Many non-invasive tests have been studied for diagnosis and determining the activation degree of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Nevertheless, an ideal test has not found yet. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is influenced by inflammation. In a few study, decreased reported in IBD. The aim this study to determine whether would be useful ulcerative colitis (UC) activity. Additionally we analyzed overall accuracy MPV activity compared with other markers. A total 61 UC patients (male/female :...
To assess the prevalence of concurrent extrahepatic autoimmune diseases in patients with hepatitis (AIH)/primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) overlap syndrome and applicability 'mosaic autoimmunity' these patients.The medical data 71 AIH/PBC were evaluated for associated diseases.In study population, 31 (43.6%) had diseases, including thyroid (13 patients, 18.3%), Sjögren (six 8.4%), celiac disease (three 4.2%), psoriasis rheumatoid arthritis vitiligo (two 2.8%), systemic lupus erythematosus...
Gastric cancer is the fourth most frequent and second cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. The early diagnosis gastric fundamental in decreasing mortality rates. It has been shown that MPV level a sign inflammation hepatocellular carcinoma pancreatic adenocarcinoma. aim this study to examine whether would be useful inflammatory marker for differentiating patients from healthy controls. Thirty-one 31 age-sexes matched subjects included into study. Patients with hypertension,...
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential use serum transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), tissue inhibitor metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1), fetuin-A, and fibroblast factor 21 (FGF21) in detection liver fibrosis patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). value noninvasive models - that is, aspartate aminotransferase platelet ratio index (APRI), based on four factors (FIB-4) score, Forn's also examined.CHB who underwent biopsy for evaluation were included study. A total 73 divided into...
Introduction: Many noninvasive tests have been studied for the diagnosis and determining liver fibrosis score (LFS).In this study, we aimed to research correlation of mean platelet volume (MPV) stage in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Patients Methods: Fifty-nine CHB were enrolled retrospectively into study.Age-sex matched 25 healthy subjects used as control group.The following data obtained from computerized patient registry database: HBV-DNA level, e-antigen seropositivity, enzymes...
Emergency cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis is associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in patients significant comorbidities high-risk surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness, possible advantages, complications percutaneous cholecystostomy (PC) followed by an early laparoscopic (LC) relation conservative treatment a delayed LC high-surgical risk patients. Between 2002 2004, were randomly classified into 2 groups: first group consisted who had PC...

Abstract Background Antibodies to soluble liver antigen (anti‐ SLA ) are specific serological markers of autoimmune hepatitis ( AIH ). The clinical significance and frequency anti‐ have never been reported among patients from Italy Turkey. To retrospectively assess the estimated prevalence, sensitivity, specificity in various diseases. Methods A total 986 who had tested for serum were included study. presence was detected using recombinant enzyme linked immunosorbent assay immuno‐blot....
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune that develops in patients with a genetic predisposition, incurring susceptibility to gluten-containing foods such as barley, wheat, and rye. The elimination of gluten from the diet main therapeutic approach usually leads clinical laboratory improvement. There are no ideal markers objectively assess dietary compliance CD patients.Sixty newly diagnosed (male/female: 43/17) 40 healthy subjects 23/17) were enrolled this study. diagnosis was established by...
<i>Background/Aim:</i> Delay of laparoscopic cholecystectomy after the diagnosis biliary colic may increase probability recurrent emergency admission while awaiting elective cholecystectomy. The aim this study was to compare possible advantages and safety urgent (ULC) with (ELC) in patients colic. <i>Patients Methods:</i> Between 2001 2003, 75 were included study. classified into following two groups: who had ULC 24 h group I (n = 28) ELC (mean interval 4.22 ± 1.42...
