Evaluation of Surgical Antimicrobial Prophylaxis Compliance: A Multicentre Point Prevalence Study.

Background: This study aimed to determine the frequency of compliance with surgical prophylaxis in Turkey and to identify the causes and risk factors for non-compliance.

Methods: This multi-center, prospective, point prevalence study was conducted in eight hospitals from different regions of Turkey. Patients over 18 years who underwent surgical antimicrobial prophylaxis (SAP) in all hospital surgical units were included in the study.

Enantioselective Addition of 1,3,5,7-Tetramethyl-BODIPYs to Isatins by Bifunctional Quinine-Based Squaramides.

This work describes the development of the first enantioselective addition reaction between 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-BODIPYs and isatin derivatives. The reaction utilizes bifunctional quinine/squaramide organocatalysts and affords nine novel chiral BODIPY dyes under mild conditions, with enantioselectivities reaching up to 60%. The synthesized BODIPY-oxindoles exhibit high fluorescence emissions, consistent with their parent BODIPYs, and display tunable colors.

Two sides of the same coin-sexuality from the perspective of women diagnosed with breast cancer and their partners: A qualitative study.

Purpose: After the diagnosis of breast cancer, women's sexuality becomes complex, and the sexual lives of couples are strongly affected by the treatment process of the disease. The aim of this study is to determine the perceptions, experiences, expectations, and needs related to sexuality from the perspective of women diagnosed with breast cancer and their partners.

Method: In this study, a descriptive qualitative design based on a thematic analysis approach was used.

The importance of targeted next-generation sequencing based genomic profiling in the diagnosis of childhood acute myeloid leukemia: a single center experience.

Background: The management of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is based on the prognostic risk classification of initial leukemia. Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a reliable method used to identify recurrently mutated genes of pediatric AML and associated prognosis.

Methods: In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the prognostic, and therapeutic utility of a targeted NGS panel covering twenty-five genes, in 21 children with de novo and 8 with relapsed or secondary AML.
