The aim of the present study was to determine clinical and hormonal characteristics with Sheehan's syndrome in 28 cases that we had diagnosed followed last 20 years. Twenty-eight patients syndrome, at our University Endocrinology Clinic years were reported study. Medical history, physical examination, routine laboratory examinations, pituitary hormone analysis, CT and/or MRI scan sella reviewed. All a history massive hemorrhage delivery signs syndrome. Twenty-six them lacked postpartum milk...
Objective: Impaired cellular immunity and reduced phagocytic function of polymorphonuclear leukocytes facilitate the development skin fungal bacterial infections due to uncontrolled hyperglycemia in diabetic patients. In our study, we aimed assess onychomycosis and/or tinea pedis frequency patients, effects on chronic complications, particularly foot ulcer.Methods: We included 227 patients study. Forty-three had ulcer. screened recorded demographic characteristics, HbA1c levels presence...
Background The management of adrenal incidentaloma is still a challenge with respect to determining its functionality (hormone secretion) and malignancy. In this light, we performed 18 F-FDG PET/CT scan assess the SUV max values in different masses including Cushing syndrome, pheochromocytoma, primary hyperaldosteronism non-functional adenomas. Methods Total 109 (73 F, 36 M) patients mass (incidentaloma), mean age 53.3 ± 10.2 years (range, 24–70) were screened by PET/CT. Data imaging...
BACKGROUND:Our purpose was to show the association of adrenal incidentaloma and metabolic syndrome in consideration studies detect increase carotid intima-media thickness which is regarded as precessor atherosclerosis. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Eighty-one patients who were diagnosed with mass included study. Hormonal evaluation, insulin rezistance measurement HOMA-IR 1-mg DST performed all patients. The classified follows: size <3 cm (K1) at least 3 (K2). Echocardiography measured using B-mode...
To evaluate the histologic alterations due to fine-needle aspiration (FNA), a comparative study between 20 aspirated and nonaspirated thyroidectomy specimens was performed. The most common findings in group were hemorrhage (80%) vascular proliferation and/or thrombosis (45%). In one of cases with cytologic diagnosis follicular neoplasm, sections revealed prominent endothelial proliferation. Fibrosis, cystic degeneration, infarction other group. Hemorrhage seen 45% degeneration 25% cases....
This study aimed to report the clinical and outcome data from a large cohort of patients diagnosed with acromegaly treated at our institution over 20-year period.Sixty-two (32 women 30 men) monitored endocrinology polyclinic between 1984 2013 were enrolled in this retrospective study. Clinical features patients' treatment outcomes evaluated. A level growth hormone (GH) <2.5 ng/ml was considered as criterion for remission, normal insulin-like factor (IGF) range based on gender age.The mean...
Objective: We aimed to investigate the etiology and prevalence of anemia in patients with diabetic foot ulcers relationship between both microvascular complications related conditions anemia. Methods: retrospectively collected evaluated data 225 ulcer followed at our clinic. The demographic characteristics were analyzed. Complete blood count for those anemia, serum iron, iron-binding capacity, ferritin, transferrin saturation index, vitamin B12, folic acid thin film performed. such as...
Targeting better glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and blood pressure (BP) goals may endanger older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Overtreatment of T2DM hypertension is a trending issue, although undertreatment still common. We investigated the rates predictors overtreatment glycemia BP in physicians' attitudes to deintensify or intensify treatment. Data from (≥ 65 years) enrolled large nationwide survey 2017 across Turkey were analyzed. was defined as HbA1c < 6.5% plus use ≥ oral...
Abstract To assess the demographic characteristics and hormonal status of patients who presented to our clinic with pituitary adenoma demonstrate presence, prevalence, relationship metabolic syndrome parameters in these patients. The study included 303 known or newly diagnosed 52 age- sex-matched healthy controls. were classified into 3 groups; acromegaly (ACRO) (n=54),prolactinoma (PRLoma) (n=163), non-functional (NFA) (n=86). 55.6% (n=172) 52% (n=163) patients, respectively. waist...
Abstract Background Attaining acceptable levels of LDL Cholesterol (LDL-C) significantly improves cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The LDL-C target attainment and the characteristics attaining these targets were investigated this study. Furthermore, reasons for not choosing statins physicians’ attitudes on treatment diabetic dyslipidemia also examined. Methods A nationwide, cross-sectional survey was conducted tertiary centers management. Adult...
Adrenal incidentalomas are diagnosed incidentally during radiological screenings and require endocrinological investigations for hormonal activity malignancy. In certain studies, it has been reported that non-functional can be associated with high adipocytokines levels affecting the insulin resistance just like adipose tissue metabolic syndrome. Here, we studied serum adipocytokine including leptin, resistin, visfatin, omentin 1 adiponectin in subjects adrenal incidentaloma.Seventy-seven...
Type 2 DM is a worldwide endemic disease. Dyslipidemia also frequent disorder associated with diabetic patients. Lipid profiles can vary in distinct ethnic groups and population. There have been few trials about lipoprotein (Lpa) levels type We investigated serum lipid profiles, Lpa metabolic syndrome findings In this prospective trial, 709 patients (407 F; 302 M) 157 healthy control subjects (91F; 66M) living the same geographic region were included. The mean age of was 53.4 ± 9.2 years....
This study investigates polyneuropathy in patients with unilateral diabetic foot ulcer by using electrophysiological methods and discusses whether parameters are predictive of development. Materials methods: Fifty-two ulcers (31 females, 21 males; mean age 58.5 years) were included the study. Results: In upper extremities, motor fibers affected 82% sensorial 85% subjects. lower 90% subjects injured site 79% intact site, 100% bilaterally. H-reflex was delayed 93.2% at 86.4% site. Sensorial...
Abstract Background Adrenal incidentalomas are adrenal masses that discovered by imaging tests performed for other reasons. Aims In this retrospective study, we analysed 229 Turkish patients with and who presented or without complaints. Study design Descriptive study review of the literature Methods This conducted a were referred to Cukurova University Hospital's endocrinological department between 2009 2014. We reviewed detailed patient histories, physical examination findings, symptoms...
