Publication Analysis of 1022 procedures from a single center(2011-06-11T00:00:00Z) Kut, Arif; Çakır, Erkan; Çakır, Fatma Betül; Torun, Emel; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; ÇAKIR, FATMA BETÜL; TORUN, EMELPublication The comparition of the efficacy of two different probiotics in rotavirus gastroenteritis in children.(2012-01-01T00:00:00Z) Erdoğan, O; Tanyeri, B; Torun, EMEL; Gönüllü, E; Arslan, H; Oktem, F; TORUN, EMEL; ERENBERK, UFUKThe aim of the study is to compare the clinical effectiveness of the probiotics—Saccharomyces boulardii and Bifidobacterium lactis—in children who had been diagnosed with rotavirus gastroenteritis. Materials and methods. Seventy five patients aged between 5 months–5 years diagnosed as rotavirus gastroenteritis were included in the study. The patients diagnosed as rotavirus gastroenteritis by latex agglutination test in stool were divided into 3 groups of twenty-five patients each: First group was given oral rehydration therapy and rapid refeeding with a normal diet with Saccharomyces boulardii (spp. I-745), second group was given oral rehydration therapy and rapid refeeding with a normal diet with Bifidobacterium lactis (spp. B94, culture number: N◦118529) and third group received only oral rehydration therapy and rapid refeeding with a normal diet. Results. The duration of diarrhea was shorter in the group given oral rehydration therapy and rapid refeeding with a normal diet with Bifidobacterium lactis and Saccharomyces boulardii than the group given only oral rehydration therapy and rapid refeeding with a normal diet. Conclusion. Bifidobacterium lactis has a complemental role in the treatment of rotavirus gatroenteritis and other probiotics may also have a beneficial effect in rotavirus gastroenteritis compared with the therapy included only oral rehydration therapy and rapid refeeding with a normal diet.Publication Characteristic features of migraine in schoolchildren and adolescents and its relationship with autonomic nervous system disorders.(2013-10-01) TORUN, EMEL; Gursoy, E; GULER, S; KOLUKıSA, MEHMET; TATLI, B; TORUN, EMEL; GÜRSOY, AZIZE ESRA; KOLUKISA, MEHMETPublication The effects of internet use intensity on qualityof life, anxiety and depression scores in pediatric migraine(2014-01-01T00:00:00Z) Torun, Emel; Güler, Serhat; Küçükkoç, Mehmet; Ölçer, Sema; Arslan, Hüseyin; TORUN, EMELPublication Tekrarlayan Ürtiker ve Anjioödemle Seyreden Kist Hidatik(2011-03-01) bayraktar, süleyman; kahraman, e; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; TORUN, EMEL; ÇAKIR, ERKANPublication Vitamin D Deficiency and Insufficiency in Obese Children and Adolescents and Its Relationship with Insulin Resistance(2013-01-01) Torun, EMEL; GONULLU, Erdem; Ozgen, Ilker Tolga; CINDEMIR, Ergul; OKTEM, Faruk; TORUN, EMEL; ÖZGEN, İLKER TOLGAObjectives. We aimed to determine the relationship between insulin resistance and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25-OHD) levels in obese children and their nonobese peers. Materials and Methods. Included in the study group were 188 obese children (aged 9-15 years), and 68 age- and gender-matched healthy children of normal weight as control group. Anthropomorphic data were collected on patients and fasting serum glucose, insulin, serum lipids, alanine aminotransaminase (ALT) and 25-OHD were measured. The homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated in both groups. Results. The levels of 25-OHD in the obese group were significantly lower than those of the nonobese (P = 0.002). HOMA-IR, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, and ALT levels in the obese group were significantly higher than values of control group (P < 0.001 and P = 0.002, resp.). In the obese group, vitamin D deficiency, insufficiency, and sufficiency (25-OHD < 10 ng/dl, < 20, >10 ng/dl; > 20 ng/dl, resp.) were not correlated with HOMA-IR (r : -0.008, P = 0.935). HOMA-IR was negatively correlated with BMI, BMI SDS, and BMI%, and triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, and ALT levels (P < 0.001). Conclusion. The insulin resistance of the obese subjects who were vitamin D deficient and insufficient did not statistically differ from those with vitamin D sufficiency. Low 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels were not related with higher insulin resistance in obese children and adolescents. In obese subjects, insulin resistance was affected more from BMI, BMI SDS, and BMI% than from 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels.Publication Vitamin D-containing supplements for children between 1-3 years of age: Are they essential for bone health?(2015-01-01) Torun, EMEL; KAHRAMAN, Feyza Ustabas; OSMANOGLU, Nurcan Keskin; KUCUKKOC, Mehmet; DONMEZ, Tugrul; ORUCOGLU, Suera; Ozgen, Ilker Tolga; TORUN, EMEL; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, FEYZA; ÖZGEN, İLKER TOLGAObjective: We aim to evaluate how vitamin D-containing supplements affect the vitamin D status of children 1-3 years old and to assess the variation of the vitamin D concentrations across different seasons.Publication Antimicrobial peptides cathelicidin (LL37) and human beta 2 defensin levels of pediatric patients with bronchiolitis obliterans(2014-09-07T00:00:00Z) Gedik, Ahmet Hakan; Çakır, Erkan; Gökdemir, Yasemin; Uyan, Seda; Koçyiğit, Abdürrahim; Torun, Emel; Karadağ, Bülent Taner; Ersu, Refika; Karakoç, Fazilet; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; KOÇYİĞİT, ABDÜRRAHİM; TORUN, EMELPublication Lokal Anestezik Uygulamasının Ender Bir Komplikasyonu: Methemoglobinemi(2013-11-01) UZUNER, SELÇUK; Küçükkoç, Mehmet; TORUN, EMEL; KARDAS, M; GOKCE, S; UZUNER, SELÇUK; TORUN, EMELPublication Evaluation of 563 children with chronic cough accompanied by a new clinical algorithm(2015-10-06) GEDIK, Ahmet Hakan; BAHALI, Kayhan; KUCUKKOC, Mehmet; NURSOY, Mustafa; GOKCE, Selim; Cakir, ERKAN; Ozkaya, EMİN; Uzuner, SELÇUK; Erenberk, UFUK; Torun, EMEL; DEMIR, Aysegul Dogan; AKSOY, Fadlullah; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; TORUN, EMEL; ERENBERK, UFUK; UZUNER, SELÇUK; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; AKSOY, FADLULLAHBackground: This study aims to evaluate the children with chronic cough and to analyze their etiological factors according to the age groups. Method: Five hundred sixty-three children with chronic cough were included. The last diagnosis were established and were also emphasized according to the age groups. Results: The mean age was 5.4 ± 3.8 years (2-months–17-years) and 52 % of them were male. The most common final diagnosis from all the participants were: asthma (24.9 %), asthma-like symptoms (19 %), protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) (11.9 %), and upper airway cough syndrome (9.1 %). However, psychogenic cough was the second most common diagnosis in the subjects over 6 years of age. Conclusion: Asthma and asthma-like symptoms were the most common diagnosis in children. Different age groups in children may have a different order of frequencies. Psychogenic cough should be thought of in the common causes especially in older children.
