Öğe Laparoscopic versus open cholecystectomy: Effect on pulmonary function tests(H G E Update Medical Publ Ltd., 2000) Coskun, I; Hatipoglu, AR; Topaloglu, A; Yoruk, Y; Yalcinkaya, S; Caglar, TBackground/Aims: Operations often cause impairment in respiration due to pain. This study was designed to compare the changes in pulmonary function tests after open and laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methodology: Two groups of 35 patients were randomly set up. Each patient had 3 pulmonary function tests performed and 2 postero-anterior grid chest roentgenograms taken. All of these data were evaluated by the same group of investigators. Results: After taking into consideration the difference between pulmonary function tests, values were not significant (P less than or equal to 0.05). All pulmonary function test values decreased significantly on the 1st postoperative day (P less than or equal to 0.05). When postero-anterior chest roentgenograms were compared no clinically evident atelectasis except 3 lineary was seen in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy group, whereas 5 lineary, 7 focal, and 3 segmentary atelectasia were encountered in the open cholecystectomy group (P less than or equal to 0.05). Conclusions: We believe that laparoscopic cholecystectomy has more advantages when speaking of postoperative pulmonary function tests and atelectasia.Öğe Laparoscopic versus open cholecystectomy: effect on pulmonary function tests [Proceedings Papert](Medimond S R L, 1998) Coskun, I; Topaloglu, A; Yoruk, Y; Yalcinkaya, S; Caglar, TTo compare the changes in pulmonary function tests (PFT) after open and laparoscopic cholecystectomy, two groups of 25 patients were set up. Each patient had 3 PFTs performed and 2 PA grid chest roentgenograms taken. After taken into consideration the difference between PFT values were not significant (p less than or equal to 0.05). All PFT values decreased significantly on the first postoperative day (p less than or equal to 0.05). When PA chess roentgenograms were compared no clinically evident atelectasis except 1 lineary was seen in laparoscopic cholecystectomy group whereas 3 lineary, 4 focal, and 1 segmentary atelectasia were encountered in open cholecystectomy group (p less than or equal to 0.05). We believe that laparoscopic cholecystectomy has more advantages when speaking of postoperative PFT and atelectasia.Öğe Levels of superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde in primary spontaneous pneumothorax(Carfax Publishing, 2004) Tabakoglu, E; Ciftci, S; Hatipoglu, ON; Altiay, G; Caglar, TTHE aim of the present study is to determine whether patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) are subject to oxidative stress. For this purpose, we measured the activities of red blood cell superoxide dismutase, which is an antioxidant enzyme, and the level of plasma malondialdehyde, which is one of the lipid peroxidation markers, in a group of patients with PSP. The study was carried out with 16 patients with PSP and 24 healthy individuals. The two groups were similar to each other in terms of sex, age and smoking attitudes. Erythrocyte superoxide dismutase activity was found to be significantly lower in patients with PSP than in the control group (p < 0.01). The plasma malondialdehyde levels were significantly high in patients with PSP (p < 0.01). Our results suggest that oxidative stress may contribute to the pathogenesis of PSP.Öğe Patellar metastasis from a lung epidermoid carcinoma(Yonsei Univ College Medicine, 1998) Aktas, S; Demiral, H; Bilgi, S; Caglar, T; Calpur, OUPatellar metastases are very rare. There have been approximately 20 cases reported in the literature. We have also noted two Other reports of patellar metastasis from lung carcinoma as the first manifestation of lung cancer in our literature review. We present a case of patellar metastasis; as the first manifestation of lung epidermoid carcinoma in a patient who was a smoker for 33 years.Öğe The prevalence of allergic diseases in primary school children in Edirne, Turkey(Blackwell Science Ltd, 1997) Selcuk, ZT; Caglar, T; Enunlu, T; Topal, TBackground Allergic diseases present a major health burden for children as shown by the rising morbidity and increased mortality from asthma. Information on the prevalences of allergic disorders and contributing factors as well will help to establish feasible measures to change this trend, and more efficient assignment of the limited health resources. Objective To assess the prevalences of asthma and other allergic diseases and the contribution of various risk factors in primary school children in Edirne, Turkey. Methods Children aged 7 to 12 in primary schools in the municipality and 24 villages of Edirne were surveyed via a questionnaire completed by the parents, The cumulative (lifetime) and current (last 12 months) prevalences of allergic diseases and the presence of passive smoking, atopic family history, animal contact and breast-feeding in infancy were determined. Results A total of 5412 children (70.1% from the metropolitan and 29.9% from the rural area) were enrolled, The cumulative and current prevalences of all allergic diseases were 24.6% and 9.9% respectively. The cumulative (lifetime) prevalences of bronchial asthma, wheezing, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis were 16.4%, 18.9%, 12.3% and 2.2%, and the current (last 12 months) prevalences were 5.6%, 5.8%, 4.5% and 0.9% respectively. Three-fourths of the children were exposed to tobacco smoke at home. Atopic heredity appeared the most prominent risk factor for any allergic disorder. Neither age, breast-feeding nor place of habitation affected the occurrence of allergic disorders. Animal contact was a significant risk factor for asthma and wheezing (adjusted odd ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for current prevalences are 1.38 (CI = 1.04-1.83) and 1.35 (CI = 1.02-1.78) respectively), exposure to indoor tobacco smoke for wheezing (OR = 1.52, CI = 1.10-2.09), and male gender for asthma (OR = 1.50, CI = 1.16-1.93). Current prevalences for all allergic diseases were significantly lower than those previously reported in Ankara, Turkey. Conclusions Allergic diseases are a major health burden for primary school children in Edirne, Turkey. Although atopic heredity appears to be the foremost important risk factor, reduction of exposure to indoor tobacco smoke and animal contact, especially or those with atopic family history, are important preventive measures. The impact of environmental exposures on distinguishing prevalences of allergic diseases in Ankara and Edirne should be further investigated.Öğe Videothoracoscopic biopsy in pleural disorders(Monduzzi Editore, 1996) Yoruk, Y; Sunar, H; Caglar, T; Mehmet, R[Abstract Not Available]
