Medicine - Abstract
To determine the prevalence of pre and post prostatectomy related urinary tract in-fection and its correlation with peri-operative events, we studied 120 patients who underwent pros-tatectomy due to benign prostatic hypertrophy from September 2005 to September 2006. Urine cultures were performed before the operations, after a week, and three months later. Data including prostate volume, prostatic specific antigen (PSA), post voiding residue (PVR) and histopathological reports as well as the duration of urinary leak, bladder irrigation, hospitalization, and catheterization were studied. The mean age of the studied patients was 70.5 ± 8 years. Significant preoperative bac-teriuria was revealed in 18 (15%) patients of whom 14(77%) patients developed negative cultures following the operation. Postoperative bacteriuria was detected in 9(7.5%) patients who negative urine cultures preoperatively. Pre and post operative micro-organisms were different in the majority of the cases. The mean PSA was higher in patients with a positive history of infection. Following prostatectomy, patients with positive urine cultures had significantly longer urinary leakage, cathe-terization, and hospital stays compared with those who remained culture negative. We conclude that the incidence of positive urine culture pri-prostatectomy for BPH can be improved by appropriate antibiotic therapy, and the risk factors for postoperative urinary infection include preoperative infec-tion, prolonged urinary leakage, catheterization, and hospital stay. The elevated PSA may be a risk factor.

TYPE 2 diabetes ,GLYCOSYLATED hemoglobin ,BLOOD proteins ,GLOMERULAR filtration rate ,ENZYME-linked immunosorbent assay - Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate an association between serum growth arrest-specific 6 (Gas6), AXL, and soluble AXL (sAXL) levels and the glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in diabetic patients. Materials and Methods: This study included type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients of a department of endocrinology and healthy individuals. The HbA1c and creatinine levels of all of the participants were evaluated using autoanalyzers and the eGFR was calculated according to the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration formula. The Gas6, AXL, and sAXL serum protein concentrations were analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Results: The study group consisted of 51 patients (34 females and 17 males) diagnosed with T2DM and 17 healthy controls (9 females and 8 males). The Gas6, AXL, and sAXL concentrations were significantly lower in the patient group (p<0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the Gas6, AXL, and sAXL parameters in both groups. The eGFR was negatively correlated with the Gas6 and sAXL levels in the patient group (r=-0.285, p<0.047; r=-0.311, p<0.028, respectively), while there was no correlation observed in the control group. Conclusion: Gas6, AXL, and sAXL have an important role in the pathogenesis of T2DM. Gas6 and sAXL appear to have a potentially predictive value for diabetic nephropathy. Further clinical studies are necessary to clarify this mechanism. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The best management of incidental prostate cancer (iPCa) has been debated. The decision “treatment or no treatment” should be determined by predictors which accurately foretell PCa progression after transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP). The purpose of this study is to review the available data that can be useful in daily clinical judgment. Transrectal ultrasound prostate biopsy (TRUSBx) did not provide further Gleason score (GS) data in most patients diagnosed with iPCa. TRUSBX may be useful before active surveillance, but not in all following radical prostatectomy. The decision “treatment or no treatment” should be dependent on the expected chance of having residual cancer and clinical progression. Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels before and after TURP are good predictors of residual cancer after TURP. Pathological report of T0 is most likely seen in patients with low PSA density after TURP and indistinguishable lesion on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging.The decision “treatment vs no treatment” is judged by life expectancy, tumor characteristic in the pathology report of TURP sample and PSA level following TURP. Active surveillance should be contemplated in patients with iPCa who have both prostate-specific antigen density ≤ 0.08 after TURP and indistinguishable cancer lesion on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging. Patients who do not meet the criteria for active surveillance are candidates for radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy (RT). Radical prostatectomy could be peacefully done after TURP with somewhat greater morbidity. RT in patients who had a history of TURP could be safely done and is associated with acceptable quality of life.Keywords: incidental prostate cancer, prostate cancer, transurethral resection of the prostate, TURP

