Cigarette smoke contains high concentrations of oxidants and reactive oxygen species. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of long-term cigarette smoking on glutathione (GSH) levels in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid. Nineteen current cigarette smokers and seven healthy nonsmoking volunteers were included in the study. BAL was performed by infusion of five sequential 20 ml aliquots and each aliquot was immediately aspirated. The levels of GSH were determined in BAL fluids. The epithelial lining fluid volume was calculated by the ratio of urea concentration in BAL fluid to that in serum. Lower GSH levels were observed in …

Cardiac Troponin T (TnT) is a regulatory contractile protein not normally found in blood. Its detection in the circulation has been shown to be a sensitive and specific marker for myocardial cell damage. This study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of TnT enzyme immunoassay in detecting myocardial damage in patients with stable angina pectoris undergoing visually successful percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) and to compare this newly developed test with the conventionally used cardiac enzyme tests. The study population consisted of 24 patients (3 females and 21 males) with a mean age of 55±9 years. Serial blood samples …

The use of sublingual captopril and nifedipine has been indicated in hypertensive emergencies and in patients with essential hypertension, with the assumption that by this route, there would be a faster absorption and thus a more rapid effect on blood pressure (BP) than by the oral route. A comparative study of the effects of Losartan, angiotensin II receptor antagonist, captopril and nifedipine on blood pressure was carried out in patients with hypertensive urgency. Sixty patients with hypertensive urgency were subdivided into 3 groups of 20 patients each. The first group received sublingual captopril (25 mg), the second group received sublingual …

Recent few studies revealed that increased levels of oxygen free radicals might play a role in tissue damage. There are some studies in the literature proposing that increased levels of oxygen radicals might play a role in tissue damage, as also seen in Behçet's disease (BD). The aim of the present study was to measure plasma malondialde-hyde (MDA) (as an index of lipid peroxida-tion) levels in 23 patients with BD (13 men, 10 women with a mean age of 34.5 ± .2 years) both in active and in remission periods. Twenty-one healthy volunteers (11 men, 10 women) formed as the …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
We studied a group of 59 cases with renal amyloidosis. Mean age (45 male, 14 female) was 33.05±13.04 years. All of the cases had secondary amyloidosis. The causes of secondary amyloidosis were as follows: familial mediterranean fever (FMF) 18(30.5%), pulmonary tuberculosis 12(20.33%), chronic osteomyelitis 8(13.55), bronchiectasia 9(15.25%) rheumatic diseases 4(6.4%), Castleman's disease 1(1.6%), unknown etiology 7(11.86%) Hypertension was detected in 15.3% of the cases. In patients with less than 20 ml/min creatinine clearance (Ccr) hypertension was 20%. Hypotension was detected in 6 patients, all of these cases had severe hypoalbuminemia (3.5 g/day) was found in 75% of cases. Daily proteinuria …

Objectives: To assess the endometrial contribution of serum CA125 and its influence from estrogen administration in menopausal women. Desing: A randomised, controlled, prospective study. Materials and Methods: Twenty menopausal women with intact uterus and ovaries (study group) and ten cases with total hysterectomy were selected through a random table among the referred menopause patients for hormone replacement therapy. Mean ages and menopause lengths of the study and control groups were similar. Ten cases and five controls had 15 days of transdermal 100 µm/d estradiol (TE) (group 2), and similarly the other cases with five controls had estradiol were measured at …

In this study, we evaluated metabolic changes and the effects of flutamide in 22 women with PCOS. Flutamide was administered for a 6-month period in a dose of 750 mg/day. The basal and after treatment body mass index, waist: hip ratio, blood glucose, insulin, lipids, Ferriman-Gallwey scoring (FGS), gonadotropins, testosterone, trasaminazed and glucose: insulin (G:I) ratio were measured. For comparison, ANOVA was used. The sixth month mean FGS was significantly lower than the basal values (18.5±7.4 and 12.5±4.5, P

There are both histomorphometric and nonhistomorphometric studies confirming that etidronate reduces bone resorption. In this study, we have examined urinary Calcium/Creatinine ratio (uCA/Cr) as a biochemical marker of bone turnover to show the effectiveness of etidronate and whether it could be used as a follow-up parameter of treatment. Eighty-one postmenopausal women aged 40 to 65 included into the study to investigate the effects of etidronate on uCa/Cr in a prospective, randomised, placebo controlled clinical trial. All necessary criteria matched 81 women were divided into 3 groups at random, each group consisted of 27 patients. Prior to treatment, uCa/Cr was calculated …

Total Parenteral Nutrition-Associated Cholestasisin Surgical Neonates, Alaeddi̇n Di̇lsi̇z
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors in the development of total parenteral nutrition associated cholestasis which is a significant clinical problem for pediatric surgeons. Methods: The medical records of 54 neonates who had received total parenteral nutrition for more than two weeks were reviewed retros pectively. Prematurity, duration of parenteral nutrition, enteral starvation, composition of the parenteral nutrition solution, the number of septic episodes and the presence of jejunostomy were evaluated as risk factors. The results were analyzed by dividing the patients into two groups, based on conjugated plasma bilirubin levels (greater or less …

Purpose: Acne vulgaris is a disease with no known ocular involvement and is most commonly seen in the younger population. The aim of this study was to examine the ocular surfaces of acne vulgaris patients with no ocular signs and symptoms by impression cytology. Methods: The study groups included 74 eyes of 37 acne vulgaris patients and 28 eyes of 14 healthy control subjects from the same age group. Schirmer I test, the tear break-up time test and the conjunctival impression cytology were performed in each patient. Results: We observed no difference between the tear break-up time and the Schirmer's …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Regional odontodisplasia is a developmental anomaly of dental tissues with characteristic clinical, radiographic and histologic appearances. It most commonly affects the maxillary anterior teeth of both the primary and permanent dentition, and occurs in females twice as often as in males. The pathogenesis is unknown. A case of a twelve- year old female with regional odontodisplasia is presented. Although the affected teeth displayed the radiographical and clinical features of odontodisplasia, the patient appeared with significant soft tissue swelling on the anterior region of the mandible.

A Combined Variation Of The Arteries And The Nerve In A Leg, Zeli̇ha Kurtoğlu, M. Haluk Uluutku
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
During the dissection of an amputed leg, we discovered a combined variation involving the branching of the popliteal artery and tibial nerve. The popliteal artery showed a trifurcation pattern, and one of its branches, the posterior tibial artery, was hypoplastic. In addition, a small branch arising from the tibial nerve in the upper part of the leg distally crossed the peroneal artery and contributed to the medial plantar nerve. In this article, such a case of embryonic origin is discussed, along with the clinical significance of these variations. The variant nerve and its relationship with the variant artery have not …
