Journal of Physiotherapy and Physical Rehabilitation (JPPR) has successfully completed 4 years of successful Journey and is all set for the running year. It provides quarterly publication of articles in all the areas related to Addiction Rehabilitation, Alternative medicine, Cardiac Rehabilitation, Clinical Reflexology, Exercise, Hemipelvectomy, Multiple Sclerosis, Musculoskeletal Pain, and Myofascial Pain including all current researches. We are highly glad to mention that during the year 2019, all issues (4 issues) of Volume 4 were published online within the given time frame and print issues were also brought out and dispatched within 30 days of publishing the issue online. Journal impact factor of 2019 was approximately calculated by dividing the number of articles published in 2017 and 2018 with the number of times they are cited in the Google Scholar citation database. The current NLM ID is 101695557.

The study of the processes occurring in the body under the influence of intense physical exertion, in order to increase the efficiency of the training process and the performance of athletes, is an important issue in the physiology of sports. It is known that the strength, speed, endurance and other morphofunctional features of a person are genetically determined. Therefore, the actual direction of research is the establishment of a spectrum of polymorphic genetic variants of genes associated with a predisposition to perform physical activities of varying intensity, as well as their phenotypic manifestation in professional activity.

However, despite the active search for genetic markers in sports with the use of modern high-tech technologies, it has not yet been possible to identify universal genes associated strictly with certain physical qualities. Perhaps, there is a number of factors that affect gene activity. Therefore, the purpose of the literature review is to search and analyze possible causes that can influence the activity of genes, for example, the most studied angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene associated with the development of specialized physical qualities in athletes.
