The effect of mesenchymal stem cells administration on DNA repair gene expressions in critically ill COVID-19 patients: prospective controlled study.

When the studies are evaluated, immunomodulatory effect of MSCs, administration in critically ill patients, obstacle situations in use and side effects, pulmonary fibrosis prevention, which stem cells and their products, regeneration effect, administration route, and dosage are listed under the main heading like. The effect of MSC administration on DNA repair genes in COVID-19 infection is unknown. Our aim is to determine the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy applied in critically ill patients with coronavirus infection on DNA repair pathways and genes associated with those pathways.

The importance of inflammatory markers in detection of complications in patients with gastric cancer undergoing the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol: a prospective cohort study.

Introduction: Early diagnosis reduces mortality and morbidity rates in gastrointestinal system (GIS) anastomoses.

Aim: The aim of the present study was to investigate the importance of some substances that were used to detect major complications early in patients who were treated in line with the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol for gastric cancer. Factors included in the study were interleukin-1 (IL-1), tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and white blood cell (WBC).

Diagnostic Value of Serum Cytokines in Predicting a Complicated Acute Appendicitis.

The diagnostic role of serum cytokines depends on the etiology and pathogenesis of acute appendicitis but the clinical significance of these cytokines in the differential diagnosis of complicated acute appendicitis remains unclear. To investigate the prediction of progression and diagnostic values of interleukin-6, interleukin-1 beta, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in complicated acute appendicitis. This study was conducted in 100 patients with a definitive diagnosis of acute appendicitis and 20 individuals assigned for the control group.

The Systematic Effect of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy in Critical COVID-19 Patients: A Prospective Double Controlled Trial.

The aim of this clinical trial was to control the cytokine storm by administering mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to critically-ill COVID-19 patients, to evaluate the healing effect, and to systematically investigate how the treatment works. Patients with moderate and critical COVID-19 clinical manifestations were separated as Group 1 (moderate cases, = 10, treated conventionally), Group 2 (critical cases, = 10, treated conventionally), and Group 3 (critical cases, = 10, treated conventionally plus MSCs transplantation therapy of three consecutive doses on treatment days 0, 3, and 6, (as 3 × 10 cells/kg, intravenously). The treatment mechanism of action was investigated with evaluation markers of the cytokine storm, via biochemical parameters, levels of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, analyses of tissue regeneration via the levels of growth factors, apoptosis markers, chemokines, matrix metalloproteinases, and granzyme-B, and by the assessment of the immunomodulatory effects via total oxidant/antioxidant status markers and the levels of lymphocyte subsets.

The Effect of Polypharmacy on the Charlson Comorbidity Index and Katz Index in Aging People with and without Diabetes Mellitus.

Objective: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is growing worldwide, as well as in the aging population, and its comorbidity and mortality rates are higher in aging people than they are in young people. It has been observed that the number of drugs used increases in aging patients, especially in diabetic patients. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between polypharmacy and modified Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) and Katz Index of Independence in Activities of Daily Living (Katz ADL) scores in aging diabetic and non-diabetic patients.
