Öğe A Bibliometric Analysis on Dicrocoelium dendriticum(Iranian Scientific Society Medical Entomology, 2023) Kılıç Altun, Serap; Barlık, Fethi; Aydemir, Mehmet Emin; Alkan, SevilBackground: Dicrocoelium dendriticum, a worldwide zoonotic trematode, is a common parasite of ruminant animals, but humans can be the definitive host by chance. We analyzed the world situation of the parasite from the perspective of the One Health concept by analyzing the research literature published from 1931 to 2022. Methods: Published documents related to D. dendriticum were searched from the Scopus database. Focusing on a visual analysis of the main research documents on D. dendriticum, Dimensions free web app was used to conduct co-occurrence analysis with keywords, countries, institutions, and authors. Moreover, key clustering research, affiliaitons, journals, countries, and authors were determined. Results: The Higher Council for Scientific Research (CSIC) was the most publishing affiliation on D. dendriticum with 19 articles. While the Veterinary Parasitology Journal was the mostly publishing journal on D. dendriticum with 38 articles, the most productive country was Iran. The authors Giuseppe Cringoli and Laura Rinaldi from Università degli Studi di Napoli Federico II, Naples, Italy were the mostly publishing authors. Conclusion: This bibliometric analysis provides an overall description of the current state of D. dendriticum research and the initial exploration of future research directions. Our analysis provides guidance for the development of research on D. dendriticum.Öğe A Bibliometric Analysis Study of Global Academic Articles on Malaria and Contribution of Türkiye(Ordu University, 2024) Aydemir, Selahattin; Diril, Halit; Alkan, Sevil; Barlık, Fethi; Ekici, AbdurrahmanObjective: Malaria is a parasitic infection that has a significant negative influence on public health around the world, including Türkiye in recent years with the prevalence of imported cases. This study was conducted to provide a bibliometric analysis of publications on malaria in Türkiye and worldwide, and to determine Türkiye's current position in malaria research. Methods: This study was observational, descriptive, and retrospective designed study and utilized scientometric technique and scientific mapping. The research was conducted in the Web of Science online database. The MESH keywords (malaria OR plasmodium) were used. The title (TI) field and only Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-E) index was used for the search queries. The following inclusion and exclusion criteria were applied: The studies published after the end of 2022 were excluded and only the articles were chosen according to the document type. Results: On the basis of the defined search, 31376 articles were extracted from the WoS database indexed in the SCI-E category, for the period 1970-2022. The earliest article was published in 1970 and the most of the articles were published in 2021 (n=1274). There was a growth in publications number since end of the 1970s. A total 469 countries contributed the malaria literature. The United States of America (USA) (32.07%), England (18.56%) and France (9.90%) were the leading countries on the malaria literature according to the published article numbers. Türkiye ranked in 71st. A total of 80 articles were retrieved according to search criteria. The articles were cited 1347 times totally and 17.75 times per article. The mean of H index was 18. The earliest articles were published in 1987. The number of articles limited but since 2005 never dropped below two articles per year. Conclusion: Scientific production from Türkiye is low. This topic can be improved by increasing both the financial support for and the involvement of researchers in national and international collaborative research projects.Öğe A Bibliometric Analysis Study on Bone Marrow Transplantation Research Originating from Turkey(Duzce University, 2023) Özlü, Can; Alkan, SevilAim: Scientific publications serve as indicators of global interest and activity in research.

Turkey continues to lag behind other countries in this field despite an increase in research activity pertaining to bone marrow transplants in recent years.Öğe A Bibliometric and Trend Analysis on Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis(2025) Şahinoğlu, Mustafa Serhat; Alkan, Sevil; Kaya, HamideBackground: In this study, bibliometric methods were used to investigate research trends on Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis (PAM). Methods: Data from 1970 to 2021 were acquired from the Web of Science database. The inclusion condition was developed as follows: \"Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis,\" TS (Topic). The research trend was explored by examining the distribution of nations, journals, authors, funding organizations, author keywords, affiliations, authorship patterns, and co-authorship relationships. Results: Out of a total of 339 documents retrieved, 244 (71.976%) were journal articles. The highest number of publications (7.377%) were made in 2021. Over the past 20 years, there has been a gradual increase in the number of publications in PAM research and 47.54 (%) of the articles were published since 2010. The articles were from 34 different research fields, mainly in Microbiology (27.869%), Parasitology (20.902%), and Infectious Diseases (13.115%). Articles on PAM have been published from 39 countries on 5 continents. The number of articles is only a few hundred, mainly from the United States, Australia, Europe, and some Asian countries over the past fifty years. The only country with more than 100 (n=117) articles in PAM research was the United States of America (USA). The articles that were published in the USA had 5240 total citations (21.48 per article), and their average H index was 37. Conclusion: The number of published articles on PAM is limited in countries other than the USA. Increasing the number of articles published on PAM by countries other than the USA would contribute to the literature.