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.

    Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are associated with weight loss in older people with dementia: a systematic review and meta-analysis
    (2016-12-01T00:00:00Z) Soysal, PINAR; Isik, Ahmet Turan; Stubbs, Brendon; Solmi, Marco; Volpe, Marco; Luchini, Claudio; D'Onofrio, Grazia; Pilotto, Alberto; Manzato, Enzo; Sergi, Giuseppe; Schofield, Patricia; Veronese, Nicola; SOYSAL, PINAR
    We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis investigating the influence of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEIs) therapy on nutritional status and weight across observational and interventional studies. Two authors searched major electronic databases from inception until 10/14/2015 for longitudinal, open-label and randomised double-blind placebo controlled (randomised controlled trials (RCTs)) studies of AChEIs in patients with dementia reporting nutritional status outcome data. Out of 3551 initial hits, 25 studies (12 open-label trials, 9 RCTs and 4 longitudinal studies) including 10 792 patients with dementia were metaanalysed. In longitudinal studies (median follow-up 6 months), a significant cumulative incidence of weight loss between baseline and follow-up evaluation was observed (studies= 2; 5%; 95% CI 1% to 34%, p< 0.0001; I2= 95%). These findings were confirmed in open-label trials (6%; 95% CI 4% to 7%, p< 0.0001; I-2= 78%). In 9 RCTs (median followup 5 months), those taking AChEIs more frequently experienced weight loss than participants taking placebo (OR= 2.18; 95% CI 1.50 to 3.17, p< 0.0001; I-2= 29%). AChEIs therapy contributes to weight loss in patients with dementia, with a 2-fold increased risk observed in the meta-analysis of RCTs. Clinicians should carefully consider the benefit and risk of prescribing AChEIs. Nutritional status should be routinely evaluated in patients with dementia treated with AChEIs.

    The Saint Louis University Mental Status Examination Is Better than the Mini-Mental State Examination to Determine the Cognitive Impairment in Turkish Elderly People
    (2016-04-01T00:00:00Z) Kaya, Derya; Isik, Ahmet Turan; Usarel, Cansu; Soysal, PINAR; Ellidokuz, Hulya; Grossberg, George T.; SOYSAL, PINAR
    Introduction: Presence of detailed screening instruments to detect cognitive impairment in the older adults- culture and language is very essential. The Saint Louis University Mental Status Examination (SLUMS) is one of cognitive screening scales used. The aim of the study was to establish the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of SLUMS (SLUMS-T).
