Effect of a series of whole-body cryostimulation treatments on vaspin levels in subjects with different body mass indexes

Aim: To analyze the effect of WBC treatment on waspin levels in subjects with normal and elevated BMI. Materials and Methods: Twenty-three participants were divided into a study group (BMI >27) and a control group (BMI: 18.5-25). Blood samples were collected before 1st (I), after 9th (II) and 19th (III) treatment and 2 weeks after the serie was completed (IV). Results: Changes in vaspin levelss have been reported in study group (p=0.026). Initially, an increase in adipokine level was observed (I vs. II; p=0.013), with a subsequent decrease (II vs. III; p=0.062) after 20 sessions WBC. Conclusions: The effect of WBC on vaspin regulation and its potential use in obesity treatment will depend on the number of treatments and BMI.
