Abstract
Objective: Obesity is known to have metabolic complications including insulin resistance (IR) and metabolic disorder. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of two traditional 12-week circular resistance training methods on the levels of branched and aromatic amino acids and insulin resistance of overweight and obese men.
Design: Thirty-three overweight and obese men with mean and standard deviation of age, weight and body mass index were 17.7±0.13 years, 92±2.45 kg and 30.70±32 1.32 kg / m2, respectively. They were selected and randomly divided into three groups: circular resistance training (n = 11), traditional resistance training (n = 11) and control (n = 11). The training program consisted of two traditional resistance training protocols and 12-week wave circuits that were exactly the same volume; Which was run three times a week. Blood sampling was performed 48 hours before and after the training protocol and after 8 hours of fasting. HPLC was used to measure serum levels of amino acids.
Results: The results of analysis of variance in the groups showed that circuit training more than 2 times compared to traditional training reduces total BCAAs (35.9 vs. 15.5%) and AAAs in serum (19.5 vs. 9%) and equally the level of insulin resistance. (23 and 26.7 percent, respectively) reduced the door in overweight and obese young men.
Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the level of changes in circular resistance training was higher than traditional. Circular resistance training may be able to prevent obesity-related metabolic disorders.

Abstract
Background: Pharmacogenomics (PGx), as a growing field of personalized medicine, aims to optimize the efficacy and safety of medications by studying the association between germline genetic variations and drug responses. The present cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the allele frequency of the NUDT15 genetic variant in the Iranian population to provide insights into personalized treatment decisions in the Iranian population.
Methods: A representative sample set of 1142 unrelated healthy Iranian individuals aged 18 and older genotyped using the Infinium Global Screening Array-24 BeadChip.
Results: We identified a pharmacogenetic variant with minor allele frequency (MAF) ≥1% among the present studied population which may explain the substantial variability in drug response phenotypes among different populations
Conclusion: The results of our study reveal significant genetic variation among Iranian populations that could significantly influence clinical decision-making. This study shows the frequency pattern of the effective variant of NUDT15 in determining the phenotype in Iranian population.
