The primary outcomes were the levels of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone. Results: Eleven studies were included (5 randomized controlled trials and 6 quasi-experimental studies). The effects of exercise on free estradiol concentration and serum progesterone level were not significant [p = 0.37 ...
Supernumerary sex chromosome aneuploidies (sSCA) are characterized by the presence of one or more additional sex chromosomes in an individual’s karyotype; they affect around 1 in 400 individuals. Although there is high variability, each sSCA subtype has a characteristic set of cognitive and physical...
To avoid confounding, 117 women taking estrogen were excluded from analysis. Both sexes experienced reductions in disease progression with lovastatin; there was no evidence of an overall sex x treatment interaction (P=0.72). When estimates of the sex-specific results were examined post hoc, women ...
Progesterone vs. estrogen Like progesterone, estrogen is a hormone that plays an important role in reproductive health. Estrogen is partly responsible for the development of secondary sex traits such as breasts and hips, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. ...

The catechol-o-methyltransferase (COMT) genetic variations produce pleiotropic behavioral/neuroanatomical effects. Some of these effects may vary among sexes. However, the developmental trajectories of COMT-by-sex interactions are unclear. Here we found
However, it is unclear whether the novel antidepressant, ketamine, has effects on bone markers in patients with depression and whether there are sex differences on these effects. Ketamine infusions may be associated with modulation of bone markers and may exert a positive effect on BMD in patients...
To a large extent, the age-related decline in jumping power is explicable by age-effects on body composition [7]. However, to the best of our knowledge, no previous study has yet compared age-related effects on muscle power between master athletes and a cohort matched in age, height and ...
The ∆ψm was determined via tetramethylrhodamine, methyl ester (TMRM) by taking the fluorescence ratio of the excitation/emission parameters: excitation/emission (572/590 nm)/(551/590 nm). The NAD(P)H/NAD(P)+ reduction states were measured via fluorescence using excitation/emission parameters...
