Abstract

BACKGROUND: A combination of radio-frequency (RF) and ULTRASOUND CAVITATION (UC) has been reported to reduce indices of obesity. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of a combination of these techniques on anthropometric indices, pro-oxidant–antioxidant balance (PAB), and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP).MATERIALS AND METHODS: This randomized clinical trial was performed on 50 healthy women between January 2014 and June 2014 in Ghaem Hospital, Mashhad, Iran. Participants were randomized to one of two groups, both of which received a low-calorie diet containing 500-kcal energy deficit per day. The trial group included twenty-five subjects who were assigned to the combined treatment of RF and ULTRASOUND CAVITATION program of abdomen and flank areas. There were twenty-five control subjects who received the low calorie diet alone. Biochemical markers, including serum HS-CRP and PAB values, and anthropometric indices were measured in the intervention group and healthy controls.RESULTS: For both the intervention and control groups, waist circumference was reduced significantly by 3.76 ± 1.69 and 2.40 ± 1.04, respectively (P < 0.05). In addition, abdominal circumference was reduced by 9.5 ± 2.66 and 3.12 ± 1.88, in these groups, respectively (P < 0.001). Decrement of PAB level in the intervention group, and its increment in the control group, were not significant (P > 0.05). In addition, reductions of HS-CRP and PAB between the two studied groups during five weeks of study were not significant (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Although there were significant reductions in anthropometric indices following treatment with RF and UC, the effects on serum PAB or HS-CRP were no significantly different, compared to the control group. Further studies are needed to confirm the beneficial effect for the use of these techniques.
