Publication Metadata only A Case of Suicide by Hara-Kiri in Turkey(2020-04-01T00:00:00Z) Metin, Hüseyin; Sakın, Begüm; Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Sönmez, Ertan; Gülen, Bedia; METİN, HÜSEYİN; SAKIN, BEGÜM; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; SÖNMEZ, ERTAN; GÜLEN, BEDİAIntroduction: Hara-Kiri, a traditional way of suicide in Japan, is a transverse stab wound on the abdomen. Suicide attempt rate with knife injuries on the abdomen is higher in Japan than in other countries, and especially there are very few clinical data about stab wound injuries involving the transverse section of the abdomen. There are no studies in our country about self-stabbing which is a psychiatric-surgical problem. Case: A 62-year-old male patient admitted to the emergency department by ambulance for stabbing himself due to psychological problems. The omentum, stomach major curvature, and transverse colon were protruded from the transverse defect on the midline of the abdomen which is approximately 20 cm. After initial intervention and stabilization in the emergency room, the patient was transferred to the operation room and underwent urgent surgery. Conclusion: The evaluation of the vital signs and physical examinations are important in suicidal patients and also the anamnesis regarding the source of the stab wounds could help dictate treatment and predict outcomes. Although mostly being non-lethal, abdominal stab injuries in suicidal patients can be significant. Also, the treatment should be planned in collaboration with the psychiatric team in survivor suicidal patients postoperatively.Publication Metadata only COVID-19 PANDEMIC, RESTRICTIONS AND RHABDOMYOLYSIS(2021-12-03T00:00:00Z) Uğur, Yasin; Özcan, Ayşe Büşra; Gulen, Bedia; Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Sönmez, Ertan; UĞUR, YASİN; ÖZCAN, AYŞE BÜŞRA; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; SÖNMEZ, ERTANPublication Metadata only SERUM PARAOXONASE ACTIVITY AND PHENOTYPE DISTRIBUTION IN TURKISH COVID-19 PATIENTS(2021-12-03T00:00:00Z) Gülen, Bedia; Selek, Şahabettin; Çelik, Halil İsa; Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Sönmez, Ertan; Metin, Hüseyin; Sarıkaya, Ufuk; Okay, Gülay; Doymaz, Mehmet Ziya; Kazancıoğlu, Rümeyza; SELEK, ŞAHABETTİN; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; SÖNMEZ, ERTAN; OKAY, GÜLAY; DOYMAZ, MEHMET ZIYA; KAZANCIOĞLU, RÜMEYZAPublication Metadata only Can Routine blood tests be used to predict the prognosis of covid-19 patients using antithrombotic drugs.(2022-08-01T00:00:00Z) Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Sönmez, Ertan; Karataş, Ayşe; Sakın, Begüm; Kazancıoğlu, Rümeyza; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; SÖNMEZ, ERTAN; KARATAŞ, AYŞE; SAKIN, BEGÜM; KAZANCIOĞLU, RÜMEYZAPublication Metadata only Comparison of the quick SOFA score with Glasgow-Blatchford and Rockall scores in predicting severity in patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding(2021-02-01T00:00:00Z) Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Sönmez, Ertan; Özcan, Ayşe Büşra; Mehmetaj, Lıljana; Biberci Keskin, Elmas; Gulen, Bedia; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; SÖNMEZ, ERTAN; ÖZCAN, AYŞE BÜŞRA; MEHMETAJ, LILJANA; BİBERCİ KESKİN, ELMASIntroduction: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding is one of the common causes of mortality and morbidity. The Rockall score (RS) and Glasgow-Blatchford score (GBS) are frequently used in determining the prognosis and predicting in-hospital adverse events, such as mortality, re-bleeding, hospital stay, and blood transfusion requirements. The quick Sepsis Related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) score is easy and swift to calculate. The commonly used scores and the qSOFA score were compared and why and when these scores are most useful was investigated. Method: 133 patients admitted to the emergency department with upper gastrointestinal bleeding over the period of a year, were evaluated in this retrospective study. The RS, GBS and qSOFA score were calculated for each patient, and their relationship with in-hospital adverse events, such as length of hospitalization, rebleeding, endoscopic treatment, blood transfusion requirements, and mortality, was investigated. Results: The mean overall GBS was 9.72 ± 3.72 (0-19), while that of patients who did not survive was 14.0 ± 1.1 (13-16), with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.901, a cutoff value of 12.5, and specificity (Spe) and sensitivity (Sen) of 1 and 0.82, respectively. The median value of the GBS, in terms of transfusion need, was 7.12 ± 4.01 (0-15). (AUC = 0.752, cut-off = 9.5, Spe = 0.79, Sen = 0.69). The median value of the qSOFA score, in terms of intensive care need, was 1.73 ± 0.7 (0-3) (AUC = 0.921, cut-off = 0.5, Spe = 0.93, Sen = 0.79). The RS median, in terms of re-bleeding, was 8.22 ± 0.97 (6-9). Conclusion: Early use of risk stratification scores in upper gastrointestinal bleeding is important due to the high risk of morbidity and mortality. All scoring systems were effective in predicting mortality, the need for intensive care, and re-bleeding. The GBS had a greater predictive power in terms of mortality and transfusion need, the qSOFA score for intensive care need, and the RS for re-bleeding. The simpler, more efficient, and more easily calculated qSOFA score can be used to estimate the severity of patients with upper gastrointestinal bleeding.Publication Open Access Expanding the discussion on fibrinolytic contraindications(2021-08-01T00:00:00Z) Sönmez, Ertan; Özdemir, Serdar; Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Özcan, Ayşe Büşra; SÖNMEZ, ERTAN; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; ÖZCAN, AYŞE BÜŞRAPublication Metadata only Covid-19 Pandemic, Restrictions and Rhabdomyolysis(2021-08-01T00:00:00Z) Gulen, Bedia; Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Uğur, Yasin; Özcan, Ayşe Büşra; Sönmez, Ertan; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; UĞUR, YASİN; ÖZCAN, AYŞE BÜŞRA; SÖNMEZ, ERTANPublication Metadata only COIL MIGRATION FOLLOWING ENDOVASCULAR EMBOLIZATION PRESENTING AS AN ORAL FOREIGN BODY(2021-12-03T00:00:00Z) Özcan, Ayşe Büşra; Taşlıdere, Bahadır; Özatak, Ahmet Taha; Sönmez, Ertan; ÖZCAN, AYŞE BÜŞRA; TAŞLIDERE, BAHADIR; ÖZATAK, AHMET TAHA; SÖNMEZ, ERTAN
