Objective: Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a rare genetic disease that can have several intellectual and developmental disabilities. Here, we aim to examine psychopathology in children with FXS and investigate the relationship between children's psychosocial well-being and socio-demographic factors, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) comorbidity, and the type and level of caregivers' perceived social support. Materials and Method: Twenty-six children aged 5-18 years with FXS and 26 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC) were included. DSM-5-based clinical interviews were conducted with all participants. We also collected parent ratings of health-related quality of life indexes and perceived social support levels and types. Results: The mean age of children with FXS was 10.9 ± 3.5 years, and the mean age of healthy comparisons (HC, n= 26) was 11.8 ± 2.6 years. In the FXS group, 84.6% had comorbid psychiatric disorders, and 65.3% had intellectual disability. FXS group displayed lower psychosocial and total quality of life scores than the HC group. Also, there was significant positive correlations between childrens' psychosocial well-being and "significant others" (rp = 0.502, p = 0.009) and total perceived support scores (rp = 0.448, p = 0.022). The most influential factor related to the psychosocial well-being in children with FXS was ASD comorbidity (F= 30.6, R2, 0.543, p<0.001). Conclusion: Providing support to mothers of children with FXS may positively affect the children's health outcomes, especially psychosocial well-being.
目的:脆性X染色体综合征(FXS)是一种罕见的遗传性疾病，可导致多种智力和发育障碍。本研究旨在研究FXS儿童的心理病理，探讨儿童心理社会健康与社会人口统计学因素、自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)共病、照顾者感知社会支持类型和水平的关系。材料与方法:纳入26例5-18岁FXS患儿和26例年龄与性别匹配的健康对照(HC)。对所有参与者进行基于dsm -5的临床访谈。我们还收集了父母对健康相关生活质量指数和感知社会支持水平和类型的评分。结果:FXS患儿的平均年龄为10.9±3.5岁，健康对照(HC, n= 26)的平均年龄为11.8±2.6岁。在FXS组中，84.6%患有共病性精神障碍，65.3%患有智力残疾。FXS组的社会心理和总生活质量得分低于HC组。此外，儿童心理社会幸福感与“重要他人”(rp = 0.502, p = 0.009)和总感知支持得分(rp = 0.448, p = 0.022)之间存在显著正相关。影响FXS患儿心理社会健康的最主要因素是ASD合并症(F= 30.6, R2, 0.543, p<0.001)。结论:为FXS儿童的母亲提供支持可能会对儿童的健康状况产生积极影响，尤其是心理社会健康。

Aim: It was aimed to compare the clinical and radiological results of total hip arthroplasty performed with the anterolateral approach with the literature. Material and Method: 65 patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty with anterolateral approach between 2016-2021 were included. Preoperative and postoperative functional status evaluations of the patients were performed using the Harris hip score. In the clinical evaluation of the patients, thigh pain, wound infection, length of hospital stay, body mass index, duration of surgery and complications were also evaluated. In the radiological evaluation, the acetabular and femoral relaxation zones, the presence and amount of vertical and horizontal migration of the acetabular component, the presence and amount of femoral vertical migration, the position of the femoral component, the femoral dorr classification, the angle of inclination of the acetabular component and the presence of heterotrophic ossification were examined. Results: Of the patients, 29 (44.6%) were male and 36 (55.4%) were female. The mean age of the patients was 61.65 and the mean follow-up period was 40.2 months. Considering the diagnoses of the patients, THA was applied to 51 (70.8%) patients for coxarthrosis, 14 (19.4%) for avascular necrosis, 5 (6.9%) patients for fractures, and 2 (2.8%) patients for septic arthritis. The mean preoperative Harris Hip Score of the patients was 34.2 (18.1-59.9). The mean postoperative Harris Hip score was 88.5 (68.8-96). When the postoperative Harris Hip Score of the patients was evaluated, 53 (73.6%) were evaluated as excellent results, 18 (25%) as very good results, and 1 (1.4%) as good result. Findings: In our study, the results of total hip arthroplasty performed with the anterolateral approach were found to be a successful and satisfactory surgery when performed with appropriate indications and planning.

Objective: Celiac is a small intestine disease that occurs in susceptible individuals with a cellular and humoral immunological response that develops against gluten, a cereal protein. There are few studies evaluating the audiovestibular system in celiac patients. This study aims to evaluate audiovestibular findings in celiac patients. Materials and Methods: 40 patients with celiac disease and 40 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this sudy. Each subject underwent a neurotologic examination including pure tone audiometry (PTA), Transient Evoked Otoacoustic Emission (TEOAE) with 1000 Hz, 1500 Hz, 2000 Hz, 3000 Hz and 4000 Hz, Videonystagmography (VNG), and binaural bithermal caloric test. It was evaluated whether the test results indicated significant differences between the celiac patient and control group. Results: Sensorineural hearing loss was detected in the right and left ear of the 7 patients. In the pure tone audiometry (PTA) test, there was no statistically significant difference between celiac patients and controls in both air conducted and bone conducted hearing thresholds (p=0,389 for the right ear, p=0,083 for the left ear). Speech reception thresholds of celiac patients were significantly higher than the controls (p= 0,000 for right ear, p=0,001 for the left ear) While OAE response was obtained in the right ear of 24 patients and in the left ear of 23 patients; OAE response was obtained in all of the control group. In the OAE test, in response to 2000 Hz stimuli, there was no significant difference in the right ear responses, although there was a lower signal-to-noise ratio in patients compared to the control group. At all other frequencies, a statistically significant lower signal-to-noise ratio was found in the patient group. Statistically significant pathological differences were found in spontaneaus nystagmus, gaze, saccade, smooth pursuit, optokinetic nystagmus and caloric tests in celiac patients compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Pure tone audiometry, otoacoustic emision, oculomotor and caloric tests findings indicated that auditory system, periphral and central vestibular system may be affected in individuals with celiac disease.

