Publication Metadata only Diyabet ve Prediyabet Hastalarındaki Kognitif Bozulmanın Hipertrigliseridemi İle İlişkisi(2023-06-14) Şekerci A.; Sümbül Şekerci B.; ŞEKERCİ, ABDÜSSELAM; SÜMBÜL ŞEKERCİ, BETÜLPublication Metadata only Treatment adherence and related factors in Parkinson's disease patients without dementia(2022-12-01) Sümbül Şekerci B.; Hanağası H. A.; Bilgiç B.; Emre M.; SÜMBÜL ŞEKERCİ, BETÜLBackground and Objective: Patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) have many risk factors for treatment nonadherence, such as cognitive impairment, depression, polypharmacy, and medication regimen complexity. Adherence in PD should be carefully monitored to accurately assess the patient’s clinical and treatment responseMethod: This is a cross-sectional observational study. Sixty patients who were diagnosed with PD according to the UK PD Association’s Brain Bank criteria and had at least primary school education participated in our study. Patients with a diagnosis of dementia or who received deep brain stimulation, apomorphine infusion, and levodopa/carbidopa intestinal gel therapy were excluded from the study. Main outcome measures: Adherence was evaluated with the 4-item Morisky medication adherence scale. The course of the patients was gauged with the MDS-Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS). MDS-UPDRS subscores are as follows; Part 1: nonmotor experiences of daily life Part 2: motor experiences of daily life Part 3: motor examination Part 4: motor complications. In the evaluation of patients, Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living Rating Scale (SE-ADL) was used for activities of daily living, MoCA for cognitive status, Beck Depression and anxiety scales for mood. The number of drugs used by the patients and LDED were calculated. Results: The mean age of the patients was 62.40 (± 10.25) and 70% of them were male (n:42). There was no significant difference between the adherence of the patients according to the Hoehn and Yahr stages. There was a significant correlation between adherence and depression (p 0.005, r - 0.372), anxiety (0.009 r - 0.357), UPDRS-1 (p 0.006 r - 0.373), UPDRS-2 (p 0.027 r - 0.304), SEADL (p 0.001, r 0.438) scores. When these variables were included in the regression analysis with the enter method, SE-ADL score were found to be significant for predicting adherence (p 0.041, OR 0.328). Conclusion: Motor and non-motor problems of daily life are associated with non-adherence in PD patients without dementia. Treatment of non-motor symptoms such as depression and anxiety may contribute to adherence. Higher independence of patients in daily life increases adherence.Publication Metadata only Diyabet Hastalarında Gözardı Edilen Bir Komplikasyon: Kognitif Bozulma.(2022-12-23) Şekerci A.; Sümbül Şekerci B.; Selvitop R.; Yüksel Salduz Z.

İ.; ŞEKERCİ, ABDÜSSELAM; SÜMBÜL ŞEKERCİ, BETÜL; YÜKSEL SALDUZ, ZEYNEB İREMBackground and Objective: Cognitive impairment is one of the most important complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Anticholinergic burden can cause cognitive decline. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between cognitive impairment and anticholinergic burden in patients with T2DM. Method: Seventy-three patients diagnosed with T2DM according to ADA criteria and using oral antidiabetic drugs for treatment participated in our study. Patients with a history of serious psychiatric (e.g.,major depressive disorder) or neurological disease (e.g., cerebrovascular disease, brain tumor, head trauma) were excluded. Main outcome measures: The cognition of the patients was evaluated with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). The cut-off score of the MoCA for cognitive impairment is 21 according to the validation of the Turkish Version. The drugs used by the patients were analyzed and the anticholinergic burden was calculated according to the anticholinergic cognitive burden (ACB) scale. Results: The mean age of the patients in our study was 50.60 (± 8.19). While ACB was not observed in the drugs of 67 patients, 5 patients used drugs with ACB Score of 1. The cognition of 45 (61.6%) patients with T2DM was impaired and 28 (38.3%) patients were normal. There is no significant difference in age of cognition groups. Attention (p \0.001), language (p \0.001) and orientation (p\ 0.001) scores were significantly worse in T2DM with impaired cognition. No significant difference was found between the ACB burden of DM patients with normal cognition and impaired cognition. Conclusion: In our study, no relationship was found between cognitive impairment in T2DM and ACB. Future studies involving larger sample and higher ACB may provide more detailed information.Publication Metadata only Non-medical Use of Prescription Psychostimulants and Academic Performance in Medical Students(2023-12-01) Sümbül Şekerci B.; Bektay M.
