Considering the prevalence, incidence, and outcomes of IPF, it is important to ensure the availability and validity of biomarkers that can be used in determining the diagnosis and prognosis. In this study, we aimed to assess the relationship between serum periostin levels, pulmonary function tests, 6-minute walking test (6MWT) and quality of life in IPF patients.Material and methods: Our study was carried out with 40 IPF patients who were followed at Uludag University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pulmonary Medicine. Spirometer and carbon monoxide diffusion test (DLCO) for respiratory functions, 6MWT and periostin level measurement were performed on the patients, and results were recorded.Results: A total of 31 of patients were males and nine were females. The diagnosis of IPF was made according to the guidelines of ATS / ERS / JRS / ALAT with 25 (62.5%) patients by radiologically and 15 (37.5%) patients with histopathological and radiological features. The mean periostin level was 32.9 +/- 37.57 ng/ml. No significant correlation was found between St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) score, FVC% predicted, DLCO adj% predicted values, 6MWT distance and periostin level which were measured simultaneously. A negative correlation was found between SGRQ score and DLCO adj% predicted value, 6MWT distance.Conclusion: It has been shown that there is no correlation between periostin levels and the results of the pulmonary function tests, when measured and performed at the same time. No studies are evaluating the relationship between 6MWT and SGRQ scores and periostin levels. In our study, serum periostin level, pulmonary function test results, 6MWT and SGRQ scores were not significantly correlated.Publication Il-21: A potential biomarker for diagnosis and predicting prognosis in covid-19 patients(European Respiratory Society Journals, 2021-09-05) Öztürk, Nilüfer Aylin Acet; Ursavaş, Ahmet; Dilektaşlı, Aslı Görek; Demirdöğen, Ezgi; Coşkun, Funda; Ediger, Dane; Uzaslan, Esra; Yöyen-Ermiş, Diğdem; Karaca, Mert; Terzi, Orkun; Bayram, Merve; Ömer, Dilara; Yiğitliler, Büşra; Yurttaş, Ahmet; Maharramov, Shahriyar; Çelik, Gamze; Oral, Barbaros; Karadağ, Mehmet; ACET ÖZTÜRK, NİLÜFER AYLİN; URSAVAŞ, AHMET; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; DEMİRDÖĞEN, EZGİ; COŞKUN, NECMİYE FUNDA; EDİGER, DANE; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; YÖYEN ERMİŞ, DİĞDEM; KARACA, MERT; TERZİ, ORKUN ERAY; BAYRAM, MERVE; ÖMER TOPÇU, DİLARA; YURTTAŞ, AHMET; ORAL, HALUK BARBAROS; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; MAHARRAMOV, SHAHRİYAR; YAZICI, GAMZE; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi.; 0000-0002-6375-1472; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0003-3604-8826; 0000-0002-2954-4293; 0000-0001-5871-8769; 0000-0002-9027-1132; AAG-8744-2021; JPK-7012-2023; AAH-3888-2021; AAE-9142-2019; AAI-3169-2021; AAD-1271-2019Publication Is serum iron responsive protein-2 level associated with pulmonary functions and frequent exacerbator phenotype in copd?(Turkish Assoc Tuberculosis & Thorax, 2020-01-01) Öztürk, Nilufer Aylin Acet; ACET ÖZTÜRK, NİLÜFER AYLİN; Dilektaşlı, Aslı Görek; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; Demirdoğen, Ezgi; DEMİRDÖĞEN, EZGİ; Coşkun, Funda; COŞKUN, NECMİYE FUNDA; Ursavas, Ahmet; URSAVAŞ, AHMET; Karadağ, Mehmet; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Uzaslan, Esra Kunt; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-6375-1472; 0000-0001-7099-9647; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0003-3604-8826; 0000-0002-9027-1132; JPK-7012-2023; Z-1424-2019; AAI-3169-2021; AAD-1271-2019; AAH-9812-2021; AAI-1004-2021; AAG-8744-2021Introduction: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exacerbations contribute to the overall severity in individual patients because they are associated with airway inflammation, pulmonary function loss, decreased quality of life and increased mortality. Although, identifying frequent exacerbator patients is important due to severe outcomes associated with frequent exacerbator phenotype in COPD patients there is no single biomarker which can differentiate this phenotype. Iron