In this study, it was aimed to compare central corneal thickness in terms of average keratometric values and axial length in control group and eyes with PE with or without cataracts. Files of the cases who were admitted to Gaziantep University, Medical Faculty, Ophthalmology Clinic between January 2004 and February 2011, and diagnosed as PE were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were performed a detailed ophthalmologic examination including ultrasonic pachtmetry, automatic keratorefractometry and ultrasonic biometry measurements. Study group was consisted of a total 159 cases with PE (115 cases with cataract and 44 cases with no cataract) and 60 healthy subjects (control group). Mean central corneal thickness value of the cases with PE was 537.20±5.24 microns, axial length values was 23.31±1.03 mm, and mean keratometric values was 44.06±0.24 diopter, while these values for control group were 556.23±13.21 micron, 23.12±0.98 mm, and 44.28±0.65 diopter, respectively. When PE cases and controls were compared, the difference was significant (p0.05). Mean central corneal thickness value, axial length, and mean keratometric value of the cases with PE cataract were 541.93±48.29 micron, 23.07±1.32 mm, and 44.59±1.29 diopter, respectively. These values were 540.28±4.34 micron, 23.31±1.03 mm, and 44.06±0.24 diopter for the cases without PE cataract. A significant difference was not detected between the cases with and without cataract in terms of average central corneal length, axial length, and keratometric values (p>0.05). Cornea was seen to be thinner in cases with pseudoexfoliation compared to control group. Central corneal thickness measured in these subjects was not detected to be different in terms of average keratometric values and axial length in eyes with or without cataract.","PeriodicalId":290827,"journal":{"name":"Gaziantep Medical Journal","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128871180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Adult and pediatric trauma patients admitted to the emergency department of Van State Hospital between March 01 and March 31, 2010, in the course of one month period, were retrospectively analyzed. Data of the 32800 patients admitted to the emergency department during this period were evaluated. Male and female ratio of these patients was 54.8% and 45.2%, respectively, and the most intense group with 77% was the age group of 17-65. The majority of the applications with 60.5% occurred between 8 a.m. and 17 p.m. An examination was asked for 50% of the patients. It was determined that emergency examinations and therapies were applied to 9.9% of the patients, consultation rates were 4.5%, and the highest consultations were taken from orthopedic clinics (16.1%). It was established that 1.4% of the patients were hospitalized, with the highest admission to the general surgery clinic (13.8%). In hospitalized patients, the most common diagnoses were abdominal pain (9.6%), and 88.4% of the patients were discharged from the emergency department. It was observed that the majority of patients admitted to the emergency department need not have been in emergency, and should have applied to primary health care services and policlinics. The results of this study showed that non-emergency patients highly increase the workload of emergency departments, therefore, patients should be trained and awareness of patients should be increased; primary health care services should be made available; accurate, effective and enforceable policies for emergency medical services in the country must be established.","PeriodicalId":290827,"journal":{"name":"Gaziantep Medical Journal","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121893819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We compared brachial artery flow mediated dilatation (FMD) in children with LBW (n= 55, 30 male) and NBW (n= 45, 24 male) who were born at term.

Optimal adherence is the compliance to ART that achieves a sustained plasma drug concentration that suppresses viral replication. The objective of this study is to assess ART adherence and its determinants at Agaro Health Center ART Clinic, South Western Ethiopia. Facility-based cross sectional study was conducted from June 9-29, 2011. Patients were interviewed to collect adherence related information by using pretested semi-structured questionnaire. Subsequent charts of prescribed medications were reviewed using a pretested data collection format. A total of 209 respondents were included in the study, of which 127 (60.8%) were females and 82 (39.2%) were males. The average adherence rate was 98.1% among males and 99.5% among females. The overall average adherence rate among the respondents was 98.8%. One hundred sixty one (77.0%) respondents had a 100% adherence rate, 15 (7.2%) patients had a 93.3% adherence rate and the remaining 33 (15.8%) patients had adherence rate between 95 and 98% on average.

The goal of this prospective study is to investigate the effects of per ioperative nutritional support on postoperative morbidity and mortality in severely malnourished gastrointestinal tract cancer patients. Seventyone patients with the diagnosis of gastrointestinal tract cancer were included in this study. Subjective Global Assessment index was applied for patients' nutritional state. The patients were divided into two groups, severely malnourished (Group 1) and nonseverely malnourished (Group 2: well-nourished and mildly malnourished). The daily energy requirement of 36 patients in Group 1 was calculated and total parenteral nutrition was applied 30-35 kcal/kg/day by average for preoperative 7 days and postoperative 3 days to these 36 patients. Perioperative total parenteral nutrition was not given to 35 patients in Group 2. Patient morbidity and mortality was followed during the hospitalization period. Total morbidity was defined as; major complications, minor complications and complications related to total parenteral nutrition. Major complications occurred in 7 patients (19.41%) in Group 1 and 6 patients (17.11%) in Group 2 (p=0.80).

It is acknowledged that the efficacy of antioxidant defense mechanism is reduced by the changes in trace element levels. These changes also increase the negative effects of free oxygen radicals on cell integrity. It is known that hs-CRP is a marker in predicting metabolic syndrome (MS) and its parameters. In this study we aim to find some other markers and compare the relation of Cu and Zn levels with MS and MS parameters.410 patients (90 men and 320 women) were included in this study. The measurement of waist and hip circumferences are performed. Fasting plasma glucose, postprandial plasma glucose, insulin, copper, zinc, lipid profile, hsCRP levels were examined. All the analyses were done according to diagnosis criteria of NCEP-ATP III. BMI, HDL and Cu levels were significantly higher in women when compared to men (P < 0.001). As hsCRP does, blood copper levels were found to predict MS and MS parameters. However, it is different from each other in that copper levels predicted different MS parameters at different sensitivity and specificity. We also observed that there was a more significant correlation between TG level, blood pressure and Cu, compared to hsCRP. When all these results are taken into consideration, Cu can be thought as an alternatýve marker in predicting MS and MS parameters. Being influenced less than CRP by the inflammatory events, Cu is a beter predictor for MS and atherosclerosis.","PeriodicalId":290827,"journal":{"name":"Gaziantep Medical Journal","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128754959","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
