Pantoea agglomerans is an environmental Gram-negative bacterium that rarely responsible for the infections in humans but it often a causative factor of number occupational diseases. This study evaluated clinical and microbiological characteristics pathogenicity P. children. We retrospectively reviewed test results all children (1 month old to 18 years old) who were admitted our pediatric hospital between January 2000 June 2015 had positive specimen cultures agglomerans. Isolates identified...
Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a reflection of size, which has been shown to correlate with function and activation. The aim this study was evaluate whether MPV could be used for the diagnostic tool community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) making decision hospitalization.The computerized records children aged 1 18 years who were diagnosed CAP based on WHO criteria evaluated. A standard protocol followed, patients severe hospitalized. divided into two groups disease severity. control group consisted...
Two randomized controlled clinical trials have shown that Lactobacillus (L) reuteri DSM 17938 reduces the duration of diarrhea in children hospitalized due to acute infectious diarrhea. This was first trial evaluating efficacy L. outpatient with diarrhea.This a multicenter, randomized, single-blinded, case control watery A total 64 who presented at clinics were enrolled. The probiotic group received 1×10(8)CFU for five days addition oral rehydration solution (ORS) and second treated ORS...
To compare the immunogenicity and safety of a virosome-adjuvanted influenza vaccine (Inflexal V; Berna Biotech, Berne, Switzerland) split (Fluarix; GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals, Rixensart, Belgium) in children.The subjects, 453 children ages 6 to 71 months, were stratified into primed unprimed age groups (6 35 36 months) then randomized 1:1 receive (n = 224) or 229), half full dose was given intramuscularly according age. Unprimed received second after 4 weeks. Blood samples 326) collected...
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the temporal trends HIV epidemiology in Turkey from 2011 2016. Method: Thirty-four teams 28 centers at 17 different cities participated retrospective study. Participating were asked complete a structured form containing questions about epidemiologic, demographic and clinical characteristics patients presented with new diagnosis between Demographic data all (complete or partial) included analyses. For cascade care analysis, 15 that provided full...
Development of safe and effective vaccine options is crucial to the success fight against COVID-19 pandemic. Herein, we report interim safety immunogenicity findings phase 1&2 trials ERUCoV-VAC, an inactivated whole virion SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.Double-blind, randomised, single centre, 1 2 included seronegative healthy adults aged 18-55 years (18-64 in 2). All participants, except first 4 who received ERUCoV-VAC 3 μg or 6 unblinded monitored for 7 days purposes, were assigned receive two...
In clinical practice, when neutropenic-fever patients present with no microbiologically and clinically defined infection, the risk of underestimating an occult infection is major concern, clinicians have to make a decision on modify antibiotic therapy. Hence, reliable, specific, sensitive marker, which regulated independently from leukocyte count underlying disease, needed for early diagnosis infections in cases neutropenic fever. We evaluated diagnostic follow-up value procalcitonin (PCT)...
Evidence from the literature has shown that Saccharomyces boulardii provides a clinically significant benefit in treatment of acute infectious diarrhoea children. In this multicentre, randomised, prospective, controlled, single blind clinical trial performed children with watery diarrhoea, we aimed to evaluate impact S. CNCM I-745 hospitalised children, requiring emergency care unit (ECU) stay and outpatient settings. The primary endpoint was duration (in hours). Secondary outcome measures...

This follow-up system constituded inclusion patient by primary physician, supply family charts to family, passing...
Background/Objectives: The rapid evolution of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has led to the emergence variants with enhanced transmissibility and immune evasion, challenging existing vaccines. This study aimed evaluate immunogenicity protective efficacy inactivated bivalent vaccine formulations incorporating ancestral SARS-CoV-2 strain (ERAGEM) either Delta or Omicron (BA.5) variants. Methods: Bivalent were prepared using beta-propiolactone-inactivated antigens...
The rapid spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus has led to a global health crisis, necessitating swift responses in medical science, mainly through vaccination strategies. While short-term vaccine effectiveness is evident, immune protection's long-term effects and duration remain incompletely understood. Systematic monitoring these essential for optimizing This study aimed explore durability antigen-specific T B cell antibody levels up 8 months post-immunization with inactivated TURKOVAC...
