OGG1 DNA Repair Gene Polymorphism As a Biomarker of Oxidative and Genotoxic DNA Damage
Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms in 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) gene modulates DNA repair capacity and functions as one of the first lines of protective mechanisms against 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) mutagenicity. OGG1-Cys326 gene polymorphism may decrease DNA repair function, causing oxidative stress due to higher oxidative DNA damage. The main purpose of this stu...
متن کاملA U-Shaped Relationship between Body Mass Index and Dysmenorrhea: A Longitudinal Study
BACKGROUND Both obesity and dysmenorrhea are prevalent among women. Few population-based longitudinal studies investigate the association between body mass index (BMI) and dysmenorrhea yielding mixed results, especially for obesity. This study aims to investigate the long-term association between BMI and dysmenorrhea. METHODS 9,688 women from a prospective population-based cohort study were f...
متن کاملregression dilution bias in blood pressure and body mass index in a longitudinal population-based cohort study
background: use of single measurement of risk factors can distort their estimated effects, due to random error in measurements. the aim of this study was to examine the extent of underestimation in the estimated effect of common variables in physical exam i.e. systolic and diastolic blood pressure (sbp, dbp) and body mass index (bmi) on cardiovascular diseases in tehran lipid and glucose study ...
متن کاملDNA methylation and body-mass index: a genome-wide analysis
BACKGROUND Obesity is a major health problem that is determined by interactions between lifestyle and environmental and genetic factors. Although associations between several genetic variants and body-mass index (BMI) have been identified, little is known about epigenetic changes related to BMI. We undertook a genome-wide analysis of methylation at CpG sites in relation to BMI. METHODS 479 in...
متن کاملThe influence of socioeconomic status, ethnicity and lifestyle on body mass index in a longitudinal study.
BACKGROUND Few studies have attempted to disentangle the complex relationship between socioeconomic status (SES) and ethnicity and its influence on body mass index (BMI) and on change in BMI over a decade. The present study highlights the influence of ethnicity (country of birth) and SES on BMI, adjusting for certain lifestyle factors. METHODS The longitudinal self-reported data, based on a s...
