Abstract:
The association between Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and essential hypertension (EH) remains controversial. We searched databases (Cochrane Library, EBSCO, EMBASE, LILACS, ProQuest, PubMed, Science Direct, Springer) for studies on VDR gene polymorphisms and EH until May 30, 2024, following PRISMA guidelines. RevMan 5.4.1 provided pooled odds ratio (OR) under Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium based on allele, additive, dominant, and recessive genetic models.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper we consider a special class of polymorphisms with invariant measure, the algebraic polymorphisms of compact groups. A general polymorphism is—by definition—a many-valued map with invariant measure, and the conjugate operator of a polymorphism is a Markov operator (i.e. a positive operator on L2 of norm 1 which preserves the constants). In the algebraic case a polymorphism is a correspondence in the sense of algebraic geometry, but here we investigate it from a dynamical point of view. The most important examples are the algebraic polymorphisms of a torus, where we introdu

Graves' (GD) hyperthyroidism induces accelerated bone turnover that leads to decreased bone mineral density (BMD). The role of the VDR gene in predisposition to primary osteoporosis has been recognized. Recent studies show associations between the VDR gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to autoimmune diseases.

Abstract:
Endothelial nitric oxide synthase is a crucial gene associated with coronary artery disease, owing to the important functions of nitric oxide in vessel protection and vasodilation. Three “Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms” were found to be significantly associated with CAD: ‘the 4a/b polymorphism in intron 4’, ‘G894T (GLU298ASP) in exon 7’, and ‘the T786C replacement in the flanking region’. This study aimed to explore the relationship between the '4a/b polymorphism of the eNOS gene', the 'T786C polymorphism of the eNOS gene', and 'the combined effect of both 4a/b and T786C' with the risk of CAD

The incidence of endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer in Japan has been increasing in recent years. Results of epidemiologic studies suggest that the onset and multiplication of these cancers are associated with estrogen. Estrogens are metabolized by cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) and converted into catecholestrogens, which are carcinogens. CYP1A1 has several polymorphisms, the major one being T6235C transition in the non-coding 3′-flanking region (MspI polymorphism), and another being A4889G transition in exon 7 (Ile/Val polymorphism).
