Publication Open Access Serum catalase, thiol and myeloperoxidase levels in children passively exposed to cigarette smoke.(2019-05-09T00:00:00Z) Torun, Emel; Kahraman, Feyza Ustabas; Goksu, Ahmet Zaid; Vahapoglu, Aysel; Çakın, Zeynep Ebru; TORUN, EMEL; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, FEYZA; VEHAPOĞLU TÜRKMEN, AYSELBackground: Free radicals found in cigarette smoke can harm all tissues and cellular structures in the human body. Passive smoking increases free radical production, leads to the depletion of antioxidants and increases oxidative stress which causes lipid peroxidation. Many studies have been conducted to determine the effects of passive smoking on antioxidant enzymes and lipid levels in adults, but pediatric studies on this topic are few. In our study, we compared the levels of antioxidants, oxidants, total and LDL cholesterol in children exposed to passive cigarette smoking with a healthy control group that was not exposed to passive smoking.Publication Metadata only Brown Sendromu: Olgu sunusu(2014-04-11) TORUN E.; ORUÇLU Ş.; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN F.; ARUÇİ N.; AKKAN J.

In this case-control study, 50 Turkish children with IDA and 50 healthy controls were enrolled. Three MPO gene alleles were selected for genotyping in the study: GG, AG, and AA. The relationships of alleles with IDA were analyzed and compared in patients and controls. Pretreatment and posttreatment laboratory parameters and gene polymorphisms were compared in the patient group. There was a significant difference between patients with IDA and controls regarding genotype frequencies of the AA, GG, and AG alleles (P=0.005). However, the AG allele was found to be associated with variations in hemoglobin, red blood cell, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volumes, and mean corpuscular Hb concentrations levels. The frequency of AA, GG, and AG alleles of the MPO gene was potentially associated with changes in iron metabolism and the AG allele led to variations in various hemogram parameters.Publication Metadata only Pasif sigara içicisi olan çocuklarda oksidatif stress ve paraoksonaz düzeylerinin değerlendirilmesi(2014-04-11) USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN F.; TORUN E.; KESKİN OSMANOĞLU N.; ORUÇLU Ş.; ÖZER Ö. F.; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, FEYZA; TORUN, EMEL; ÖZER, ÖMER FARUKPublication Metadata only Serum oxidative stress parameters and paraoxonase-1 in children and adolescents exposed to passive smoking(2017-01-01) KAHRAMAN, Feyza Ustabas; Torun, EMEL; OSMANOGLU, Nurcan Keskin; ORUCLU, Suera; Ozer, Omer Faruk; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, FEYZA; TORUN, EMEL; ÖZER, ÖMER FARUKBackground: Exposure to secondhand smoke is too common in many countries. The mechanism of the detrimental effects of passive smoking on childhood health, however, is poorly described. The purpose of this study was therefore to examine the effect of passive smoking on total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS), and paraoxonase-1 in children compared with healthy non-passive smokers.
