Forest 3 . 1 Research Center, St-François d’Assise Hospital (CHUQ), Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Biochemistry, and Family Medicine, Laval University, Quebec, Canada; 2 Research Center, St-François d’Assise Hospital (CHUQ), Department of Food Science and Nutrition, Laval University, Quebec, Canada; 3 Research Center, St-François d’Assise Hospital (CHUQ), Quebec, Canada; 4 Institute of Nutraceuticals and Functional Foods, Department of Food Science and Nutrition, Laval University, Quebec, Canada; 5 Centre for Research on Agri-food Economics, Department of Agri-food Economics and Consumer Sciences, Laval University, Quebec, Canada People with metabolic syndrome are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in women in Canada. Emerging evidence suggests that pulses may have protective effects on components of metabolic syndrome by improving lipid profile and glycemia. Objectives: To investigate the effect of consumption of pulses on the components of metabolic syndrome and fat mass on women with abnormal metabolic profile, through a “real life” randomized controlled trial. Methods: Between February and September 2007, 134 participants were randomized to consume during 16 weeks: 1) 750 ml of pulses per week or 2) control meals without pulses. Primary components of the metabolic syndrome (HDL-C, TG, blood pressure, glycemia, waist circumference) and fat mass were measured at the weeks 0, 8, 16 and 24. Secondary components of the metabolic syndrome (insulin, apo A1, apo B, Lp (a), fibrinogen, CRP, IL-6, TNF-α) were measured at weeks 0 and 16. Results: A total of 132 participant were included in the analysis. At week 16, both pulse and control diet reduced significantly waist circumference (p<0.05), apo B and fibrinogen. Only in pulse diet, fat mass reduced significantly. Primary and secondary components of metabolic syndrome and fat mass did not differ significantly between the two groups. Conclusions: In a “real life” context, pulses consumption produced a favourable effect on dietary intakes and on anthropometric variables but the magnitude of the change achieved during 16 weeks is too modest to modify metabolic risk factors. Keywords: Women’s health, metabolic syndrome, nutrition, pulses.
511 SLEEPING PATTERN AND ITS ASSOCIATION WITH WEIGHT AND BODY FAT IN OVERWEIGHT/OBESE EARLY-POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN J.Z. Ilich 1 , H. Shin 1 , P.-Y. Liu 1 , J. Shin 1 , C.A. Darling 2 . 1 Florida State University, Nutrition, Food and Exercise Sciences, Tallahassee, United States; 2 Florida State University, Family and Child Sciences, Tallahassee, United States Objectives: Women of modern societies experience raising prevalence of overweight/obesity paralleled by decreased sleep duration, due to busier and more stressful lives. Some studies show sleep duration influences weight, as it affects food intake, metabolic rate, and energy expenditure, however, results are inconclusive. Our objective was to examine relationship of sleep duration and laying in bed with weight and body fat in 55 healthy, overweight/obese, early-postmenopausal (2-10 years), Caucasian women. Methods: Weight and height were measured without shoes and body mass index (BMI kg/m2 ) was calculated. Body composition, including total, android, and gynoid fat was measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. Sleeping duration was self-reported. Physical activity (PA) and energy intake (EI) were also assessed. Data were analyzed using multiple regression, as well as ANCOVA, with BMI and/or body fat as dependent variables, sleeping duration and laying in bed as predictors, and controlled for age, PA, and EI. Results: Multiple regression revealed significant negative relationship between BMI and fat in all regions and duration of sleep, but positive with laying in bed and not sleeping (R2 adjusted ranged from 12.8% to 25.0%, p<0.05). ANCOVA showed women who slept <7.5 hours/day had significantly higher BMI and fat than those who slept ≥7.5 hours/day. Conclusions: Results indicate that shorter sleep duration (<7.5 hours/day)
and laying in bed but not being able to sleep might be yet another contributor to higher weight and body fat in modern, postmenopausal women. More research is needed to confirm and explain mechanisms of these findings. Funded: USDA/CSREES/NRI#2004-05287
512 PREVALENCE OF COMPLAINS IN 239 MENOPAUSAL AGED WOMEN IN KASHAN - IRAN IN 2007 M. Kafaei Atrian, N. Sarafraz, A. Baghery, F. Abbaszade. Kashan University of Medical Science, Kashan, Iran, Islamic Republic of Objectives: For better health service of women at menopausal age investigate the prevalence of complaints could be helpful. The present descriptive study aimed to investigate prevalence of complaints in the menopausal aged women in Kashan - Iran in 2007. Methods: This is a descriptive study using cluster sampling. Statistical population is 239 menopauses women aged fifty five and more. The data included demographic information and medical complaint gathered by questionnaire. Results: 239 elderly women assessed, most of the study population (37.8%) were at the range of 60-69 years old, 73.8% were illiterate. Musculoskeletal disorders (143 women, 61.4%) were the most common complaints. Then hypertension (97 women, 41.6%), eye and ear disorders (60 women, 25.8%), feel of depression (54 women 23.2%), sleepiness (54 women 23.2%), Cardiovascular disorders (41 women 17.6%). Conclusions: Musculoskeletal disorders, hypertension, eye and ear disorders and feel of depression were the most common complaints in menopausal aged women. Using most common complaints rate, the health sector can calculate workload and estimate the number of health providers required for these women. Keywords: Menopause, complaints, women, disorder.
513 INFLUENCE OF MOTHER’S MENOPAUSAL AGE ON DAUGHTER’S MENOPAUSAL AGE AS AN INHERITED FACTOR M. Kafaei Atrian, A. Baghery, F. Abbaszade, N. Sarafraz. Kashan University of Medical Science, Kashan, Iran, Islamic Republic of Objectives: Investigation of influence factors in menopausal age could be helpful for better health service of women. In the present study we investigated the influence of mother’s menopausal age on daughter’s menopausal age as an inherited factor. Methods: During this descriptive- analytic study, 179 women at menopausal age were investigated. The study population included the 36-60 aged women with history of normal menstrual periods and at least one year amenorrhea. The excluded factors were the history of systemic disorders before menopause such as hypertension, kidney failure, diabet mellitus, smoking, (athlete’s women) professional sport and hysterectomy o ooforectomy. Data were collected by questioners and then was used for descriptive statistics and analyzed by O. Results: There were a significant relationship between mothers daughters and sisters menopausal age (p=0). Conclusions: Study showed that the menopausal age inherited from mother to daughters. Keywords: Menopause, menopausal age, inherit, women.
514 PATTERN OF CONTRACEPTIVE USE IN DIABETIC WOMEN E. Mazaheri 1 , F. Mostafazadeh 2 , M. Karimollahi 2 . 1 Ardabil Medical Sciences University, Ardabil, Iran, Islamic Republic of; 2 Ardabil Medical Sciences University, Nursing and Midwifery, Ardabil, Iran, Islamic Republic of Objectives: Diabetes is a disease with sever complications which are severe in reproductive women than in no reproductive one’s, thus diabetic women in reproductive age must use valid contraceptive methods for reducing unwanted pregnancy and it’s complications. So the aim of this study is determining the patterns of contraceptive use among diabetic women referring to Ardabil Medical Sciences University in Iran.
