Article Synopsis
  • Ovarian failure (OF) affects around 1% of women under 40, often with unknown causes, which complicates personalized treatment approaches and highlights the need for genetic research.
  • A study of 150 women’s genetic data identified 18 genes with significantly higher rates of genetic variations (SNVs) in those with OF compared to controls, suggesting new biological insights into the condition.
  • Experimental validation in fruit flies showed that six of these genes were linked to reduced fertility, and the analysis also identified disruptions in key biological pathways important for ovarian function.

Introduction: Tele-rehabilitation has lately emerged as a promising medium for increasing patient adherence with significant positive results. One of the most prevalent neurological diseases affecting movement is Parkinson's disease (PD), which causes a variety of motor and non-motor symptoms among patients. Consequentially, the study was designed to compare the efficacy of group tele-rehabilitation with individual tele-rehabilitation in improving quality of life (QoL) among subjects with PD.

Unlabelled: An elite athlete's status is associated with a multifactorial phenotype depending on many environmental and genetic factors. Of course, the peculiarities of the structure and function of skeletal muscles are among the most important characteristics in the context of athletic performance.

Purpose: To study the associations of SNV rs1815739 (C577T or R577X) allelic variants and genotypes of the gene with qualification and competitive distance in Caucasian athletes of the Southern Urals.

All biological processes associated with high sports performance, including energy metabolism, are influenced by genetics. DNA sequence variations in such genes, single nucleotide variants (SNVs), could confer genetic advantages that can be exploited to achieve optimal athletic performance. Ignorance of these features can create genetic "barriers" that prevent professional athletes from pursuing a career in sports.

[Vagal nerve stimulation as a treatment of epilepsy].

Rev Neurol (Paris)

January 2005

Unité d'Epileptologie, Service de Neurologie, CHU de Rennes, Hôpital Pontchaillou, Rennes.

Introduction: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a non-pharmacological treatment for drug resistant epilepsy.

State Of Art: The good efficacy and tolerability of this device is now well established after several controlled studies, and more than 17000 people operated on in different countries. The physiology of VNS is not yet well known, and the potential mechanisms of action are reviewed.
