Publication Open Access Evaluation of 563 children with chronic cough accompanied by a new clinical algorithm(2015-10-06) GEDIK, Ahmet Hakan; BAHALI, Kayhan; KUCUKKOC, Mehmet; NURSOY, Mustafa; GOKCE, Selim; Cakir, ERKAN; Ozkaya, EMİN; Uzuner, SELÇUK; Erenberk, UFUK; Torun, EMEL; DEMIR, Aysegul Dogan; AKSOY, Fadlullah; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; TORUN, EMEL; ERENBERK, UFUK; UZUNER, SELÇUK; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; AKSOY, FADLULLAHBackground: This study aims to evaluate the children with chronic cough and to analyze their etiological factors according to the age groups. Method: Five hundred sixty-three children with chronic cough were included. The last diagnosis were established and were also emphasized according to the age groups. Results: The mean age was 5.4 ± 3.8 years (2-months–17-years) and 52 % of them were male. The most common final diagnosis from all the participants were: asthma (24.9 %), asthma-like symptoms (19 %), protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) (11.9 %), and upper airway cough syndrome (9.1 %). However, psychogenic cough was the second most common diagnosis in the subjects over 6 years of age. Conclusion: Asthma and asthma-like symptoms were the most common diagnosis in children. Different age groups in children may have a different order of frequencies. Psychogenic cough should be thought of in the common causes especially in older children.Publication Metadata only Chronic cough in childhood:Analysis of 505 cases(2014-09-07T00:00:00Z) Gedik, Ahmet Hakan; Çakır, Erkan; Torun, Emel; Doğan Demir, Ayşegül; Uzuner, Selçuk; Erenberk, Ufuk; Nursoy, Mustafa Atilla; Özkaya, Emin; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; TORUN, EMEL; DOĞAN DEMİR, AYŞEGÜL; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ERENBERK, UFUK; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; ÖZKAYA, EMİNPublication Metadata only Oxidative Stress in Children with Noninfectious Acute Urticaria(2016-03-01T00:00:00Z) ÖZKAYA, EMİN; YAZICI, MEBRURE; ERENBERK, UFUK; Dilek, Fatih; Dundaroz, Rusen; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; YAZICI, MEBRURE; ERENBERK, UFUK; İŞCAN, AKINPlasma oxidative stress parameters such as as total oxidant status (TOS) and total antioxidant status (TAS) were well studied in some chronic allergies, but their role is not well known in acute allergic disease such as acute urticaria (AU). The aim of this study is to investigate the oxidative and antioxidative status in children with AU. Eighty-seven children with noninfectious AU and 70 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. Blood samples were taken for complete blood count, serum immunoglobulin E (IgE), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels routinely and for TOS and TAS. The skin prick test was performed and/or specific IgE assays were performed as indicated. Blood samples were also taken for TAS and TOS in the control group. Forty-eight (55%) of the children with AU were male, 39 (45%) of them were female. Mean ages were 6 +/- 2.02 and 7 +/- 1.38 years in the study and control groups, respectively. TOS levels were significantly high and TAS levels were significantly lower in the acute urticarial group (P < 0.001) than controls. There was no significant correlation between age, total IgE levels, or eosinophil count and TAS and TOS levels in children with AU. Plasma TOS levels are elevated in children with AU. The high level of TOS indicates that children with AU were exposed to severe oxidative stress.Publication Metadata only Bone mineral density and associated parameters in pre-pubertal children with asthma treated with long-term fluticasone propionate.(2013-03-01) OZKAYA, EMİN; Çakır, ERKAN; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ERENBERK, UFUK; DUNDARÖZ, MR; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ERENBERK, UFUKPublication Metadata only Evaluation of 563 children with chronic cough acompanied by a new clinical algorithm(2016-06-13T00:00:00Z) Nursoy, Mustafa Atilla; Gedik, Ahmet Hakan; Çakır, Erkan; Doğan Demir, Ayşegül; Erenberk, Ufuk; Uzuner, Selçuk; Özkaya, Emin; Aksoy, Mehmed Fadlulah; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; ÇAKIR, ERKAN; DOĞAN DEMİR, AYŞEGÜL; ERENBERK, UFUK; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; AKSOY, FADLULLAHPublication Metadata only Skin temperature measurement using an infrared thermometer on patients who have been exposed to cold.