Amaç: Yüksek trigliserid (TG) düzeyleri artmış aterosklerotik kardiyovasküler hastalık (KVH), pankreatit ve hepatik seteatoz gibi pekçok durum ile ilişkilidir. Hipertrigliseridemi (HTG) tanılı olguların çoğu sekonder nedenlere bağlıdır. Amacımız primer HTG'li olguların farklı iki coğrafi bölgedeki sıklıklarını taramak, bu monogenik formların mutasyonlarını ortaya koymak ve doğru tedavi düzenlenmesine yardımcı olmaktır.Yöntem: İki merkezli çalışmamızda Erciyes Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi ve Ege Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hastanesi endokrinoloji polikniklerine başvuran, dislipidemili tanılı olgular arasında TG düzeyi 500 mg/dL ve üzerinde olan, pankreatit anamnezi veren veya vermeyen, sekonder nedenlerin dışlandığı primer HTG düşünülen vakalar retrospektif olarak incelendi. LPL, APO C2, APO E, APO A5, LCAT, GPHIBP1 mutasyonları değerlendirildi. 60 olguda özel laboratuvarda hizmet alımı şeklinde ANGPTL3 ve LMF1 mutasyonları çalışıldı. İki merkezin retrospektif ve prospektif sonuçları birleştirildi. Toplam 98 olgu çalışmaya dahil edildi. Mutasyonlar yeni nesil dizi analizi yöntemiyle çalışıldı.Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan 98 hastanın 48'inde (%49.0) mutasyon saptandı. LPL mutasyonu 31 (%31.6) olguda, apo A5 mutasyonu 6 (%6.1) olguda, apo C2 mutasyonu 4 (%4.1) olguda, LMF1 mutasyonu 3 (%3.1) olguda, apo E mutasyonu 2 (%2.0) olguda, LCAT mutasyonu 1 (%1.0) olguda ve ANGPTL3 mutasyonu 1 (%1.0) olguda tespit edildi. Pankreatit geçiren grupta apo A5, LPL pozitiflik oranı pankreatit olmayan gruptan anlamlı (p ˂0.05) olarak daha yüksekti. Pankreatit geçiren ve geçirmeyen hastaların ayrımında TG değeri 1450 mg/dL kesim değerinin anlamlı [eğri altı alan 0.735 (0.633-0.836)] etkinliği gözlenmiştir.Sonuç: KVH'ların primer önlenmesi için HTG'ye yaklaşım önemli bir kriterdir. Sekonder nedenler dışlandıktan sonra primer HTG ve mutasyonlarının değerlendirilmesi tedavi planı düzenlenmesinde yol gösterici olacaktır.Anahtar Kelimeler: Primer hipertrigliseridemi, Kardiyovasküler hastalık, Pankreatit, Mutasyon Aim: High triglyceride (TG) levels are associated with increased atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD), pancreatitis risk and many other conditions like hepatic steatosis. Most cases with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) are due to secondary causes. Our goal is to screen the frequency of primary HTG cases in two different geographic regions, to reveal mutations of these monogenic forms.Method: In our two-center study, patients with primary hypertriglyceridemia who presented to the endocrinology outpatient clinics of Erciyes University Medical Faculty Hospital and Ege University Medical Faculty Hospital with triglyceride levels of 500 mg/dL and above were evaluated retrospectively. LPL, APO C2, APO E, APO A5, LCAT, GPHIBP1 mutations were examined. In 60 cases, ANGPTL3 and LMF1 mutations were studied in private laboratory. The retrospective and prospective results of the two centers were combined. A total of 98 cases were included in the study. Mutations were studied with the new generation sequence analysis method.Results: Mutations were detected in 48 (49.0%) of 98 patients enrolled in the study. LPL mutation in 31 (31.6%) cases, APO A5 mutation in 6 (6.1%) cases, APO C2 mutation in 4 (4.1%) cases, LMF1 mutation in 3 (3.1%) cases, APO E mutation in 2 (2.0%) cases, LCAT mutation in 1 (1.0%) case and ANGPTL3 mutation in 1 (1.0%) case was detected. In the group who had pancreatitis, the APO A5, LPL mutation positivity rate was significantly higher (p ˂ 0.05) than the non-pancreatitis group. Significant efficacy of TG cut off value of 1450 mg/dL [area under the curve 0.735 (0.633-0.836)] was observed in the distinction between patients with or without pancreatitis.Conclusion: Approach to hypertriglyceridemia is an important criterion in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Evaluation of mutations in primary hypertriglyceridemia after excluding secondary causes will be a guide in the future treatment plan.Keywords: Primary hypertriglyceridemia, Cardiovascular disease, Pancreatitis, Mutation 92

Purpose: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is one of the most common problems in elderly men. Transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) can be performed for most patients who need re-do prostate surgery, but open prostatectomy should be considered in patients with prostate size larger than 70 grams. This study assessed the feasibility of open prostatectomy (OP) after previous TURP in patients whose prostate size was larger than 70 grams.Materials and Methods: We subdivided patients into two groups: group 1 included patients who had a history of prostate surgery presented with severe voiding symptoms and a large prostate (>70 gram). Patients who were candidate for open simple prostatectomy without a history of prostate surgery were allocated to group 2.Results: Between June 2007 and April 2018, 2700 patients underwent TURP or open prostatectomy in our department. 