| Results | The percentage of abdominal fat was decreased in the AE group. Waist circumference was increased in the CON group, but not in the other groups. SHBG and estradiol were enhanced by both AE and BE, and correlated with changes in fat-related body composition. DHEA-S only increased in the BE group, consistently with changes in lean body mass. Testosterone was decreased in the CON group, which correlated with changes in lean body mass, skeletal muscle mass, body fat, and waist circumference. |

| Baseline Characteristics | Thirty-two elderly women volunteers with Metabolic Syndrome from South Korea were initially enrolled (average age: 74.31). |
||||||
| Participant flow | Twenty-four subjects (average age: 75.25) were finally selected for the 16-week experiment: (1) control group (CON: n = 7), (2) aquatic exercise group (AE: n = 6), (3) burdock root extract ingestion group (BE: n = 5), and (4) combination of aquatic exercise and burdock root extract ingestion group (AE+BE: n = 6). |
||||||
| Adverse events | None |
||||||
| Outcome measures | The following parameters were tested before and after the 16-week intervention: body composition and circulating hormones. |
