- Iatrogenic bleeding during bronchoscopy can cause serious complications like early termination, inadequate samples, reduced diagnostic accuracy, and even death.

- Current treatments involve vasoconstriction and enhancing coagulation, but there's a lack of robust studies on the effectiveness and safety of these agents, leading to uncertainty in best practices.
Introduction: Oxygen desaturation is a significant event during bronchoscopy. In this study, it was aimed to identify factors related to oxygen desaturation during flexible bronchoscopy (FB) and Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS).
Materials And Methods: From 16 April 2019 to 14 February 2020, 196 consecutive patients (146 FB and 50 EBUS) undergoing bronchoscopy were evaluated retrospectively.

Background: A few studies have implied that patients with bronchiectasis have a more inactive lifestyle than healthy counterparts do. The main objective of this study was to compare physical activity (PA) levels subjectively and objectively between patients with bronchiectasis and healthy individuals using an accelerometer and a questionnaire.
Methods: The study included 41 patients with bronchiectasis aged 18-65 years and 35 healthy age- and sex-matched control subjects.
To assess change in prevalence and risk factors of asthma and allergic diseases among primary school children in rural and urban parts of Edirne, Turkey, a series of cross-sectional studies were conducted in 1994 and 2004. A questionnaire was administered to the parents of primary school children aged 7-12, in urban and rural parts of Edirne, Turkey (5412 in 1994 and 5735 in 2004).
