Cardiovascular etiology with report of 3 cases in differential diagnosis of epilepsy
Epilepsi çocukluk çağında %0.5-1 oranında görülen, tekrarlayıcı nöbetlerden oluşan klinik bir tablodur.
Çocukluk çağında senkop görülme insidansı %15 olup, acil servise nöbetle başvuruların%3-5'ine senkop neden
olmaktadır. Genel populasyonda senkopun epilepsiden daha yaygın görülmesine rağmen, bilinç kaybı ve nöbetle
başvuran hastalarda genellikle akla ilk olarak epilepsi gelmektedir. Ayrıntılı tetkikler basta senkop ve diğer
kardiyojenik kökenli hastalıklar olmak üzere diğer non-epileptik paroksizmal olayların da bilinç kaybının nedeni
olduğunu gösterebilir.
Bu yazıda çocuk acil servisi ve çocuk nörolojisi polikliniğine bilinç kaybıyla başvuran ve tetkiklerinde
kardiyovasküler nedenler saptanan üç olgu sunularak, epilepsi ayırıcı tanısında kardiyojenik kökenli senkopların
mutlaka hatırlanması gerektiği vurgulandı.Epilepsy is a disorder with an incidence of 0.5-1.0% in childhood and characterized by recurrent seizures. The incidence of syncope in childhood is 15% and it causes 3-5% of admissions to the emergency department. Although syncope is more frequent than epilepsy in general population, usually epilepsy is the first pre-diagnosis in patients with loss of consciousness and seizures. Detailed investigations may show other reasons like syncope and cardiologic diseases as the cause of loss of consciousness.
In this paper,we present 3 patients admitted to the pediatric emergency department and pediatric neurology clinic with cardiovascular reasons in the etiology of loss of consciousness and pointed out that cardiac syncope should be remembered in the differential diagnosis of epilepsy
The views of provincial educational supervisors on the fifth grade students’ obstacles for reaching to objectives and acquisition of Turkish courseİl eğitim denetmenlerinin gözünden 5. sınıf öğrencilerinin Türkçe dersi amaç ve kazanımlarına erişmesinin önündeki engeller
This study was carried out for the aim of determining the 5th grade students’ obstacles for reaching to objectives and acquisitions of Turkish courses, from the viewpoints of provincial educational supervisors. This study was practiced with 19 provincial educational supervisors working in Adıyaman, Elazığ and Malatya, who check Turkish courses. The data were gathered by qualitative inquiry and semi-structured interviews were adopted. The data were analyzed by content analysis. Supervisor views were sub-categorized by coding. They were handled with from the main themes such as teacher, student, material, school managing; and 16 sub-themes related to main themes. Results indicated that teacher factor was determined the most important obstacle for students to reach to objectives and acquisitions of Turkish courses. This is followed by problems arising from student, material, and school managing. Ignorance of existing students’ problems by teachers, writing problems of students, course book problems, these problems were determined other sub-themes for students not to reach to objectives and acquisitions of Turkish courses. ÖzetBu araştırma, 5. sınıf Türkçe dersinin amaç/kazanımlarına öğrencilerin erişmesinin önündeki engelleri il eğitim denetmenlerinin görüşlerine dayalı olarak belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma; Adıyaman, Elazığ ve Malatya illerinde görev yapan ve Türkçe derslerini denetleyen 19 il eğitim denetmeniyle yürütülmüştür. Araştırmaya ilişkin veriler, nitel araştırma yöntemiyle toplanmış ve denetmenlerle yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan görüşmelerden elde edilen veriler, içerik analizi tekniği ile incelenmiştir. Denetmen görüşleri, kodlanarak alt kategorilere ayrılmış; öğretmen, öğrenci, materyal, okul idaresi ana temaları ve bu temalarla ilişkili 16 alt temaya göre ele alınmıştır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre; öğretmen faktörü, öğrencilerin Türkçe dersinin amaç/ kazanımlarına erişmesinin önündeki en önemli engel olarak tespit edilmiştir. Bunu; öğrenci, materyal ve okul idaresinden kaynaklanan sorunlar takip etmektedir. Öğrencinin gelişim özelliklerinin öğretmen tarafından bilinmemesi, öğrencinin yazma sorunu, ders kitabı ve okul idaresi denetleme sorunu ise 5. sınıf Türkçe dersinin amaç/kazanımlarına öğrencilerin erişmesinin önündeki engelleri oluşturan diğer alt temalar olarak tespit edilmiştir
