Evaluation of the simultaneous effects of KRAS G12V and LCS6 alterations on the behavior of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas are the seventh most common cancer accounting for 90 % of malignant neoplasia of the upper respiratory system. KRAS is a very important oncogene, leading to the suppression of apoptosis, and promoting the pathogenesis and development of tumors. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are highly conserved, small noncoding RNA molecules aberrantly expressed in various pathologies including regulation of tumor and metastasis-associated genes.

"The association between HALP score and infection in acute ischemic stroke patients".

Background And Purpose: Stroke-associated infection (SAI) is related to increased mortality in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) cases. The HALP index is used to evaluate nutrition and inflammation. Our research aimed to assess the relation between HALP scores and infection risk in AIS cases.

The Prognostic Nutritional Index and Mortality in Patients With Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Infection.

The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between mortality and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in the pediatric patient group with ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) infection. A total of 63 pediatric patients with a VPS infection and positive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) culture were retrospectively registered. The CSF specimens were analyzed to conduct culture and microscopic evaluation.

Severe preeclampsia complicated by HELLP syndrome alters the structure of Hofbauer and syncytiotrophoblast cells: ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study.

Background: Hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelet count (HELLP) syndrome is generally considered to be a variant or complication of preeclampsia. It is a life-threatening obstetric complication.

Objectives: To evaluate the immunohistochemistry and ultrastructural of syncytiotrophoblastand Hoffbauer cells in placental villi of patients with HELLP syndrome.

Relationship between catheter related cerebrospinal fluid infections and systemic immune-inflammation index.

Background: This study investigated the relationship between the systemic immune inflammation index (SII) and catheter-related infections and their effects on prognosis in pediatric patients.

Methods: A total of 56 pediatric patients diagnosed with ventriculoperitoneal (V-P) shunt infection between January 2017 and October 2019 were included. V-P shunt infection diagnosis was made based on clinical findings.
