To assess whether bacteremic ventilator-associated pneumonia (B-VAP) differs in terms of risk factors, organisms, and outcomes from nonbacteremic VAP (NB-VAP).A retrospective, single-center, observational, cohort study.Multidisciplinary teaching intensive care unit.Adult patients requiring mechanical ventilation, identified as having a 44-month prospective surveillance database.Each B-VAP patient was matched with two controls negative blood cultures based on the microbial etiology...
Background: Non‐surgical periodontal treatment decreases serum levels of inflammatory cytokines in patients with and without obesity. However, the changes metabolic parameters association these markers by have not been evaluated The aim this study is to evaluate short‐term systemic inflammatory, lipid, glucose presence obesity after treatment. Methods: included 22 dyslipemic 24 healthy individuals generalized chronic periodontitis. parameters, anthropometric measurements, triglyceride, total...
BACKGROUND: Transfusion‐associated graft‐versus‐host disease (TA‐GVHD) is a fatal complication of transfusion blood products that usually affects immunocompromised patients. Articles reporting this condition in immunocompetent recipients are from countries still have problems irradiation products. CASE REPORTS: This report presents TA‐GVHD four patients referred rural areas where not the routine procedure to our tertiary‐care center between July 2004 and 2005. A similar history chronological...
Abstract Context The aims of the study are to compare characteristics subacute thyroiditis (SAT) related different etiologies, and identify predictors recurrence SAT incident hypothyroidism. Methods This nationwide, multicenter, retrospective cohort included 53 endocrinology centers in Turkey. participants were divided into either COVID-19–related (Cov-SAT), SARS-CoV-2 vaccine–related (Vac-SAT), or control (Cont-SAT) groups. Results Of 811 patients, 258 (31.8%) Vac-SAT group, 98 (12.1%)...
Background To facilitate the decision-making process for therapy and prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in patients undergoing recent antibiotic exposure, this study investigated whether development VAP episodes caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa or other pathogens are related to different risk factors, thereby distinguishing two population serious complication. Methods A 5-year retrospective case-control observational was conducted. Cases P. were compared with those...
Targeting better glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and blood pressure (BP) goals may endanger older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Overtreatment of T2DM hypertension is a trending issue, although undertreatment still common. We investigated the rates predictors overtreatment glycemia BP in physicians' attitudes to deintensify or intensify treatment. Data from (≥ 65 years) enrolled large nationwide survey 2017 across Turkey were analyzed. was defined as HbA1c < 6.5% plus use ≥ oral...
Aspirin has a beneficial role in prevention of cardiovascular and thromboembolic events. Patients may experience events despite aspirin treatment, phenomenon called resistance. We evaluated the frequency resistance its correlation with clinical biochemical parameters among patients nephrotic syndrome (NS).A total 83 (50 males, 33 females, age range 18-79 years) NS using 100 mg/day were included study. Demographic information aetiology based on histology renal biopsy recorded for each...
Background: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) is one of the most frequent causes acute renal failure in hospitalized patients with incremental use contrast media. We aimed to investigate whether proteinuria may act as a risk factor for CIN chronic kidney disease. Methods: Seventy (37 men, 33 women) disease, proteinuria, and/or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 mL/min/1.73 m2, who were exposed media investigated prospectively. Thirty diabetic. All received prophylaxis against...
Abstract Background Attaining acceptable levels of LDL Cholesterol (LDL-C) significantly improves cardiovascular (CV) outcomes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The LDL-C target attainment and the characteristics attaining these targets were investigated this study. Furthermore, reasons for not choosing statins physicians’ attitudes on treatment diabetic dyslipidemia also examined.

Diabet. Med. 29, e133–e137 (2012) Abstract Background Insulinomas, although they are rare, the most common of pancreatic islet cell tumours. The incidence is estimated at only four per million person‐years and 5–12% reported cases malignant. Distinction between malignant benign tumours can be made by presence metastasis, as there no specific morphologic, biochemical or genetic features distinguishing them. Most patients with insulinoma have lymph node liver metastases and, rarely, bone...
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality among patients with chronic kidney (CKD). Liver function tests (LFTs) have emerged as markers CVD risk in some population-based studies. Hence, present study relation between LFTs and biochemical cardiovascular factors (CRFs) were evaluated CKD patients.A total 246 stage 3-5 pre-dialysis enrolled. Demographics, [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate (AST) gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT)] CRFs recorded retrospectively....
