Menopause is a time when women experience a number of physiological and anatomical changes resulting from a decline in ovarian function. It can be concluded that cardiovascular disease increases in perimenopausal and postmenopausal women, irrespective of age-related changes. Engaging in the amount of moderate physical activity recommended by the World Health Organization helps reduce the risk of death and adverse health events. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of a 6-month aqua aerobics programme on cardiometabolic (anthropometric and biochemical) parameters in perimenopausal women.
In this study, 30 women (control group-16, study group-14) participated in the 6-month aqua aerobics training programme. The mean age of women was 47.67 ± 6.79 year and BMI 26.33 ± 3.64 kg/m. At the beginning and at the end of the study, anthropometric and blood samples analysis were performed. In the blood, lipid profile, morphotic elements were determined. Body composition, waist-hip ratio (WHR), visceral adiposity index (VAI), blood pressure (BP) were measured.
The aqua aerobics programme resulted in a significant decrease in the WHR ( < 0.05; ES: 2.143), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ( < 0.05; ES: 1.005), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PRL) ( < 0.05; ES: 0.460) and an increase in haemoglobin (HGB) concentration ( < 0.05; ES: 0.643).
The type of physical activity described in the present study is a great way for perimenopausal women to take care of their overall well-being. The reduction in selected cardiometabolic parameters is important from the point of view of the protection of women's health.
更年期是女性因卵巢功能衰退而经历一系列生理和解剖学变化的时期。可以得出结论，围绝经期和绝经后女性心血管疾病发病率增加，与年龄相关变化无关。进行世界卫生组织推荐的适度体育活动量有助于降低死亡风险和不良健康事件。本研究的目的是评估为期6个月的水中有氧运动计划对围绝经期女性心脏代谢（人体测量和生化）参数的影响。
在本研究中，30名女性（对照组16名，研究组14名）参加了为期6个月的水中有氧运动训练计划。女性的平均年龄为47.67±6.79岁，体重指数为26.33±3.64kg/m。在研究开始和结束时，进行了人体测量和血液样本分析。测定了血液中的血脂谱、形态学成分。测量了身体成分、腰臀比（WHR）、内脏脂肪指数（VAI）、血压（BP）。
水中有氧运动计划使腰臀比（P<0.05；效应量：2.143）、舒张压（DBP）（P<0.05；效应量：1.005）和血小板与淋巴细胞比值（PRL）（P<0.05；效应量：0.460）显著降低，血红蛋白（HGB）浓度升高（P<0.05；效应量：0.643）。
本研究中描述的体育活动类型是围绝经期女性照顾自身整体健康的好方法。从保护女性健康的角度来看，所选心脏代谢参数的降低很重要。
