    (2020-06-01T00:00:00Z) Sahbaz, Cigdem; Zibandey, Noushin; KURTULMUŞ, AYŞE; Duran, Yazgul; Gokalp, Muazzez; KIRPINAR, İSMET; ŞAHİN, FİKRETTİN; Guloksuz, Sinan; AKKOÇ, TUNÇ; ŞAHBAZ, ÇIĞDEM DILEK; KURTULMUŞ, AYŞE; KIRPINAR, İSMET
    Aim To investigate whether circulating T cells including regulatory T cells (Treg) and derived cytokines contribute to the immune imbalance observed in schizophrenia. Methods Forty patients with schizophrenia and 40 age, sex, body mass index, education, and smoking status-matched healthy controls (HC) are included in the study. We stained cells with anti-CD14, anti-CD3, anti-CD4, anti-CD8, anti-CD19, anti-CD20, and anti-CD16/56. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated and stained with the human FoxP3 kit containing anti-CD4/anti-CD25 and intracellular anti-Foxp3. PBMCs were cultured for 72 h and stimulated with anti-CD3/anti-CD28. Cytokines (IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, and IL-17A) were measured from the culture supernatant and plasma using the Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokine bead array kit. Results In comparison with HC, Treg percentages in schizophrenia were higher (1.17 +/- 0.63 vs 0.81 +/- 0.53, P = 0.005) in unstimulated but lower in the stimulated condition (0.73 +/- 0.69 vs 0.97 +/- 0.55, P = 0.011). Activated T cell percentages were higher in schizophrenia than HC in unstimulated (2.22 +/- 0.78 vs 1.64 +/- 0.89, P = 0.001) and stimulated (2.25 +/- 1.01 vs 1.72 +/- 1.00, P = 0.010) conditions. The culture supernatant levels of IL-6 (7505.17 +/- 5170.07 vs 1787.81 +/- 1363.32, P < 0.001), IL-17A (191.73 +/- 212.49 vs 46.43 +/- 23.99, P < 0.001), TNF-alpha (1557 +/- 1059.69 vs 426.57 +/- 174.62, P = 0.023), and IFN-gamma (3204.13 +/- 1397.06 vs 447.79 +/- 270.13, P < 0.001); and plasma levels of IL-6 (3.83 +/- 3.41vs 1.89 +/- 1.14, P = 0.003) and IL-17A (1.20 +/- 0.84 vs 0.83 +/- 0.53, P = 0.033) were higher in patients with schizophrenia than HC. Conclusion Our explorative study shows reduced level of Foxp3 expressing Treg in a stimulated condition with induced levels of proinflammatory cytokines in patients with schizophrenia.

    Problematic Patient
    (2021-06-01T00:00:00Z) KIRPINAR, İSMET; Ayhan, M. Suhan; GÜNEREN, Ethem; KIRPINAR, İSMET; GÜNEREN, ETHEM
    The group of patients defined as -problematic patient- in aesthetic plastic surgical practice has distinctive features. The -problematic patient- is the patient who blocks the establishment of a therapeutic relationship with him/her. In other words, the patient who does not adapt to the patient role that the health-care professional expects, has different values, beliefs, or personal characteristics than he/she expects to see, and sometimes causes the professional to even suspect himself/herself. They are not good candidates for esthetic surgery, and they should definitely not be operated, so to speak, these patients should be removed from the game by removing a red card, and somehow be disqualified from the process.

    Introduction: Eating disorders (ED) constitute an important group of conditions that commonly occur in adolescents. Gastrointestinal complaints are frequently reported in ED patients. Few studies assessed the association of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) with ED. The aim of the current study is to determine the prevalence of ED in a group of IBS patients and compare it with a healthy control group and assess the relationship of IBS sub-types, it-s duration and severity with ED.