Öğe A Bibliometric Study on Buruli Ulcer Based on the Web of Science Database(Sage Publications Inc, 2023) Alkan, Sevil; Sahinoglu, Mustafa SerhatBuruli ulcer is caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans, a skin infection that occurs mostly in people living in the developing economies of Africa and is considered a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization (WHO). Left untreated, it can lead to chronic wounds and loss of limbs. This disease is one of the target diseases of the WHO, and there are very limited bibliometric studies published on this subject. Also, no similar study using the Web of Science Core Collection was found in the available literature. The aim of this study was to evaluate the bibliometric analysis of the literature on Buruli ulcers. For data visualization and analysis, the open-source visualization program Biblioshiny (version 2.0) was used. Although most publications are from Ghana, the United States, and European countries have also made significant contributions. The number of publications has increased especially since 2016. The most preferred keywords in the publications were treatment, diagnosis, and transmission routes. This is the first bibliometric analysis that examines the trend of scientific publications on Buruli ulcer that have been indexed in the Web of Science. Our findings have the potential to be used by academics to improve their research.Öğe A Bibliometric Study on Charcot Foot Deformity(SAGE Publications Inc., 2023) Üzümcügil, Alaaddin Oktar; Alkan, Sevil; Kurt, MehmetIn this study, we investigated the literature's publication trends related to the Charcot foot deformity. Using bibliometric analysis to examine the data of origin, this analysis was carried out by conducting an electronic search of the Web of Science database for research articles between 1970 and March 2023. We used the following search term in the search bar: TI = (Charcot foot OR Charcot foot deformity OR Charcot's foot OR Charcot Osteopathic Arthropathy) with English language and article-format filtering for documents. The bibliometric analysis was carried out using R's “Bibliometrix” package program. A total of 437 articles were found in the electronic search. A total number of 1513 authors from around the world contributed to the Charcot foot literature, with the most articles published (42.1%) originating in the United States. The United States had the highest proportion of citations (3332 citations). The highest number of articles (n = 245) on Charcot foot deformity was in the last decade. 2021 was the year with the most articles (n = 34). The authors from the United States and the United Kingdom had the highest number of international collaborations. The study offers researchers a current overview of essential data and may help direct future research by summarizing the main points and research trends on the topic of Charcot foot deformity.Öğe A case of acalculous cholecystitis or Brucella-induced acute cholecystitis?(Hatay Mustafa Kemal University, 2023) Ürkmez, Fatma Yekta; Şahinoğlu, Serhat; Alkan, SevilBrucella spp. is a microorganism that can cause febrile, systemic infection, especially in endemic areas. Although it causes a multisystemic involvement and creates various clinical symptoms, osteoarticular symptoms are the most common. However, Brucella spp. is known to be a great mimic and can cause rare, atypical presentations. In this case report, we aimed to present a 67-year-old Turkish female patient diagnosed with stony cholecystitis due to Brucella spp. Although rare, brucellosis can be encountered as a cause of acute cholecyst. Although there are changes in the epidemiology of brucellosis, it is useful to keep in mind brucellosis in the differential diagnosis of many diseases, in endemic areas, especially in rural areas.Öğe A case of acute brucellosis associated with HIV infection in Turkey(Termedia Publishing House Ltd, 2024) Ürkmez, Fatma Yekta; Alkan, SevilHuman brucellosis is a common public health problem in Turkey. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients are vulnerable to co-infections and super-infections due to targeting the immune system. Because opportunistic infections are considered primarily, it is very difficult to detect co-infections, especially Brucella spp., in this patient group. In addition, non-specific clinical findings of brucellosis make diagnosis difficult. In this report, an HIV-positive patient with acute brucellosis was described. A 28-year-old male patient receiving antiretroviral therapy was admitted to the hospital with complaints of high fever and myalgia for the last two weeks. Physical examination revealed enlargement of bilateral cervical lymph nodes and enlargement of bilateral inguinal lymph nodes. Primarily, opportunistic infections were investigated in this patient. Brucella spp. was detected in blood cultures taken due to high fever. Subsequently, the patient was diagnosed with brucellosis. We presented this case report with the purpose of drawing more attention to the clinical diagnosis of brucellosis. In addition, we recommend that clinicians should be more cautious about fever of unknown origin in HIV-positive patients, especially in regions where brucellosis is endemic. In the presence of newly developing fever and lymphadenopathy in HIV-infected individuals, opportunistic infections as well as other infectious diseases, including brucellosis, should be considered.Öğe A Case of Brucellosis Presenting with Infarction in the Spleen(Doc Design Informatics Co Ltd, 2022) Alkan, Sevil; Guclu-Kayta, Safiye Bilge; Vurucu, Servan; Akca, Anil; Yuksel, Cihan; Onder, Taylan; Sener, AlperBrucellosis may present with different clinical pictures due to its ability to involve various organs. Although splenomeg-aly can be seen as a result of spleen involvement in brucellosis, splenic infarction is rare. However, left upper quadrant pain may be observed when splenic infarct occurs. This case report presents a case of brucellosis with splenic infarct.