The Burden of Care and Burnout in Individuals Caring for Patients with Alzheimer's Disease.

Alzheimer's disease imposes a severe burden upon patients and their caregivers. We examined the relationship between the sociodemographic factors, burden of care and burnout level of 120 of 203 professional caregiving staff dealing with Alzheimer's disease patients in eight geriatric care centers in Istanbul/Turkey. The Zarit Caregiver Burden Scale was used to measure the level of burden of care, and the Maslach burnout inventory to measure the level of burnout.

Viburnum opulus: could it be a new alternative, such as lemon juice, to pharmacological therapy in hypocitraturic stone patients?

Objective: Citrate, potassium, and calcium levels in Viburnum opulus (V. opulus) and lemon juice were compared to evaluate the usability of V. opulus in mild to moderate level hypocitraturic stone disease.

Antidiabetic drug metformin is effective on the metabolism of asymmetric dimethylarginine in experimental liver injury.

Aims: We aimed to investigate the pharmacological efficiency of metformin on asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) metabolism in inflammation caused by the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)/D-galactosamine (D-GalN) treatment.

Methods: Adult Sprague-Dawley rats were injected LPS/D-GalN intraperitoneally. One half of the animals was injected metformin (250 mg kg(-1) body mass for one week) prior to LPS/D-GalN treatment.

Fahr syndrome unknown complication: overactive bladder.

A 38-year-old male patient was admitted to our outpatient department because of frequency and urgency incontinence. During evaluation it was detected that the patient was suffering from frequency which was progressive for one year, feeling of incontinence, and urgency incontinence. There was no urologic pathology detected in patient's medical and family history.

Evaluation of turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay (TINIA) and HPLC methods for glycated haemoglobin determination.

Background: Various factors may affect the accuracy of hemoglobin (Hb) A1c measurements that are widely used to monitor glycemic control in diabetic patients. This study was aimed to compare the values of HbA1c obtained by two different methods, Roche Tina-quant second and thirdgeneration HbA1c assays based on the turbidimetric inhibition immunoassay (TINIA), and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) cation-exchange method used by Arkray Adams HA-8160 analyzer.

Methods: Measurements of HbA1c were carried out in blood samples from 2,917 patients using above-mentioned methods.