    COVID-19 Pandemic: Stress and Psychiatric Disorders
    (2021-02-01T00:00:00Z) KIRPINAR, İSMET; KIRPINAR, İSMET
    The epidemic, which first started as viral pneumonia in Wuhan, China at the end of 2019 and is now known as Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19). rapidly spread to almost every part of the world and named a pandemic in March 2020. It is well known that psychiatric symptoms and syndromes, especially posttraumatic stress disorder, major depression, anxiety, and sleep disorders reach high prevalence values in natural or man-made disasters, Especially in infectious disease epidemics where mortality rates are high, patients, those who arc quarantined, and the whole society experience very intense mental stress and trauma. It is not easy to avoid psychological distress after facing highly fatal illnesses such as Ebola, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), or COVID-19. When pandemics turn into a rapid and global disaster, the prevalence values of mental problems reach even higher levels. Combating mental disorders not only provides psychological well-being but also affects the course of the epidemic, as these disorders can delay efforts to fight epidemics. Mental health complaints increase in healthcare workers as a result of the stress and trauma of working during the epidemic. Studies report that during the SARS epidemic, approximately one-fifth of healthcare workers experienced 'significant mental disorders'. Medical professionals who develop mental disorders will be less productive, which will weaken the fight against the epidemic. Therefore, it is very important to support healthcare professionals. Since the COVID-19 outbreak is a relatively recent disaster, epidemiological study results have not yet been published sufficiently. However, the results of serious epidemics caused by viruses such as SARS and Ebola have previously been published. In this review, information about the psychiatric morbidity expected after COVID-19 is reviewed in the light of the results of studies conducted mainly in previous virus epidemics.

    Can we predict who will be more anxious and depressed in the COVID-19 ward?
    (2021-01-01T00:00:00Z) Sahan, Ebru; Unal, Shafiga Mursalova; KIRPINAR, İSMET; ŞAHAN, EBRU; KIRPINAR, İSMET
    Objective: Hospitalized patients with COVID-19 are at high risk for anxiety and depression, but most studies about mental health during the pandemic included the general public, healthcare workers, and students. We aimed to explore the anxiety and depression levels, prevalence and predictors in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Methods: In this cross-sectional, exploratory study, sociodemographic and clinical features of 281 patients with confirmed COVID-19 were explored. Patients underwent a comprehensive psychiatric assessment and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was administered through a telephonic interview. Results: The mean age of the participants was 55.0 ± 14.9 years. One hundred forty-three (50.9%) patients were male, and 138 (49.1%) were female. Ninety-eight (34.9%) patients had significant levels of anxiety and 118 (42.0%) had significant levels of depression. Female gender, staying alone in a hospital room, early days of hospital stay, and any lifetime psychiatric disorder was associated with symptoms of anxiety. Being over 50 years of age, staying alone in a hospital room, and NSAID use before the week of hospital admission were associated with symptoms of depression. Anxiety and depression levels were lower when family members who tested positive for COVID-19 stayed in the same hospital room during treatment. Conclusion: Women, patients >50 years, patients who used NSAIDs before hospital admission, and those with lifetime psychiatric disorders may be at risk for anxiety and depressive symptoms in the COVID-19 ward. Allowing family members with COVID-19 to stay in the same hospital room may be associated with lower anxiety and depression levels.

    The first male case with fluoxetine induced hair loss and review of the literature
    (2021-01-01T00:00:00Z) Karacan, FATMA; Tangilntiz, A.; KIRPINAR, İSMET; AKYÜZ KARACAN, FATMA; TANGİLNTİZ, AİSE; KIRPINAR, İSMET
    Objective: Fluoxetine is the drug of choice in the treatment of depression. It is widely preferred due to fewer side effects and greater tolerability. Hair loss is a frequent adverse effect that may occur by psychotropic drug use and that can remit by its cessation. Patients and methods: We present the diagnosis and treatment of a 26-year-old male patient. He was diagnosed with depression without psychotic features according to the DSM-V criteria and was administered fluoxetine in a dose of 20 mg/day. Results: Six weeks after the initiation of the fluoxetine treatment, the patient reported hair loss in the frontal area of the skull. These complaints regressed after cessation of drug. Conclusions: Hair loss appears to be a rare side effect of fluoxetine-based treatment. Dermatologists and psychiatrists must be informed about this adverse side effect. There might be differences in the risk of hair loss between the various SSRIs and the risk might be higher in female than in male. This male patient was the first case as far as we know in the literature. It should be kept in mind that hair loss may be observed in patients treated with fluoxetine and should be questioned in both male and female.