responding protein-2 (IRP2) is the protein product of IREB2 gene, which is a COPD susceptibility gene that regulates cellular iron homeostasis and has a key role in hypoxic conditions. Previous research indicates that IREB2 expression in lung tissue is associated with spirometric measurements and emphysema in COPD. In this study, our aim was to investigate whether serum IRP2 levels were associated with frequent exacerbator phenotype, to evaluate whether IRP2 levels in serum are associated with pulmonary functions and selected systemic inflammation biomarkers.Materials and Methods: Designed as a single tertiary care center based, cross-sectional study, included high risk (GOLD C, D) COPD patients who admitted to outpatient clinic consecutively between December 2015 and July 2016.Results: The study included 80 COPD patients. Serum IRP2 levels were negatively correlated with FEV ml (r= -0.25, p= 0.02) and body weight (r= -0.35, p= 0.002) but not with markers of systemic inflammation. COPD patients with at least one exacerbation history in the last year tended to have higher 1RP2 levels than patients without any exacerbation (12.3 (IQR 25-75: 10.417.1) vs 10.5 (1QR 25-75: 8.8-18.5), p= 0.061.Conclusion: Serum IRP2 level is significantly correlated with FEV1 mL but not with FEV1 predicted and cannot be used to differentiate frequent exacer bator patients. Although IREB2 gene expressions in lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage results have significant associations with emphysema and FEV1/FVC, FEV1 %predicted in COPD patients, our results suggests serum IRP2 level is not as promising.Publication Frailty: An indicator for poor outcomes among in-hospital pulmonology patients(European Respiratory Soc Journals, 2021-09-05) Öztürk, Nilüfer Aylin Acet; Dilektaşlı, Aslı Görek; Güçlü, Özge Aydın; Ursavaş, Ahmet; Demirdoğen, Ezgi; Coşkun, Funda; Uzaslan, Esra; Karadağ, Mehmet; ACET ÖZTÜRK, NİLÜFER AYLİN; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; AYDIN GÜÇLÜ, ÖZGE; URSAVAŞ, AHMET; DEMİRDÖĞEN, EZGİ; COŞKUN, NECMİYE FUNDA; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-6375-1472; 0000-0003-1005-3205; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0003-3604-8826; 0000-0002-9027-1132; AAI-3169-2021; JPK-7012-2023; AAG-8744-2021; AAD-1271-2019; Z-1424-2019; CNP-1063-2022; AAG-9930-2019; CDI-1977-2022Publication The age-dependent role of Th22, Tc22, and Tc17 cells in the severity of pneumonia in COVID-19 immunopathogenesis(Wiley, 2021-08) Şimşek, Abdurrahman; Çağan, Eren; Kızmaz, Muhammed Ali; Dombaz, Fatma; Tezcan, Gülçin; Asan, Ali; Demir, H.

Several biomarkers were evaluated as predictors for progression towards severe disease. IL-21 is a member of common gamma-chain cytokine family and creates some specific effects during programming and maintenance of antiviral immunity. We aimed to assess IL-21 as a biomarker for diagnosis and outcome prediction in patients hospitalized with COVID-19. Materials and methods: Patients with a preliminary diagnosis of COVID-19 and pneumonia other than COVID-19 admitted to a tertiary care hospital were included consecutively in this comparative study. Results: The study population consisted of 51 patients with COVID-19 and 11 patients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia. Serum IL-21 concentration was markedly higher, and serum CRP concentration was significantly lower in COVID-19 patients compared to nonCOVID-19 pneumonia patients. Within COVID-19 patients, 10 patients showed radiological and clinical progression. Patients with clinical worsening had lower lymphocyte count and haemoglobin. In addition to that, deteriorating patients had higher urea, LDH levels, and elevated concentration of both IL-6 and IL-21. The cut-off value of 106 ng/L for IL-21 has 80.0% sensitivity, %60.9 specificity for discriminating patients with clinical worsening. Multivariable analysis performed to define risk factors for disease progression identified IL-6 and IL-21 as independent predictors. Odds ratio for serum IL-6 concentrations >_ 3.2 pg/mL was 8.07 (95% CI: 1.3747.50, p = 0.04) and odds ratio for serum IL-21 concentrations >_ 106 ng/L was 6.24 (95% CI: 1.04 - 37.3, p = 0.02). Conclusion: