Letter Citation - WoS: 0Medical Education During the Covid-19 Pandemic: Experience From a Newly Established Medical School(Springer india, 2020) Tulek, Necla; Gonullu, Ugur; Basic Sciences[No Abstract Available]Editorial Citation - WoS: 0Photo Quiz; Anthrax or Orf?(Doc design informatics Co Ltd, 2019) Tulek, Necla; Kilic, Esra Kaya; Ertem, GunayTuncer; Yuksekkaya, Esra; Basic Sciences[No Abstract Available]Article Citation - WoS: 0Retrospective Evaluation of Potential Rabies Exposure Cases Over Nine Years: Single-Center Experience(Bilimsel Tip Yayinevi, 2024) Demircan, Serife Altun; Kilic, Esra Kaya; Tulek, Necla; Kinikli, Sami; Bulut, Cemal; Basic SciencesIntroduction: T & uuml;rkiye is the only European country where suspected rabies exposure from animal contact is a significant public health concern. In this study, we evaluate cases investigated in our vaccination center, where individuals with suspected rabies exposure have been seeking consultation for many years. The evaluation encompasses demographic characteristics, distribution by years and seasons, the type of animal involved in the contact, the prevalence of stray animals, and the rabies vaccination status of owned animals. Materials and Methods: The study involves cases reported to the Public Health Center from those who sought consultation at our center between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2019. Demographic characteristics, distribution by years and seasons, the type of animal involved in the contact, the prevalence of stray animals, and the rabies vaccination status of owned animals were retrospectively evaluated. Results: Over the nine years, there were a total of 39.731 cases, resulting in an average of 4414 cases per year. Of these cases, 61% were male, and 68.83% were between the ages of 15 and 64. The most cases occurred in summer and autumn. Of the suspected rabies contacts, 69% involved dogs, and 83.4% of these dogs were unowned. Forty-one point eight percent of the owned dogs were vaccinated. Eighty-nine point six percent of the cats were unowned, and the rate of vaccination among the owned cats was 28.2%. Over the years, there has been a decrease in the use of the 10 -day observation approach, while an increase in the administration of rabies vaccine and/or immunoglobulin has been observed. Conclusion: Seventy percent of all risky rabies contacts involve dogs, with a high rate of 84% of these dogs being unowned. To mitigate contact involving the risk of rabies, addressing the uncontrolled reproduction of stray animals, particularly dogs, and ensuring control and vaccination of the existing animal population appear to be primary measures. Improving the vaccination rate of owned animals, currently at only 30-40%, can prevent people from encountering risky rabies contacts, thereby potentially reducing the need for rabies prophylaxis significantly.Review Citation - WoS: 0Hepatit B İnfeksiyonlarının İmmünopatogenezi(Bilimsel Tip Yayinevi, 2019) Tülek, Necla; Basic SciencesHepatit B infeksiyonları tüm dünyada majör sağlık problemleri arasında olup, siroz ve hepatoselüler karsinomanın en önemli nedenidir.Tedavide gelişmelere rağmen henüz kronik hepatit B infeksiyonunda kür sağlanamamaktadır. Hepatit B infeksiyonlarında klinik sonuçinfeksiyonun alınma yaşı, viral yük ve konağın immün yanıtına bağlıdır. Akut hepatitlerde klinik seyir subklinik hastalıktan, anikterikhepatite, ikterik hepatite ve fulminant hepatite kadar değişebilirken, kronik hepatitlerde hastalığın seyri asemptomatik inaktif durumdankronik hepatite, siroz ve hepatoselüler karsinomaya kadar değişebilir. Hepatit B virüsü hepatositlerde sitopatik olmayarak çoğalır veklinik sendromların çoğu immün yanıt ile ilişkilidir. İmmün sistem aktivasyonu virüsün eliminasyonunu sağladığı gibi karaciğer hasarınada neden olur. Hepatit B patogenezinde hücresel immün yanıt özellikle de CD8+ T hücreler santral olmasına rağmen immün sistemindiğer komponentleri de katkıda bulunur. Kronik hepatitli hastalarda hem doğal hem de adaptif immün yanıt zayıflamış ve T hücreyanıtı tükenmiş durumdadır. İmmünopatolojideki mekanizmaların daha iyi anlaşılması, yeni etkin tedavi stratejilerinin geliştirilmesindeyararlı olacaktır.Review Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Akciğer Kanserinde İmmünoterapi ve Tedavide Multidisipliner Yaklaşım(Turkish Assoc Tuberculosis & Thorax, 2020) Karadurmuş, Nuri; Kaya, Akın; Göksel, Tuncay; Yılmaz, Ülkü; Tülek, Necla; Basic SciencesAkciğer kanseri dünya genelinde kanserle ilişkili ölümlerin başlıca nedeniolmaya devam etmektedir. Son 20 yılda kanser biyolojisi ve patogenezi hakkındaki bilgiler artmış, immün kontrol noktası inhibitörleri (İKNİ) kullanımasunulmuş ve böylece solid kanserlerin tedavisinde önemli bir dönem başlamıştır. Bu derlemede; tedavide yenilikler, immünoterapi ve tedavide multidisipliner yaklaşım çerçevesinde akciğer kanseri ele alınmıştır. Küçük hücreli dışıakciğer kanseri (KHDAK) en sık görülen ve özellikleri nedeniyle İKNİ tedavisinden ideal olarak yararlanabilecek akciğer kanseri türü olması nedeniyleyazının odak noktasını oluşturmuştur. Bu derleme, akciğer kanseri tedavisindeimmünoterapi yaklaşımının göğüs hastalıkları başta olmak üzere tüm branşlarda multidisipliner farkındalığını artırmayı ve yönetimi hakkında bilgi sağlamayıamaçlayan ilk Türkçe derlemedir. Ayrıca bu derleme, KHDAK tedavisinde İKNİkullanımına ilişkin son klinik çalışmaların dikkat çekici sonuçlarını sunmasıaçısından önem teşkil etmektedir. İmmünoterapi kanser tedavisinde yeni bir dönem başlatmıştır ve İKNİ tedavisinin kendine özgü etki