Background: Colistin (COL) has become the backbone of treatment infections due to extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Gram-negative bacteria. The most common restriction its use is acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study evaluate risk factors for new-onset AKI in patients receiving COL. consisted 198 adults admitted 9 referral hospitals between January 2010 and October 2012 treated with intravenous COL ≥ 72 h. Patients no pre-existing dysfunction were...
ABSTRACT Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) constitute a heterogeneous group of clinically and genetically diverse conditions, standing as primary cause visual impairment among individuals aged 15–45, with an estimated incidence 1:2000. Our study aimed to comprehensively evaluate the genetic variants underlying IRDs in Turkish population. This included 50 unrelated IRD patients their families. Genomic DNA was extracted from each participant, candidate were identified via next‐generation...
To investigate the retinochoroidal and optic nerve head (ONH) microstructural microvascular age-related changes in healthy subjects by examining ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness (GC-IPLT), vessel density (VD), their ratio. In this cross-sectional study, 203 (20-69 years old) were divided into five age groups: 20-29 (G1), 30-39 (G2), 40-49 (G3), 50-59 (G4), 60-69 (G5) (G5). Following a thorough ophthalmological examination, enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography...
The aim of this study was to assess health-related quality life (HRQOL) among chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients in Turkey and related factors. This multicenter carried out between January 01 April 15, 2015 57 centers. Adults were enrolled studied three groups. Group 1: Inactive HBsAg carriers, 2: CHB receiving antiviral therapy, 3: who neither therapy nor inactive carriers.

We explored the self-reported antibiotic stewardship (AS), and infection prevention control (IPC) activities in intensive care units (ICUs) of different income settings. A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online questionnaire to collect data about IPC AS measures participating ICUs. The participants were Infectious Diseases-International Research Initiative (IDI-IR) members, committed as per their institutional agreement form. analyzed responses from 57 ICUs 24 countries...

Objectives As a result of developed generalized inflammation, the main prognostic factor determining morbidity and mortality in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients is acute respiratory distress syndrome. The purpose our study was to define (1) laboratory tests that will contribute diagnosis follow-up COVID-19 patients, (2) differences between laboratory-confirmed (LC), unconfirmed (LUC), control (C) groups, (3) variation groups acute-phase reactants biomarkers can be used as an...
To determine whether macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) levels in patients with hepatitis B (HB) are different than normal individuals the HB surface antigen (HBs Ag) level viral load correlated each other two aforementioned parameters.Sera were obtained from 52 chronic active (CAHB) 33 healthy controls, their MIF MCP-1 measured. Statistical analyses performed. A value of P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.The values...
