These parameters therefore cannot be used as markers for inflammation or inflammation severity in patients with RAS. ©Copyright 2020 by the Atatürk University School of Medicine - Available online at www.eurasianjmed.com.Objective The serratus intercostal plane block (SIPB) is a recently defined interfascial plane block. The oblique subcostal transversus abdominis plane block (OSTAP) is another type of interfascial plane block, and it is also used as a part of multimodal analgesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). In this retrospective study, we evaluated the effects of the bilateral OSTAP and a combination of the right SIPB and bilateral rectus sheath block (RSB) on the postoperative pain and analgesia requirement in patients undergoing LC. Materials and Methods Data of the patients who underwent LC between May 2018 and November 2018 were evaluated retrospectively. Postoperative pain was evaluated using the numeric rating scale (NRS), and 24-hour tramadol consumption and rescue analgesia requirements were compared. Results Bilateral OSTAP was applied to 47 patients, and SIPB+RSB was applied to 25 patients. Postoperative pain scores were similar between the two groups. In the first 24 hours, tramadol requirement in the SIPB+RSB group was significantly lower than in the OSTAP block group (p less then 0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the NRS averages at different time frames between the two block groups. Conclusion We found that when SIPB is used as a part of multimodal analgesia in a combination with RSB in LS, it improves the quality of analgesia and decreases the analgesic requirement compared to patients undergoing a bilateral OSTAP block. Randomized controlled trials are necessary to compare the effects of SIPB alone and in a combination with other blocks in LC. ©Copyright 2020 by the Atatürk University School of Medicine - Available online at www.eurasianjmed.com.Objective Sarcopenia, a geriatric syndrome, is an indicator of poor prognosis in elderly inpatients. In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of sarcopenia on mortality in elderly patients. Materials and Methods Mobile/immobile geriatric inpatients, treated in the internal medicine ward between February and November 2018, were included in the study between Days 2 and 7 of hospitalization. The patients' fat-free mass (FFM) was measured by bioimpedance. The FFM index (FFMI) (kg/m2) was determined by dividing fat-free mass by body surface area (FFM/BSA). Sarcopenia was defined as a FFMI value at least two standard deviations below the gender-specific mean of normal young adults. Results The study included 200 geriatric inpatients; 96 (48.0%) were men, and the mean age was 74.49±6.32 years. Sarcopenia was detected in 28 (14%) of the patients. Diabetes mellitus was associated with a significantly lower sarcopenia prevalence (p=0.006). The risk of sarcopenia was 9.046 times higher in malnourished patients. The sarcopenia group had more deaths (p=0.012). Conclusion Sarcopenia in geriatric inpatients increased the length of hospital stay and mortality. Our findings may guide future studies examining the relationship between sarcopenia and mortality among elderly inpatients in other hospitals. ©Copyright 2020 by the Atatürk University School of Medicine - Available online at www.eurasianjmed.com.Objective If systemic inflammation in relation with obesity causes asthma, the detection of increased airway inflammation among obese individuals who do not have any respiratory symptoms can be also beneficial in indentifying obese patients who are at risk of developing asthma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the systemic and airway inflammation of asymptomatic obese and non-obese individuals. Materials and Methods Obese and non-obese individuals with no respiratory symptoms were included. Inflammatory biomarkers such as C-reactive protein (CRP), exhaled breath condensate (EBC) interleukin-6 (IL-6), EBC leukotriene B-4 (LTB-4), and EBC nitric oxide (NO) levels of obese and non-obese individuals were determined. Results Forty-five obese individuals (body mass index [BMI]≥30) and 31 non-obese individuals (BMI≤25) as a control group were included in this study. The mean age of the obese group (38.7±11.4 years) was significantly higher than the one of the non-obese group (29.5±8.6 years; p less then 0.001).ity School of Medicine - Available online at www.eurasianjmed.com.Objective Primary acquired nasolacrimal duct obstruction (PANDO) is an idiopathic narrowing of the nasolacrimal duct caused by chronic inflammation and consecutive stenosis of the nasal tissue. In the current investigation, we aimed to study the etiopathogenic role of sinonasal anatomical abnormalities and paranasal inflammatory pathologies in PANDO. Materials and Methods Computed tomography (CT) findings of 459 patients who were diagnosed with unilateral PANDO between April 2009 and March 2017 were compared with that of a control group, which comprised 200 subjects without nasolacrimal duct obstruction who had been referred to the ear nose throat (ENT) clinic with the complaint of vertigo and headache. A radiologist (R. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/2-deoxy-d-glucose.html S.) masked to the clinical situation of participants retrospectively examined their CT findings. Results The prevalence of deviated nasal septum was found to be strongly associated with PANDO incidence (55.3% on PANDO side of patients vs. 28.3% among controls; p less then 0.001).

Although ESP block has been reported to provide effective analgesia in the thoracic region, its effect in lumbar region still unclear. In this study we aimed to showed our successful experience with lumbar ESP block as a main anesthetic technique in fifteen high risk elderly patients undergoing hip surgery with mild propofol sedation. Materials and Methods In this observational study high risk elderly fifteen patients received lumbar ESP block as a main anesthetic technique with mild propofol sedation. 40 mL of local anesthetic mixture (20 mL bupivacaine 0.5%, 10 mL lidocaine 2%, and 10 mL normal saline) was administered between the erector spinae muscles and transverse process at the level of the 4th lumbar vertebra. Also we demonstrate magnetic resonance images and discuss the anatomic basis of lumbar ESP block.
