Dissertation note: Thesis (Ph.D.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Physical Therapy for Cardiopulmonary and Geriatrics Disorders Summary: The aim of this study was to compare between the effect of cold laser and ultrasound cavitation on lipid profile (serum total cholesterol, serum triglyceride, HDL and LDL levels) among abdominal obese women. Subjects and Method: Forty sedentary women were included in this study, they were recruited from outpatient clinic of Kasr Alaini Hospital, their age ranged from 30 to 40 years, their body mass index ranged from 30.00 to 34.9 kg/m² and their waist circumference ranged from 91 to 122 cm. They were divided randomly into two equal groups in number; group-I: Twenty women received cold laser on abdomen for 30 minutes, 2 times per week for 6 weeks, while group-II: Twenty women received ultrasound cavitation on abdomen for 30 minutes, 2 times per week for 6 weeks. Serum lipid profile (total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL levels); BMI and WC were measured at the beginning and end of the study for both groups. Results: Statistical analysis revealed that there was a significant decrease in serum total cholesterol, serum triglyceride, LDL, weight and WC levels with a percentage of change (decrease) of 7.28%, 13.26%, 6.79% 0.06% and 3.19% respectively, while there was a non-significant change in HDL in group-I. In group-II there was a significant decrease in HDL, weight and WC levels with a percentage of change (decrease) of 4.83%, 1.40% and 3.90% respectively, while there is non-significant change in serum total cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL. Conclusion: These findings suggest that both cold laser and ultrasound cavitation can be effective methods to decrease waist circumference, weight and some indices of blood lipid profile. Hence, reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications in obese women
