E-Mail: dr.kubranur_unal@outlook.com ORCID ID: 0000-0001-7940-4590 Abstract Aim: Myocardial infarction can be life threatening and the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction is highly important. The measurement of cardiac troponin is the preferred way to establish the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. Measurement uncertainty provides quantitative estimates of the level of confidence that a laboratory has in its analytical precision of test results. The aim of this study is to present the importance of reporting hs-troponin I analysis results with measurement uncertainty estimation. Material and Method: The results of 16679 patients (8060 males and 8619 females) whose hs-troponin I results were analyzed in our laboratory in 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The uncertainty of measurement was calculated according to Eurachem/CITAC Guide CG. The hs-troponin I analysis results were re-evaluated by estimation of measurement uncertainty. Results: Measurement uncertainty for hs-troponin I is estimated to be ± 19.60 %. In this study, 346 hs-troponin I analysis results (206 females and 140 males) which are above manufacturer recommended cutoff values might be below cutoff values if they were assessed based on measurement uncertainty. Also, 260 Troponin I analysis results (155 females and 105 males) which are below manufacturer recommended cutoff values cutoff values might be above cutoff values if they were assessed based on measurement uncertainty. The results of 606 out of 16679 patients (3.63%) were affected by uncertainty values. Discussion: Medical laboratories should calculate uncertainty of troponin tests and report this in conjunction with troponin results to help clinicians. A test result is not powerful enough without an assessment of its reliability. Therefore, hs-troponin I results which are close to cutoff values should be evaluated with uncertainty of measurement.","PeriodicalId":44485,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48182463","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}

T.: +90 4162161015 F.: +90 4162161014 E-Mail: drtulaykus83@hotmail.com Abstract Aim: Hemoglobin (Hg) variability, which is frequently seen in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who undergo dialysis, has been shown to be associated with increased mortality and cardiovascular disease (CVD) , but its mechanism remains unclear. Increased oxidative stress and inflammation with uremia lead to the development of anemia. In this context, we aimed to investigate the relationship between Hb variability and oxidative stress and inflammation. Material and Method: The data of 114 patients followed by dialysis service of Gaziantep University were included in this study retrospectively. Myeloperoxidase (MPO), nitrotyrosine (NTY), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), interleukin-6 (IL-6), Hs-CRP, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) levels of the patients whom we divided into 6 groups according to their Hg variability were measured. A control group (n = 30) was also formed demographically and clinically appropriate to this group. Results: The mean MPO, NTY, IL-6, Hs-CRP, and PAI-1 levels were higher in the dialysis patients than in the control group, whereas TAC levels were lower. Prooxidant, inflammation and procoagulant activity levels were lower in the Group 6 (Hg>12) and the Group 3 (stable, Hg=11-12 gr/dl) but higher in wide Hg variable group (Group 5) and Group 1 (Hg <12 gr/dl). Discussion: Oxidative stress, inflammation, and procoagulant activity, which are associated with higher CVD and mortality were found to be high in wide Hg variable and anemic groups in patients who underwent dialysis. The present study has a valuable finding in terms of elucidating the possible mechanism of increased mortality in patients with wide variable Hg course.","PeriodicalId":44485,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46148203","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}

E-Mail: Dr.zulfubirkan@yahoo.com.tr ORCID ID: 0000-0001-6404-5265 Abstract Lipomas are the most common benign mesenchymal tumors of the body. Compared to other locations, lipomas localized in the head-neck region are much more rare, with those located within the retropharyngeal and parapharyngeal spaces are among the rarest forms. Surgical treatment of lipomas is mainly due to cosmetic reasons. Moreover, since a lipoma might cause serious health problems due to its pressure causing effect by mass as well as its localization, these would also require surgical intervention. With this case presentation, we have aimed to report a 22year old case with symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea, diagnosed as retropharyngeal lipoma following MRI of the cervical region, along with data from a relevant literature.","PeriodicalId":44485,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical and Analytical Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45936133","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}
