Abstract Determination of the etiology bacterial meningitis and estimating cost disease are important in guiding vaccination policies. To determine incidence Turkey, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples were obtained prospectively from children (1 month–17 years age) with a clinical diagnosis acute meningitis. Multiplex PCR was used to detect DNA evidence Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib), Neisseria meningitidis. In total, 408 CSF collected, determined 243 cases; N....

Objectives: Septic arthritis (SA) is a serious bacterial infection that must be treated efficiently and timely. The large number of culture-negative cases makes local epidemiological data important. Accordingly, this study aimed to evaluate the etiology, clinical characteristics, therapeutic approach SA in children Turkiye, emphasizing role real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques diagnosis. Methods: In multi-center, prospective study, hospitalized due between February 2018 July...
Objectives: Newborns, particulary preterm infants, have limited antioxidant protective capacity. The organism's defence system against reactive oxygen species including vitamins A, E and C, trace element selenium (Se) enzymes, such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px) are essential components of the oxidative injury to cellular membranes erythrocytes. In this study, our aim was compare oxidant nitric oxide (total plasma nitrite level an indicator...
To determine the level of serum procalcitonin and cerebrospinal fluid cytokines in children with bacterial or viral meningitis to document use these parameters differential diagnosis.Before start antibiotic treatment, tumor necrosis factor alpha levels were found be higher acute compared control group. Similarly, interleukin-6 significantly meningitis. However, no significant difference was determined between groups respect interleukin-8 level.Serum can used early diagnosis they may useful adjuncts
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is common in children. The aim of this study was therefor to construct a guide for the empirical antibiotic treatment community-acquired UTI by investigating etiology and antimicrobial resistance patterns uropathogens analyzing epidemiological clinical patient characteristics.A total 158 children with positive urine culture were included study. Antibiotic susceptibility testing performed Vitek 2 Compact 28 commonly used antimicrobials.Mean age 3.36 ± 3.38 years...

In addition, lower has been correlated with higher rates infectious diseases such respiratory tract infection, tuberculosis, viral infection. Methods Seventy patients...
Background: In April 2009 a novel strain of human influenza A, identified as H1N1 virus, rapidly spread worldwide, and in early June the World Health Organization raised pandemic alert level to phase 6.

Methods: We conducted retrospective multicentre analysis case records involving with influenza-like illness, whom was diagnosed by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction assay, at 17 different...
Prostate cancer is the most common cause of deaths in men and a major health problem worldwide. Methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) plays an important role for folate metabolism also source DNA methylation synthesis (nucleotide synthesis). The objective this study was to investigate relationship between A1298C C677T polymorphisms MTHFR gene prostate Turkish population. In our study, 93 patients ages 50-89 control group 166 benign hyperplasia were evaluated. polymorphism ratios...
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are differences in choroidal thickness children with iron deficiency anemia (IDA).Fifty-two patients IDA and 54 healthy between 3 16 years age were enrolled study. After complete eye examinations conducted for each participant, the measured using optical coherence tomography. Correlations clinical laboratory parameters also evaluated.There no statistically significant two groups terms visual acuity, intraocular pressure, central...
