Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a rare condition following SARS-CoV-2 infection associated with intestinal manifestations. Genetic predisposition, including inborn errors of the OAS-RNAseL pathway, has been reported. We sequenced 154 MIS-C patients and utilized a novel statistical framework of gene burden analysis, "burdenMC," which identified an enrichment for rare predicted-deleterious variants in BTNL8 (OR = 4.

Due to the increasing use of laparoscopy for symptomatic cholelithiasis and other gallbladder disorders, as well as the ongoing issue of associated biliary tree injuries, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) still holds a significant position in the diagnosis and treatment of postcholecystectomy disorders. In our study, we aimed to examine the relationship between the time elapsed between cholecystectomy and ERCP with the post-ERCP complications. Ninety-six patients with a history of cholecystectomy who underwent ERCP between January 2016 and January 2021 at the General Surgery Clinic of the University of Health Sciences Bakırköy Dr.

Introduction: Recent studies have documented the cardiovascular consequences of acute coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), although one of the early cardiac markers that can be used for diagnosis, the heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP), has not been covered. Through the evaluation of H-FABP levels, we aim to contribute to the early diagnosis and treatment of cardiac problems in COVID-19 infection patients.
Methodology: Seventy-five patients who were admitted to the emergency department of Mehmet Akif Ersoy Hospital with a complaint of chest pain in the last 6 hours and whose corona PCR tests were positive, were included in our study as the case group and 60 healthy volunteers as the control group.

Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a long pentraxin, is not only released from dendritic cells and neutrophils but also from epithelial and endothelial cells such as alveolar epithelium. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) initially activates the innate immune system, causing a complex immune response. Clinical and experimental studies suggest that PTX3, a locally and systemically secreted marker, can be used as a predictor of the severity and mortality in respiratory infections.

Background: Splenosis refers to the autotransplantation of splenic tissue in a heterotopic location throughout different anatomic compartments, such as the peritoneal and pelvic cavities and even the thoracic cavity. Intrahepatic splenosis is very rare and usually mistaken for a neoplasm. The lack of typical radiological features makes it difficult to distinguish splenosis from liver tumors.

Objective: The feasibility of tracer production of technetium (Tc)-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-I&S sterile cold kit, imaging with single photon emission tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT), and Tc-PSMA-radioguided robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (Tc-PSMA-RG-RALRP) technique for lymph node (LN) dissection of primary prostate cancer (PCa) patients were evaluated prospectively.
Methods: Fifteen primary PCa patients with intermediate- or high-risk score according to D'Amico risk stratification who had PSMA receptor affinity with Ga-68 PSMA-11 PET/CT were enrolled. After Tc-PSMA-I&S injection and SPECT/CT imaging, Tc-PSMA-RG-RALRP with DaVinci XI robotic platform and laparoscopic gamma probe were performed.
