The major goals of this study are: To implement a self-efficacy based intervention to strengthen efficacy beliefs related to exercise, decrease perceived barriers to exercise, and increase exercise behavior and overall activity of older women who have sustained a hip fracture. To test the effectiveness of the Exercise Trainer component of the intervention on exercise behavior, activity, efficacy expectations, barriers to exercise, performance behaviors, overall health status, mood, pain, fear of falling, falls and fall-related injuries at 2, 6, and 12 months following fracture.
NCT00001322
This study evaluates the effects of estrogen and progesterone on mood, the stress response, and brain function in healthy women. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how low levels of estrogen and progesterone (that occur during treatment with leuprolide acetate) compare to menstrual cycle levels of estrogen and progesterone (given during individual months of hormone add-back) on a variety of physiologic measures (brain imaging, stress testing, etc.) in healthy volunteer women without PMS. This study will investigate effects of reproductive hormones by temporarily stopping the menstrual cycle with leuprolide acetate and then giving, in sequence, the menstrual cycle hormones progesterone and estrogen. Tests (such as brain imaging or stress testing, etc.) will be performed during the different hormonal conditions (low estrogen and progesterone, progesterone add-back, estrogen add-back). The results of these studies will be compared between women without PMS and women with PMS (see also protocol 90-M-0088). At study entry, participants will undergo a physical examination. Blood, urine, and pregnancy tests will be performed. Cognitive functioning and stress response will be evaluated during the study along with brain imaging and genetic studies.
