Summary Background Mean platelet volume (MPV), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) have all been investigated as novel inflammatory markers of cardiac oncological diseases, while there is only a limited number studies investigating these in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In the present study we examine NLR, PLR; other markers, such eosinophil, MPV, plateletcrit (PCT), distribution width (PDW), red cell (RDW), C-reactive protein (CRP) patients...
Abstract Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SAR2-COV-2), and was first identified in Wuhan, China December of 2019, but quickly spread to the rest world, causing a pandemic. While some studies have found no link between smoking status COVID-19, others demonstrated significant one. The present study aimed determine relationship clinical COVID-19 severity via systematic meta-analysis approach. Methods We searched Google...
Objective Evaluate the relationship between OSAS and floppy eyelid syndrome [FES], along with possible confounding factors such as gender, age, BMI.
This study aimed to determine the economic burden and affecting factors in adult community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients (≥ 18 years) by retrospectively evaluating data of 2 centers Istanbul province, Turkey. Data outpatients inpatients with CAP from January 2013 through June 2014 were evaluated. The numbers laboratory analyses, imaging, hospitalization days, specialist visits multiplied relevant unit costs items per patient obtained. Total medication calculated according duration use...
In this study, we aimed to investigate the compatibility of modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) and COPD assessment test (CAT) scores chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in terms evaluation their symptom status.The study was planned as a single-center, cross-sectional study. Statistically four separate receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves CAT scoring were generated for mMRC 1 4.Two hundred twenty eight with stable COPD, mean age 64.2±8.2 88.6% male included....
Although COPD is not one of the most common comorbidities in COVID-19 patients, it can be more fatal this group. This study aimed to investigate characteristics and prognosis patients among population with COVID-19.
To evaluate and compare the diagnostic efficiency of serum (s) pleural (p) levels adenosine deaminase (ADA)-1, ADA-2, total ADA, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) for differential diagnosis tuberculosis (TB).Clinical analytic data 93 consecutive patients with effusions from May 2012 to February 2013 were prospectively evaluated. The study population included 43 TB, 23 malignancies, 27 other exudates. median interquartile range ADA-1, IFN-γ evaluated according their underlying diseases.There no...
Organizing pneumonia following ocrelizumab use in a patient with multiple sclerosis: A case reportOcrelizumab is an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody used the treatment of primary progressive and relapsing sclerosis (MS).Although cases organizing have been reported association other agents such as rituximab, there insufficient data literature on Ocrelizumab-associated lung involvement.Herein, we present 37-year-old female Ocrelizumab use.
The aim of the present study was to evaluate and compare diagnostic accuracy pleura levels adenosine deaminase (ADA) neopterin for differential diagnosis pleural tuberculosis (TP).The included 50 patients with TB, 27 malignancies, 24 effusion non-tuberculous non-malignant origin as controls. ADA in fluid were measured by spectrofotometric ELISA method, respectively.Pleural significantly higher TB than malignancy (p< 0.001). Pleural 0.001) benign non-tuberculosis effusions mean evaluated...
Domiciliary noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) is used for treating patients with hypercapnic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We aimed to evaluate the association between adherence treatment and subsequent hospitalizations costs. Data from 54 (27 adherent; 27 non-adherent) COPD who were undergoing NIMV at home 6 months. assessed based on digitally recorded data checked hospital records clinical laboratory data, rehospitalization rates, costs during following Nocturnal...
Introduction: Influenza vaccination is the most effective method of preventing influenza infection in elderly, reducing complications, hospitalizations and mortality rates due to influenza.This study aimed assess frequency vaccination, attitude about vaccine, reasons why not getting vaccinated individuals aged >65 years.Materials Method: In total, 598 participants years were enrolled this descriptive study, data collected via a face-to-face survey.Results: 22% received vaccine.The top three...
OBJECTIVES:Vitamin D may play an important role in immunity and its deficiency has been related to increased respiratory infections.The aim of this study was detect the prevalence vitamin investigate relationship between radiological clinical effects on adult bronchiectasis (BR) patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total 130 patients with BR 73 healthy individuals (control group) were enrolled study.Radiological severity assessed using Modified Reiff Score. RESULTS:The mean age 41.9±9.1 years...
Abstract Introduction Tuberculous pleurisy (TBP) is one of the most common manifestations extra‐pulmonary tuberculosis. In patients aged ≥40 years, a closed needle pleural biopsy recommended with an adenosine deaminase (ADA) level 40‐70 U/L. We aim to investigate whether cutoff value ADA and cancer ratio in TBP years different determine effects both compounded biomarkers on diagnosing TBP. Materials Methods Between 2009 2016, levels were measured effusions from who admitted Chest disease...
Background: Several studies have shown that the risk of mortality due to COVID-19 is high in patients with COPD.However, evidence on factors predicting limited.Research Question: Are there any useful markers predict COPD?. Study Design and Methods: A total 689 were included this study from COPET study, a national multicenter observational investigating COPD phenotypes consisting who followed up spirometry-confirmed diagnosis.Patients also retrospectively examined terms their...
Defining the optimal therapeutic approach in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) bronchiectasis overlap (CBO) is challenging. The presence of emphysema suggests that COPD primary problem and it impacts decision making.We hypothesized AreaFE% performance will be reliable diagnosing such serial CT scanning may not needed. In this retrospective chart review study, we included 113 CBO (52 having emphysema, 61 emphysema). We compared these two groups according to...
Objective:The presence of a relationship between tuberculosis and hypercoagulability has been reported.In the case occurrence hypercoagulability, body responds by activating fibrinolytic system.In this study, we aimed to investigate values parameters their contribution diagnosis in patients with pleurisy (TP).Methods: Forty four (30 cases), malignant plural effusion (8 transudative pleural (6 cases) were involved study.Transudative fluids constituted control group.The concentrations fluid...
Background: To evaluate and compare the diagnostic efficiency of serum (s) pleural (p) levels adenosine deaminase (ADA)-1, ADA-2, total ADA, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) for differential diagnosis tuberculosis (TB). Methods: Clinical analytic data 93 consecutive patients with effusions from May 2012 to February 2013 were prospectively evaluated. The study population included 43 TB, 23 malignancies, 27 other exudates. median interquartile range ADA-1, IFN-γ evaluated according their underlying...
<b>Objectives:</b> In daily practice, modified Medical Research Council's dyspnea scale (mMRC) may be a very useful test to evaluate the breathlessnes, but sometimes it can misleading. Although CAT provides more comprehensive symptom assessment, practioners often do not prefer use because COPD assesment (CAT) takes time. We aimed compare and mMRC in terms of assessment status. <b>Methods:</b> This study included consecutive patients with stable who were admitted our outpatient clinic....
Abstract Background and objective Persistent chronic infection is one of the reasons underlying sustained inflammation in bronchiectasis patients, inflammatory markers may possess important clinical implications follow-up. Platelets are known to have effects on response; addition, a negative correlation has been shown between mean platelet volume (MPV) disease activity. The this paper investigate compare levels (PLT) count indices during stable acute exacerbation patients. Patients methods...
