Abstract

Aim: To evaluate the susceptibility of the serotonin transporter-associated polymorphic region (5-HTTLPR) and complement factor H (CFH) gene variants to smoking status. Method: Smokers and non-smokers were included in the study. The smoking amount was assessed based on the scores on the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND). DNA is extracted from blood samples. 5-HTTLPR and CFH Y402H variants were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and/or restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) methods. The results were evaluated statistically. Results: 5-HTTLPR and CFH Y402H genotype and allele distribution did not differ significantly between smokers and non-smokers (p>0.05). There was no deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) for these variants in the groups. Conclusion: Nicotine addiction is a complex phenomenon in which both genetic and environmental factors play a role. The identification of genes that play a role in addiction is important to elucidate the pathogenesis. The results of this study showed that 5-HTTLPR and CFH Y402H variants had no effect on nicotine addiction. However, these results need to be validated in larger sample groups and in different ethnic communities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

It is important to identify cases of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) who are at risk for tuberculosis (TB) reactivation. We aimed to evaluate the performance of interferon (IFN)-gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) as a marker to detect LTBI in patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases (IRD). This study comprised 76 consecutive subjects with IRD. Patients with a history of TB or having active TB were excluded. In all patients, IP-10 level was measured and tuberculin skin test (TST) and QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube test (QFT-GIT) were performed. Seventy patients with complete test results were analyzed. Twenty-one (30%) QFT-GIT-positive patients were defined as having LTBI. IP-10 yielded 2197 pg/mL cut-off point. At this cut-off point, IP-10 showed 89% specificity with a sensitivity of 91% (AUC: 0.950, 95% CI 0.906-0.994). TST, QFT-GIT, and IP-10 were positive in 77.1%, 30%, and 44.3% of the patients, respectively. Concordance among the results of TST, QFT-GIT, and IP-10 tests was evaluated. Agreement was poor between IP-10 and TST (58.6%, k = 0.19), whereas it was good between QFT-GIT and IP-10 (84.3%, k = 0.65). The results of the present study demonstrated that sensitivity and specificity of released IP-10 were as high as those of QFT-GIT in indicating LTBI in IRD patient group., NA

