Monitoring recurrent angioedema: Findings from the Turkish angioedema control test validation study.

Background: Determination of control level in recurrent angioedema (RAE) is necessary to guide management. Here, we validated a Turkish version of the angioedema control test (AECT) for 4-week (AECT-4wk) and for 3-month (AECT-3mth) and assessed their utility in monitoring RAE.

Method: The recommended structured translation process for patient-reported outcome measures was completed.

Comparative Analysis of Transcriptome Profiles in Patients with Thromboangiitis Obliterans.

Background: Thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) causes vascular insufficiency due to chronic inflammation and abrupt thrombosis of the medium and small arteries of the extremities. In our study, we aimed to determine biomarkers for the diagnosis of TAO by evaluating 15 male TAO patients with Shinoya diagnostic criteria and 5 healthy controls who did not have TAO-related symptoms in their family histories.

Methods: The Clariom D Affymetrix platform was used to conduct microarray analysis on total RNA extracted from whole blood.
