Öğe Cerebrospinal Fluid and Serum Autoantıbodıes in Drug-Resistant Temporal Lobe Epilepsıes: Case Series(2023) Kabay, Sibel Canbaz; Tüzün, Erdem; Akdağ, Gönül; Çetiner, Mustafa; Ayas, Selahattin; Karaman, Handan Işın Özışık; Arıkan, Fatma AkkoyunWe aimed to investigate the presence of neuronal antibodies in serum and cerebrospinal fluid(CSF) analysis of patients with drug resistant temporal lobe epilepsy. We evaluated 8 patients who accepted lumbar puncture with a diagnosis of drug resistant temporal lobe epilepsy. Neuronal autoantibodies were found to be negative in both serum and CSF in all patients. We investigated neuronal antibodies and clinical features in cases who were followed up for drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy and suspected of autoimmune epilepsy. Although neuronal antibodies were not detected in CSF and serum examinations, this may be related to the early age of onset in our study group. Autoimmune epilepsy should be considered among the differantial diagnosis with a subacute clinic, unusually high seizure frequency, variety and variability of seizures, resistance to antiseizure medications(ASMs), presence of an autoimmune disease in the person or his/her family, history of cancer or viral prodroma, demonstration of CNS inflammation and detection of neural antibodies.Öğe Evaluation of clinical features and the factors related to nutrition in home care patients with pressure ulcer(2021) Çetiner, Mustafa; Ari, Selma Akkaya; Eşkut, Neslihan; Ocak, Özgül; Kabaya, Sibel Canbaz; Karaman, Handan Isin OzisikIntroduction: In this study, we aimed to determine the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with pressure ulcers who received home health care in Kutahya city and to investigate the relationship between the factors related to nutrition and pressure ulcer grades. Methods: This study is designed as a retrospective and cross-sectional. The files of 500 patients who were registered at home health services unit of Kutahya Health Sciences University Training and Research Hospital between December 2016 and May 2017 were reviewed retrospectively. Of these, sixty-three patients with pressure ulcers were included in the study. Results: In this study, 26 (41.3%) were male and 37 (58.7%) were female. The mean age of the patients with pressure ulcers was 74.41 ± 12.30 (years). 36 patients (57.1%) had cerebrovascular disease, 5 patients (7.9%) had dementia, 9 patients (14.3%) had malignancy, 8 patients (12.7%) had osteoarthritis, 4 patients 6.3%) had peripheral vascular disease, and 1 patient (1.6%) had previous traffic accident. The majority (62.1%) were neurological disease-sequenced and nursing-care group. When all the patients were examined, the region with the most pressure was the sacrum (35.3%). Hemoglobin level was found to be related to pressure ulcer grade (One-way ANOVA, p = 0.019). There was no significant relationship between other nutrition-related parameters and pressure ulcer stage. Conclusion: Patients with cerebrovascular disease constitute a significant proportion of patients receiving home care services. Low hemoglobin increases the severity of the pressure ulcer. Therefore, determining risk factors that contribute to pressure ulcer formation and efforts to prevent them should be the primary target of the home health care unit.
