Cardiac metastasis is rarely detected in oncology practice. Herein we present a rare case of metastatic gastric cancer that metastasized to the right atrium and presented with heart failure. A 51-year-old male patient no known chronic disease fatigue, abdominal distension leg edema for 3 weeks. Physical examination revealed ascites, tachycardia pretibial edema. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) hypoechoic, less-mobile mass almost completely filled atrium. Moreover, 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose...
Background and Objectives: Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains a significant global health challenge. While traditional prognostic factors are well established, emerging biomarkers continue to gain attention. Materials Methods: This retrospective study evaluated the impact of systemic inflammatory markers on progression-free survival (PFS) overall (OS) in 154 EOC patients. Pre-treatment neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet/lymphocyte (PLR), index (SII) were calculated categorized...
Background/Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the prognostic and predictive significance of ATM expression in patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated pembrolizumab.

Age-matched forty healthy males who...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate tear osmolarity and film function ocular surface changes in patients with metabolic syndrome.Methods: 108 eyes 64 syndrome (group 1) 110 55 healthy individuals 2) were included cross-sectional study. All participants evaluated using the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire, Schirmer I test, break-up time (TBUT), osmolarity. Main outcome measures values.Results: Tear values OSDI scores significantly higher group 1 (314.4 ± 19.1 mOsm...
Lymph node involvement is an important prognostic factor in patients with gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the significance metastatic lymph ratio (MLNR) and compare it number metastasis pN3 cancer.We retrospectively analyzed 207 cancer who had undergone radical gastrectomy. Prognostic factors MLNR were evaluated by univariate multivariate analysis.An 0.75 found be best cut-off value prognosis (p = 0.001). significantly higher large-sized undifferentiated tumors,...
The aim of this study was to evaluate tear osmolarity, film function, and ocular surface changes in patients with psoriasis.At a single center, 30 eyes psoriasis (group 1) healthy individuals 2) were evaluated using the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire, Schirmer I test, break-up time (TBUT) scoring fluorescein staining modified Oxford scale, osmolarity measurement.Tear values, OSDI, scale scores significantly higher group 1 (309.8 ± 9.4 mOsm, 38.9 1.1, 0.7 respectively) than...
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease is an important complication and independent risk factor for acute rejection recipient morbidity-mortality. The aim of this study was to review the results CMV in renal transplant recipients.We have retrospectively analyzed 120 recipients recorded demographic features, clinical manifestations, immunosuppressive regimens.Twenty-nine (24.1%) developed after a median interval 2.8 +/- 2,6 months from transplantation. 36.3% who received basiliximab as induction...
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the predictive and prognostic value PLR, relationship between PLR tumor localization. A total 229 patients with de-novo metastatic CRC were retrospectively analyzed. cutoff for defined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis threshold 196.5 as best cut-off found. higher rate BRAF mutation significantly detected high (> 196.5) compared those low (≤196.5) ( P = .001). in tumors located on right colon .012). localization,...
ABSTRACT There is a need to treat COVID-19 patients suffering from respiratory problems, resulting in decreased oxygen levels and thus leading mitochondrial dysfunction metabolic abnormalities. Here, we investigated if high oral dose of mixture Combined Metabolic Activators (CMA) can restore function aid the recovery patients. We conducted placebo-controlled, open-label phase 2 study double-blinded 3 clinical trials investigate time symptom-free on ambulatory using CMA consisting NAD+...
To evaluate the effect of fibrin glue on staple-line leak after sleeve gastrectomy.Fourteen adult wistar rats 300 gr were randomized into two groups: Control group (n=7) and study (n=7). All underwent gastrectomy using lineer stapler. In group, was used to reinforce staple-line. The sacrificed 7 days surgery. stomach resected, submerged in saline exposed excess pressure obtain a burst value. gastric staple line evaluated histopathologically according Ehrlich Hunt scale. results groups...
Background/aim: A SARS-Cov2 infection which was first arised from Wuhan in December 2019 and named as COVID-19. Still there lacks either a specific treatment or vaccine to treat Convalescent plasma (CP) previously used successfully SARS-CoV-1 MERS infections. Health authority Turkey has published guideline integrate this promising option the process of patients who are prone high risk developing severe COVID 19. Materials Methods: Forty consecutive had received CP at our center were included...
