Análisis bibliométrico de la investigación en genética y la ruptura de ligamento cruzado anterior en deporte: una revisión

MHSalud; 21 (1), 2024
Resumen: Introducción: El componente genético se ha establecido como un factor de riesgo considerable para la ruptura del ligamento cruzado anterior (RLCA). La investigación actual se ha centrado en conocer los genes candidatos que pueden influir y predisponer a un sujeto a padecer esta lesión. Ob...

Differences in Muscle Strength Performance According to the Genotypes of the rs4646994 Polymorphism of the ACE Gene in a Sedentary Population

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: The angiotensin converting enzyme gene (ACE) has been associated with endurance and strength performance through its I/D polymorphism. Nevertheless, contradictory results exist between different populations. In this context, the purpose of this research was to determine the influence of the I/D ...

Sprint and Anaerobic Power with the Soccer-Specific ACTN3 Gene: A Distintive Example

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: The aim of this study is twofold: (1) to identify differences in certain anaerobic parameters (10m sprint, 30m sprint, anaerobic power, and Illinois agility tests) between professional and amateur soccer players, and (2) to determine whether there is a difference in the ACTN3 gene polymorphism b...

Identification of a rare copy number polymorphic gain at 3q12.2 with candidate genes for familial endometriosis

Abstract Endometriosis is a complex disease that affects 10-15% of women of reproductive age. Familial studies show that relatives of affected patients have a higher risk of developing the disease, implicating a genetic role for this disorder. Little is known about the impact of germline genomic copy num...

Early and late-onset preeclampsia: effects of DDAH2 polymorphisms on ADMA levels and association with DDAH2 haplotypes

Abstract Objective: To examine whether the DDAH2 promoter polymorphisms -1415G/A (rs2272592), -1151A/C (rs805304) and -449G/C (rs805305), and their haplotypes, are associated with PE compared with normotensive pregnant women, and whether they affect ADMA levels in these groups. Methods: A total of 208 ...

Avaliação da esteatose e da fibrose hepática em pacientes com psoríase: o papel do metotrexate, da síndrome metabólica, de fatores genéticos e a associação com o risco cardiovascular
Assessment of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in patients with psoriasis: the role of methotrexate, metabolic syndrome, genetic factors and the association with cardiovascular risk

Introdução: Uma alta prevalência de doença hepática esteatótica metabólica (MASLD) tem sido descrita na psoríase. A influência da presença de fatores metabólicos, dos polimorfismos dos genes PNPLA3 e TM6SF2 e da dose acumulada de metotrexate (MTX) na progressão da doença esteatótica necessi...

Caracterización metabólica y frecuencia del polimorfismo I/D (rs4646994) del gen ACE1 en adultos con diagnóstico de diabetes de nueva aparición posterior a COVID-19

Evidencia reciente ha demostrado que el virus SARS-CoV-2 causante de la enfermedad COVID-19 puede producir daño directo al páncreas sugiriendo un posible efecto diabetógeno. El objetivo de este estudio de caso-control fue evaluar el perfil metabólico y determinar la frecuencia del alelo de riesgo del...

Human visceral leishmaniasis and polymorphisms in interleukin-coding genes: a systematic review

Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a neglected disease that is typical of tropical and subtropical parts of the world and is caused by the trypanosomatid Leishmania donovani complex. This disease is a multifactorial condition that involves parasitic, environmental, and immunogenetic characteristics. Genetic ...

Associação entre polimorfismos genéticos, variáveis clínicas e sociodemográficas com diagnóstico de provável polineuropatia simétrica distal em crianças e adolescentes com diabetes tipo 1
Association between genetic polymorphisms, clinical and sociodemographic variables with diagnosis of probable distal symmetric polyneuropathy in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes

INTRODUÇÃO: A polineuropatia simétrica distal (PSD) é o tipo mais comum de neuropatia diabética (ND) e afeta tanto indivíduos com diabetes tipo 1 quanto tipo 2, mas a progressão e as manifestações são mais rápidas e graves em diabéticos tipo 1. Vários estudos demonstram que o controle glicê...

Association between sleep quality and polymorphisms of the genes COMT, HTR2A and FKBP5 in individuals with and without dentofacial deformity

Braz. j. oral sci; 23 (), 2024
Sleep is a fundamental biological function, and any disturbances can lead to alterations in an individual’s physical, occupational, cognitive, and social functioning. Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the quality of sleep and its association with factors such as age, sex, facial profile, and genetic po...
