| Abstract | Background High levels of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) induce apoptosis and pro-inflammatory effects for primary degeneration of tendon and development of tendinopathy. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the TNF-α polymorphisms and tendinopathy in athletes. Methods Two hundred and seventy athletes (135 tendinopathy cases and 135 controls) were included and genotyped (TNF-α -1031T > C; -857 C > T; -308G > A) using TaqMan validated assays. The association of the polymorphisms with tendinopathy was evaluated by a multivariate logistic regression model, using odds ratios (OR) and 95 % confidence intervals (CI). Results The variant allele − 308 A was significantly associated with patellar (OR: 1.9; 95 % CI: 1.01–3.6) or Achilles tendinopathies (OR: 2.7; 95 % CI: 1.1–6.7). No significant differences were found in allele or genotype distributions of the − 1031T > C and − 857 C > T polymorphisms between cases and controls. TNF-α TCA haplotype was associated with increased tendinopathies risk, either considering all cases (OR: 2.6, 95 % CI: 1.3–5.3), patellar (OR: 3.3, 95 % CI: 1.5–7.3), rotator cuff (OR: 3.1, 95 % CI: 1.4–7.2) or Achilles tendinopathies (OR: 3.8, 95 % CI: 1.1–12.7). Conclusions These results suggest that the TNF-α polymorphisms could influence the susceptibility to developing tendinopathy among athletes. Knowledge of the TNF-α polymorphisms associated to tendinopathy in athletes can further understanding of the inflammatory role in the early stages of the disease and contribute for sports injury surveillance programmes, in which athletes with TNF-α TCA haplotype could be early subjected to cryotherapy after training and competition to avoid tendinopathy development. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
