Introduction Therapeutic options for obesity have trended toward bariatric surgeries in recent decades. Bariatric surgery involves different procedures that can be restrictive, malabsorptive, or a combination of both. Malabsorptive procedures lead to weight loss by intestinal segment bypass that reduces food absorption. Restrictive procedures lead to weight loss by restricting food intake (1). Restrictive procedures include laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG), laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), and vertical band gastroplasty. Malabsorptive procedures inBariatric surgery is the most effective therapeutic option for long-term weight loss among patients with morbid obesity. Nutrition after bariatric surgery is a very specialized condition. The most severe complications that can develop after bariatric surgery are nutritional deficiencies and the diseases related to them, such as anemia and osteoporosis. Screening associated with nutritional deficiencies should be performed preoperatively to optimize the postoperative outcomes and the nutritional status of patients. Bariatric surgeries such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (BPD-DS) reduce nutrient absorption. Moreover, bariatric surgery can exacerbate preexisting nutritional deficiencies. Patients who have undergone bariatric surgery should be followed up for common micronutrient deficiencies and protein-calorie malnutrition. There are gaps in the postoperative follow-up of these patients. This review aimed to focus on the postoperative nutritional strategies and nutritional complications in patients who have undergone bariatric surgery.

Objective: To identify and analyze the 100 most cited articles on thyroid cancer since 1975, thus, allowing their easy access for researchers in this field. Material and Methods: This study is a bibliometric analysis of research publications acquired from the Web of Science database. We evaluated the first 100 articles receiving the most citations in the field of thyroid cancer since 1975. Then, all research publications were compiled using journal information into different categories based on the study type, country, research centers, authors, and publication dates. All data were reported as percentages, numbers, and graphs. Results: In this study, we listed 8,608 full-length English-language articles. Our findings showed that the most cited article received 4,325 citations to date, while the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology Metabolism, a Thyroid journal, received the most number of citations (n:6531), publishing seventeen of the articles from our study. Also, thirty-two articles were from the field of oncology. The country with the most number of publications was the United States of America (n=70) in the years 2005, 2008, and 2009 (n=8). Conclusion: It is essential to acknowledge the top-cited articles in thyroid cancer since they contain essential information, research, and advances in its treatment. Our analysis of the first 100 articles included the most important papers with the most significant impact on thyroid cancer research. In our list, we acknowledged the most productive authors and institutions along with their research articles.

Anti-insulin antibody syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder that is characterized by severe hypoglycemia, elevated blood insulin level, insulin autoantibodies, and the absence of pancreas islet cell pathology or exogenous insulin exposure. Alpha-lipoic acid is a sulfhydrylcontaining compound that is used to treat diabetic peripheral neuropathy and was first reported as a cause of anti-insulin antibody syndrome in Japan in 2003. In the literature, 17 cases with anti-insulin antibody syndrome following alpha-lipoic acid use have been reported from Japan, along with one case from Turkey, two from Korea, and seven cases from Italy. In this article, we present three cases with anti-insulin antibody syndrome developed after alpha-lipoic acid use. Case 1: A 72-year-old male patient was observed to have lost consciousness at home. This patient had no history of diabetes mellitus, diabetic medication, or insulin use. The patient complained of tiredness, palpitations, and sweating that began 3-4 h after eating but regressed after eating during the past month. The patient had a history of diagnosis with lumbar disk hernia two months ago and was using alpha-lipoic acid (600 mg). Case 2: A 67-year-old diabetic female patient using alpha-lipoic acid (600 mg) following the diagnosis of diabetic peripheral neuropathy. She complained of shivering and sweating two to three hours after a meal that started after starting alpha-lipoic acid therapy. Case 3: A 46-year-old male patient complained of fatigue, palpitations, and sweating for the last three weeks. Seven weeks ago, he started using alpha-lipoic acid (600 mg) after being diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. The patients were diagnosed with anti-insulin antibody syndrome secondary to alpha-lipoic acid use, following which their alpha-lipoic therapy was discontinued. Alpha-lipoic acid is widely used in the treatment of diabetic peripheral neuropathy, nutritional support, or as an anti-aging agent. However, it should be noted that its use may cause anti-insulin antibody syndrome in genetically predisposed people.

Objective: With the increase in the prevalence of diabetes and associated complications, most of the healthcare expenditure is due to treatments of diabetes complications. This study evaluated the determinants affecting the total treatment cost in hospitalized patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFU), an important complication of diabetes. Material and Methods: Factors affecting cost in 300 cases of hospitalization due to DFU were analyzed retrospectively. Hospital invoices were examined, and incurred cost of each patient was calculated in Turkish lira and then converted into US dollars at the exchange rate on the date of hospitalization, considering the number of days of hospitalization. Results: Among the 300 included patients, the ratio of male/female participants was 1.94. The mean age of the patients was 62.6±11 years. Hemoglobin A1c mean was determined as 9.5±2.4%. The average hospitalization time was 17.8±12.9 days. When the average cost was analyzed according to Wagner phases, the average cost increased as the stage of the disease. The factor that most affected the cost was hospitalization cost (p=0.001, r=3.24). Diagnostic imaging tests affected the total cost the most (p=0.001, r=2.52) after hospitalization. Conclusion: The cost of hospitalization was the most important factor affecting the total cost in the analysis of DFU. Therefore, taking precautions before the advancement of ulcer stage and treatment at an early stage is expected to reduce the treatment cost. In addition, reducing the duration of hospital stay will be effective in reducing the cost of DFU treatment.