We identified specific differences in serum IL-21 between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 pneumonia patients. Serum IL-21 measurement has promising predictive value for disease progression in COVID-19 patients. High serum IL-6 and IL-21 levels obtained upon admission are independent risk factors for clinical worsening.Publication Impact of posaconazole prophylaxis and antifungal treatment on BAL GM performance in hematology malignancy patients with febrile neutropenia: A real life experience(Springer, 2023-10-16) Acet-Öztürk, Nilüfer Aylin; Ömer-Topcu, Dilara; Vurat Acar, Kübra; Aydın-Güçlü, Özge; Pınar, İbrahim Ethem; Demirdoğen, Ezgi; Görek-Dilektasli, Aslı; Kazak, Esra; Özkocaman, Vildan; Ursavaş, Ahmet; Özkalemkaş, Fahir; Ener, Beyza; Ali, Rıdvan; Akalın, Halis; ACET ÖZTÜRK, NİLÜFER AYLİN; ÖMER TOPÇU, DİLARA; VURAT ACAR, KÜBRA; AYDIN GÜÇLÜ, ÖZGE; PINAR, İBRAHİM ETHEM; DEMİRDÖĞEN, EZGİ; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; KAZAK, ESRA; ÖZKOCAMAN, VİLDAN; URSAVAŞ, AHMET; ÖZKALEMKAŞ, FAHİR; ENER, BEYZA; ALİ, RIDVAN; AKALIN, EMİN HALİS; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İç Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Hematoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Enfeksiyon Hastalıkları ve Klinik Mikrobiyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Mikrobiyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-6375-1472; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0001-7530-1279; AAI-3169-2021; JGM-6601-2023; Z-1424-2019; AAH-9812-2021; AAU-8952-2020; AAG-8459-2021; FRE-8778-2022; JQQ-5505-2023; GXD-8045-2022; JHW-9355-2023; FQG-8981-2022; JIW-1248-2023; CNK-0895-2022; GXD-8209-2022BackgroundDiagnostic accuracy of galactomannan measurements is highly variable depending on the study population, diagnostic procedures, and treatment procedures. We aimed to evaluate the effect of posaconazole prophylaxis and empiric antifungal treatment upon diagnostic accuracy of GM measurements in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), bronchial lavage (BL), and serum in hematological malignancy population.MethodsPatients hospitalized in a single tertiary care center with hematologic malignancies undergoing fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB) with a preliminary diagnosis of IPA were retrospectively included.ResultsIn all the study population (n = 327), AUC for BAL, BL, and serum GM were as follows: 0.731 [0.666-0.790], 0.869 [0.816-0.912], and 0.610 [0.540-0.676] with BL samples having the best diagnostic value. GM measurements in patients under posaconazole prophylaxis (n = 114) showed similar diagnostic performance. While specificity was similar between patients with and without posaconazole prophylaxis, sensitivity of GM measurements was lower in patients with prophylaxis. Analyses with patient classified according to antifungal treatment at the time of FOB procedure (n = 166) showed a decreased diagnostic accuracy in serum GM and BAL GM measurements related with the duration of treatment. However, BAL, BL, and serum GM measurements presented similar sensitivity and specificity in higher cut-off values in longer durations of antifungal treatment.ConclusionOur study shows that posaconazole prophylaxis and active short-term (3 days) antifungal treatment do not significantly affect overall diagnostic performance of GM measurements in bronchoalveolar lavage and bronchial lavage samples. However, using different cut-off values for patients receiving active treatment might be suggested to increase sensitivity.Publication Coexistence of localized tracheobronchial amyloidosis and chronic hepatitis b infection(Medycyna Praktyczna, 2019-04-30) Güçlü, Özge Aydın; URSAVAŞ, AHMET; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; DEMİRDÖĞEN, EZGİ; Demirdöğen, Ezgi; Dilektaşlı, Aslı Görek; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Karadağ, Mehmet; Akyıldız, Elif Ülker; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Patoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0003-1005-3205; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0001-7099-9647; 0000-0002-9027-1132; JPK-7012-2023; AAG-8744-2021; AAH-9812-2021; AAI-3169-2021
