Craniomaxillofacial Surgery with Computer-generated Three-dimensional Solid Models.

Objectives: Restoring complex craniofacial deformities presents numerous challenges. Recent years have seen the development of new surgical techniques aimed at improving operation quality and reducing difficulty. However, designing the reduction volume for the affected region and achieving precise contouring remain difficult tasks.

Reclassification of Urinary Cytology according to the Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology Correlation with Histological Diagnosis.

Introduction: The Paris System for Reporting Urinary Cytology (TPS) was designed to provide precise diagnostic criteria when evaluating urine cytology and standardize the terminology used in reporting. In our study, we have aimed to determine the effect of TPS on the diagnostic performance of urine cytology, its impact on establishing appropriate risk stratification, and its effectiveness in the diagnosis and follow-up of the patients.

Methods: We reevaluated 200 liquid-based urine cytologies with available histological diagnoses reported between 2015 and 2021 according to TPS criteria and compared them with the original cytological diagnoses.

Relationship between peroneus longus tendon graft thickness and anthropometric variables: a radiographic study using ultrasonography.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of anthropometric measurements for two-stranded peroneus longus tendon (PLT) graft thickness using ultrasonography MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on 204 healthy volunteers (102 males and 102 females) aged 18-40 years. Anthropometric measurements were recorded, including height, weight, body mass index (BMI), fibular length, calf circumference, and ankle circumference. The Tegner Activity Scale (TAS) was used to assess activity levels.

The Efficacy of Glecaprevir/Pibrentasvir in Chronic Hepatitis C Patients and the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Multicenter Real-Life Data.

Objective: This study aimed to demonstrate the real-life efficacy and safety of glecaprevir /pibrentasvir in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C, as well as to identify the problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the follow-up and treatment of patients.

Materials And Methods: The study was conducted retrospectively with the participation of researchers from universities or training and research hospitals. It included patients with chronic hepatitis C who were over 18 years of age, treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced, had detectable HCV RNA and were receiving glecaprevir/pibrentasvir treatment.

Prognostic Evaluation of Hemoglobin, Albumin, Lymphocyte, and Platelet (HALP) Score and Hematological Indices in Classic Hodgkin Lymphoma.

Introduction: Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) constitutes 10% of all lymphoma diagnoses and accounts for 5% of lymphoma-related deaths. Accurate prognostication in HL remains crucial, particularly given that 10%-20% of patients may receive either insufficient or excessive treatment. This study investigates the effect of hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet (HALP) score, which is a marker of inflammation status and nutrition, at the time of diagnosis for the patients with HL on prognosis.

Real-world data on Empagliflozin and Dapagliflozin use in patients with HEART failure: The RED-HEART study.

Aims: We aimed to determine the use of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) and to identify clinical factors associated with their use in patients with heart failure (HF) in a real-life setting.

Methods: Real-world data on Empagliflozin and Dapagliflozin use in patients with HEART failure: The RED-HEART study is a multicentre, cross-sectional and observational study that included HF patients in the outpatient setting regardless of ejection fraction from 19 cardiology centres between August 2023 and December 2023.

Results: The study population consisted of 1923 patients with HF, predominantly men (61.

Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: Key Points for Safer Surgery.

To review measures for safer functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). PubMed, EBSCO, UpToDate, Proquest Central at Kırıkkale University, Google, and Google Scholar were used in the literature review. The search was performed using keywords of "functional endoscopic sinus surgery," "FESS," "Safety," "Image-Guided," and "complications" between 2000 and 2024.

Red blood cell in preeclampsia: attenuated nitric oxide generation and enhanced reactive oxygen species formation and eryptosis.

Preeclampsia (PE) pathogenesis is strongly related to diminished nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and enhanced oxidative stress. Emerging evidence suggests that red blood cells (RBCs) eNOS enzyme contributes to systemic NO bioavailability by its ability of both NO and ROS generation. We aimed to investigate RBC eNOS enzyme activity, NO and ROS generation capacity, eryptosis index and aggregation levels in preeclamptic and uncomplicated pregnant women.

Should intravitreal dexamethasone implant in refractory diabetic macular edema be used as an adjuvant therapy or switch therapy?

Purpose: To compare the outcomes of intravitreal dexamethasone implant used as either an adjuvant or a switching therapy for diabetic macular edema in patients with poor anatomic response after three consecutive monthly injections of ranibizumab.

Methods: This retrospective study included patients with diabetic macular edema who received three consecutive doses of ranibizumab as initial therapy and demonstrated poor response. A single dose of intravitreal de xamethasone implant was administered to these patients.