(2013-12-01) ERENBERK, UFUK; TORUN, EMEL; OZKAYA, EMİN; Uzuner, SELÇUK; DEMIR, AD; DUNDAROZ, R; ERENBERK, UFUK; TORUN, EMEL; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; UZUNER, SELÇUKPublication Metadata only Evaluation of Autonomic Nervous System function in Children with Overactive Bladder Syndrome(2017-03-01) DEMIR, Aysegul Dogan; Gursoy, AZİZE ESRA; GOKNAR, Nilufer; Uzuner, SELÇUK; Ozkaya, EMİN; Erenberk, UFUK; Vehapoglu, Aysel; DUNDAROZ, Mehmet Rusen; OKTEM, Faruk; GÜRSOY, AZIZE ESRA; UZUNER, SELÇUK; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; ERENBERK, UFUK; VEHAPOĞLU TÜRKMEN, AYSELPurpose We aimed to evaluate the autonomic nervous system activity in children with overactive bladder (OAB) syndrome.Methods Included in the study were 40 children with overactive bladder and 28 healthy controls. Autonomic tests were performed on all participants, including heart rate interval variation (RRIV), heart rate response to valsalva maneuver, and sympathetic skin response (SSR).Results Mean valsalva rates in the overactive bladder and control groups were 1.530.29 and 1.30 +/- 0.18, respectively, a statistically significant difference (P0.05).Conclusions This study demonstrated a parasympathetic hyperactivity in children with OAB, results suggesting a dysfunction in their autonomic nervous systems. (C) 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Publication Open Access Pupillometric assessment of autonomic nervous system in children with allergic rhinitis.(2013-04-01) ÖZKAYA, EMİN; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; ERENBERK, UFUKObjective: The purpose of this study was to investigate autonomic nervous system dysfunction by measuring pupil sizes in pediatric patients with allergic rhinitis. Subjects and Methods: The study group consisted of 60 children (28 girls and 32 boys) who were age and gender matched with the control group, which also consisted of 60 children (26 girls and 34 boys). The diagnosis of allergic rhinitis was based on the history, physical examination and skin prick test performed by an allergologist. Pupil diameter measurements were performed using the pupillometer incorporated in the NİDEK OPD-Scan. Results: In the allergic rhinitis group, mean photopic and mesopic pupil diameters were 3.52 ± 0.07 and 5.98 ± 0.21, respectively, while in the control group, corresponding measurements were 4.03 ± 0.18 and 6.55 ± 0.16. There was a significant difference for photopic and mesopic pupil diameter between the groups (p < 0.001). Conclusion: This study showed that the pupil size in response to a light stimulus in children with allergic rhinitis was smaller than that of the control group and may indicate parasympathetic hyperactivity and sympathetic hypoactivity.Publication Metadata only Human paraoxonase-1 activity in children with acute bronchiolitis Akut bronşiolitli çocuklarda human paraoksonaz-1 aktivitesi(2020-01-01T00:00:00Z) ERENBERK, UFUK; Kahraman, Feyza Ustabaş; Özkaya, Emin; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; Demir, Ayşegül Doğan; TÜREL, Özden; ERENBERK, UFUK; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; NURSOY, MUSTAFA ATİLLA; TÜREL, ÖZDEN© 2020, Galenos. All rights reserved.INTRODUCTION: Human paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is one of the endogenous antioxidant molecules working against oxidative stress. We aimed to investigate serum PON1 activity in children with acute bronchiolitis. MATERIALS and METHODS: A total of 29 children aged between 3-21 months with acute bronchiolitis and 35 age-matched healthy controls were included in the study. Bronchiolitis patients were further classified as mild (65%) and moderate (35%). Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities of PON1 were compared between patients with acute bronchiolitis and the control group. RESULTS: Paraoxonase activity of children with acute bronchiolitis was lower than healthy controls but the difference was not significant (127.53 ± 64.17 U/L versus 153.95 ± 74.40 U/L) (p=0.13). Arylesterase activity was significantly decreased in children with mild and moderate bronchiolitis in comparison to the control group (142.43± 56.60 kU/L and 103.70± 26.03 kU/L versus 201.09± 57.26 kU/L) (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Serum PON1 activity was lower in children with acute bronchiolitis compared to controls. Increasing antioxidant capacity may be an effective means of therapy in viral induced lung disease.Publication Metadata only Total antioxidant and oxidant status in obese children without insulin resistance(2014-01-01) DOĞAN DEMİR, AYŞEGÜL; ERENBERK, UFUK; ÖZGEN, İLKER TOLGA; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; VEHAPOĞLU TÜRKMEN, AYSEL; DÜNDARÖZ, MEHMET RUŞEN; EREL, ÖZCAN; DOĞAN DEMİR, AYŞEGÜL; ERENBERK, UFUK; ÖZGEN, İLKER TOLGA; ÖZKAYA, EMİN; VEHAPOĞLU TÜRKMEN, AYSEL
