Description
Barış, Adalet ve Güçlü Kurumlar Sürdürülebilir kalkınma için barışçıl ve kapsayıcı toplumlar tesis etmek, herkes için adalete erişimi sağlamak ve her düzeyde etkili, hesap verebilir ve kapsayıcı kurumlar oluşturmak. Barış, istikrar, insan hakları ve hukukun üstünlüğüne dayalı etkin yönetim olmadan, sürdürülebilir kalkınma olmasını bekleyemeyiz. Gittikçe artan ölçüde bölünmüş bir dünyada yaşıyoruz. Bazı bölgelerde barış, güvenlik ve refah sürekli iken, diğer bazı bölgelerde ise bitmek bilmeyen çatışma ve şiddet sarmalı var. Ancak bu, hiçbir şekilde kaçınılmaz sonuç değildir ve mutlaka çözümlenmelidir.

    (2015-10-22T00:00:00Z) GÜNER CAN, Meltem; ÖZCAN, Pınar; Hatipoglu, Sinan; Cavdaroglu, Ozgur; Hatipoglu, Filiz; BERBER, İbrahim; ÇAKIR, Ülkem; ÖZCAN, PINAR
    © Ann Transplant, 2015.Backround: Laparoscopic approach has become the standard procedure for living donor nephrectomy in many transplant centers. Because the conventional approach results in cosmetic problems and pain during laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy, transvaginal extraction of an intact kidney has been recently introduced as a minimally invasive technique. Here, we aimed to investigate whether transvaginal extraction of an intact kidney during laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy is associated with decreased postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting, and morphine consumption. Material/Methods: This prospective data analysis included a total of 27 female donors who underwent laparoscopic removal of a single kidney for living donor nephrectomy through conventional or transvaginal route. Data collected included age, body mass index, ASA scores, histocompatibility, additional medical disorders, peri- and postoperative complications, postoperative pain scores with visual analogue pain scores (VAS), length of postoperative stay, morphine consumption, degree of nausea and vomiting, level of sedation, and pruritus. Results: No significant differences between the transvaginal and conventional groups were observed in VAS scores and morphine consumption at postoperative 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours. Although not reaching statistical significance, according to analysis of morphine consumption, there was a trend toward decreasing analgesic requirements in the transvaginal group at postoperative 12 and 24 hours. There were no significant differences between the groups in terms of degree of nausea or vomiting, or length of postoperative hospital stay. Conclusions: We suggest that with a more desirable cosmetic result, transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery-assisted living donor nephrectomy (TVNALDN) is a suitable new minimally invasive laparoscopic technique associated with reduced postoperative pain and analgesic requirements in select women.

    The predictive value of weight gain and waist circumference for gestational diabetes mellitus
    (2019-09-01T00:00:00Z) TAKMAZ, TAHA; Yalvac, Ethem Serdar; ÖZCAN, Pınar; Coban, Ulas; Karasu, AYŞE FİLİZ; Unsal, Mehmet; TAKMAZ, TAHA; ÖZCAN, PINAR; GÖKMEN KARASU, AYŞE FİLİZ
    Objective: The first objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and gestational weight gain (WG), waist circumference (WC), prepregnancy, and gestational body mass index (BMI). The second aim of our study was to assess the ability of WG, WC, prepregnancy, and gestational BMI with special reference to their cut-off points on predicting the risk of GDM in pregnant women in Turkey.

    Are chronotype and subjective sleep quality associated with preeclampsia and preterm birth?
    (2020-02-20T04:00:00Z) TAKMAZ, TAHA; Unal, Busra; ÖZCAN, Pınar; ARICI HALICI, BELFİN NUR; Gorchiyeva, Irana; GÖKMEN KARASU, AYŞE FİLİZ; Sahbaz, Cigdem; TAKMAZ, TAHA; ÖZCAN, PINAR; ARICI HALICI, BELFİN NUR; GÖKMEN KARASU, AYŞE FİLİZ; ŞAHBAZ, ÇIĞDEM DILEK
    The physiological and physical changes in pregnancy affect the sleep-wake cycle. Limited data exist to evaluate the effect of sleep quality and chronotype during pregnancy on adverse pregnancy outcomes. It is hypothesized that there could be a tendency for the evening chronotype and sleep disturbances to lead to the development of preeclampsia and preterm birth. A total of 313 pregnant women were included. Women were divided into three groups: Group A (control - problem-free), Group B (preeclampsia) and Group C (preterm birth). There were significant differences in the mean PSQI score between the groups (A vs C and A vs B) (p < 0.01). Women in the preterm and the preeclampsia groups reported significantly worse sleep quality. There was a significant difference in the mean MEQ scores between groups (A vs C and A vs B) (p < 0.01). The ratio of the evening-types was significantly higher for the preterm and preeclampsia groups (p < 0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that there is a negative association between preeclampsia/preterm birth and MEQ score, positive association between preeclampsia/preterm birth and PSQI score. Chronotype and sleep quality measurements could provide a simple and feasible way in the prediction of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