152 of 2700 patients came to us because of severe voiding symptoms after previous prostate surgery, but only 30 patients met the criteria to be enrolled in this study. Perioperative complication (capsular perforation) occurred in 4 (13.3%) patients in group 1 whereas none of the patients in the group 2 had capsular perforation. Hemoglobin drop in group 1 was not significantly different from patients in group 2. The rate of blood transfusion did not differ between the groups (2 [6.6%] patients in group 1 and 41 (5.6%) patients in group 2). After 6-12 months, re-operation rate because of urethral/bladder neck stricture was done in 10 (30%) patients in group 1 and 15 (2%) patients in group 2 (p < 0.05). Four (13.3%) patients in group 1 complained of urinary leakage (more than one pad per day) 6 months after the operation whereas 5 patients in group 2 used more than one pad per day (0.7%) (p > 0.05). Hospital stay was slightly longer in patients in group 1. Six months after the operation, the patients' quality of life was better in group 2 compared with group 1 (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Open simple prostatectomy was a feasible procedure in patients with large prostate after previous TURP, but it was associated with more complications in the long term.

Background: Obesity is the main obstacle for metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Turkey has the highest prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes in Europe. The effect of obesity on the metabolic control, and the macro-and microvascular complications of patients are not apparent. Objectives: This nationwide survey aimed to investigate the prevalence of overweight and obesity among patients with type 2 diabetes and to search for the impact of obesity on the metabolic control of these patients. We also investigated the independent associates of obesity in patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: We consecutively enrolled patients who were under follow-up for at least 1 year in 69 tertiary healthcare units in 37 cities. The demographic, anthropometric, and clinical data including medications were recorded. Patients were excluded if they were pregnant, younger than 18 years, had decompensated liver disease, psychiatric disorders interfering with cognition or compliance, had bariatric surgery, or were undergoing renal replacement therapy. Results: Only 10% of patients with type 2 diabetes (n = 4,648) had normal body mass indexes (BMI), while the others were affected by overweight (31%) or obesity (59%). Women had a significantly higher prevalence of obesity (53.4 vs. 40%) and severe obesity (16.6 vs. 3.3%). Significant associations were present between high BMI levels and lower education levels, intake of insulin, antihypertensives and statins, poor metabolic control, or the presence of microvascular complications. Age, gender, level of education, smoking, and physical inactivity were the independent associates of obesity in patients with type 2 diabetes. Conclusion: The TEMD Obesity Study shows that obesity is a major determinant of the poor metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. These results underline the importance of prevention and management of obesity to improve health care in patients with type 2 diabetes. Also, the results point out the independent sociodemographic and clinical associates of obesity, which should be the prior targets to overcome, in the national fight with obesity.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the pre- and postoperative effects of pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) and the biofeedback method on the management of urinary incontinence (UI) in patients who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP). Material and Methods: Fifty-seven patients were enrolled in this study from September 2019 to July 2020. They were randomly divided into three groups each of 19 patients: two case groups (biofeedback before and after RP) and a control group. All patients underwent RP, followed by PFMT and 24-hour pad use instructions after the postoperative removal of the Foley catheter. Then, the rate of patient-reported pads/day usage was recorded and compared among the three groups at the end of the 1st, 3rd, and 6th months of catheter removal. Results: Compared with the control group (only 15%), 63 and 52% of the patients who used pre- or postoperative treatment interventions, respectively, regained urinary continence during the first postoperative period, showing significant downward rates of pads/day use (P = .01 and .001, respectively). However, the results were not significant between the two case groups. Conclusion: Our study revealed that applying the biofeedback method for pelvic floor muscles could be an efficient interventional approach in patients with UI, leading to the earlier regaining of continence following RP.

