It is known that inflammatory responses play an important role in the pathophysiology of COVID-19.In this study, we aimed to examine kynurenine (KYN) metabolism on severity COVID-19 disease AQ5.Seventy patients varying and 30 controls were included study. In addition classical laboratory parameters, KYN, tryptophan (TRP), kynurenic acid (KYNA), 3 hydroxykynurenine (3OHKYN), quinolinic (QA), picolinic (PA) measured with mass spectrometry.TRP, KYN:TRP ratio, KYNA, 3OHKYN, PA, QA results found...
Abstract Background The core components (CCs) of infection prevention and control (IPC) from World Health Organization (WHO) are crucial for the safety quality health care. Our objective was to examine level implementation WHO (IPC CC) in a developing country. We also aimed evaluate care-associated infections (HAIs) antimicrobial resistance (AMR) intensive care units (ICUs) association with implemented IPC CCs. Methods Members Turkish Infectious Diseases Clinical Microbiology Specialization...
The characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment stages of malaria in Turkey the last ten years are not known except few case reports. We aimed to describe details diagnosis practices cases various hospitals across between 2012 2023 after declaration elimination malaria. collected patient data from 30 centers by using Qualtrics Survey Software. patients were categorized according WHO Malaria Severe Disease Symptoms guidelines. detected 299 cases. Of these patients, 23.7 % experienced...
Aim. The use of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) to determine severity and prognosis is limited. This study aimed interrogate the diagnostic prognostic role ESR compared other acute-phase reactants. Method. retrospective cross-sectional included 493 confirmed hospitalized adult COVID-19 patients. Pneumonia, radiological severity, oxygen, intensive care requirements, mortality, ESR, reactant values were recorded. Logistic regression ROC analysis...
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of switching from intravenous (IV) to oral antimicrobial therapy in patients with Enterobacterales bacteraemia, after completion 3-5 days microbiologically active IV therapy.
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a common hematological neoplasm in adults with an abnormal increase monoclonal B lymphocytes.Ibrutinib small molecule class oral cancer drug that inhibits Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) enzyme.They are widely used for treating CLL.Ibrutinib suppresses peripheral lymphocytes, causing both lymphopenia and neutropenia.It has little effect on serum immunoglobulin levels reportedly does not cause reactivation of tuberculosis or opportunistic...
Zoonotic diseases, which are a major public health problem in our city, have negative impact on and also cause economic losses due to yield of animals deaths. This study was carried out determine the seroprevalence tularemia, bartonellosis, brucellosis, Q fever, cystic echinococcosis risk groups for zoonotic infection.Ninety serum samples were taken from people covering veterinarian, butchers, farmers examined with following tests: Microagglutination test indirect fluorescent antibody (IFAT)...
Thymosin beta‐4 ( Tβ 4 ) is a major actin‐sequestering molecule that contributes to cell growth, differentiation, motility, survival, mitosis and angiogenesis. It overexpressed in certain type of carcinoma fibrosarcoma lines associated with metastatic potential. The aim this study was investigate the relationship between expression clinicopathologic features VEGF status gastrointestinal stromal tumors GISTs ). Retrospectively, 60 were re‐examined immunohistochemistry for performed. Increased...
Chronic hepatitis C (CHC) is now a more curable disease with new direct acting antivirals (DAA). Although high sustained virologic response rates, failures still occur in DAA regimens. Our objective this study was to characterize the real-life presence of clinically relevant resistance - associated substitutions (RASs) HCV NS5A gene CHC patients whose regimen has failed.The enrolled 53 who experienced failure as prospective longitudinal cohort between 2017-2019. Genotypic testing performed...
Abstract Background Brucellosis is one of the most common zoonotic diseases in world. Osteoarticular complications, especially vertebral system involvement, are commonly reported. However, reports and coreports pulmonary complications thoracal spondylodiscitis epidural abscess rare. Case presentation Spondylodiscitis was detected at T11–12 level, followed by paravertebral abscess, then empyema a 17-year-old Asian female patient without any additional disease. The had used various antibiotics...
Acinetobacter baumannii strains, are opportunistic pathogens that cause severe nosocomial infections difficult to treat due development of resistance multiple antibiotics. As the antibiotic choices be used in treatment limited, combinations a variety antibiotics used. The aims this study were identify minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values colistin and sulbactam against A.baumannii isolates determine vitro activity colistin-sulbactam combination. A total 50 strains isolated from...
