Among the types of genetic diversity, single nucleotide polymorphisms are one of the most important genetic differences between two people. Single nucleotide polymorphism variation is located in the promoter region, exons، introns، untranslated regions and other Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) regions. While variation in the exon region can change susceptibility to diseases depending on whether it changes the protein structure or affects translation kinetics. Diversity in the promoter region can affect the interaction of genetic and epigenetic elements. Also، variation in the promoter region can affect the DNA methylation status. Polymorphic variation in the intron region can affect Messenger Ribonucleic acid splicing and the function of cis-regulatory elements. Polymorphic variation in the 5' Untranslated region، region causes a change in translation efficiency,، while a change in the 3' Untranslated region binds micro Ribonucleic acids to their position then affects the effects. In some cases، variations in Transfer Ribonucleic acid (tRNA) and Ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) affect the function of these regulatory cis elements. \u0000Conclusion: From a clinical point of view, a deep knowledge of this type of genetic variation can help the treatment process, manage patients and understand the prognosis based on these SNPs. Private or personalized medicine is also fundamentally based on genetic diversity. In this article, it was reviewed the types of single nucleotide genetic variation and presented examples of types of cancer, neurological and immunological diseases.","PeriodicalId":17084,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Shahid Sadoughi University of Medical Sciences","volume":"65 18","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141798445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Periodontitis includes inflammation of periodontium because of increased or decreased response of the host immunity to predisposing factors (it can be in presence of systemic diseases). The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between sleep disorders and periodontal diseases. \u0000Methods: In this analytic-cross sectional study, 60 individuals clinically healthy that referring to Department of Periodontology of Isfahan Dental School at year 2018-19 categorized into 2 groups: with or without dyssomnias (with PSQI questionnaire). In this study, Sillness and Loe plaque index, Loe and Sillness gingival index and calculus index were investigated. Similarly assessed demographic factors, personal health behaviors and relation between the severity of periodontitis and dyssomnia and were assessed.

By controlling age, gender, mass and plaque index, there was a significant relationship between dyssomnias and severity of periodontal disease in the patients with moderate periodontitis (P>0.001) and severe periodontitis (P=0.006), but in the case of mild periodontitis, the relationship was close to the significant level (p=0.087). \u0000Conclusion: It seems that dyssomnias is in relation to severity of periodontitis; therefore sleep hygiene may help controlling periodontal diseases.

Existing of NMDA receptors all over the central nervous system and the special type of anesthesia induced by ketamine, called dissociative anesthesia has led to its use as an analgesic and also paved the way for abuse. Ketamine affects the cardiovascular system by increasing indices such as heart rate, blood pressure, and cardiac output. \u0000Methods: For further evaluation of ketamine effects on heart tissue, we used 15 male and 15 female Wistar rats and divided them into 6 groups, including male and female control groups (MC and FC), male and female short-term exposure (MS and FS), and male and female long-term exposure (ML and FL) to ketamine. Each group included 5 Wistar rats. The ML and FL groups received 75mg of ketamine once a week for 4 weeks in the posterior muscle of the thigh and the MS and FS groups received 25mg of ketamine 3 times a week for 4 weeks at the same site. \u0000Results: After preparation of histopathological slides, it was observed that only in the group of female mice receiving long-term ketamine, empty spaces and intercellular distances increased, and in the group of male mice receiving long-term ketamine, in addition to the increase of intercellular spaces, tissue accumulations were also observed in the heart tissue. \u0000Conclusion: This study showed that long-term ketamine injection in both sexes can cause some qualitative changes in heart tissue.

The fetus's life and growth processes begin at conception and proceed in accordance with a biological clock's timing. With today's understanding through cryobiology, observing scientific ethics problems and interfering with the clock's operation by stopping its biological time is possible. Practically, it is accomplished by storing the cell at -196 °C, or the temperature of liquid nitrogen, where all metabolic activity ceases. Since 200 years ago, germ cell preservation has been a common practice. Since then, there have been many improvements, particularly for at-risk women. Since then, significant progress has been achieved, and several freezing techniques are being used to preserve ovarian tissue, follicles, and oocytes in women who are at risk of infertility. Different approaches have different levels of success. Among preservation techniques, vitrification performs better and is used more frequently. The cellular configuration of the mammalian oocyte is intricate. This cell's constituent parts are particularly sensitive to osmosis and variations in temperature. For instance, the alterations to the cell membrane that occur during maturation, in vitro fertilization, and the differential between the permeability of water and cryoprotectants can all be mentioned. Oocyte freezing results in a variety of impairments, including a reduction in the quality and viability of cells after thawing. Recent studies are looking for ways to enhance freezing procedures and raise the caliber of frozen oocytes.
