The Effect of Long COVID-19 Infection and Vaccination on Male Fertility; A Narrative Review.

Earlier research has suggested that the male reproductive system could be particularly vulnerable to SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infection, and infections involving this novel disease not only pose serious health threats but could also cause male infertility. Data from multi-organ research during the recent outbreak indicate that male infertility might not be diagnosed as a possible consequence of COVID-19 infection. Several review papers have summarized the etiology factors on male fertility, but to date no review paper has been published defining the effect of COVID-19 infection on male fertility.

Investigation of the Genetic Etiology in Idiopathic Generalized Epileptic Disorders by Targeted Next-generation Sequencing Technique.

Background: Idiopathic generalized epilepsy is the most common group of epilepsy disorders in children and adolescents. Various types of genetic abnormality were identified among the hereditary factors that explain epilepsy.

Aims: To determine the variations in the etiopathogenesis, treatment protocol planning, and prognosis of idiopathic generalized epilepsy using the next-generation sequencing method.

Intramural Component of Venous, Lymphatic, and Perineural Invasion in Colon Cancer: A Threat or an Illusion?

Background: Extramural venous invasion is an independent predictor of poor outcome in colorectal cancer, whereas the significance of the intramural component of venous and lymphatic and perineural invasion is unclear.

Aims: To evaluate the prognostic impact of intramural components for venous, lymphatic, and perineural invasions and the relation of these invasion patterns with clinicopathological features in patients with colon cancer.

Study Design: A retrospective cross-sectional study.

Genotyping and Identification of Antigen B Gene Polymorphism of in Edirne, Thrace, and the First Report of Genotype G2 (Tasmanian Sheep Strain) in Turkey.

Background: is the causative agent of cystic echinococcosis in humans and livestock. It is common worldwide. Cystic echinococcosis is still an important public health problem in Turkey, which is an endemic region.

Follicular Growth Pattern Disease on Thyroid Fine-needle Aspiration Biopsy.

Thyroid nodules are a common worldwide health problem and a diagnostic challenge for clinicians and cytopathologists. Follicular growth pattern constitutes the majority of thyroid lesions. Thyroid nodules can be neoplastic or non-neoplastic, and neoplastic nodules can be classified as benign, malignant, or gray zone.

CD11c expression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia revisited, related with complications and survival.

Introduction: Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a disorder of mature but dysfunctional monoclonal B cells. Microenvironment, antigenic stimulation and genetical mutations are demonstrated in etiopathogenesis. We aimed to evaluate the expression of CD11c in patients with CLL and its possible clinical significance.

The management of gout in different clinical specialties in Turkey: a patient-based survey.

Although gout is potentially curable, the management of this disease is often suboptimal. In this study, we investigated the treatment of gout in Turkey and also compared the management approaches to gout in different clinical specialties. Three hundred and nineteen consecutive patients (mean age 58.