    2-D and 3-D ultrasonographic characteristics of the ovary in women with PCOS and multifollicular ovaries
    (2020-10-01T00:00:00Z) Bozkurt, Murat; Kara Bozkurt, Duygu; Kurban, Didem; TAKMAZ, TAHA; ŞEVKET, Osman; ÖZCAN, Pınar; TAKMAZ, TAHA; ŞEVKET, OSMAN; ÖZCAN, PINAR
    In this prospective study, seventy-six patients (PCOS group; n = 36, multifollicular ovary group; n = 40) were evaluated by 2-D and 3-D ultrasonography. VOCAL programme, echogenicity, number of follicles and blood flow parameters were evaluated. The patients with PCOS had a higher total ovarian volume, mean stromal volume and stromal echogenicity (18.6 +/- 4.75 to 10.2 +/- 3.4p .05). 3 D power Doppler parameters included VI, FI, and VFI values of the patients with PCOS were higher when compared to those of the patients with multifollicular ovary (3.82 +/- 2.65 to 1.78 +/- 1.2,p < .01; 50.76 +/- 4.45 to 40.6 +/- 3.64,p = .03; and 2.34 +/- 1.02 to 1.12 +/- 0.65,p = .02, respectively). Our results revealed that total ovarian volume, stromal volume and echogenicity; VFI, VI, and FI could be useful for differential diagnosis in women with PCOS and multifollicular ovaries.Impact statement What is already known on this subject?Ultrasonography is considered the new diagnostic tool for PCOS. Enlarged ovaries with multiple small follicles peripherally located around increased ovarian stroma with increased stromal echogenicity are the sonographic features of polycystic ovaries. What do the results of this study add?3-D Doppler ultrasonography may be more specific in the determination of multifollicular and polycystic ovaries when compared to RI and PI in 2-D Doppler ultrasonography. Moreover, 3-D power Doppler ultrasonography could be useful for differential diagnosis in women with PCOS and multifollicular ovaries. What are the implications of these findings for clinical practice and/or further research?In clinical practice, the differentiation of multifollicular ovaries and polycystic ovaries (PCO) is difficult with the use of 2-D sonography alone. Therefore, 3-D ultrasound and power Doppler may also be used in addition to 2-D ultrasound for the differentiation of multifollicular ovaries and PCO.

    Cephalad-caudad versus transverse blunt expansion of the low transverse uterine incision during cesarean delivery
    (2016-07-01T00:00:00Z) Xodo, Serena; Saccone, Gabriele; Cromi, Antonella; ÖZCAN, Pınar; Spagnolo, Emanuela; Berghella, Vincenzo; ÖZCAN, PINAR
    It is imperative to have evidence-based guidelines for cesarean delivery. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the effectiveness of a cephalad caudad compared to transverse blunt expansion of the uterine incision to reduce blood loss in women who underwent low-segment transverse cesarean delivery. We therefore performed a systematic search in electronic databases from their inception until March 2016. We included all randomized trials comparing cephalad caudad versus transverse (control group) blunt expansion of the uterine incision in women who underwent a low transverse cesarean delivery. The primary outcome was postpartum blood loss, defined as the mean amount of blood loss (mL). Two trials (921 women) were analyzed. After the transverse uterine incision in the lower uterine segment with the scalpel, the uterine incision was then bluntly expanded by the designated method. Blunt expansion of the primary incision was derived by placing the index fingers of the operating surgeon into the incision and pulling the fingers apart laterally (transverse group) or cephalad (cephalad caudad group). Women who were randomized in the cephalad caudad group had lower: mean of postpartum blood loss, hemoglobin drop and hematocrit drop 24 h after cesarean, unintended extension, uterine vessels injury, blood loss >1500 mL and need for additional stitches. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of blood loss >1000 mL, in the operating time and in post-operative pain. In conclusion, expansion of the uterine incision with fingers in a cephalad caudad direction is associated with better maternal outcomes and, therefore, should be preferred to transverse expansion during a cesarean delivery.
