Erratum: Factors predicting non-sentinel lymph node metastasis in T1-2 invasive breast cancer with 1-2 axillary sentinel lymph node metastases:Presentation of Ondokuz Mayis scoring system.

In this article published in Volume 21, issue 5, the Results section of the Pubmed abstract appeared as: "There were 68 (33%) and 108 (52%) patients with a the score of ? 4 (predicted probability of ?10%) with a false negative rate (FNR% of 4.4%, and ?5 (predicted probability of ?15%) with a FNR of 7.4%, respectively.

Factors predicting non-sentinel lymph node metastasis in T1-2 invasive breast cancer with 1-2 axillary sentinel lymph node metastases: Presentation of Ondokuz Mayis scoring system.

Purpose: To evaluate the predicting factors for non-sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastases in T1-2 invasive breast cancer with 1-2 metastatic SLN that fully matched the ACOSOG Z0011 criteria. Also, to develop a scoring system to predict the risk of non-SLN metastasis and to discriminate the low-risk patients for omission of the axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in this population.

Methods: Two hundred and seven T1-2 invasive breast cancer patients with 1-2 metastatic SLN who underwent ALND at our Institution were included in the study.

Anesthetic management of a pediatric patient with leigh syndrome.

Background And Objectives: Leigh syndrome (LS) is a rare disease caused by abnormalities of mitochondrial energy generation. The central nervous system is most frequently affected, with psychomotor underdevelopment, seizures, nystagmus, ophthalmoparesis, optic atrophy, ataxia, dystonia, or respiratory failure. Surgical and anesthetic procedures stimulate the tracheal irritability, and could exacerbate risks of aspiration, wheezing, breathing difficulties, gasping, hypoventilation, and apnea.

Comparison of single and double courses of antenatal corticosteroid administration on neonatal mortality and morbidity.

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the effects of single and double courses of antenatal corticosteroid administration on neonatal mortality and morbidity.

Materials And Methods: 232 preterm babies delivered between 01. April 2007 and 31.

Comparison of the effects of transdermal estrogen, oral estrogen, and oral estrogen-progestogen therapy on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women.

It is now clear that estrogen intervention reduces bone loss in postmenopausal osteoporosis. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the route of estrogen administration or addition of progesterone changes this positive effect. Transdermal estrogen (T-E), oral estrogen (E), and oral estrogen plus progestogen (E-P) were administered to 15, 18, and 17 postmenopausal women, respectively, who all had normal bone mineral density (BMD) before hormone replacement therapy (HRT).
