37. Circulating IL-6, clusterin and irisin in obese subjects with different grades of obesity: association with insulin resistance and sexual dimorphism
ABSTRACT Objective: There are discrepancies about the relationship of IL-6, clusterin and irisin with obesity and obesity associated insulin resistance and also about their sexual dimorphism. This study aimed at evaluating the circulating levels of IL-6, clusterin and irisin in obese subjects of both sexes who had different grades of obesity and examining t

38. Comparison of Del Nido Cardioplegia and Blood Cardioplegia in Terms of Development of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Undergoing Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Abstract Objective: Del Nido cardioplegia (DNC) has been used in pediatric cardiac surgery for many years with a single dose application and its usage in adult cardiac surgery has been increasing in recent years, with results being published. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of DNC on the development of postoperative atrial fibrillation (Po

39. Combined effects of nutritional status on long-term mortality in patients with non-st segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention
SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of controlling nutritional status (CONUT) index, geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) scores in predicting the long-term prognosis of patients with non-ST-elevated myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) who underwent percutaneous coronary intervent

40. Hypoadiponectinemia as a marker of increased cardiovascular risk in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: correlation with albumin/creatinine ratio
ABSTRACT Objective: We assessed plasma adiponectin and its correlation with carotid intima-media-thickness (CIMT), as a marker of atherosclerosis, and urine albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Subjects and methods: The study included 100 Egyptian subjects (50 patients with NAFLD with no history of diab

42. Effect of Vitamin D Injection in Recurrent Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo with Vitamin D Deficiency
Abstract Introduction There have been reports indicating that patients with frequently recurring benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) had vitamin D deficiency, and some studies indicated that the treatment of severe vitamin D deficiency is effective in the reduction of the recurrence of BPPV. Objective The purpose of the present study was to examine

43. Posturographic Analysis in the Elderly with and without sensorineural Hearing Loss
Abstract Introduction Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a serious public health problem. Some evidence suggests a significant relationship between SNHL and balance disorders. The inability to maintain balance associated with SNHL while standing further increases the risk of falls among older people. Objective To investigate the association between SNHL

45. Does Tight Glucose Control During the First 24 hours of Hospitalization Reduce Scintigraphic Infarct Size in STEMI Patients?
Abstract Background Hyperglycemia at the time of admission is related to increased mortality and poor prognosis in patients diagnosed with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Objective We aimed to investigate whether tight glucose control during the first 24 hours of STEMI decreases the scintigraphic infarct size. Methods The study populat

46. Effects of testicular dysgenesis syndrome components on testicular germ cell tumor prognosis and oncological outcomes
ABSTRACT Purpose: To evaluate whether components of Testicular Dysgenesis Syndrome (TDS) affect testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) prognosis and oncological outcomes. According to the hypothesis called TDS; undescended testis, hypospadias, testicular cancer and spermatogenic disorders share the same risk factors and have a combined fetal origin. Materials a

48. Analysis of Conduction Intervals in Normal Electrophysiological Studies: Establishment of Reference Values the Brazilian Population
Abstract Background In the investigation of cardiac rhythm disorders, a normal electrophysiological (EPS) study is associated with a favorable prognosis. One of the normality criteria is established by conduction intervals within expected range. Objective To establish reference values in EPS for the intracavitary conduction intervals (PA, AH and HV) in a B
