Publication Clinical features and short-term outcomes of bariatric surgery in morbidly obese patients: Institutional experience at a rural hospital(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2021-03-01) Şenol, Kazım; Ferhatoğlu, Murat Ferhat; Kocaeli, Aysen Akkurt; Dündar, Halit Ziya; Kaya, Ekrem; ŞENOL, KAZIM; DÜNDAR, HALİT ZİYA; KAYA, EKREM; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Genel Cerrahi Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-9562-4195; FVY-2168-2022; EWI-3634-2022; AAG-7319-2021Objective: To prospectively evaluate the postoperative morbidity, mortality, and weight loss evolution of patients who underwent a bariatric procedure during 1 year of follow-up.Methods: Since July 2016, a total of 101 patients' data have been prospectively registered in a database. Comorbidities, operating time, hospital stay, early and late complications rate, and weight loss evolution after 1 year of follow-up were recorded.Results: The mean age was 38.41 +/- 11.05 years with a mean body mass index (BMI) of 49.02 +/- 5.89 kg/m(2) (range 38-67). Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) was performed in 93 patients (92.07%) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RNYGB) in 8 patients (7.92%). Thirty-day morbidity rate was 7.92% (8/101). Within a mean 9.32 +/- 2.25 (range 1-19) months follow-up time, mean percent of the excess of weight loss of 1st, 6th, and 12th months were 22.7 +/- 6.1, 67.2 +/- 11.2, and 81.4 +/- 10.5, respectively. Diabetes (n = 38, 37.6%), hypertension (n = 13, 12.9%), and obstructive sleep apnea (n = 5, 4.9%) were resolved in 76%, 68.4%, and 100% of the patients, respectively (p < 0.001).Conclusions: LSG and RNYGB are safe and highly effective, particularly in patients with a BMI >50 kg/m(2). Both techniques have been presented with better clinical outcomes regarding significant comorbidity resolution in the early evolution of weight loss.Publication Diabetes mellitus-mediated MALAT1 expression induces glioblastoma aggressiveness(Turkish Neurosurgical Soc, 2023-01-01) Kocaeli, Aysen Akkurt; Aksoy, Seçil A.

Data for p53 and Ki67 immunohistochemical staining of the tumors and blood HbA1c levels of patients with DM were retrospectively collected. MALAT1 expression was assessed using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.RESULTS: The coexistence of GB and DM induced the nuclear expression of p53 and Ki67 compared with GB only. MALAT1 expression was higher in GB-DM tumors than in GB only tumors. The expression of MALAT1 and HbA1c levels were positively correlated. Additionally, MALAT1 was positively correlated with tumoral p53 and Ki67. The disease-free survival of patients with GB-DM with high MALAT1 expression was shorter than that of those diagnosed with GB only and with a lower MALAT1 expression.CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that one of the mechanisms of the facilitating effect of DM on GB tumor aggressiveness is via MALAT1 expression.
