Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2025

Background/Objectives: Despite the abundant body of evidence linking high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to cardiometabolic markers, little is known about how HIIT affects liver enzymes, particularly in obese adolescents. This study aimed investigate effects on metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic disease (MASLD)-related biomarkers overweight/obese adolescent girls. Methods: Thirty-three girls (age, 17.0 ± 1.15 yr.; mass index, 33.3 4.77 kg/m2) were randomly assigned (n = 17) or control 16) groups. The group participated a nine-week program (three times weekly) without caloric restriction. Maximal aerobic speed, composition indexes, blood pressure, MASLD-related [liver enzymes (alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate (AST)), plasma lipids, uric acid, platelet count, homeostasis model assessment index for insulin-resistance (HOMA-IR)] examined at baseline after intervention.

Biomedicines, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 13(4), С. 855 - 855

Опубликована: Апрель 2, 2025

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic influenced by genetic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. While MASLD more prevalent in men, women are at increased risk after menopause, highlighting critical pathogenetic role of sex hormones. The complex interplay between estrogen deficiency, visceral fat accumulation, metabolic syndrome (MetS), inflammation accelerates progression, increases cardiovascular (CV) risk, triggers a cycle worsening adiposity, dysfunction, psychological problems, including eating disorders. Weight loss postmenopausal can significantly improve both outcomes, helping to prevent related conditions. This review examines prevalence MASLD, its comorbidities (type 2 diabetes T2D, CV, mental disorders), mechanisms, pharmacological treatment with GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP1-RAs), focus on women. Given use GLP1-RAs obesity T2D patients, increase MetS this analyzes potential stable GLP-1–estrogen conjugate as therapeutic approach subgroup. By combining synergistic effects hormones, dual agonist has been shown food intake reward suppression, resulting greater weight improved insulin sensitivity, glucose, lipid metabolism. Therefore, we hypothesize that pharmacotherapy may provide targeted benefits than either hormone alone protecting liver, β-cells, overall health. As these only supported preclinical data, highlights need for future research evaluate confirm mechanisms efficacy clinical settings, particularly

Background: Exercise and dietary interventions are essential for maintaining weight reducing fat accumulation. With the growing popularity of various strategies, evidence suggests that combining exercise with offers greater benefits than either approach alone. Consequently, this combined strategy has become a preferred method many individuals aiming to maintain health. Calorie restriction, 5/2 intermittent fasting, time-restricted feeding, ketogenic diet among most popular today. Aerobic exercise, resistance training, mixed widely practiced forms physical activity. Exploring best combinations these approaches determine which yields effective results is both meaningful valuable. Despite trend, comparative analysis effects different lacking. This study uses network meta-analysis evaluate impact on body composition compare their efficacy. Methods: We systematically reviewed literature from database inception through May 2024, searching PubMed, Web Science, Embase, Cochrane Library.
