The Pericoracoid Tissue Release in Children With Brachial Plexus Birth Injury.

Purpose: In brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI), children with upper trunk injuries have multidirectional movement deficits, including global abduction and hand-to-neck, hand-to-abdomen, and hand-to-spine movements. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of pericoracoid tissue release and postoperative structured physiotherapy as a first-step intervention to reduce the multidirectional movement deficit in children with BPBI.

Methods: Thirty-four children with BPBI underwent pericoracoid tissue release, including coracohumeral and coracoacromial ligament release, pectoralis minor release, and coracoid process osteotomy.

The Effect of Preoperative Carbohydrate-containing Fluid Consumption on Maternal Oxidative Stress Markers During Elective Cesarean Delivery.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of carbohydrate loading prior to the cesarean surgery under spinal anesthesia on thiols and ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) levels.

Design: Prospective, randomized placebo-controlled study.

Methods: Seventy-nine pregnant women planned for cesarean sections under spinal anesthesia at Karaman Training and Research Hospital were randomized into a control group (group C) (n = 42), and an oral carbohydrate preloading group (group OCH) (n = 37).

Fetal Biometric Parameter Reference Charts of a Central Anatolian Turkish Population.

Purpose: The assessment of fetal biometry using ultrasound provides accurate pregnancy dating and also screening of fetal growth. Fetal biometry, which is common practice in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, is fetal morphometry, which involves taking measurements of the different anatomical body parts. These fetal dimensions vary on ethnicity.

A serious consequence of pelvic organ prolapse: Hydroureteronephrosis.

Introduction And Hypothesis: We aimed to determine the association between pelvic organ prolapse (POP) and hydroureteronephrosis (HUN), risk factors for developing HUN and resolution of HUN after surgery.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 528 patients diagnosed with uterine prolapse.

Results: All patients with or without HUN were compared in terms of risk factors.

Analysis of the effect of hashimoto's thyroiditis and insulin resistance on ovarian volume in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Objective: In this study, patients were divided into two groups. Patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and patients with polycystic ovary syndrome + Hashimoto's Thyroid (PCOS + HT). The effect of insulin resistance on ovarian volume in patients divided into two groups and the change in ovarian volume with the addition of HT to PCOS will be investigated.
