Effects of Impaired Fasting Glucose on Aortic Elasticity

Dogan, S. M. | Aktop, Z. | Aydin, M. | Karabag, T. | Sayin, M. R. | Bilici, H. M. | Atmaca, H.

Background: The pathophysiology of atherosclerosis development in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is similar to that in nondiabetics. However, atherosclerosis develops earlier and runs a rapid course in patients with diabetes. Aortic stiffness, strain and distensibility are the parameters used to assess an increase in arterial stiffness and can be measured by invasive and non-invasive methods. Method: Aortic elastic properties were compared among patients with normal oral glucose tolerance test but impaired fasting glucose and healthy individuals. The study group consisted of 50 subjects ...Daha fazlası

Celiac disease in patients having recurrent aphthous stomatitis

Aydemir, Selim | Tekin, Solak Nilgün | Aktunç, Erol | Numanoğlu, Gamze | Üstündağ, Yücel

Amaç: Celiac hastalığı ince barsakların glutene intoleransı sonucu oluşan bir hastalıktır. Epidemiolojik çalışmalarda prevalansı hakkında çok farklı veriler vardı. Hastalarda genellikle çok geniş spektrumda semptom ve bulgulara neden olabildiğinden celiac hastalığı tanısının konulması zor olabilmektedir. Hastalığın erken evrede yakalanması önemlidir. Çünkü bu hastalarda barsak lenfoması gelişme riski artmıştır. Celiac hastalığı olan hastalarda rekürren aftoz stomatit prevalansındaki yükseklik nedeniyle rekürren aftoz stomatitli hastaların celiac hastalığı yönünden araştırılması asemptomatik ce ...Daha fazlası

Treatment of severe amitriptyline intoxication with plasmapheresis

Kolsal, Ebru | Tekin, İshak Özel | Pişkin, Etem | Aydemir, Cumhur | Akyüz, Mehmet | Çabuk, Hasan | Eldes, Nilüfer | Numanoğlu, Kemal Varın

Tricyclic antidepressant poisoning is one of the most common causes of serious intoxication. Here, we report a 2-year-old girl with severe amitriptyline (70 mg/kg) intoxication. She was in comatose, had generalized tonic clonic seizure, ventricular tachycardia, and wide QRS complexes. Although she did not respond to classical therapies, very good clinical response to plasmapheresis was obtained and she developed no complications. Thus, plasmapheresis may be an effective treatment modality in poisoning with drugs, which bind to plasma proteins with high affinity. © 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Vitamin E protects against acetone-induced oxidative stress in rat red blood cells

Armutçu, Feraf | Coşkun, Ömer Faruk | Gürel, Aykut | Şahin, S. | Kanter, Marek | Cihan, Ali | Numanoğlu, Kemal Varın

Acetone may induce oxidative stress leading to disturbance of the biochemical and physiological functions of red blood cells (RBCs) thereby affecting membrane integrity. Vitamin E (vit E) is believed to function as an antioxidant in vivo protecting membranes from lipid peroxidation. The aim of the present study was the evaluation of possible protective effects of vit E treatment against acetone-induced oxidative stress in rat RBCs. Thirty healthy male Wistar albino rats, weighing 200-230 g and averaging 12 weeks old were randomly allotted into one of three experimental groups: Control (A), ace ...Daha fazlası

Pharmacological preconditioning with erythropoietin reduces ischemia-reperfusion injury in the small intestine of rats

Sayan, Hale | Özaçmak, Veysel Haktan | Şen, Feyza | Çabuk, Mehmet | Atik-Yörük, Duygu | Akyıldız-İğdem, Ayşenur | Özaçmak, I. Diler

Aims: Considering the implications that arose from several recent experimental studies using recombinant human erythropoietin in rodents, erythropoietin has been regarded as a pharmacological preconditioning agent. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether erythropoietin has a preconditioning effect against ischemia and reperfusion injury in the small intestine of the rat. Main methods: Intestinal ischemia was induced in male Wistar rats by clamping the superior mesenteric artery for 30 min, followed by reperfusion for 180 min. Recombinant human erythropoietin (1000 or 3000 U/kg ...Daha fazlası

Guttate psoriasis-like lesions following BCG vaccination

Koca, Rafet | Altinyazar, H. Cevet | Numanoğlu, Gamze | Ünalacak, Murat

A 7-year-old boy presented to our clinic with a 1-week history of guttate psoriasis-like lesions after BCG vaccination. Although the patient did not have any history of psoriasis, his father and uncle had a history of psoriasis vulgaris. He was treated successfully with topical corticosteroid. Complete healing was seen after 3 weeks and the patient was still in remission 4 months after the cessation of the therapy. We proposed that patients who have psoriasis or predisposition to psoriasis must be carefully followed after BCG vaccination. © Oxford University Press 2004; all rights reserved.

Protective effects of L-arginine on rat terminal ileum subjected to ischemia/reperfusion

Sayan, Hale | Özaçmak, Veysel Haktan | Altaner, Şemsi | Aktaş, R. Gülhan | Arslan, S. Oktay

OBJECTIVES: Studies have shown that nitric oxide (NO) may play a major role in sustaining mucosal integrity; however, NO has been also implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R)-related tissue injury. We investigated the effects of L-arginine and N-nitro L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) on the acetylcholine-induced contractile response of ileum and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and reduced glutathione (GSH). Histopathological changes were also evaluated in ileal preparations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male Wistar Albino rats were subjected to mesenteric ischemia (30 min) f ...Daha fazlası