The association of silicosis severity with pectoralis major muscle and subcutaneous fat volumes and the pulmonary artery/aorta ratio evaluated by CT
PURPOSESilicosis is an incurable occupational disease that sometimes rapidly progresses with fatal outcomes. We aimed to evaluate the association between disease severity and the change in the pectoralis major muscle volume (PMV), subcutaneous fat volume (SFV), and the pulmonary artery/aorta (P/Ao) ratio in patients with silicosis using computed tomography (CT).METHODSThe study included 41 male silicosis patients and 41 control group subjects with available chest CT images. Using dedicated software, we measured PMV and SFV from the axial CT images. We calculated the P/Ao ratio and obtained body mass index (BMI) and forced expiratory volume/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) results from hospital records. We used the chest X-ray profusion score according to the International Labor Organization (ILO) classification to evaluate the severity of the silicosis.RESULTSThe mean age was 33.5±4.4 and 34.7±4.7 years in the silicotic and control groups, respectively. The mean BMI, PMV, SFV, and P/Ao values significantly differed between the study and control groups (P = 0.0009, P < 0.0001, P < 0.0001, and P = 0.0029, respectively). According to the ILO classification, there were 12 silicosis patients in category 1, 13 in category 2, and 16 in category 3. A significant difference was found between disease categories in terms of PMV, SFV, P/Ao, BMI, and FEV1/FVC values (P = 0.0425, P = 0.0341, P = 0.0002, P = 0.0492, and P = 0.0004, respectively).CONCLUSIONDisease severity had a stronger association with decreased PMV and SFV and increased P/Ao ratios than BMI in patients with silicosis caused by denim sandblasting. Thus, CT evaluation might be a useful indicator of disease severity
A Real-Life Turkish Experience of Ruxolitinib in Polycythemia Vera
Introduction:Ruxolitinib is a small -molecule inhibitor of the JAK1/2 pathway. This study aimed to reveal the results and side-effect profile of the use of ruxolitinib as a treatment option in polycythemia vera (PV).Methods:A total of 34 patients with PV from 18 different centers were included in the study. The evaluation of the response under treatment with ruxolitinib was determined as a reduction in spleen volume (splenomegaly size: ≥35%) by imaging and control of hematocrit levels (≤45%) compared to baseline.Results:While the number of patients in which a reduction in spleen volume and hematocrit control was achieved was 19 (55.9%) at 3 months of treatment, it was 21 (61.8%) at 6 months. Additionally, while the number of side effects was negatively correlated with the reduction in spleen volume (Spearman’s rho: -0.365, p=0.034), a decrease in the hematocrit level was positively correlated (Spearman’s rho: 0.75, p=0.029). Those without a reduction in spleen volume experienced more constipation (chi-square: 5.988, Fisher’s exact test: p=0.033).Conclusion:This study shed light on the use of ruxolitinib in PV and the importance of splenomegaly on studies planned with larger patient groups
Sermaye piyasası aracı kurumlarında muhasebe düzeni
ÖZETSERMAYE PİYASASI ARACI KURUMLARINDA MUHASEBE DÜZENİSermaye piyasası, orta ve uzun vadeli fon arz ve talebinin karşılaştığı piyasadır. Sermaye piyasası aracı kurumları, sermaye piyasasına fon arz edenler ile sermaye piyasasından fon talep edenleri buluşturan kurumlardır. Sermaye piyasası aracı kurumlarının muhasebe düzeni, faaliyet alanlarının diğer işletmelerden farklılığı nedeniyle, kendine has birtakım özelliklere sahiptir. Hesap planı, kayıt düzeni, muhasebe belgeleri ve muhasebe defterlerinde diğer işletmelerden önemli farklılıklar gözlenmektedir. Buna karşın sermaye piyasası aracı kurumlarının finansal tablolarının Uluslararası Muhasebe/Finansal Raporlama Standartlarına uygun şekilde düzenlenmesi muhasebede dil birliğinin oluşmasına katkı sağlamıştır. Bu çalışmada, sermaye piyasası aracı kurumlarının muhasebe düzeni derinlemesine incelenmiş ve konuyla ilgili bir uygulamaya yer verilmiştir.
