The association between abdominal ultrasound findings and clinical severity in MIS-C children with extracardiac symptoms.

Unlabelled: This study aimed to evaluate pathological findings on abdominal ultrasonography upon admission of children diagnosed with Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) that were associated with a more severe disease course and the need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission. This retrospective and observational study was conducted between March 2020 and May 2022. Abdominal ultrasonography findings were evaluated in children diagnosed with MIS-C associated with SARS-CoV-2.

Clinical course of primary empty sella in children: a singlecenter experience.

Background: Various studies, mainly conducted in adults, have examined the hormonal axis in primary empty sella (PES), and reported various forms of pituitary deficiencies. We report our experience with PES in pediatric patients in terms of pituitary function, associated impairments, and responses to treatment.

Methods: We reviewed 10,560 cranial and 325 pituitary magnetic resonance imagings (MRIs) performed at our university hospital between January 2010 and December 2020 and identified patients with PES.

Efficacy of aromatase inhibitor therapy in a case with large cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumour-associated prepubertal gynaecomastia.

Objectives: Large cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumours (LCCSCTs) are one of the infrequent causes of prepubertal gynaecomastia. Most of these tumours are in the content of Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) or other familial syndromes (Carney complex).

Case Presentation: Here, we report a long-term follow-up of an 8.

Optic neuritis in CD59 deficiency: an extremely rare presentation.

Background: CD59 is the principal cell inhibitor of complement membrane attack on cells. Stroke, peripheral neuropathy, and recurrent central nervous system attacks have been reported in patients with inherited CD59 deficiency. In this paper, we report a patient with CD59 deficiency associated with two attacks of demyelinating peripheral neuropathy and the third attack as an isolated optic neuritis.

Recurrent painful ophthalmoplegic neuropathy: a report of two new pediatric cases.

Background: Recurrent painful ophthalmologic neuropathy (RPON), formerly known as ophthalmoplegic migraine, is characterized by repeated attacks of one or more ocular cranial nerve palsies with an ipsilateral headache. While steroid therapy has been reported to be beneficial for attacks, no clear consensus on prophylactic treatments exists. We present two cases emphasizing the diagnostic significance of the loss of enhancement during the symptom-free period and valproate as a beneficial option in prophylaxis.

Determination of some quality properties of "hamsi kaygana" prepared with different additives.

This study was aimed to determine the changes of the local anchovy meal which is known as hamsi kaygana in Turkey during cold storage at +4°C ± 1°C. Physicochemical (pH, TVB-N, TMA-N, and TBA) shelf life analyses were carried out for hamsi kaygana samples. It was confirmed that the pH values obtained from research groups were within the limit values of the literature.
