Background: Burns continue to be a serious global public health problem all over the world, especially in developing countries. Materials and Methods: The age, gender, cause of injury, and total body surface area (TBSA) of the burn, complications, and mortality rate of 1,038 patients who were hospitalized in our burn center between January 1, 2010, and January 1, 2020, were analyzed. Results: The burned surface area was greater in boys than in girls. The mean burned body surface area for all patients was 9.2 ± 6.35, and the mortality rate was 1.45%. Hot liquids, such as tea, hot milk, hot water, and oily food, were the causes of burns in 84.7% of the patients. Hot objects, hot melted nylon, hot tandoor and embers, and hot asphalt accounted for 7.7% of the burns. Moreover, flame burns, electrical burns and frostbite, and other burn causes accounted for 5.6%, 1.2 %, and 0.8% of burn injuries, respectively. Conclusions: In our region, pediatric burns occurred mostly in boys under the age of three and in children whose parents had low educational levels living in rural areas. We believe that the burn prevention program should be adjusted according to these results.

Focal acral hyperkeratosis (FAH) is a rare genodermatosis. FAH is usually observed in the second or third decades of life, and it is a type of palmoplantar keratoderma, a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by abnormal incrassation of the palms and soles. Although it is an autosomal dominant inheritance, it could also be sporadic. It is also known as a rare variant of Costa's Acrokeratoelastoidosis (AKE). Its etiology is not known clearly and there is no effective treatment. In the present study, a 43-year-old recently diagnosed FAH case is presented due to its rarity and frequent confusion with AKE based on current literature

Monosodium glutamat (MSG) 1800’lü yıllardan beri lezzet artırıcı katkı maddesi olarak, işlenmiş ve paketlenmiş tuzlu veya tatlı gıdalarda kullanılmaktadır. Yapılan birçok çalışma MSG kullanımının çok sayıda yapısal ve fonksiyonel bozukluklara yol açabileceğini ortaya çıkarmıştır. Son yıllarda MSG kullanımının çok artması gıda güvenliği konusunda endişelerinde artmasına neden olmuştur.

Objective: The vaccine manufactured by Sinovac has been licensed according to the emergency use authorization program in Turkey. Inherently, this product has many shortcomings regarding safety issues. The aim was to explore the potential adverse reactions of the vaccine. Materials and methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study via a 24-item self-administered questionnaire was conducted among healthcare professionals. Results: Of 133 persons, 51 subjects (38%) experienced adverse events after the first dose of the vaccine. The most common adverse events were fatigue, headache, diarrhea, and fever. Ninety five percent of the subjects (n=126) had the second dose of the vaccine and only 43 subjects (26%) described adverse events. These events were similar to those seen after the first dose. In one person, acute hypertension elevation was considered to be a serious adverse event. A female dominance regarding the frequency of adverse events was, solely, detected after the first dose administration. Conclusion: Although there is a significant amount of adverse events in response to the vaccine, these cannot be identified as serious events. Therefore, this vaccine seems to be safety enough for those under the threat of the coronavirus disease 2019.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate surgical site infection patients developing saphenous vein graft incision site infection after isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery performed in the cardiovascular surgery clinic of our hospital in the last 12 years to reveal the causative microorganisms, risk factors, and clinical characteristics. Material and Methods: A total of 34 surgical site infection patients (23 females, 11 males; mean age 68.0±9.0 years; range 51-86 years) who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery in the cardiovascular surgery clinic of our hospital between March 2009 and November 2020 and who postoperatively developed saphenous vein graft incision site infection were included in the study. The patients' demographic data, underlying diseases, and preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative risk factors were analyzed retrospectively. Results: In all isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgeries performed over a period of about 12 years, the rate of saphenous vein graft incision site surgical site infection was found to be 0.8%. Of these, 23 (67.6%) were evaluated as superficial incisional surgical site infection and 11 (32.4%) as deep incisional surgical site infection. In the patients who developed surgical site infection, the parameters of age, female sex, obesity, diabetes mellitus, smoking, emergency surgery, use of more than 1 saphenous vein graft, prolonged operation, cardiopulmonary bypass, and aortic clamp durations, intraoperative blood transfusion, length of stay in the intensive care unit, use of inotropes, and total length of hospital stay were all found to be significant. The microorganisms in purulent discharge cultures consisted of Gram-negative bacteria in 18 (53%), Gram-positive bacteria in 12 (35.3%), and fungi in 1 (2.9%). No pathogenic microorganism growth was observed in 5 (14.7%) patients. In the patients with surgical site infection, coagulase-negative staphylococci (17.6%) and Escherichia coli (17.6%) were the most frequently isolated agents. Conclusion: Particular attention should be paid to surgical site infection in patients undergoing a cardiovascular surgery intervention. It should be noted that post coronary artery bypass graft surgery surgical site infection can be reduced by determining its risk factors, modifying surgical techniques, and postoperative close monitoring of patients. Follow-up and personal care are crucial after discharge and an empirical treatment approach should be determined when an infection occurs, taking into account that coagulase-negative staphylococci and E. coli were the two leading infectious agents in our hospital.
