...Show More Authors

Numerous physiological and biochemical changes are linked to menopause. The current study was intended to examine the transforms linked to anthropometric measurements and bone-related factors. In this study of 80 women which included; they comprised 40 premenopausal women and 40 postmenopausal women. waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), hip circumference (HC), moreover waist to hip ratio are among the anthropometric measurements (W-HR) recorded by standard procedures. The plasma samples were tested for the following biochemical parameters: bone-related parameters [calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), uric acid (UA), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR)] and serological agglutination tests [rheumatoid factor (RF) and C-reactive protein (CRP)]. The mean of BMI, WC, and W-HR was significant (p<0.05) and much higher in postmenopausal women than their values in perimenopause women, while a non-significant (p>0.05) difference was found in the mean of HC between the two groups. The findings revealed that postmenopausal women's levels of Ca were substantially (p0.05) lower than premenopausal women's levels, while postmenopausal women's levels of P were significantly (p0.05) greater than premenopausal women's levels. In comparison to premenopausal women, post-menopause women had significantly higher levels of UA, ALP, and ESR (p<0.05). The results revealed that the number and percentage of CRP positive women out of the premenopausal women are only 8 (20 %), while the number and percentage of CRP-positive women out of the postmenopausal women are only 18 (45%); the differences are significant (p<0.05). Also, the results revealed that the number and percentage of RF positive women out of the premenopausal women are only 5 (12.5 %), while the number and percentage of RF-positive women out of the postmenopausal women are only 15 (37.5%). The differences are significant (p<0.05). According to the results, postmenopausal women had significant (P<0.05) higher rates of all chronic illnesses than premenopausal women. On the other hand, the prevalence of bone-related disease was substantially (P<0.05) greater in the premenopausal women (30%) and postmenopausal women (45%) research groups as well as the overall study population of women (37.5%). In conclusion, changes related to age in the anthropometric measurements and in the bone-related parameters, accompanied by reduced physical activity may all lead to the installation of several chronic diseases among postmenopausal women.

Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol Prevents Mortality from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome through the Induction of Apoptosis in Immune Cells, Leading to Cytokine Storm Suppression
...Show More Authors

Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) causes up to 40% mortality in humans and is difficult to treat. ARDS is also one of the major triggers of mortality associated with coronavirus-induced disease (COVID-19). We used a mouse model of ARDS induced by Staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB), which triggers 100% mortality, to investigate the mechanisms through which Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) attenuates ARDS. SEB was used to trigger ARDS in C3H mice. These mice were treated with THC and analyzed for survival, ARDS, cytokine storm, and metabolome. Additionally, cells isolated from the lungs were used to perform single-cell RNA sequencing and transcriptome analysis. A database analysis of human COVID-19 patients was also performed t
