Objective: Childhood vaccinations have been a milestone in the control of infectious diseases. However, even in countries that offer both free and equal access to vaccines, cases of vaccine hesitancy have increased from year to year. Parents are the decision-makers in childhood immunizations. The aim of the study was to determine the attitudes of parents about childhood vaccinations and to define the factors affecting these attitudes. Material and Methods: This is a descriptive study. The universe of the research consisted of mothers living in Nevşehir province. The Snowball sampling method was used to determine the participants. The snowball sampling method was used to determine the participants. Data collection forms (Google Form) prepared online were collected between 19.06.2021 and 20.11.2021 with 347 mothers who have children between the ages of 0-2 who agreed to participate in the study. Results: 58.5% (n= 203) of the participants in the study were between the ages of 18-30, 39.5% (n= 137) were university graduates, 59.7% (n= 207) were not working, 51.0% (n= 203) were unemployed (n= 177) had two children, and 30.7% (n= 197) of their children were in the 7-11 month age group. The mean total score of the mothers from the anti-vac- cination scale was found to be 50.9 ± 9.17. In the scores obtained from the sub-dimensions of the scale, the highest score was obtained from the “anti-vaccine” sub-dimension with 20.1 ± 5.01. Conclusion: As a result of study, it was determined that the parents had moderate anti-vaccination. Providing parents with basic information about vaccines and vaccine preventable diseases can help reduce opposi- tion to mandatory vaccination by reinforcing the safety and importance of routine childhood vaccinations.

Objective: In this case series, we aimed to examine the changes in lymphocyte subgroups in children diagnosed with the multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) during the acute phase and in the first month after treatment. Material and Methods: Ethics committee approval was received for the study from the Ethics Committee of Ondokuz Mayıs University patient data were analyzed from medical records in an electronic database. Initial immunological evaluations of our first five patients diagnosed with MIS-C were made, steroid and IVIG treatments were given to the patients, and lymphocyte subgroups were evaluated for the second time in the first month for control purposes. Results: In MIS-C cases, it was observed that lymphopenia was severe in the acute period, CD3 T cells decreased, the ratio of 2:1 between cytotoxic T cells and helper T cells was impaired, B cells increased proportionally, and NK cells were normal or decreased. When we evaluated MIS-C cases with the control lymphocyte subgroup in the first month, it was observed that lymphopenia improved and CD3 T cells increased proportionally, and active T cells decreased to normal values in the first month after treatment. On the other hand, while naive B cells decreased, non-switching and switching B cells increased and NK cells decreased. Conclusion: While COVID-19 is an acute infection, MIS-C is associated with cytokine storm induced by the acute infection. Immunologic assessment of MIS-C cases is considered important since the condition causes immune dysregulation in the host immune system. Lymphopenia, increased B cell count, reversal of the CD4/CD8 ratio, and increased active T cell count may be beneficial in the early diagnosis of MIS-C. Since it is thought that the cytokine storm causes complications in MIS-C, immediate administration of IVIG treatment is considered essential. Although it was demonstrated that the disease manifests with marked cellular changes, there is still a need for further studies.

Tuberculosis is a health problem that preserves its importance in devel-oping countries and populations with low socioeconomic means. The treatment process is long-term, laborious, costly and has high morbidity and mortality with many complications. The most important step to get rid against this disease is to prevent contamination. For this purpose, routine vaccination and chemoprophylaxis of the contacts are of great importance. In this case report, while examining different tuberculosis presentations in the pediatric population, we emphasized the importance of vaccination and screening the households that the index pa-tient is in contact with, the treatment of patients, and the importance of chemoprophylaxis in contacts

The liver can be damaged due to the virus's direct cytotoxic effect, immune-mediated damage, medication side effects, stasis due to myocardial damage, hypoxia, and ischemic damage due to hypoperfusion (6). The laboratory results were as follows: hemoglobin 14.3 g/dL, leukocytes 6.2 109/L, platelets 175 109/L (200-445 109), CRP 0.005 g/L (0-0.005), procalcitonin 0.04 pg/L, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) 393 U/L (0-46), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) 726 U/L (0-32), total bilirubin 0.5 mg/dL, direct bilirubin 0.2 mg/dL, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) 548 U/L, gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) 35 U/L. The biopsy, however, showed no virus particles. Since the patient had no known underlying disease, pathological findings in the liver were thought to be related to SARS-CoV-2 infection or the drugs used (11). According to reports, an increase in liver enzymes has no prognostic significance.

Lymphopenia, Increased B cell count, reversal of the CD4/CD8 ratio, and Increased active T cell count may be beneficial In the early diagnosis of MIS-C. Since It Is thought that the cytokine storm causes complications In MIS-C, Immediate administration of IVIG treatment Is considered essential. The disease was considered a new multisystem inflammatory syndrome, and with the increase in awareness, it has been reported more frequently in children (MIS-C) in Europe and the United States (2,3). Since the disease is thought to cause complications by leading to cytokine storms, immediate administration of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) treatment is deemed important, and it is also essential to emphasize that IVIG treatment leads to marked cellular changes. Case 2 A nine-year-old male patient presented with fever, abdominal pain, headache, and diarrhea that had been present for five days, followed by a rash, conjunctivitis, and cervical lymphadenopathy. [...]the patient was considered to have atypical Kawasaki disease. According to a review, the most common signs and symptoms reported during MIS-C consisted of abdominal pain (61.9%), vomiting (61.8%), skin rash (55.3%), diarrhea (53.2%), hypotension (49.5%), and conjunctivitis (48.4%), and particularly gastrointestinal (90.9%), cardiovascular (86.5%), or dermatological or mucocutaneous (70.9%) involvement (2).

Over time, there was swelling in the vaccination area and gradually increased. There was no consanguinity be-tween mother and father. A sibling of the mother was lost at the age of one, for unknown reasons. The patient’s body tem-perature was normal. On examination, redness and fluctuating swelling with a diameter of about 3 cm was observed in the left deltoid region, where BCG vaccination was administered. Other physical examination findings of the patient were normal. The abscess drained spontaneously shortly after examination. Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex PCR was positive in the drainage material. The strain evaluated to be Mycobacterium bovis from the BCG vaccine was susceptible to isoniazid and rifampin.
