Abstract:
The purpose of the study of the study is an identification of the extension and impact of polymorphism of COL1A1 gene on cardiovascular system and musculoskeletal state of athletes. 85 people in the ages from 9 to 32 (the average age was 23.2±4.3 years) with polymorphisms rs 1800012 of COL1A1 gene were examined during this investigation. With the help of anthropometry and somatoscopy skeletal abnormalities were established. To cardiohemodynamic investigation was used echocardiography. Polymorphisms of COL1A1 gene analysis was done by polymerase chain reaction method. The study results of polymorphism of COL1A1gene rs 1800012 expansion pointed at the critical extension of heterozygous gene GT in the selected for analysis population however heterozygous gene TT is found only with frequency of 3.5%. Associated trait of genotype TT of polymorphisms of COL1A1gene rs 1800012 involves dolichostenomelia, joints' hypermobility, frequency increase of back bone deflection and as a result rising CT exhaustion level in dysplastic process that is corresponded with abnormality of CT skeleton qualitative composition. Functionary unfavorable genotype TT leads to the changes in heart morphology, major vessels and myocardium relaxation process deflection.

Overview of the Cardiovascular System
Heart
The heart is the central pump of the cardiovascular system that circulates blood throughout the body. It comprises two atria receiving the blood and two ventricles pumping blood out of the heart. Their rhythmic contractions, called heartbeats, ensure that blood flow remains continuous.

Regulation of the Cardiovascular System
The regulation of the cardiovascular system involves the autonomic nervous system (ANS), baroreceptors, and chemoreceptors, ensuring that heart rate and blood pressure are appropriately modulated in response to varying physiological demands.
The ANS comprises two main divisions: the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The sympathetic nervous system enhances...
Factors Affecting Dissolution: Polymorphism, Amorphism and Pseudopolymorphism
Some polymorphic crystals possess lower aqueous solubility than their amorphous counterparts, leading to incomplete absorption. For instance, the oral suspension of Chloramphenicol, which...
Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
