    El ingreso de los alumnos es libre a su entreno diario, hay base de datos a la que solo tiene acceso el administrador quien no va a diario a actualizarla; se presentan dos situaciones la secretaria cobra a los alumnos y si están al día pues hay incomodidad para el y a veces no es bien recibido el cobro; o que esté vencido y en ocasiones de varios días (excediendo los plazos). No hay lector de huellas ó carnét para pasar por banda lectora, tampoco hay registradora, ésta es una situación repetitiva generando malos entendidos y falencias en el servicio al client

    An 18-year-old man was admitted to the clinic complaining of deterioration in the function of his hands and feet. The clinical examination revealed that his movements were clumsy and that he had disproportionally short limbs. In addition, he also had facial abnormalities of frontal bossing, hypertelorism, maxillary hypoplasia, broad low nasal bridge, short upturned nose with anteverted nostrils and triangular mouth. All extremities appeared short with stubby fingers and toes and with broad hands and wrinkling of the dorsal skin. Chromosomal analysis showed a normal (46, XY) karyotype. X-ray studies revealed broad, short metacarpals and phalanges with cone-shaped epiphyses and brachycdactyly and a diagnosis of peripheral dysostosis was confirmed by the characteristic radiographic appearance of the hands. Serum calcium and alkaline phosphatase levels were high, parathormone (PTH) was low, but 25 (OH) Vitamin D, albumin, and 24 hour urine calcium levels were in the normal range. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of acrodysostosis associated with hypercalcemia was made. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first description of this syndrome

    Background: Chronic periodontitis (CP) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) appear to share many pathologic features. Oxygen metabolism has an important role in the pathogenesis of both CP and RA. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between these two chronic inflammatory diseases with regard to antioxidant and oxidant status. Methods: A total of 80 participants were divided into four groups of 20 each: group RA–CP (patients with RA and CP), group RA (periodontally healthy patients with RA), group CP (systemically healthy patients with CP), and group C (periodontally and systemically healthy volunteers) were included in the study. After assessment of periodontal measurements, gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) samples were taken at one incisor, premolar, and molar tooth and stored with serum samples at -80 C for the antioxidant/oxidant assay. Results: Although all clinical measurements in groups RA–CP and CP were statistically higher compared to those of C and RA groups (P 0.05). GCF total oxidant status (TOS) values of CP and RA–CP groups were higher than those of the RA group (P 0.05). Conclusions: Local OSI values in groups with patients with CP were higher, whereas systemic OSI values showed no difference among the groups. The presence of RA seems not to affect local and systemic OSI values in patients with C

    Bu çalışmada amacımız kliniğimizde gerçekleştirdiğimiz enfiye çukuru arteriyovenöz fistüllerin sonuçlarını analiz ederek bu yöntemi tartışmaktır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: 1999-2007 yılları arasında kliniğimizde düzenli takipleri olan 272 enfiye çukuru arteriyovenöz fıstül geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Gerekli bilgiler hasta dosyalarından ve diyaliz notlarından elde edilmiştir. Tüm olgular yaş, cinsiyet, son dönem böbrek yetmezliği etyolojisi, fistül olgunlaşma ve fistül açıklık oranları açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: Hastaların 115'i (%44) kadın, 143 u (%56) erkek ve ortalama yaşları 40.5±8.5 idi. Ortanca takip süresi 50 ay (3-65 ay)'dır. Etyolojide en sık görülen neden %32 diabetes mellitustur. Altı hafta sonundaki olgunlaşma oranı %85 olarak tespit edildi. Bir yıllık açıklık oranları %82 ve 4 yıllık açıklık oranı %53'dir. Fistül açıklık oranları diyabetik olan ve olmayanlarda, erkekler ve kadınlarda, sağ kol ve sol kol AVF'lerde karşılaştırıldığında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık olmadığı görülmüştür. Sonuç: İyi bir fizik muayene ile enfiye çukuru fistülün uygunluğu değerlendirilebilir. Enfiye çukuru fistüllerin iyi olgunlaşma ve uzun dönem açıklık oranları vardır. İlk fistül açılacak uygun hastalarda iyi bir seçimdir. In this study, we aimed to discuss this method by analyzing snuff-box arteriovenous fistula outcomes in our experience. Material and Methods: We analyzed the outcomes of 272 snuffbox arteriovenous fistulas created between 1999-2007. Data was determined patients charts and dialysis records. Patients' demographics, end stage renal disease etiology, fistula maturation and patency rates, complications were evaluated retrospectively. Results: Of the 272 patients, 115 (46%) were women and 143 (54%) were men. The mean age of patients was 40.5+8.5. median follow up period of fistulas was 50 months (range 3-65 months). The most frequent etiologic disease of end stage renal disease was Diabetes mellitus (32%). The maturation rate of snuffbox arteriovenous fistula was 85%. One year and 4 year patency rates were 82% and 53 % respectively. Diabetes, sex and side of the extremity did not significantly affect fistula survival. Conclusion: Feasibility of snuff-box arteriovenous fistula was evaluated with the physical examination of this area. Snuffbox arteriovenous fistulas have good maturation and long-term patency rates. This type of fistulas may be the first choice for suitable patients requiring primary access

    Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’deki romatoid artrit hastalarının demografik ve klinik özelliklerini ortaya koyarak bu hastalar için oluşturulabilecek önlem, tedavi ve destek stratejilerine ışık tutmaktır. Hastalar ve yöntemler: Bu çalışma kapsamında Eylül 2007 - Mart 2011 tarihleri arasında Türkiye’nin farklı bölgelerindeki toplam 36 merkezden Türkiye Romatizma Araştırma ve Savaş Derneği (TRASD) kayıt sistemine kaydedilen 2.359 hasta (1.966 kadın, 393 erkek; ort. yaş 51.6±12.5 yıl; dağılım 18-75 yıl) değerlendirildi. Hastaların demografik ve klinik verileri kaydedildi. Hastalık aktivitesi, fonksiyonel durum ve radyografik hasar sırasıyla hastalık aktivite skoru 28, sağlık değerlendirme anketi ve van der Heijde modifiye Sharp puanlama yöntemi ile ölçüldü. Bulgular: Akademik eğitim süresi ortalama 5.2±3.8 yıldı ve hastaların %74.6’sı ev hanımıydı. Hastaların %91.0’ı biyolojik olmayan hastalık modifiye edici ilaçlar, %10.2’si biyolojik hastalık modifiye edici ilaçlar kullanıyordu. Ortalama hastalık aktivite skoru 28, sağlık değerlendirme anketi ve Sharp puanları sırasıyla, 4.0±1.4, 0.38±0.37 ve 31.2±57.1 idi. Hastaların %17.8’i remisyonda ve %14.1’i düşük hastalık aktivitesinde iken %42.7’si orta hastalık aktivitesinde ve %25.5’i yüksek hastalık aktivitesinde idi. Sonuç: Türkiye’de romatoid artrit hastalarının çoğunluğu orta yaşlı ev hanımlarıdır. Her ne kadar hastalık modifiye edici ilaç kullanımı yüksek oranda ise de hastaların büyük bölümü orta ve yüksek hastalık aktivite düzeyinde idi. Bu bulgular romatoid artritli hastaların tedavi gereksinimlerinin yeterli olarak karşılanmadığını düşündürmektedir.Objectives: This study investigates the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in Turkey, and attempts to identify strategies for the prevention, treatment, and support of RA. Patients and methods: A total of 2,359 patients (1,966 females, 393 males; mean age 51.6±12.5 years; range 18 to 75 years) with RA from 36 centers across Turkey, who were recorded in the Turkish League Against Rheumatism (TLAR) RA Registry between September 2007 and March 2011, were evaluated. Patients’demographic and clinical data were recorded. Disease activity, functional status, and radiographic damage were measured using the Disease Activity Score 28, the Health Assessment Questionnaire, and van der Heijde modified Sharp scoring method. Results: The mean duration of academic education received was 5.2±3.8 years, and 74.6% of the patients were homemakers. Non-biological disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs were used by 91.0% of the patients, while 10.2% used biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs. The mean Disease Activity Score 28, Health Assessment Questionnaire, and Sharp scores were 4.0±1.4, 0.38±0.37, and 31.2±57.1, respectively. Of the patients, 17.8% were in remission and 14.1% had low disease activity rates, while 42.7% and 25.5% had moderate and high disease activity rates. Conclusion: The majority of patients with RA in Turkey are middle-aged homemakers. Despite the high rates of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs use, the majority of patients had moderate and high disease activity. These findings indicate that treatment needs of RA patients are not met sufficiently
