Abstract Background A curfew for elderly people was announced in Turkey to protect the geriatric population during COVID‐19 pandemic. Although this may have beneficial effect of preventing infection, psychological distress also increase with prolongation Methods Geriatric patients were interviewed by telephone due ongoing curfew. Demographical characteristics, comorbidities, personal risk perception COVID‐19, common concerns related and experiences delayed hospital admission pandemic...
Sarcopenia is prevalent in older people, and related to survival disability. There are no data on sarcopenia evaluated according European Working Group Older People criteria for nursing home residents Turkey. We aimed evaluate the prevalence of associated factors with among Turkey.The study cohort consisted individuals aged over 65 years living Seyranbağları Nursing Home Rehabilitation Center Ankara, Besides demographic medical data, Mini-Mental State Examination, activities daily living,...

Aim The aim of the present study was to evaluate relationship between mortality and sarcopenia defined by criteria European Working Group on Sarcopenia in Older People older nursing home residents Turkey. Methods This an observational prospective study. Nursing who were aged than 65 years living Seyranbagları Home Rehabilitation Center (Ankara, Turkey) recruited for main outcome measure mortality. Diagnosis carried out according criteria. Bioelectrical impedance analysis used skeletal muscle...
Background/aim: Alzheimer disease, a common proteopathy of advanced age, is characterized by cortical atrophy, neuron degeneration, neuronal loss, and accumulation extracellular amyloid β plaques. We aimed to investigate serum vitamin B12 folic acid levels in disease other dementia patients, as potential screening test detect presymptomatic Turkish patients. Materials methods: evaluated patients well geriatric from Ankara, Dokuz Eylül, Çukurova university hospitals; 290 female male subjects...
In Parkinson's disease (PD), non-motor symptoms may occur such as autonomic dysfunction. We aimed to evaluate both parasympathetic and sympathetic cardiovascular dysfunction in older PD cases. 84 cases 58 controls, for a total of 142, participated the study. Parasympathetic tests were performed using electrocardiography. Sympathetic assessed by blood pressure measurement 24-hour ambulatory measurement. The prevalence orthostatic hypotension patients was 40.5% 24.1% control group (p> 0.05)....
In the Marmara earthquake, which occurred on August 17, 1999, 639 people had renal complications, and 477 needed hemodialysis treatment because of acute failure due to crush injury. Our objective was use Doppler ultrasonography as a noninvasive procedure provide hemodynamic information.We evaluated 9 patients with severe injury by using measure resistive indexes within 16 32 hours after earthquake 6 weeks later. All underwent hemodialysis.All measured initial were high (mean +/- SD, 0.83...
Oxidative stress may play a role in the pathogenesis of both sarcopenia and diabetes. Although risk is increased people with type 2 diabetes, relationship between oxidative antioxidant status among older diabetes population not well studied. The aim this present study was to evaluate elderly diabetic patients.
Autonomously functioning toxic adenomas are a common cause of hyperthyroidism. Although 131I seems to be good therapeutic option with little postablative hypothyroidism for these patients, only small number recent studies have objectively evaluated changes in nodule size by ultrasonography following radioiodine therapy.We prospectively followed 39 patients mean age 51.2 (35-75) years 12 months and the who remained thereafter, until euthyroidism was provided. Thyroid function tests,...
Objectives: Technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA) is an ideal radioisotopic method having a high correlation with inulin clearance for the determination of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Different formulas like creatinine (CrCl) in 24 h urine samples, Cockroft–Gault formula (CGF), and modification diet renal disease (MDRD) are being used to come up estimate. In this study, we compared 99mTc-DTPA mentioned above attempt best identify that would yield nearly GFR...
In this study, the importance of plasma viscosity (PV) as a biomarker in differential diagnosis dementia subtypes especially Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular (VaD) was investigated. Our study recruited 45 patients with AD, 35 VaD, control participants. Individuals inflammatory disease, infection, heart, liver, renal failure, high erythrocyte sedimentation rate C-reactive protein levels were excluded from study. The cases underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment. PV measurements...
