In order to increase the survival of these patients, it is necessary to optimize the treatment and follow-up of rebleeding and to correct the risk factors that may increase early rebleeding. In this respect, we evaluated the patients' most relevant demographic and routine laboratory features related to variceal early rebleeding. \u0000Methods \u0000Patients applied to the hospital with variceal bleeding were evaluated for relationship between rebleeding status and erythrocyte suspension needs and laboratory findings as, hemoglobin and platelet level, prothrombine time, creatinine, bilirubin, albumin level and Child-Pugh stage. \u0000Results \u0000The rebleeding was ascertained in 20 (21%) of our patients during the six week follow-up period after control of the variceal bleeding. In our study, we took into consideration the most relevant routine laboratory and radiological criteria that are closely related to pathogenesis and development of varices and rebleeding in liver cirrhosis. We found that higher Child-Pugh grade, hypo-albuminemia and presence of ascites were significant predictors for variceal rebleeding and other parameters that lower hemoglobin levels were significant predictors. \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000The high variceal rebleeding rate could exaggerate the morbidity and mortality burden on cirrhotic patients, so meticulous follow-up is mandatory for those patients to mitigate this complication and increase survival. \u0000In summary, after univariate and multivariate analysis of all our potential predictors for variceal rebleeding, we found that the only independent significant predictors were the Child Pugh Grade(p=0,016) and lower hemoglobin levels(p=0,02).","PeriodicalId":7003,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medica Alanya","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87691666","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}

A total of 245 patients newly diagnosed with NHL who were treated in our department were included. Clinicodemographic features, NHL characteristics, treatments and follow-up data were retrieved from the hospital database and charts. Patients were grouped as responders (RT) and non-responders (NRT) to treatment, as well as deceased (DP) and survivors (SP). Factors associated with response to treatment and mortality were determined by univariate and multivariable analysis. \u0000Results: Age was similar in the RT (56.2 ± 14.5) and NRT (59.5 ± 13.7) groups; however, male sex was significantly more frequent in the RT group (58.1% vs. 35.71%; p = 0.042). Multiple logistic regression revealed that female sex, low performance status, frailty, high lymphocyte level, extranodal involvement, mantle cell lymphoma, thrombocytopenia during treatment, and cardiac complications during treatment were independently associated with no response to treatment. With respect to groups based on mortality, the DP group was significantly younger compared to the SP group (50.8 ± 11.7 vs. 57.1 ± 14.6; p = 0.048), while sex distribution was similar (males comprised 54.7% of the DP and 63.6% of SP group). Multiple regression showed that extranodal involvement, thrombosis during treatment, and secondary malignancy were independently associated with mortality. \u0000Conclusion: Considering these characteristics when making treatment decisions and throughout the follow-up period may improve survival and reduce mortality in NHL.","PeriodicalId":7003,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medica Alanya","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90582269","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}

The purpose of our study is to compare doppler techniques related to the flowering artefact so that the imaging method closest to the actual size of small vessels can be selected. \u0000Method: Twin-view mode was used for measurements in 100 patients, referred to our department for obstetric ultrasonography. The diameter of the intrahepatic umbilical vein was measured from the inner to the inner side of the vessels in both B mode side and each colorized lateral side of the vessels with all of the Doppler modes. \u0000Results: Diameters of the vessels measured by advanced dynamic flow were less than the ones measured by conventional color doppler and power doppler. \u0000Conclusion: Lowering the doppler gain will decrease the blooming artefact. However, this can cause flow information to be lost. Inversely, raising the gain will result overestimating the vessel diameter or over colorizing the tissue or mass with regard to vascularity. Vascular colorize is crucial for correct placement of PD sampling gate, which could be particularly useful in the small vessels of the fetus. ADF provides more accurate measurements of the diameters of the vessels due to less blooming. Because of that, we consider that ADF is a superior Doppler technique compared with CCD and PWD, for identifying a vessel and guiding the PD sample volume.","PeriodicalId":7003,"journal":{"name":"Acta Medica Alanya","volume":"63 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85011576","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}