Purpose: Gleason score (GS), as well as other prognostic and diagnostic modalities, can predict the possibility of tumor growth and metastasis during the life of patients with prostate cancer. Based on the prostate biopsy GS, clinicians choose the most appropriate therapy for managing patients. The objective of this cross-sectional study was to determine the discrepancy between needle biopsy and radical prostatectomy GS and to identify its predictive factors among the Iranian population.Materials and Methods: A total of 1147 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy from 2009 to 2019 were initially enrolled in this study. After consideration of the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 439 patients were finally included. The demographic variables and clinical data including age, PSA level, prostate volume, PSA density, GS derived from ultrasonography-guided core needle biopsy specimen, and GS derived from radical prostatectomy specimen were collected from the medical records of patients with prostate adenocarcinoma and were reviewed by a urology resident. Statistical analysis was done by using the Social Sciences Software version 21.Results: The average age of patients was 64.5 years (range 48-84 years), and the average preoperative PSA level was 14.8 ng/mL. On histopathological examination, no changes in GS were observed in 237 (53.9%) patients, whereas GS was upgraded in 144 (32.8%) patients and downgraded in 58 (13.2%) patients at radical prostatectomy. The number of patients who had extracapsular extension, seminal vesicle invasion and positive lymph nodes was significantly higher in the upgraded group compared with the non-upgraded group. Conclusion: In this study, there was a steady decrease in GS upgrading with the prostate size extending up to 49.7 g. There was also an association between downgrading and extending prostate size. Due to the greater risk of high-grade disease in men with small prostates, smaller prostate bulks are most probably upgraded after radical prostatectomy. A higher maximum percentage of involvement per core was an independent predictive factor of upgrading from biopsy grade 1 to grade ≥ 2. Our study showed that patients' age was not predictive of upgrading, which is consistent with other studies. Also, we demonstrated a non-significant relationship between PSA level and upgraded GS. Findings in this study did not demonstrate a significant relationship between PSA level and upgrading. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Purpose: Surgical repair of post-traumatic complex urethral stricture poses a major challenge to urologists. Here, we report six patients with irreparable urethral strictures who were successfully treated by using the appendix as conduit for urinary diversion.Materials and Methods: Six patients who had underwent urinary diversion using an appendix during 2015 to 2019 were included in our study. All patients had a history of one or more failed attempts of urethral reconstruction in the past. Mean follow-up for patients was 29 months. Continency was defined as being completely dry for at least 3 hours.Results: Mean age of patients was 40.1 years old (range: 20-70 years). Intermittent catheterization through the conduit was easily performed for every patient without any stomal stenosis. Mild stomal incontinence only occurred in one case which was resolved after a few months. All patients were continent during day and night.Conclusion: Based on the results of our study, Mitrofanoff's technique is a valuable procedure for managing patients with serious complicated urethral strictures who cannot be treated with common standard approaches.

This study develops a mathematical model of buried pipelines subjected to surface blast loading based on the theory of beam on elastic foundation. The Fourier transform, a mathematical formula that converts the time domain of the problem to the frequency domain, was used in order to solve a fourth-order non-homogeneous partial differential equation. Transforming the solution back to the time domain, the blast-induced Peak Particle Velocity (PPV) of the pipeline can be calculated. In addition to the mathematical model, a three-dimensional finite element model has been established, thereby drawing a comparison between analytical and numerical results. It can be concluded that the analytically calculated PPV values are found to be higher than the corresponding numerical values. Lastly, the safe distance from the pipeline to blast source and the maximum allowable ANFO explosive weight for two types of rock have been presented in the form of graphs by imposing a limit of 50 mm/s for PPV. This comparative study has investigated the effect of road-cut excavation blasting on pipelines buried under only two types of rock mass. However, it can be used for different types of rock and explosives, mainly thanks to the comprehensiveness of the analytical solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The use of intravesical botulinum toxin-A (BTX-A) for the management of overactive bladder is rapidly increasing. In this research, we assess the efficacy of BTX-A vs solifenacin in men suffering from bladder outlet obstruction–over active bladder (BOO-OAB) managed with TURP. Methods: In this case–control study, 50 men with BOO-OAB randomized into two groups. The control group (A) underwent TURP and subsequently managed by solifenacin 5 mg daily, and the case group (B) underwent TURP and BTX-A injection in the bladder wall in the same session. Treatment success was the primary outcome and defined as post-injection improvement in the storage score of the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) from baseline. Results: The IPSS, post-void residual volume, frequency, incomplete emptying, nocturia and urgency subscores considerably ameliorated after 12 weeks and 36 weeks for both groups, but it was more significant in the case arm. The quality of life (QoL) scores significantly improved after the treatments in both groups. Intervention group showed significant reductions regarding urgency incontinence compared with the solifenacin group at 12th and 36th weeks. Conclusion: BTX-A is an effective and well-tolerated treatment in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who are candidates of TURP and simultaneously suffer from OAB symptoms.

