Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the molecular genetic causes of non-syndromic primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) cases with the gene panel basedon next generation sequencing analysis and to establish the relationship between genotype and phenotype.

Materials And Methods: Twenty three cases aged 14-40 years followed up with POI were included. Patients with a karyotype of 46, XX, primary or secondary amenorrhea before the age of 40, with elevated FSH (>40 IU/mL) and low AMH levels (<0.

This study investigated the role of TMPRSS6 C > T polymorphism (TMPRP) on the effects of chronic aerobic training on main hematological parameters in male soccer referees, which is yet unknown. Two groups composed of total of 45 healthy male soccer referees and 42 sedentary were compared for hemogram, serum hepcidin, ferritin, and iron levels. TMPRP was determined from genomic DNA samples.

Background: Nitric oxide (NO), oxidized LDL (OxLDL) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase intron 4a/b polymorphism (eNOSP) are related to atherosclerosis (AS). The present study investigated the effects of regular aerobic exercise training on the mentioned risk factors as well as blood lipids and lipoproteins (BLLPs) and the role of eNOSP, which is unclear.

Methods: The study was participated by 46 well trained male soccer referees as the athletic group (AG, age; 23.
