Abstract
Background: There was a high prevalence of Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD) and overweight among the elderly participants. Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate the added effect of cryolypolysis on abdominal anthropometrics and lipid profile in patient with cardiovascular risk. Subjects and methods: Forty patients with cardiovascular risk had been participated in the study. Subjects was recruited from physical therapy department of Al Khanka Hospital. Patients will randomly be divided into two equal groups using computerized random sequence generator method: group (A) (Cryolypolysis plus Exercise) (Experimental group): It was composed of 20 patients who received cryolypolysis in addition to exercise therapy treatment. group (B) (Exercise only) (Control group): It was composed of 20 patients who received exercise therapy treatment. Abdominal anthropometrics (waist circumference, skin fold thickness, visceral fat intensity) and lipid measures (cholesterol, HDL and LDL) were measured before and after treatment. Results: results showed statistically significant improvement in both groups with more improvement with cryolypolysis in anthropometric measures with 0.000, 0.000 and 0.015 for waist circumference, skin fold thickness and visceral fat intensity respectively
