Abstract A coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) disease, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has created significant concern since December worldwide. The virus is known to be highly transmissible. Heterogenic clinical features even vary more among SARS-CoV-2 variants from asymptomatic forms symptoms. Previous studies revealed an association between COVID-19 and vitamin D deficiency resulting its low levels in patients. To our knowledge, there no scientific...
Thrombotic and microangiopathic effects have been reported in COVID-19 patients. This study examined the contribution of hereditary thrombophilia factors Prothrombin (FII) Factor V Leiden (FVL) genotypes to severity disease development thrombosis. investigated FII FVL alleles a cohort 9508 patients (2606 male 6902 female) with thrombophilia. It was observed that 930 these had infected by SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19. The demographic characteristics their medical history were recorded....
A substantial proportion of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) survivors continue to suffer from long-COVID-19 (LC) symptoms. Our study aimed determine the risk factors for LC by using a patient population Northern Cyprus. Subjects who were diagnosed with severe acute respiratory syndrome-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in our university hospital invited and asked fill an online questionnaire. Data 296 had recovered COVID-19 at least 28 days prior was used statistical analysis. For determination...
Abstract Data consisting of millions cases cannot still explain the immunopathogenesis mechanism between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and host cell for ongoing disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemics. Epidemiological studies among different populations suggested impacts ABO Rh antibodies on COVID-19 susceptibility. Thus, blood group SARS-CoV-2 paradox remain unclear. Therefore, present retrospective case–control study aimed to investigate possible...
PURPOSE: The SARS-CoV-2 infection has triggered the Covid-19 pandemic with enormous public health and economic consequences. safety efficacy of currently available vaccines have been demonstrated in few studies; however, further information on specific high-risk groups like elderly co-morbidities is needed. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to compare adverse side effects two different (RNA-based Pfizer/BioNTech inactivated CoronaVac) among co-morbidities. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge physicians on influenza and pneumococcal vaccine.A questionnaire administered working in Kyrenia University Hospital Near East School Medicine.There were 38 female (56.7%) 29 male (43.3%) participants. mean age 39.3±12.5 years. There 24 general practitioners (GP) 43 specialists participating study.

Heterogenic clinical features even vary more among SARS-CoV-2 variants from asymptomatic forms severe symptoms. Previous studies revealed an association between and vitamin D deficiency resulting its low levels in patients. To our knowledge, there no scientific investigation that evaluates direct of VDR gene markers...
Objective: Urethritis is a common sexually transmitted disease (STD) in developing countries; however, up to 40% of cases have no determined etiology.The characteristics STDs vary geographically.This study aimed define the demographic, clinical, and microbiological features men with urethritis Cyprus, where current data literature are lacking. Methods:We included 138 patients who sought care at university hospital Cyprus from 2017 2021 had symptoms suggestive or history recent sexual partner...
This study aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial resistance rates before and during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
BACKGROUND/AIMSThe aim of this study was to evaluate the knowledge health care workers (HCW) on influenza and pneumococcal vaccine. MATERIALS METHODSA questionnaire about vaccination administered HCW administrative staff. RESULTSA total 225 subjects were included into study; there 180 women (80%) 45 (20%) men.The mean age 31.9±11.4years, 73.5% respondents stated that adult effective.Pneumococcal (58.7%) less well known, although 86.2% indicated they familiar with vaccination.Only 28.4% had...
BACKGROUND/AIMSThis study aimed to evaluate the hepatitis B vaccination coverage rates among health care workers (HCWs) in a university hospital Northern Cyprus. MATERIAL and METHODSOur sample consists of 486 HCWs.The was performed retrospectively on group HCWs, whose blood serum samples were evaluated microbiology laboratory hospital.Laboratory tests conducted for identification HBsAg anti-HBs.Those who positive excluded.All data participants obtained from system, analyzed using Statistical...
<b><i>Objective:</i></b> In recent years, there has been worldwide recognition of the problems associated with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). The prevalence cardiovascular disease in HIV-infected population is increasing.

Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has caused a massive impact on the entire world. Healthcare systems, economies, and social lives have already been overwhelmed. Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), having COVID-free for around two half months in middle pandemic, is now facing second wave infection after easing its preventive measures. Early implementation precautions may dramatically reduce COVID-19 infections, but virus not eliminated. Additionally,...
The study aims to evaluate the awareness and knowledge of COVID-19 among healthcare workers.
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Wound infection is characterized as the presence of a wound environment by microorganisms in adequately large numbers, or adequate virulence to aggregate an immune response locally and/or systemically.The aim this study, conducted university hospital North Cyprus, was determine that cause pus formation infections. MATERIALS AND METHODS:One hundred and eighty-five samples were analyzed for study from period September, 2015 August, 2019.The Near East University Hospital...
BACKGROUND/AIMS:The thickness and stickiness of an individual's blood are measured by viscosity depending on frictional interactions between all major constituents such as red cells plasma proteins.Blood viscosity, when it is elevated, essential in the pathophysiology vascular diseases.The present study employed approach to determine if there a correlation comorbidities human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Two hundred seventeen people were selected...
