Effects Of Acute Hypoxia On Body Substrate Utilisation During Progressively Increasing Work Rate Exercise Tests, Oğuz Özçeli̇k, Hali̇l Doğan, Haluk Keleşti̇mur
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Respiratory quotient (RQ) was used to assess the effectiveness of exercise interventions in shifting substrate utilisation. The body's RQ can be estimated non-invasively from the ratio of CO_2 production to O_2 consumption. In the present study, we examined the effects of acute hypoxia on the substrate utilisation of the body and its non-invasive estimation from ventilatory and pulmonary gas exchange variables during exercise. Eight male subjects performed two progressively increasing work rate exercise tests (15 W/min) until the limit of tolerance: in one test they were breathing room air (normoxia) and in the other 12% O_2 (hypoxia). Ventilatory and pulmonary …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
The effects of fasting on humans have not been adequately investigated. Ramadan fasting is a great opportunity for scientific research due to its peculiar nature. With this in mind, we conducted research on the effects of Ramadan on stroke, which is one of the most common causes of death in adults. Patients hospitalized solely for ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage were evaluated retrospectively. The ratio of these cases to other patients hospitalized in the neurology department was determined. The in-hospital clinical course and mortality rates of the patients with stroke were evaluated. Within the entire cohort, the most frequently encountered …

Expression Of The Tumour Suppressor Gene P53 In Odontogenic Cysts, Ayla Özveren, Can Tuskan, Mehmet Yaltirik, Beli̇r Atalay, Gülçi̇n Erseven
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
The protein p53 seems to be related to the suppression of cell proliferation. Positive tissues appear to have a higher proliferative activity than negative tissues. Mutation of the p53 tumour suppressor gene has been demonstrated in a large proportion of human head and neck tumours, although no formal evidence of functional aberration has been shown p53 may have importance during the early stage of malignancy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of the p53 tumour suppressor gene in the pathogenesis of odontogenic cysts. Expression of abnormal p53 protein is a widely recognised marker of malignancy. Expression …

Nowadays, modern biopsy techniques such as fine and wide needles are used instead of invasive biopsy techniques for examining malign and benign lesions. This study examines whether wide needle biopsy (Tru-cut) possesses advantages as an alternative method to open biopsy. This study was performed on 40 patients with suspicious intra-jaw lesions. An 18-gauge, three-piece biopsy device was used. All the samples were sent to the tumor pathology unit at the oncology institute for histopathologic and cytopathologic examination. Thirty-seven of the 40 samples were adequate for diagnosis and three inadequate were. When we considered the results of Tru-cut and fine needle …

Development Of A Diagnostic And Screening Elisa System For Measuring Tetanus Antitoxoid Levels, Cemaletti̇n Aybay, Resul Karakuş, Ahmet Gökhan Gündoğdu
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Tetanus is a vaccine-preventable disease of global importance. When acquired it has a high mortality rate. Screenings of special subpopulations such as women of childbearing age provide important clues about tetanus vaccination coverage, and tools for mass protective measures, e.g, protective measures for neonatal tetanus. In addition to its reliability and sensitivity, the main advantage of a mass-screening tool should be its cost-effectiveness. We aimed to develop a cost-effective and sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) that can be used for diagnostic research as well as mass screening purposes for antitetanus antibodies. Our in-house antitetanus ELISA was validated and tested for …
A Cell Protective Mechanism In A Murine Model Of Parkinson's Disease, Emi̇n Öztaş, Turgut Topal
A Cell Protective Mechanism In A Murine Model Of Parkinson's Disease, Emi̇n Öztaş, Turgut Topal
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Parkinson's disease is characterized by progressive degeneration of the dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra (SN). However, the mechanism underlying DA cell death remains unclear. While apoptotic cell death has been implicated in DA cell death in Parkinson's disease, autophagy - a regulated cellular process for degrading intracellular proteins and organelles under stress - in Parkinson's disease is not known. Here, we report evidence of autophagy in DA neurons of the SN in a 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) model of Parkinson's disease. Mice were treated with saline or MPTP (40 mg/kg) and sacrificed after 7 days, and brain tissue samples were …
