Patients' Rights In Turkey, Şükrü Hatun
Patients' Rights In Turkey, Şükrü Hatun
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Patient's rights primarily mean the practice of human rights and values in the field of health care services and include the rights which are considered as third generation rights. Recently, in many countries, especially in European countries, concept of health care services which give importance to patients' rights has been developed. Patients' rights in Turkey is one of the least known issues and remembered only by physicians' malparactises causing death or disabilities some of which are speculative. Efforts are needed to strengthen the patients' rights should be accelerated in order to protect the patients and physicians from unnecessary speculations in …

Currently there are conflicting results regarding optic neuropathy in diabetes mellitus. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate optic neuropathy in diabetic patients. We studied visual evoked potentials (VEPs) in 20 diabetic patients (6 insulin dependent, 14 noninsulin dependent; 8 women, 12 men; mean age: 49.70± 18.22 years; mean duration of diabetes: 9.33 ± 5.75 years) and 20 age-, and sex-matched healthy subjects (7 women, 13 men; mean age: 52.40 ± 16.02 years) as a control group. Nine of 20 diabetic patients had sensorimotor neuropathy, and 5 diabetic patients had both sensorimotor neuropathy and autonomic neuropathy, as …

In this study, the blood flow velocity waveforms of the leiomyoma, uterine artery and myometrium with color doppler ultrasound were analyzed in patients with postoperative diagnosis of benign uterine leiomyomas and 15 healthy volunteers as a control group were enrolled into the study. The lowest RI and PI values obtained from uterine leiomyomas were 0.39 and 0.93. Mean RI and PI values obtained from uterine leiomyomas were 0.39 and 0.93. Mean RI of mometrial blood flow was 0.57, while mean PI was 0.98. These measurements were done by using the color flows that were obtained from either center visualized and …

The purpose of this study is to examine the morphological effect which appears in acini and ductus of palatine glands in patients wearing total prostheses. Acini had considerably wide lumens due to de-generation and desquamation in secretory epithelial cells in those who wear prostheses during varying periods. It was observed that, in regions adjacent to the apical membrane in most of the epithelial cells of acini and excretory canals, large vacuoles were formed, whereas in some others, cytoplasm was disarranged due to membrane destruction. Cytoplasmic structures which were encountered in these cells underwent to degeneration and desquamation as well as …
Mannoprotein Adhesin Of Candida Albicansgerm Tubes, Gülhan Vardar-Ünlü
Mannoprotein Adhesin Of Candida Albicansgerm Tubes, Gülhan Vardar-Ünlü
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
The production and detection of a mannoprotein adhesin (MPA) of the hyphal-form cells of C. albicans on plastic petri dishes was investigated. Using Concanavalin A-coated latex microspheres, the MPA was detected on the plastic surface on which C. albicans produced germ tubes. The adhesin was extracted using dithiothreitol and iodoacetamide. It did not inhibit the adhesion of the yeast-form C. albicans to buccal epithelial cells (BEC). This suggested that the MPA of the hyphal-form cells on the plastic was different from that on the yeast cells responsible for attachment to the BECs.
Limited Joint Mobility In 77 Children With Type Idiabetes Mellitus And Correlation To Otherdiabetic Complications, Ayşenur Ökten, Gülay Kaya, Gülay Karagüzel, Yusuf Gedi̇k, Yakup Aslan

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
We investigated limited joint mobility in 77 patients with type I diabetes mellitus. The patients were also assesed for neuropathy, retinopathy and pulmonary complications. The prevalence of limited joint mobility was 47%. Skin changes were present in 87% of patients with diabetes of more than 5 years' duration. No relationship was found between limited joint mobility and metabolic control, but there was a very strong correlation between limited joint mobility and other diabetic complications such as neuropathy, nephropathy and retinopathy. We did not find any differences in the pulmonary function tests of patients with and without limited joint mobility. We …

Hypervolemia is supposed to be the principal factor in hypertension in chronic hemodialysis adults. In this study, the role of intensive ultrafiltration (UF) treatment to reduce hypertension due to hypervolemia in hemodialysis children was investigated. The inferior vena cava (IVC) was also evaluated as an index of UF therapy. Twenty-three hemodialysis children with the mean age 10.6±3.1 years were classified due to their blood pressure status. IVC measurements were performed with 2-D echocardiography and inferior vena cava index (IVCI) was calculated as diameter of inferior vena cava (mm)/ body surface area (m 2 ). UF therapy was applied to each …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) may present in various clinical forms, either sporadic or a counterpart of hereditary endocrine disorders. The appropriate surgical procedure for MTC is total thyroidectomy combined with central neck clearance. The aim of this study was to document the initial clinical presentation, surgical treatment and clinical course of MTC in 27 patients. Thirteen (48.1%) cases were diagnosed as hereditary, either MEN 2a(7/27, 25.9%) or 2b syndrome (1/27, 3.7%) or familial non-MEN MTC (5/27, 18.5%), and fourteen cases were diagnosed as sporadic. Eighteen primary thyroid operations and twelve reoperative surgical procedures were performed on 24 patients. Eleven of …

Noise Induced Hearing Loss Among Cottontextile And Carpet Mill Workers, Melikşah Ertem, Ersen İlçi̇n, Faruk Meri̇ç
Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
In industry increased mechanisation results in increased noise levels. Operation of textile machines carries a high risk of hearing loss. In this study the evaluation of textile worker's noise induced hearing loss was reviewed cross sectionally. The hearing of 260 textile workers exposed to noise levels between 85-95 dB(A) in carpet and cotton textile factories was assessed by means of air and bone conductance audiograms obtained. The subjects were grouped into five hearing categories according to hearing thresholds at 125 to 8000 Hz with Klockhoffs classification. The prevalence of the grade-3 hearing loss was 47.92% and grade 4-5 was 9.21% …

Turkish Journal of Medical Sciences
Endogenous leukotrienes (LT) levels in plasma and urine samples, and LT levels released from stimulated leukocytes in vitro were examined in children with steroid sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS). Plasma LT concentrations were found to be higher in the SSNS group than in healthy subjects. Subjects with SSNS were also shown to have high levels of urinary cysteinyl-LTs and LTB 4 , while healthy children had only urinary LTE 4 levels. In the second part of the study, peripheral leukocytes of patients and heatlhy children were stimulated by Ca ionophore, A23187. We detected significantly higher levels of LTs in patients with …