Öğe A case of new-onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) due to Herpes Simplex Virus-1 encephalitis(Acil Tıp Uzmanları Derneği, 2022) Alkan, Sevil; Önder, Taylan; Akça, Anıl; Şener, AlperIn the medical literature, the term of "new-onset refractory status epilepticus" (NORSE) is a novel term. Herpes Simplex Virus-1 and other viral infections can be cause to NORSE. Seizures are a rare sign of HSV encephalitis, but they can occur as the first symptom. Herein, we present a case of NORSE triggered by HSV-1 encephalitis, which had been diagnosed via cerebrospinal fluid polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and magnetic resonance imaging findings.Öğe A Fatal Case of Culture-Negative Late Prosthetic Mitral Valve Endocarditis(Emergency Medicine Physicians Assoc Turkey, 2022) Kucuk, Ugur; Alkan, Sevil; Barutcu, AhmetProsthesis valve dehiscence is one of the most serious complications of prosthetic valves. Despite the improvements in medical and surgical treatments, prosthesis valve dehiscence has high mortality. Due to fatality rates, the early diagnosis and treatment of these patients is required. In this case report, we presented a patient with severe mitral deficiency and acute heart failure following mechanical mitral prosthesis valve dehiscence secondary to culture-negative endocarditis.Öğe A global bibliometric analysis of Salmonella Typhi over the past 52 years (1970-2022)(J Infection Developing Countries, 2025) Altun, Serap Kilic; Aydemir, Mehmet Emin; Alkan, SevilIntroduction: Salmonella Typhi (S. Typhi), a bacterial human-restricted pathogen, is an essential systemic health problem of global importance in humans and animals. This study aimed to determine the overall scientific impact of Salmonella Typhi (S. Typhi) research using bibliometric methods. Methodology: In this research, a bibliometric analysis was performed on S. Typhi using the Web of Science (WoS) database and the Bibliometrix R package. A total of 1,966 articles, published between 1970-2022, were analyzed. Results: This bibliometric analysis showed that the most productive years in the process were 2012 and 2022. This analysis also showed that Infection and Immunity Journal was the leading journal with a total of 1,332 articles in publications related to S. Typhi research, with the USA being the most productive country in S. Typhi publications, as well as having the highest co-authorship collaboration. The University System of Maryland ranked first with 110 records when affiliations were analyzed. The United States Department of Health and Human Services was at the top of the Funding Agencies analysis. Analysis of the most cited authors revealed that Parry CM was the first most cited author (n = 90) of S. Typhi publications. Conclusions: This bibliometric analysis showed that the countries with high economic income were dominant in the studies of published articles, affiliations, and funding agencies on S. Typhi. Collaboration of researchers from countries with low or middle incomes with S. Typhi epidemics and researchers from countries with high economic income will make the fight against these bacteria more effective.Öğe A Novel Approach for Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation; Effects of Melatonin Loaded PLGA Nanofibers in Rats(Galenos Publ House, 2025) Aykora, Damla; Sahin, Serpil; Aydeger, Cemre; Yulek, Ozden; Alkan, Sevil; Oral, Ayhan; Jajere, Muhammad UmarAim: Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is a cannulation method that is accessed by a peripheric vein and an artery. AVF provides vascular access for chronic kidney disease patients so they can receive hemodialysis. AVF could be created by surgical intervention and facilitates arterial to venous circulation for rapid recovery. However, AVF maturation depends on venous proliferation and luminal diameter which allows the optimum flow rate for continuing circiulation and hemodialysis. Due to multiple unexpected conditions, non-maturation of AVFs limits the efficacy of the hemodialysis so patients must receive another surgery for AVF cannulation. Materials and Methods: In this study, we aimed to utilize the effects of melatonin (MT), which is known to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic effects, to provide longer and more effective use of AVFs via a novel technique. For this purpose, firstly by electrospinning method, polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) nanofiber membranes were developed. After MT is loaded into the PLGA and characterized. Biodegradation and drug release profiles were analyzed. An in vivo study was performed in Wistar Albino male rats (n=18). Rats were randomly divided into three experimental groups; Sham, PLGA, and MT/PLGA respectively (n=6). AVF model was established in all groups between arteria carotica and vena jugularis under general anesthesia. The Sham group did not receive any treatment or biomaterial application. The developed membranes were placed onto the AVFs in PLGA and MT/PLGA groups. All rats were sacrificed on the 28th of the experiment. The anastomosis sites of all animals were harvested for histopathological analysis. Results: Our results showed MT/PLGA group indicated increased maturation levels conmpared to Sham group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The results showed that PLGA/MEL may be a promising material for early AVF maturation.Öğe A scientometric analysis and visualization of Pott's disease; 2000-2021(MediHealth Academy Yayıncılık, 2023) Yılmaz, Selçuk; Alkan, Sevil; Öner, Süleyman Kaan; Demirkıran, Nihat Demirhan; Kuyubaşı, Numan; Arslan, CengizAims: Spinal tuberculosis, or Pott's disease, is a bacterial infection of the spine, which is primarily brought on by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
