Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent type of arthritis and the main reason for progressive disability in middle-aged and older people. Studies of candidate genes may provide a novel insight and treatment strategy for knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between KOA susceptibility and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the ADAMTS-5 gene.

Background: The etiopathogenesis of ACL rupture is not clarified. The aim of this study is to identify genomic regions and genetic variants relevant to anterior cruciate ligament injury susceptibility that could be involved in non-contact anterior cruciate ligament ruptures.
Methods: A systematic review of the literature was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines with a PRISMA checklist and algorithm.

Alzheimer's disease is one of the most common causes of dementia and is a neurodegenerative disease that occurs with memory loss, loss of language, thinking and problem-solving skills. In this study, it was aimed to reveal the relationship between Alzheimer's disease and the variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism in the aggrecan () gene. Thus, it is thought that it will contribute to enlightenment about disease by contributing to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease.
