The impact of exercise training on inflammatory markers in postmenopausal women: A systemic review and meta-analysis
2021, Experimental GerontologyCitation Excerpt :Adipose tissue, especially visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is the important source of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 and TNF-α, and CRP (Tilg and Moschen, 2006; Berg and Scherer, 2005; Gustafson et al., 2007; Forouhi et al., 2001; Park et al., 2010). Deposition of VAT increases in menopause, and can lead to the production and release of these inflammatory markers (Kershaw and Flier, 2004; Kanaley et al., 2001; Tchernof et al., 2004; Carr, 2003; Lee et al., 2009). Thus, a reduction in adipose tissue, especially VAT following exercise training, may play an important role in the reduced production of IL-6 and TNF-α, and consequently the circulating levels of these markers of inflammation.
Effect of aging, menopause, and age at natural menopause on the trend in body mass index: a 15-year population-based cohort
2019, Fertility and SterilityCitation Excerpt :Results of a longitudinal study showed that both energy intake and expenditure are declined during menopausal transition (36). Menopause and related depressive disorders may also influence physical activity, which can further increase fat mass and alter its distribution (37, 38). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first population-based cohort study with more than 15 years of short-interval follow-ups that evaluates ANM and its relation to the trend of BMI.
Visceral and Intrahepatic Fat Are Associated with Cardiometabolic Risk Factors Above Other Ectopic Fat Depots: The Framingham Heart Study
2018, American Journal of MedicineCitation Excerpt :It is well established that risk of cardiometabolic disease increases with both increasing age and fat accumulation, while accumulation of fat also increases with advanced age.10,27-30 In a similar context, demographic and lifestyle factors, such as sex, smoking status, alcohol use, physical activity, postmenopausal status, and hormone replacement therapy, are also considered as traditional risk factors for cardiometabolic disease that are also related to accumulation of fat.31-37 Accordingly, the relationships between fat measures and cardiometabolic risk factors are not uniform across individuals with various demographic and lifestyle factors.
