Introduction: The objective of this study is to assess the correlation between serum levels DAO (Diamine oxidase), LPS (Lipopolysaccharide), I-FABP (Intestinal Fatty Acid Binding Protein), and Zonulin with primary sarcopenia in elderly patients, compare diagnostic performance these biomarkers SARC-F score. Methods: included 88 patients aged 65 above. Comorbidities geriatric syndromes were assessed, those secondary excluded. EWGSOP2 criteria applied for diagnosing sarcopenia, while...
Background Depression is one of the most common mental disorders among older adults and depressive symptoms are strongly associated with adverse health outcomes. We aim to examine whether sarcopenia malnutrition in adults. Methods reviewed hospital records 447 patients (≥65 years) who were admitted outpatient clinics, retrospectively. In addition demographic characteristics, all participants measured for usual gait speed (UGS), handgrip strength (HGS) skeletal muscle mass (SMMI) by using...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship of sarcopenia with systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio (MHR) and platelet parameters in geriatric patients.METHODS: We designed a cross-sectional retrospective study patients presented outpatient clinic for first time.The diagnosis was made accordance EWGSOP2 criteria.SIRI, MHR, mean volume /Platelet count (MPV/Plt), distribution width (PDW/Plt), platelet/lymphocyte (PLR) were calculated from...
Serum fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-19 and FGF-21 levels have been reported to be associated with muscle hemostasis. This study aims explore the relationship between of these markers sarcopenia.In our single-center, cross-sectional study, patients over 65 years old presenting geriatric outpatient clinic were included. Patients secondary sarcopenia excluded. The Strength-Assistance walking-Rising from a chair-Climbing stairs Falls (SARC-F) questionnaire was applied all patients. Sarcopenia...
Aging is characterized by appetite loss and cachexia, i.e., factors that contribute to malnutrition. An inflammation marker, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), a significant prognostic predictor of many geriatric syndromes. We aim determine the association between NLR malnutrition.We designed retrospective study on hospitalized patients in unit university hospital January 2019 2021. Demographic data, chronic diseases, history smoking, length stay, number drugs, laboratory further...
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in bone resorption and are regulated by tissue inhibitors of (TIMPs). We investigated the use MMP2/TIMP2 MMP9/TIMP1 ratios as biomarkers geriatric osteoporosis evaluated relationship between syndromes.This analytical cross-sectional study involved 87 patients (41 with osteoporosis) treated at outpatient clinic a university hospital. The demographic characteristics, comprehensive assessment scores, laboratory findings, mineral density...
Background/aim: We aimed to investigate the factors affecting mortality of patients aged 65 years or older who were hospitalized with diagnosis new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19). Materials and methods: This is a retrospective study old COVID-19 in İstanbul University-Cerrahpaşa, Cerrahpaşa Medical Faculty Hospital, between March 11 May 28, 2020. Demographic, clinical, treatment, laboratory data extracted from electronic medical records. used univariate multivariate logistic regression...
Objective: Polypharmacy, quite common in elderly patients, is an important issue, resulting increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to examine polypharmacy rates drug usage characteristics patients. Second aim of this was compare our results with other published studies.Methods: In a retrospective design, we reviewed hospital records 1,205 patients (≥65 years) who presented geriatric clinic, which serves as tertiary center at the University Istanbul, Cerrahpasa School Medicine,...
Dicrocoelium dentriticum (D. dentriticum) is a liver fluke induced biliary obstruction. Infection usually occurs in herbivores such as sheep, goats and deer; human infection very rarely encountered clinical practice. We report on 65-y-old female presenting with obstruction caused by D. dentriticum. Following treatment triclobendazole, her symptoms disappeared, laboratory values returned to normal range within 6 months. Parasitosis an important cause of suggest that for patients obstruction,...
Background/aim: The aim of this study was to assess the risk malnutrition in hospitalized patients with three different tests and compare these terms long hospitalization periods sarcopenia. Materials methods: Hospitalized an internal medicine clinic were enrolled cross-sectional study. Patients grouped as under 65 years (Group 1 = G1) over old 2 G2). nutritional status evaluated Nutritional Risk Screening (NRS) 2002, Universal Malnutrition Tool (MUST), Mini Assessment Short Form (MNA-SF),...
Background: The aim is to validate Turkish version Rowland Universal Dementia Assessment Scale (RUDAS). Methods: One hundred forty patients (>65 years) were included. Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition -V was used in all patients. applied for 2 days. Results compared with Mini-Mental State Examination; reliability, validity, statistical values determined. Results: Time validity verified. Mini-mental state examination correlated 45.3% control 73% dementia...
The aim of this study was to investigate the presence primary sarcopenia in older patients with normal nutrition and assess relationships between anthropometric measurements. In prospective clinical cross-sectional study, six-hundred who applied Polyclinic Geriatrics dates 2010 2011 have been evaluated. 386 were supposed potential secondary excluded from study. Age, gender, weight, height, BMI, calf waist circumference, ongoing medications, additional diseases 214 included surveyed. criteria...