Objective: Prostate cancer is one of the common malignant tumors in men worldwide. Nowadays it seems that Gleason Score 3+3 may not need definite treatment and some of the experts even ignore it as a cancer but we should be aware that in some patients with Gleason Score 3+3 there is a higher risk for harboring higher-grade cancer. We had done this study to evaluate patients with prostate cancer with Gleason Score 3+3 to determine the value of tumor volume in these cases. Material and methods: From September 2010 to October 2017, radical prostatectomy was done for 123 sequential patients with localized prostate cancer in two referral centers of Shahid Beheshti Medical University, Tehran, Iran, and 42 cases with Gleason Scores 3+3 which who were candidates for active surveillance were included in the study. Results: Thirty of 42 (71.4%) patients had significant tumor volumes (≥0/5 cm³). When tumor volume was less than 0.5 cm³, none of the patients had extra prostatic tumor extension. In patients with tumor volume greater than 0.5 cm³, two cases (6.6%) had extra prostatic extension, 4 cases (13.3%) had positive margins, four cases (13.3%) reactive lymph nodes and 16 cases (53.3%) perineural invasion. Conclusion: We suggest that some patients with Gleason Score 3+3 have tumor volume >0.5 cm³ who are considered having significant cancer pathology and active surveillance may not be appropriate approach to manage all cases with Gleason Score 3+3.

PROSTATECTOMY ,PROSTATE cancer treatment ,PROSTATE-specific antigen - Abstract
Objective: Incidental prostate cancer (IPCa) is defined as a symptom-free cancer unexpectedly discovered upon microscopic examination of resected tissue. The aim of this study was to report the correlation between some specific clinical criteria in patients incidentally diagnosed with prostate cancer (PCa) during transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or open prostatectomy (OP) after clinically suspected benign prostatic hyperplasia. Patients and methods: This was a cross-sectional, retrospective study. Data were collected from Shohada-e-Tajrish Hospital database during November 2006 to October 2016. Four hundred and twenty three men suffering from symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia who underwent either TURP or OP that provided a prostate specimen were evaluated. The data analysis was performed using Pearson correlation test and independent t-test using SPSS version 20 software. Results: The mean age of subjects was 68.74±9.87 years old (45-93 years). The mean prostate specific antigen (PSA) level was 21.47±13.44 ng/mL (0.6-47.1 ng/mL). Results showed that 84 patients (19.9%) had PCa (40 patients who underwent TURP [12.6%] and 44 patients who underwent OP [40.7%] groups). Cut-off point of PSA for detecting IPCa was 3.8 ng/mL in our study, and this showed sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and positive predictive value of 26.08%, 100%, 100%, and 29.79%, respectively. Twenty two patients with cancer had a positive family history for PCa; thus, a significant relationship between familial history of PCa and its occurrence was shown (p=0.0001). Conclusion: According to the results of this study, the cut-off point for PSA levels in detecting PCa was 3.8 ng/mL, which is similar to that reported by other studies. Familial history of PCa and PSA levels were two predictors in determining the PCa. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autosomal recessive hereditary disease characterized by recurrent attacks of fever, usually accompanied by sterile polyserositis. Although colchicine is the main medical treatment option for FMF, potential adverse effects and drug interactions should be considered during the follow-up of these patients. Herein, we presented a case of a hemodialysis patient with FMF, who developed rhabdomyolysis due to concomitant use of colchicine and clarithromycin for pneumonia treatment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