Study Design: A prospective clinical cohort study. Objective: In this study, it was aimed to examine the effects of metabolic syndrome, which affects many organs, on the autonomic nervous system and to observe the changes after treatment. Materials and Methods: Heart rate variability values of 101 metabolic syndrome patients who were treated at the Kocaeli University Cardiology Outpatient Clinic included in the study. All patients were offered lifestyle change suggestions in addition to their medical treatments. At the end of three months, the heart rate variability parameters of the patients were re-evaluated. Results: Heart rate variability values were found to be significantly lower in metabolic syndrome patients compared to the control group. It was observed that the heart rate variability values improved significantly in half of the patients who applied the given treatment with lifestyle changes. A decrease in heart rate change parameters was found in the group that did not implement lifestyle changes compared to the beginning of the study. Conclusions: Autonomic nervous system functions evaluated by heart rate variability decreased in patients with metabolic syndrome, and the treatment and lifestyle changes had a positive effect on these parameters.

In recent years, there has been an increase in the frequency of use of food additives and colorants to extend the life of food and to color it. Excessive consumption of these additives can lead to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and learning disorder, especially in children. Uncontrolled additives whose dosage is not specified can cause an allergic reaction, cause damage to the neurological system and cause cancer. There are not many studies showing the dose-dependent effect of carminic acid. It was aimed to determine the dose-dependent changes of carminic acid, a food additive, in liver, kidney, blood and brain tissues (hippocampus, brain, brain stem) and to investigate the effects of these doses on hyperactivity behaviorally. In our study, dose-dependent effects of 500 mg, 1500 mg and 3000 mg carminic acid (CA) used as a colorant in hippocampus, brain, brain stem, liver, kidney and blood samples were investigated. 32 Wistar albino male rats weighing 150-200 g were divided into 4 groups as control, CA-500, CA-1500 and CA-3000. The locomotor activities of the rats were evaluated in the open field test, and their anxiety behaviors were evaluated in the elevated plus maze test. Carminic acid levels in hippocampus, brain, brain stem, liver, kidney and blood were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method. Locomotor activity and anxiety behavior test results of CA-1500 and CA-3000 groups were increased compared to the control group. In the results of HPLC analysis, 500 mg, 1500 mg and 3000 mg doses administered to rats were not detectable in hippocampus, brain and brain stem tissues, while a dose-dependent increase was found in liver, kidney and blood samples (p<0.5). It was concluded that since carminic acid could not cross the blood-brain barrier, it was not detected in hippocampus, brain and brain stem tissues, and increased dose-dependently in peripheral tissues such as liver, kidney and blood. Although it cannot be detected in the brain, it has been observed that hyperactivity, which may increase locomotor activity and anxiety, may lead to behavioral changes.

Aim: The aim of the study was to analyze the effect of probiotics on quality of life and depressive symptoms in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and moderate or severe depressive mood. Materials and Methods: Patients diagnosed with diarrhea-predominant IBS using ROMA IV criteria and Bristol Stool Scale and moderate or severe depressive symptoms using the Beck Depression Inventory comprised the study participants. The patients were randomized and divided into two groups as the medication only group and the medication+probiotic group. IBS 36 questionnaire and Beck's Depression Inventory were administered to all patients in the first and second groups and the scores were recorded. Results: The change in IBS-36 scores from the beginning to the 10th week was significant in both groups (p<0.001). According to IBS-36 the median change from the beginning to the 10th week was 32 for the medication group, this difference was 48 for the medication+probiotic group. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). The change in Beck’s Depression Inventory scores from the beginning to the 10th week was significant in both the medication group and the medication+probiotic group (p<0.001). According to the Beck’s Depression Inventory the median change from the beginning to the 10th week was 7 for the medication group, this difference was 9.5 for the medication+probiotic group. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: In the treatment of diarrhea-predominant IBS patients, the use of probiotics together with classical drugs will improve quality of life by reducing both gastrointestinal symptoms and psychological symptoms.

Materials and Methods: Patients diagnosed with diarrhea-predominant IBS using ROMA IV criteria and Bristol Stool Scale and moderate or severe depressive symptoms using the Beck Depression Inventory comprised the study participants. The patients were randomized and divided into two groups as the medication only group and the medication+probiotic group. IBS 36 questionnaire and Beck's Depression Inventory were administered to all patients in the first and second groups and the scores were recorded. Results: The change in IBS-36 scores from the beginning to the 10th week was significant in both groups (p<0.001). According to IBS-36 the median change from the beginning to the 10th week was 32 for the medication group, this difference was 48 for the medication+probiotic group. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). The change in Beck’s Depression Inventory scores from the beginning to the 10th week was significant in both the medication group and the medication+probiotic group (p<0.001). According to the Beck’s Depression Inventory the median change from the beginning to the 10th week was 7 for the medication group, this difference was 9.5 for the medication+probiotic group. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.001). Conclusion: In the treatment of diarrhea-predominant IBS patients, the use of probiotics together with classical drugs will improve quality of life by reducing both gastrointestinal symptoms and psychological symptoms.","PeriodicalId":8248,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Medical Research","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89312956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