mekanizması yeni bazı advers olay grubunun ortaya çıkmasına nedenolmuştur, bunlar arasında pnömonitis özellikle önemlidir ve advers olaylar konusunda gerektiğinde hastaların ilgili uzmanlık dalları ilekonsülte edilmesi gerekmektedir. Akciğer kanserinde tedavi, hastanın özellikleri, histolojik özellikler, genetik durum göz önünde bulundurularak her bir hastaya özel planlanmalı ve akciğer kanserli bir hastanın tanısal değerlendirilmesi ve en uygun şekilde tedavisi içingöğüs hastalıkları, göğüs cerrahisi, tıbbi onkoloji, radyasyon onkolojisi, patoloji ve radyoloji uzmanlık dalları arasında işbirliği sağlanmalıdır. Bununla birlikte, aile hekimleri de akciğer kanserinin erken tanınmasında ve ayrıca hastalarını tütün bırakmayı teşvik ederekkanserin önlenmesinde önemli rol oynayabilirler. Ayrıca, toplumda farkındalık yaratmak ve erken tanı için akciğer kanseri yönündentarama çalışmaları yapmak hedeflenmelidirArticle Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Management of Chronic Hepatitis B in Special Patient Groups: a Consensus Report of the Study Group for Viral Hepatitis of the Turkish Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases-2023(Doc design informatics Co Ltd, 2023) Tekin, Sueda; Karakecili, Faruk; Binay, Umut Devrim; Celik, Ilhami; Tulek, Necla; Tutuncue, Ediz; Demirturk, Nese; Basic SciencesTurkish Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases Viral Hepatitis Working Group updated the consensus report on the management of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in private hosts and special situations.

We aimed to assess whether vaccine status was associated with the severity of Omicron SARS-CoV-2 infection in hospitalized patients.Methods: We conducted an international, multi-centric, retrospective study in 14 centres (Bulgaria, Croatia, France, and Turkey). We collected data on patients hospitalized for >= 24 hours between 1 December 2021 and 3 March 2022 with PCR-confirmed infection at a time of exclusive Omicron circu-lation and hospitalization related or not related to the infection. Patients who had received prophylaxis by monoclonal antibodies were excluded. Patients were considered fully vaccinated if they had received at least two injections of either mRNA and/or ChAdOx1-S or one injection of Ad26.CoV2-S vaccines. Results: Among 1215 patients (median age, 73.0 years; interquartile range, 57.0-84.0; 51.3% men), 746 (61.4%) were fully vaccinated. In multivariate analysis, being vaccinated was associated with lower 28 -day mortality (Odds Ratio [95% Confidence Interval] (OR [95CI]) = 0.50 [0.32-0.77]), intensive care unit admission (OR [95CI] = 0.40 [0.26-0.62]), and oxygen requirement (OR [95CI] = 0.34 [0.25-0.46]), independent of age and comorbidities. When co-analysing these patients with Omicron infection with 948 patients with Delta infection from a study we recently conducted, Omicron infection was associated with lower 28-day mortality (OR [95CI] = 0.53 [0.37-0.76]), intensive care unit admission (OR [95CI] = 0.19 [0.12-0.28]), and oxygen requirements (OR [95CI] = 0.50 [0.38-0.67]), independent of age, comorbidities, and vaccination status.Discussion: Originally designed vaccines have remained effective on the severity of Omicron SARS-CoV-2 infection. Omicron is associated with a lower risk of severe forms, independent of vaccination and pa-tient characteristics. Guillaume Beraud, Clin Microbiol Infect 2023;29:642 (c) 2022 The Author(s).

There are concerns that approaches such as limited personal visits to doctors, avoidance of hospitals, and restrictions on nonemergency surgical procedures during the coronavirus disease of 2019 pandemic pose a threat to those with diabetic foot problems, including diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), ischemia, and infection, resulting in increased limb loss and mortality. Methods: This multicenter, retrospective, cross-sectional study was conducted in 14 tertiary care hospitals from various regions of Turkey. A total of 1,394 patient records were evaluated, 794 of which were between January 1, 2019, and January 30, 2020 (prepandemic [Pre-P]), and 605 of which were between February 1, 2020, and February 28, 2021 (pandemic period [PP]). Results: During the PP, diabetic foot patient follow-up decreased by 23.8%. In addition, the number of hospitalizations attributable to DFU has decreased significantly during the PP (P = .035). There was no difference between the groups regarding patient demographics, medical history, DFU severity, biochemical and radiologic findings, or comorbidities, but the mean duration of diabetes mellitus years was longer in patients in the Pre-P than in those in the PP (15.1 years versus 13.7 years). There was no difference between the two groups in terms of major complications such as limb loss and mortality, but infection recurrence was higher in the PP than in the Pre-P (12.9% versus 11.4%; P < .05). The prevalence of nonfermentative gram-negative bacteria as causative agents in DFU infections increased during the PP. In particular, the prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas spp. increased statistically during the PP. Conclusions: The rapid adaptation to the pandemic with the measures and changes developed by the multidisciplinary diabetic foot care committees may be the reasons why there was no increase in complications because of DFU during the pandemic in Turkey.Letter Medical Education During the Covid-19 Pandemic: Experience From a Newly Established Medical School(Springer, 2020) Tulek,N.; Gonullu,U.; Basic Sciences[No abstract available]
