mitigating physiological psychological challenges associated with menopause promoting healthy aging.Methods: Electronic searches were conducted MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, Cochrane Library databases using ...
