| Abstract |
The elevated body weight in post-menopausal state attributes to the reduced estrogen levels which is alleviated by resveratrol (RES) but its role in control rats is not well understood. The main objective of the study was to explore the effects of RES on the body weight of ovariectomized (OVX) female rats with controls and to relate their biochemical parameters. Female Wistar rats weighing 200-300 g underwent bilateral ovariectomy (OVX) and were fed soya free diet (n = 8 rats per group). In all groups: (Control, Control + Resveratrol, OVX and OVX + Resveratrol) resveratrol was administered orally at a dose of 5 mg/kg/day for 1 month. Glucose and other biochemical parameters were examined. Significant reduction in the gain of body weight was observed in the control rats treated with resveratrol. Ovariectomy caused an escalation in gain of body weight due to loss of estrogen which was brought down with resveratrol. There was a slight dip in the blood glucose levels after resveratrol treatment. Resveratrol significantly reduced the gain of body weight in the control rats and in OVX rats showing its antiobesogenic effects. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 July 2017.
All research outputs
#20,433,667
of 22,986,950 outputs
Outputs from Nutrition & Metabolism
#853
of 950 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#269,148
of 308,956 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nutrition & Metabolism
#14
of 15 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,986,950 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 950 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 25.7. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 308,956 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 15 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
