Methods Fifty-six patients, who were admitted to the emergency clinic and diagnosed with COVID-19 infection, were included in the study. Data on clinical characteristics, inflammatory parameters and vitamin D status were recorded for each patient. All the participants had data on 25-hydroxyvitamin D status within the last 6 months prior to COVID-19 infection. Results The patients were stratified as those with vitamin D status less than 20 ng/mL and higher than 20 ng/mL. A group with vitamin D status less than 20 ng/mL had lower lymphocyte counts and lower haemoglobin levels that was statistically significant (respectively; p = 0.021, p = 0.035). Higher C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were seen in the vitamin D-deficient group (p = 0.013). It was observed that vitamin D status of the patients who required oxygen therapy were lower than those who did not require oxygen therapy, not statistically significant (p = 0.05). Patients who did not use vitamin D supplementation within 6 months prior to COVID-19 infection had more likely to be diagnosed with pneumonia (p = 0.004). Conclusion Cases with lower vitamin D status had increased inflammatory markers and worse clinical outcomes than patients with higher vitamin D status. This study suggests that vitamin D status can be used as a prognostic factor in COVID-19 patients, and vitamin D supplementation can be recommended to improve the clinical outcomes in COVID-19 infection.Publication Differences between atypical parathyroid tumors and parathyroid adenomas in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism(Springer India, 2023-09-29) Aydemir, Ensar; AYDOĞAN ÜNSAL, YASEMİN; ÖZ GÜL, ÖZEN; AYDEMİR, ENSAR; ATEŞ, COŞKUN; Ateş, Coşkun; CANDER, SONER; Cander, Soner; Saraydaroğlu, Özlem; SARAYDAROĞLU, ÖZLEM; Ersoy, Canan; ERSOY, CANAN; Ertürk, Erdinc; ERTÜRK, ERDİNÇ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Patoloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0003-4300-2965; 0000-0003-4565-9848; 0000-0002-1332-4165; AAJ-6536-2021; AAB-6671-2022; AAA-7171-2022Atypical parathyroid tumor is a rare disease that can be challenging to distinguish from parathyroid adenoma. Atypical parathyroid tumor shows some laboratory and histopathological features with parathyroid cancer. This study attempts to compare clinical, laboratory, radiologic, and histopathological characteristics in atypical parathyroid tumor and parathyroid adenoma. This was a retrospective study based on the database of eighty-two subjects who underwent surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism at a tertiary referral center between 2010 and 2021. Forty-one patients with atypical parathyroid tumor were matched by age and gender to controls with parathyroid adenoma. Clinical, laboratory, radiologic, and characteristics were obtained from the hospital database. Forty-five (54.8%) of primary hyperparathyroidism patients were symptomatic, 36 (90%) had nephrolithiasis, 6 (15%) had fracture, and 3 (7.5%) had hypercalcemic crisis. Atypical parathyroid tumor patients present with significantly increased serum calcium, parathormone, and alkaline phosphatase levels (P < .001, all). No significant difference was observed in the results of bone mineral density, T-scores, and Z-scores. The size of adenoma was significantly greater in the atypical parathyroid tumor group (24 (8.8-70) mm vs. 12 (3.8-32) mm, P = 0.005). Our study revealed that increased preoperative serum calcium, parathormone, alkaline phosphatase concentrations, and parathyroid adenoma size on ultrasound may have predicted the atypical parathyroid tumor.Publication An enflammatory marker in chronic renal failure patients: Visfatin(Galenos Yayıncılık, 2015-09-01) Ayar, Yavuz; Sayılar, Emel Işıktaş; Yavuz, Mahmut; Arslan, İsmail; Aksu, Çiğdem; Ateş, Coşkun; Pektaş, Fatih; Tüysüz, Özlem; Topal, Naile Bolca; Dirican, Melahat; Ayar, Yavuz; Sayılar, Emel Işıktaş; YAVUZ, MAHMUT; Arslan, İsmail; Aksu, Çiğdem; ATEŞ, COŞKUN; Pektas, Fatih; Tüysüz, Özlem; BOLCA TOPAL, NAİLE; Dirican, Melahat; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Nefroloji Anabilim Dalı.; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Radyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Tıbbi Biokimya Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0003-4607-9220; 0000-0002-1539-9216; 0000-0003-4565-9848; AGF-0767-2022; W-2575-2017; EHM-7377-2022; JML-0742-2023; HPQ-6488-2023; CDO-0747-2022; JDU-0150-2023; ECR-6289-2022; AAI-2327-2021; ESK-6562-2022Aim: Visfatin is a cytokine released from adipose tissue, especially in enflammation. In our study, we tried to show the relationship of visfatin levels with chronic renal failure (CRF) as an enflammatory marker.Methods: We included 50 CRF patients (28 male, 22 female) who attended Uludag University Nephrology Clinic and 31 healthy volunteers (13 male, 18 female). Visfatin levels and biochemical parameters, such as parathyroid hormone (PTH), lipid parameters, albumin, C-reactive protein (CRP), creatinine, urea, immunoglobulins, etc. were examined.Results: In CRF patients, visfatin levels were found to be significantly increased (p<0.001) and albumin, hemoglobin, body mass index (BMI) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels were decreased (p<0.001). Triglycerides (p=0.003), CPR (p=0.005), procalcitonin (p<0.001), IgG3 (p=0.003), and ferritin (p<0.001) levels were significantly higher in patient group than in control group as an enflammatory marker.Conclusion: CRF is an independent enflammatory process. Visfatin levels in patients with chronic renal failure patients are determined to be high as an indicator of enflammation.
