The aims of this study were to evaluate relationships between Bronchoscopic appearance and secretion scoring, microbiological growth, radiological severity level, and pulmonary function tests in patients with non-CF BE. Methods: Children with non-CF BE were identified and collected over a 6-year period. Their medical charts and radiologic and bronchoscopic notes were retrospectively reviewed. Results: The study population consisted of 54 female and 49 male patients with a mean age of 11.7 ± 3.4 years. In the classification according to the bronchoscopic secretion score, Grade I was found in 2, Grade II in 4, Grade III in 9, Grade IV in 17, Grade V in 25, and Grade VI in 46 patients. When evaluated according to the Bhalla scoring system, 45 patients had mild BE, 37 had moderate BE, and 21 had severe BE. Microbial growth was detected in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from 50 of the patients. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and functional vital capacity decreased with increasing bronchoscopic secretion grade (P = 0.048 and P = 0.04), respectively. The degree of radiological severity increased in parallel with the bronchoscopic secretion score (P = 0.007). However, no relationship was detected between microbiological growth rate and radiological findings (P = 0.403). Conclusions: This study showed that bronchoscopic evaluation and especially scoring of secretions correlate with severe clinical condition, decrease in pulmonary function test, worsening in radiology scores, and increase in microbiological bacterial load in patients. Flexible endoscopic bronchoscopy should be kept in mind in the initial evaluation of non-CF BE patients.Publication Open Access Evaluation of diagnostic components and management of childhood pulmonary tuberculosis: a prospective study from Istanbul, Turkey.(2022-01-31T00:00:00Z) Dogan Demir, Aysegul; Kut, Arif; Ozaydin, Erhan; Cakir, Fatma Betul; Nursoy, Mustafa; Ustabas Kahraman, Feyza; Erenberk, Ufuk; Uzuner, Selcuk; Collak, Abdulhamit; Cakin, Zeynep Ebru; Cakir, Erkan; ÇAKIR, FATMA BETÜL; USTABAŞ KAHRAMAN, FEYZA; ERENBERK, UFUK; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ÇAKIR, ERKANIntroduction: The diagnosis of childhood tuberculosis is difficult and most of the patients are diagnosed clinically. The objective of this study is to reveal the diagnostic and therapeutic components of childhood pulmonary tuberculosis and to analyze the changes that occurred in our country over the years. Methodology: All patients diagnosed with tuberculosis between 2006 and 2016 were included. Demographic characteristics, diagnostic and treatment outcomes were recorded and patients were followed up prospectively. Results: A total of 492 patients were included in the study. 97% had Bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccine, 36% were diagnosed with microbiologically-confirmed tuberculosis and 64% were diagnosed with clinically-proven tuberculosis. 94% of the patients had symptoms consistent with tuberculosis, all patients had radiologic findings, 74% had a history of tuberculosis contact and 63% had tuberculin skin test positivity. The diagnoses included primary tuberculosis in 62%, secondary tuberculosis in 21%, progressive primary tuberculosis in 13% and miliary tuberculosis in 4%. 48% of the patients received a treatment regimen containing three drugs as the initial treatment, and drug-related side effects developed in 12%. Isoniazid resistance was detected in 13% of the patients and rifampicin resistance was detected in 8%. None of the patients died due to tuberculosis. In the last 50 years in Turkey, the rates of Bacillus Calmette-Guerin vaccination and diagnosis of tuberculosis cases have increased and the mortality rates have decreased over the years. Conclusions: Our study is one of the few prospective studies and revealed the differences between the recent data and the past 50 years in childhood tuberculosis in Turkey.Publication Metadata only Post-intubation subglottic stenosis in children: Analysis of clinical features and risk factors.(2020-03-01T00:00:00Z) Cakir, Erkan; Atabek, AA; Uzuner, S; AlShadfan, L; Yazan, H; Ozturan, ORHAN; Cakir, FATMA BETÜL; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; ÇALIM, ÖMER FARUK; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ÖZTURAN, ORHAN; ÇAKIR, FATMA BETÜL
