To evaluate endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilation (FMD) and endothelium-independent nitroglycerin (NTG)-induced of the brachial artery with Doppler ultrasound in patients obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) impact six months continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment.A prospective, controlled, observational study.Single-site, clinic-based.Twenty-nine normotensive men OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI], mean +/- SD, 60.4 22.1-h), 17 without (AHI 2.5 0.6-h).Six CPAP therapy...
To determine the efficacy of prophylactic administration zinc sulphate in reducing occurrence common cold children, and to evaluate duration severity symptoms.A total 200 healthy children were randomly assigned receive oral (zinc group, n=100) or placebo (placebo n=100). Zinc (15 mg zinc) syrup administered for prophylaxis once daily during a 7-mo study period. The dose was increased two times per day (30 at onset cold, until symptoms resolved.The mean number colds group significantly less...
The study aimed to evaluate the distribution of circulating respiratory viral pathogens other than severe acute syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) during first year coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic with especially focusing on effects national-based mitigation strategies.This single-center was conducted between March 11, 2020-March 2021. All children who were tested by polymerase chain reaction nasopharyngeal swabs for SARS-CoV-2 and common included in study.A total 995 suspected...
The aim of this study was to compare the body temperature measurements infrared tympanic and forehead noncontact thermometers with axillary digital thermometer.Randomly selected 50 pediatric patients who were hospitalized in Dr Behcet Uz Children's Training Research Hospital, Pediatric Infectious Disease Unit, between March 2012 September included study. Body performed using an thermometer (Microlife MT 3001), a Ear Thermometer IR 100), (ThermoFlash LX-26).Fifty participated We 1639 readings...
Sphingomonas paucimobilis is a causative agent of infection in immunocompromised patients, and healthcare-associated infection. Although the infections associated with S.paucimobilis occurs rarely, it has been encountered increasing frequency clinical settings. In current study we reported features children infection, antimicrobial susceptibilities isolated strains among patients. This was conducted Dr. Behçet Uz Children's Hospital, Turkey, during period January 2005 December 2012. The...
Introduction: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health problem affecting millions of people annually. in children has unique features different from adults which makes the diagnosis to be more difficult. The spectrum symptoms TB could vary non-specific severe clinical presentations. In this study, we reviewed our experience at pediatric patients with active admitted tertiary hospital and aimed compare epidemiological, microbiological extra-pulmonary tuberculosis(EPTB) pulmonary...
Vancomycin-resistant enterococci colonization has been reported to increase the risk of developing infections, including bloodstream infections.
In this study, we aimed to assess left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic functions by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI) in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) investigate the effects of 6 month continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on LV functions.We studied 28 new diagnosed moderate severe OSAS (apnoea-hypopnoea index >15) 18 control group. Exclusion criteria were presence structural heart disease, pulmonary diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia, alcoholism,...
Objective: The clinical impact of central line bundle programs for line–associated bloodstream infections has been well demonstrated in intensive care units. However, the experience totally implantable venous access devices (ports) pediatric-hematology patients was limited. Methods: A retrospective study designed to compare and evaluate implementing a 2-year 5-month period, including 10 months prebundle 11 (that includes needleless split-septum devices), finally 8 period which single-use...
Acute viral respiratory infections are common causes of febrile episodes in children. There still limited data about distribution acute children with cancer.The first aim this study was to evaluate the etiology and seasonality infection pediatric patients cancer a 3-year study. Our second impact on delaying patients' chemotherapy or radiotherapy.This cross-sectional conducted from January 2014 July 2017. Nasopharyngeal aspirates were analyzed younger than 21 years infections. Patients...
Background: Cardiovascular diseases are currently the most common cause of death worldwide and associated with significant impairment quality life (QOL). In this study, we aimed to evaluate QOL patients coronary heart disease (CHD) in our country factors these patients. Materials Methods: The study population was composed 85 diagnosed stable CHD. data were collected using Ferrans Powers' Quality Life Index Cardiac Version- IV query designed by investigators. Results: Eighty-five (29 female,...
Healthcare-associated infections results in increased health care costs and mortality. There are limited studies concerning the distribution of etiologic agents resistance patterns microorganisms causing healthcare-associated urinary tract (HA-UTI) pediatric settings.The aim this study was to evaluate antibiotic susceptibility pathogens HA-UTI children.Isolates from 138 children with UTI who were hospitalized pediatric, neonatal surgery intensive units reviewed.Most common isolated organism...
Background and Objectives:In this study, we examined the role of inflammatory parameters in an apical mural thrombus with a reduced ejection fraction due to large anterior myocardial infarction (MI).Subjects Methods: A total 103 patients who had suffered from heart failure, 45 whom left ventricular (AT) after MI, were enrolled study.A detailed clinical history was taken each participant, biochemical markers, which obtained during admission, analyzed echocardiographical angiographical...
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 is reappearing with an increasing number of variants every day; this study aimed to determine the effect B.1.1.7 (Alpha), B.1.351 (Beta), P.1 (Gamma), and B.1.617.2 (Delta) on hospitalization rates. This single-center was conducted at University Health Sciences Dr. Behçet Uz Children's Hospital from March 11 August 27, 2021. Variant analyses symptomatic patients admitted hospital who were found be positive for COVID 19 PCR performed. Out 680...
Aim: Increased mean platelet volume (MPV) may reflect increased activation and accepted as an independent coronary risk factor. Adrenergic system has effects on thrombocytopoiesis. In this study, we assessed the of autonomic nervous activity MPV in patients with acute myocardial infarction (MI). Materials Methods: Forty-seven anterior MI were compared 32 having normal arteries. All underwent heart rate variability analysis by 24-h holter monitoring blood samples taken for measurements during...
