Background & objectives : Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), an illness characterized by and hemorrhage, is caused a CCHF virus (CCHFV). It important public health problem in Turkey. The objective of this study was to evaluate the demographic, clinical, laboratory characteristics mortality rates patients northeast region Turkey.Methods A total 206 patients, diagnosed with CCHF, from Turkey were included evaluated between 2011 2017. Real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain...
Ultrasound (US) has an important place in imaging ulceroglandular type patients with tularemia. This study is a case series addressing the findings of US and shear-wave elastography
Background: Brucellosis is a zoonotic infectious disease. It estimated that the number of cases reported today much less than actual number. We still have difficulty in diagnosing disease and its organ involvement. In this sense, new approaches can be useful clinical practice are required, we aimed to evaluate situation our study. Methods: 171 213 patients followed center between January 2021 April 2024 were included A total 150 study as control group. Rose Bengal test (RBT), Coombs gel...
Tularemia is a zoonotic disease caused by Francisella tularensis, gram-negative, facultative, intracellular coccobacillus. It can occur in different clinical forms, and the most common form our country (Turkey) oropharyngeal form. Unfortunately, diagnosis of lymphadenitis tularemia delayed unless it suspected, especially sporadic cases. Our aim to remind clinicians have among differentials lymphadenitis.In this study, laboratory findings 16 patients between 2011 2021 were evaluated...
Abstract Background: It is necessary to use an effective vaccine end the COVID-19 pandemic.CoronaVac used in our country and we aimed examine level of antibody development after theseconddose. Methods: This a retrospective, cross-sectional research. The dataof people, who applied university hospital between January March 2021, were analyzed. Those had SARS-CoV-2 IgG IgMmeasurement previous two weeks before CoronoVac vaccine, those both found negative IgM measurement seconddose CoronaVac...
Background: The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is one of the major causes chronic liver disease. From perspective hospital workers (HWs), employees are at risk infection because occupational exposure. Apart from this risk, health professionals may still be affected by HBV, depending on epidemiological characteristics country and geographical region they live in. Objectives: This study aimed to determine HCV, HIV seroprevalence among HWs using data obtained 21 hospitals located in six regions Turkey...

Elizabethkingia meningosepticum, a gram-negative opportunistic pathogen may cause life-threatening nosocomial infections especially in newborns and immunosuppressive patients. This bacterium has peculiar antibiotic resistance profile. It is resistant to most of the antibiotics against bacteria susceptible that are used treat gram-positive bacteria, such as vancomycin trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole (SXT). For this reason appropriate treatment E.meningosepticum based on proper identification...
This study aimed to demonstrate the real-life efficacy and safety of glecaprevir /pibrentasvir in treatment chronic hepatitis C, as well identify problems caused by COVID-19 pandemic follow-up patients.
Invasive aspergillosis is a rare but severe fungal infection primarily affecting immunocompromised individuals. The Coronavirus Disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has introduced new complexities in managing due to the widespread use of corticosteroids for treating COVID-19-related respiratory distress, which can increase susceptibility infections. Here, we present challenging case progressive cerebral complicated by cavernous sinus thrombosis (CST) 67-year-old male with history COVID-19....
Introduction: Brucellosis and Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) are diseases that can present with similar clinical laboratory findings to those of COVID-19, leading misdiagnosis or confusion by visiting multiple departments. This delay diagnosis increase the risk nosocomial transmission in case CCHF. Although CCHF, even a coinfection have been reported literature, no report mentioning CCHF hospitalized pre-diagnosis COVID-19 was found. Case Report: A 35-year-old female patient...
According to a study conducted recently, anti-HCV seropositivity was found be around 1% in our country.Although the most common HCV genotype world is 1, 3, 2, 4, 6, 5, 7, and 8 infections are also seen, respectively.In country, 1 common, 1b subtype (3-6).Although combination of pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) + ribavirin used treatment before, this has been replaced by direct-acting oral antiviral drugs (DAA) recently.A sustained virological response (SVR) over 95% achieved with use DAAs...
Objective: We aimed to investigate the vaccination status and risk factors for intensive care unit (ICU) support need of laboratory-confirmed breakthrough COVID-19 infection inpatients. Materials Methods: This multi-center point-prevalence study was conducted on inpatients, divided into two groups as ‘fully’ ‘partially’ vaccinated according status. Results: Totally 516 patients were included in study. The median age 65 (55-77), 53.5% (n=276) male. Hypertension (41.9%, n=216), diabetes...
Turkish Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Viral Hepatitis Working Group updated the consensus report on management chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in private hosts special situations. Relevant literature international guidelines are reviewed, agreed recommendations presented at end each chapter. In report, treatment virus (HBV) human immunodeficiency (HIV) coinfection, HBV C (HCV) CHB severe COVID-19 patients, non-transplant immunocompromised patients.
Abstract Background: It is necessary to use an effective vaccine end the COVID-19 pandemic. CoronaVac used in our country and we aimed examine level of antibody development after second dose. Methods: This a retrospective, cross-sectional research. The data people, who applied university hospital between January March 2021, were analyzed. Those had SARS-CoV-2 IgG IgM measurement previous two weeks before CoronoVac vaccine, those both found negative dose included IgG/IgM measured by VIDAS®...
Objective: Ombitasvir/paritaprevir/ritonavir (OMV/PTV/r) + ribavirin (RBV) combination improved the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of treatment chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 4 infection. We described effectiveness safety OMV/PTV/r RBV therapy in patients with
Hemodialysis (HD) patients should be screened for latent tuberculosis (TB) infection. We aimed to determine the frequency of TB infection in HD and compare effectiveness tests used. The files 56 followed between 1 January 2021 October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Demographic data, presence Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, whether or not had previously received treatment before, status encountering a patient with active over 18 years age, without who T-SPOT.TB test Tuberculin...
