Comparison of athletic performance of Turkish ice hockey players with ACE I/D (rs1799752), ACTN3 (rs1815739), PPARA (rs4253778) and HIF1A (rs11549465) polymorphisms.

Our study is aimed at examining the Ice Hockey National Team players with regard to ACE I/D (rs1799752), ACTN3 (rs1815739), PPARA (rs4253778) and HIF1A (rs11549465) polymorphisms and physical tests. This study was participated by 21 players from ice hockey national team. While ACE I/D (rs1799752) polymorphism was obtained using conventional polymerase chain reaction method (PCR), ACTN3 (rs1815739), PPARA (rs4253778) and HIF1A (rs11549465) polymorphisms were produced by real time polymerase chain reaction method (qPCR).

Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw: Bibliometric Analysis from 2003 to 2023.

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a serious condition associated with the use of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic medications. Despite extensive research, the pathophysiology of MRONJ remains poorly understood. Bibliometric analysis provides insights into the academic impact of research, helping identify influential works and emerging trends in this field.

The Effects of MMP3 (rs679620) and VDR (rs731236) Gene Polymorphisms on Dental Caries: A Pilot Study.

Objective:  Caries formation is a process affected by various factors. Studies have shown that genetic factors also play a role in caries formation. The aim of our study is to examine the effects of matrix metalloproteinase ( (rs679620) and vitamin D receptor () (rs731236) gene polymorphisms on caries formation.

PPARA and IL6: exploring associations with athletic performance and genotype polymorphism.

This study aims to investigate the Interleukin (IL)-6 rs1800795 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARA) rs4253778 polymorphism distributions in the relatively faster and slower subgroups of national cross-country skiing athletes and to identify advantageous genotypes for endurance performance. IL-6 is an inflammatory mediator that is effective in muscle tissue hypertrophy, repair, and the immune system. On the other hand, PPARA transcription factor is a molecule associated with fatty acid, sugar metabolism and inflammation formation.

The alteration of oral microbiota before and after training in swimmers.

We aimed to analyze the effect of acute exercise on oral microbiota in regularly trained swimmers. As environmental factors may affect the oral microbiota; we also aimed to analyze the short-duration effect of swimming training on the oral bacteria relative difference in swimmers. Saliva samples of 20 swimmers both before and after the training were used for the oral microbiota metagenesis.