Abstract

Tobacco addiction, which causes the death of more than 8.5 million people in the world every year, is a preventable global public health problem. There are 1.1 billion adult smokers worldwide and 60% of them desire or intend to quit but unfortunately, the tobacco industry continues to profit at the expense of people's lives by marketing electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco products as a smoking cessation method and they continue to poison young people with new threat tobacco products, promising a "smoke-free future" Turkish Thoracic Society is actively involved in the implementation of the National Tobacco Control Program to protect public health and has warned and raised awareness of new threats to the youth, such as electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco products. The purpose of this report is to provide information about electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco products and to present TTJ's position on the subject.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic has affected the entire health system and patients other than coronavirus-infected patients. Hospital admissions of cancer patients decreased during the closure periods due to the pandemic. This study was conducted to determine whether there was an effect on the hospital admissions of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients in Turkey during the coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this retrospective study, newly diagnosed lung cancer patients were recorded from the Hospital Information Management System between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2020, at our tertiary hospital. The number of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients diagnosed in 2020 was compared with each year from 2017 to 2019. RESULTS: Between 2017 and 2020, 15 150 newly diagnosed lung cancer cases were analyzed. According to Global Cancer Observatory data, in 2018, 34 703 newly diagnosed lung cancer cases, and in 2020, 41 264 newly diagnosed lung cancer cases were observed in Turkey. Although a decrease was not observed in the number of patients according to Global Cancer Observatory data, both the total number of patients admitted to our hospital and the number of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients decreased in 2020. The number of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients by year was 4030 patients in 2017, 4004 patients in 2018, 4391 patients in 2019, and 2725 in 2020, respectively. In 2020, newly diagnosed lung cancer patients decreased by 38%, 32%, and 32% compared to 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Also, a significant decrease was seen in the number of newly diagnosed lung cancer patients in the months with closure due to the pandemic compared to the months without closure. CONCLUSION: There was a significant decrease in hospital admissions of newly diagnosed lung cancer cases in the coronavirus disease- 2019 pandemic in our referral hospital. Precautions should be considered to diagnose and treat lung cancer patients in specialized centers during a pandemic due to epidemic diseases such as coronavirus disease-2019. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background/aim: Non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (non-CF BR) is common in developing countries. Limited data are available regarding the impact of atopy, and no data are available regarding allergic rhinitis in patients with adult bronchiectasis. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of atopy and allergic rhinitis in the clinical conditions of patients with BR. Materials and methods: The study enrolled 101 patients who were diagnosed with non-CF BR using high-resolution computed chest tomography. Allergic rhinitis (AR) was defined by skin prick test (SPT) positivity and the presence of any nasal symptoms (watery runny nose, nasal obstruction, nasal itching, and sneezing). Results: The mean age of patients was 48 ± 15 years (range 18-82); 55 (54.5%) patients were female. SPT positivity was detected in 37 (36.6%) cases. AR was detected in 32 (31.7%) patients with non-CF BR. AR was related to dyspnea (P = 0.04) and number of admissions to an emergency department in the previous year (P = 0.01). Forced expiratory volume in 1 s and forced vital capacity in patients with and without AR were different (P = 0.01 and P = 0.01, respectively). AR was correlated with number of admissions to an emergency department in the last year (r = 0.417, P = 0.005). Conclusion: We concluded that atopy was detected in more than one-third of adult non-CF BR patients. This study demonstrated that non-CF BR patients might have AR; it might be important to be aware of nasal symptoms in non-CF BR patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Background: Cigarette smoking is one of the most common addictions worldwide. Muslim smokers reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke during Ramadan due to the long fasting hours. Objectives: We aimed to share our experience in a smoking cessation clinic during Ramadan by analyzing the efficacy and adverse effects of once-daily dosing of bupropion or varenicline in a fasting group compared with conventional dosing in a non-fasting group. Methods: We analyzed 57 patients who attended our smoking cessation clinic during Ramadan of 2014 and 2015, and at least one follow-up visit. For the fasting patients, we prescribed bupropion or varenicline after dinner (once daily) as the maintenance therapy. We recorded demographic characteristics of the patients, fasting state, drugs taken for smoking cessation, and the dosage of the medication. At the first follow-up visit, adverse effects seen with the treatment were recorded. We conducted telephone interviews 6months after the first visits of the patients to learn the current smoking status of the groups. Results: Of the total 57 patients, 20 (35.1%) were fasting and 37 (64.9%) were not fasting. Fasting and non-fasting patients were similar for sex, age, smoking pack-years, marital status, educational status, and mean Fagerstrom scores (p >.05). Adverse effects and quit rates after 6 months of follow-up were similar between the fasting and non-fasting groups (p >.05). Conclusion: Although our sample size was small, we found no difference in the rates of adverse effects or smoking cessation using a single daily oral dose of bupropion or varenicline between a fasting group and a non-fasting group that received conventional dosing., NA

Aim: This study aimed to investigate depression and anxiety and related factors among patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis.Patients and methods: This was a prospective study of 133 patients with bronchiectasis. Patients with confirmed diagnosis of bronchiectasis with high-resolution computed tomography were enrolled in the study. Patients that were clinically stable in the previous 4 weeks were evaluated with the Hospital Depression and Anxiety scale. Symptoms, pulmonary function tests, and medical treatments were recorded.Results: The mean age of patients was 49.5±14.5 years (range, 18–77 years), and 81 (60.9%) patients were females. Twenty-eight (21.1%) patients had depression, and 53 (39.8%) had anxiety. Depression score was related to family situation (living with a partner), previous depression history and admission to an emergency department within the last year. Anxiety score was related to female gender, the family situation (living with a partner), previous depression history, and admission to an emergency department within the last year (P<0.05). Depression was positively correlated with hemoptysis, admission to an emergency department within the last year and living with a partner. Anxiety was positively correlated with education l
