<h2>Abstract</h2><h3>Objectives</h3> We described the clinical outcomes of diabetic patients who had foot infections with multidrug resistant organisms. <h3>Methods</h3> included (DFI) from 19 centers, between May 2011 and December 2015. Infection was defined according to IDSA DFI guidelines. Patients severe infection, complicated moderate infection were hospitalized. The followed-up for 6 months after discharge. <h3>Results</h3> In total, 791 included, 531(67%) male, median age 62 (19–90)....
In the present study, our objective was to evaluate and compare clinical microbiological results in patients receiving systemic plus inhaled colistin therapy due nosocomial pneumonia (NP) or ventilator associated (VAP) caused by Acinetobacter baumannii.A retrospective matched case-control study performed at ICUs Izmir Katip Celebi University Ataturk Training Research Hospital from January 2013 December 2014. Eighty who received only were 43 combined with therapy.In 97.6 % of co-administered...
Data in the literature regarding factors that predict unfavorable outcomes adult herpetic meningoencephalitis (HME) cases are scarce. We conducted a multicenter study order to provide insights into predictors of HME outcomes, with special emphasis on use and timing antiviral treatment. Samples from 501 patients molecular confirmation cerebrospinal fluid were included 35 referral centers 10 countries. Four hundred thirty-eight found be eligible for analysis. Overall, 232 (52.9%) experienced...
Abstract Background The core components (CCs) of infection prevention and control (IPC) from World Health Organization (WHO) are crucial for the safety quality health care. Our objective was to examine level implementation WHO (IPC CC) in a developing country. We also aimed evaluate care-associated infections (HAIs) antimicrobial resistance (AMR) intensive care units (ICUs) association with implemented IPC CCs. Methods Members Turkish Infectious Diseases Clinical Microbiology Specialization...
HIV-related stigma within the health care system is a major barrier preventing people living with HIV (PLWH) from accessing and continuing treatment. Psychosocial factors such as political orientation, personality characteristics, personal moral values of providers have not been adequately investigated. Furthermore, deeper understanding mechanisms effects these drivers on social distancing PLWH needed. The present study aims to fill gaps in literature by examining stigmatizing attitudes...
Objectives Overtly experienced HIV-related stigma is associated with depressive symptoms for people living HIV (PLWH). Research suggests that an important mediating mechanism in this association internalised stigma, where PLWH accept negative societal views about HIV, apply them to themselves and develop a view of themselves. Microaggressions are subtle indirect discriminatory behaviours and, like overtly may also contribute symptoms. We tested hypothesis examined the roles maladaptive ways...
Echinococcosis is still a common health problem. The aim of this study was to discuss our 8-year data in terms diagnosis, treatment and follow-up cystic Echinococcosis.A total 178 patients who had hydatid cyst were analyzed retrospectively from the hospital records. diagnosis based on clinical-serological radiological findings. Treatment response evaluated with clinical, serological findings.A medical records evaluated; male:female ratio 0.73 mean age 44.6±16.9 years. most symptom abdominal...
Chryseobacterium indologenes is nonmotile, oxidase, and indole positive Gram-negative aerobic bacilli which widely found in plants, soil, foodstuffs, water. It can colonize hospital environment due to ability survive chlorine-treated water supplies. Chryseobacteria also patients via contaminated medical devices such as respirators, intubation tubes, humidifiers, intravascular catheters, prosthetic valves. Immune suppression, comorbidities, use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, extreme age are...
IntroductIonSepsis is dysregulated and uncontrolled inflammatory response against infection.The incidence of severe sepsis septic shock has been increasing rapidly in recent years, especially Intensive Care Units (ICUs). [1]Sepsis are also the most common causes death ICU. [2]Early diagnosis rapid initiation appropriate therapy important factors affecting clinical course reducing mortality rate.Therefore, accurate recognition antibiotic treatment lifesaving critically ill...
Objective: Although several biomarkers have been evaluated for the diagnosis and prognosis of sepsis, gold standard biomarker has not yet found. We aimed to evaluate diagnostic value neutrophil-to-lymphocyte count ratio (NLCR), neopterin, pro-adrenomedullin (pro-ADM) other infection markers predict bacteremia in patients with SIRS, sepsis severe sepsis/septic shock.Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on septic a tertiary referral hospital between December 2014- July 2015. total...
In this study, we examined antibiotic susceptibility patterns and changes in methicillin resistance of staphylococci isolates from derived various clinical specimens .Between 2010 2015 our hospital, 21478 strains (6317 S. aureus 15161 coagulase-negative (CNS) strains) isolated patients followed up services, outpatient clinics were included the study.In 6317 (29.4%) Staphylococcus (S. aureus) (70.6%) strains.The rates to was significantly higher CNS than (p<0.001).A significant decrease...
Background: Many noninvasive methods, including aspartate amino transaminase (AST)/alanine (ALT) ratio (AAR), AST-to-platelet index (APRI), Bonacini cirrhosis discriminant score (CDS), fibrosis-4 (FIB4) index, and age-platelet (API), have been described to determine the stage of hepatic fibrosis. However, these methods are developed for patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) produce conflicting results in prediction liver fibrosis B (CHB). Objectives: The aim this study was evaluate...
Aim: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a non-fermentative Gram-negative bacilli which infections in hospitals have high morbidity and mortality rates. The aim of this study to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility profiles P.aeruginosa strains isolated Izmir Katip Celebi University Ataturk Training Research Hospital between January 2011 October 2015. Materials Methods: In our hospital, 2011- 2015, 1056 from various clinical specimens patients who been intensive care units were included study....
Objective: To evaluate the vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and levels in inactive hepatitis B virus (HBV) carriers.
Amaç: Çalışmamızda Yenidoğan Yoğun Bakım Ünitesinde (YDYBÜ) yatan tüm hastalar prospektif olarak incelenerek, nozokomiyal enfeksiyon (NE) gelişen olguların risk faktörleri klinik, etiyolojik, laboratuvar ve tedavi verilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gereç Yöntemler: Çalışma 01 Ocak 2005-01 2006 tarihleri arasında Eskişehir Osmangazi Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Pediatri Anabilim Dalı YDYBÜ'de yapıldı.

Coronaviruses are enveloped, positive-strand RNA viruses and usually cause upper respiratory tract infection in humans.In 2012, a novel coronavirus was found to cases of severe acute Arabian Peninsula.This virüs has been defined as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome-coronavirus (MERS-CoV).Clinical presentation MERS-CoV ranges from asymptomatic pneumonia, multi-organ failure resulting death.There's no pathogen specific antiviral therapy for MERS-CoV.Therapy strategy is based on supportive...
To evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of biomarkers new bioscore in septic patients intensive care unit (ICU).A study was conducted on non-septic ICU. Diagnostic values C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), Sequential Organ Failure Assessments (SOFA) score were analysed statistically.A total 226 enrolled study. In patients, PCT, SOFA found significantly increased (p = .007, p .001 .001, respectively). The AUC higher than PCT patients. to be more significant marker...
