Brucellosis patients present various non-specific clinical symptoms, such as fever, fatigue, sweating, joint pain, arthritis, myalgia, and headache. Based on the nonspecifity of its signs symtoms, we decided to evaluate whether mean platelet volume (MPV) , neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), (PLR) will contribute diagnosis.In this retrospective study, reviewed hospital-records 60 children with a confirmed diagnosis brucellosis in Kayseri between January 2013 2016, compared hematological...
Objective To evaluate the serotype distribution and antibiotic resistance in pneumococcal infections adults to provide a perspective regarding coverage of both current future vaccines.Patients methods This passive surveillance study was conducted with Streptococcus pneumoniae strains isolated from specimens patients pneumonia (materials bronchoalveolar lavage), bacteraemia, meningitis, pleuritis peritonitis between 2015 2018. Serogrouping serotyping were performed by latex particle...
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify microorganisms causing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and also the antibiotic resistance/susceptibility. Materials Methods:We retrospectively assessed isolated from patients diagnosed with VAP in a pediatric intensive care unit between January 1, 2014, June 30, 2016. Results:We included 44 VAP.The prevalence thereof 8.6 per 1,000 ventilator days.Mechanical ventilation required for 56.5% patients.Thirty-three (75%) died.An underlying...
Objectives: To determine the serotype distribution of pneumococcus causing invasive pneumococcal disease (meningitidis, bacteremia and empyema) in children Turkey, to observe potential changes this time guide effective vaccine strategies.Methods: We surveyed S. pneumoniae with conventional bacteriological techniques real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) samples cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), blood pleural fluid. strains were isolated from 33 different hospitals which are giving health...
The aim of this study was to characterize the serotypes and antimicrobial susceptibility patterns invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates in central Turkey.A total 332 S. were identified, serotyped tested for by routine microbiological methods.The most common serogroups/serotypes 1, 19, 3, 18, 6, 14, 7 rank order. Serogroup/serotype coverage 23-valent polysaccharide vaccine, 7-, 10-, 13-valent conjugate vaccines 96%, 44%, 78.6%, 96.4%, respectively. Overall, 20 (6%) resistant penicillin,...
Aim: In this study, it was aimed to retrospectively assess the frequency and antibiotic resistance of microorganisms isolated from blood cultures patients in a pediatric intensive care unit. Material Methods:The study conducted on culture tests obtained unit sent microbiology laboratory between 2013 2016.The species susceptibilities were assessed cultures.Results: Overall, 4239 obtained.Growth detected 324 (7.6%).Of isolated, 195 (60.2%) Gram-positive bacteria, 107 (33.0%) Gram-negative...
Objective: Most patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have abnormalities of lymphocyte subsets. This study aimed to determine the distribution lymphocytes in various severity levels COVID-19 and describe relationship between CD4+ T helper prognosis. Materials Methods: Adult (>18 years old) who followed up a tertiary hospital were included prospectively. Demographic clinical characteristics obtained from records. Peripheral flow cytometry was studied different prognoses. Next, we...
A case of Acremonium falciforme peritonitis in a 50-year-old man with 10-year history end stage renal disease that was on Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis for 8 years is reported. The aim this report to remind the clinician resistant and life-threatening peritonitis, A. may be cause. This fungus identified as culture by its characteristic colonies microscopic morphological findings. In vitro fluconazole amphotericin B minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) were found 6 0.125 μg/mL...
Nekrotizan fasiit yumusak doku ve fasyalari tutan, hayati tehdit eden bir enfeksiyondur. Nadir gorulmesine ragmen hizli ilerleyen fasiyal nekroza ilerlediginden yuksek olum riskine sahip olabilir. Hastamiz acil servise sol dizinde sisme kizariklik nedeniyle olusan agri kabul edildi. Yapilan fizik muayenesinde diz fleksor yuzeyinde isi artisi ile birlikte olan iki adet kucuk ekimotik, bulloz lezyon hiperemi gozlendi. Venoz doppler tanida nekrotizan fasiiti dusundurdu. Hastanin serviste...
Abstract Background Streptococcus pneumoniae infections are challenging due to pneumococci having more than 100 serotypes. This ongoing study is aimed evaluate serotype distribution of S. causing pneumococcal in adults ( >18 years) and provide a perspective regarding coverage both current future vaccines. Methods Pneumococcal strains were collected from 22 centers between January 2019 December 2022. Serogrouping was performed using latex particle agglutination, serotyping by the...
Abstract Diagnosis of COVID19 is based on reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) samples. As NPS sampling a discomforting invasive procedure, studies were conducted to investigate the performance saliva and mouthwash (MW) samples in RT-PCR. There limited data about MW We have developed new method for concentrating gargle (GMW) be used In our study, we aimed concentration GMW detection SARS-CoV-2. A paired sample collected from patients 11...
