A machine learning technique that imitates neural system and brain can provide better than traditional methods like logistic regression for survival prediction create an algorithm by determining influential factors.To determine the factors on time of palliative care cancer patients to compare two statistical survival.One-year data is gathered from we followed in clinic our hospital (2017-2018) (n = 189). All were retrospectively evaluated. After descriptive statistics, used Pearson Spearman...
We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic value of measuring survivin levels, which is an inhibitor apoptosis in pleural effusions.Group I, malignant (MPE) (n = 51); Group II, tuberculosis (TPE) 18); III transudative (TE) 9) effusions were enrolled prospectively. used ELISA analyze 78 effusions. The for differential diagnosis correlation between survival MPE analyzed.Survivin level was 41.75 ± 76.20 MPE, 15.83 10.92 TPE 8.33 8.67 TE. When patients divided two groups as non-malignant...
Transthoracic fine needle aspiration biopsy is a well-established and safe technique for obtaining pulmonary tissue. However, there very little data about repeating procedure.We aimed to investigate whether CT-guided transthoracic (TFNA) increases diagnostic yield complication rate.Patients underwent TFNA the final diagnoses achieved were included in study. Consequently, 316 procedures performed 240 patients investigated retrospectively. A diagnosis was not reached first 64 patients, then...
Purpose: To compare the bronchodilator efficacy of 18 µg once-daily tiotropium inhalation administered via Discair ® versus HandiHaler in adults with moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Patients and methods: Fifty-eight patients COPD were enrolled this randomized, active-controlled, parallel-group, open-label, Phase IV non-inferiority trial. randomly assigned to a test group (n=29, Discair) or reference HandiHaler). The primary parameter was average maximum...
Abstract
 Pleural effusion is a frequently seen medical problem caused by pulmonary and non-pulmonary diseases. Spondylodiscitis very rare cause of pleural typically diagnosed based on clinical, laboratory, microbiological radiological findings. The low incidence different clinical presentations make its diagnosis treatment challenging. We present the case 78-year-old female who was initially admitted due to chest pain and, upon radiography, found have effusion; eventually with...
Introduction: Palliative Performance Scale (PPS), Karnofsky (KPS) and the Edmonton Symptom Assessment (ESAS) are widely used prognostic scales in palliative care unit. Institutionalized services our country quite new compared to practices many countries. We do not have concrete data on compatibility of these scales, which developed with patient from other countries, own real cases. In this study, we aimed evaluate convenience Turkish versions first days hospitalization terminal cancer...
