    Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, autoimmune demyelinating, and neurodegenerative disorder of the central nervous system. Interactions between environmental factors, predisposition genes, and determining genes appear to be involved in its etiology. Epigenetic mechanisms such as microRNA-mediated gene regulation can determine the susceptibility and severity of autoimmune diseases. Therefore, to determine the role of miR-146a and miR-155 in MS and its developmental stages, the expression levels in the serum of MS and clinically isolated syndrome (CIS) patients were compared with those of healthy controls. In the present study, the expression levels of miR-146a and miR-155 were assessed using quantitative Real-Time PCR in blood samples of 15 CIS patients and 61 relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients alongside 32 healthy patients as controls. Furthermore, any associations with the clinicopathologic variables of the patients were also evaluated. Dysregulations were found only in the miR-146a and miR-155 expressions in the RRMS-Control group. When the RRMS patients were evaluated in terms of the characteristics of sex, annual attack rate, age of diagnosis, duration of follow-up, and immunomodulatory treatments used, no significant differences were observed. However, significant dysregulations were identified in miRNA expression in the vitamin D level, EDSS values, and the number of attacks. ROC curve analysis showed that miR-146a and miR-155 were significant in the RRMS-Control group for the area under the curve (AUC). It is possible that miR-146a may be associated with vitamin D deficiency and disease disability, while miR-155 may be associated with the number of attacks.

    Clinical experiences in psychogenetic nonepileptic seizures between 2003 and 2016 xplaining the diagnosis is the first and most important step of the treatment in clinical practice, and careful patient-doctor communication has a certain positive impact on patients' seizure prognosis

    Sectoral and quadrant evaluation of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness in patients with multiple sclerosis
    (Galenos Publ House, 2023-12-01) Yazici, Alper; Koç, Emine Rabia; KOÇ, EMİNE RABİA; Sarıdaş, Furkan; SARIDAŞ, FURKAN; Turan, Ömer Faruk; 0000-0002-1367-240X; 0000-0001-5945-2317; JCO-1811-2023; HSB-2700-2023
    Objective: To evaluate the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer thickness (GC-IPL) in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) by sector and quadrant.Materials and Methods: Seventy-eight eyes of 39 patients with MS and 82 eyes of 41 healthy participants were analyzed using spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Our study defined MS eyes with optic neuritis (ON) as MS ON eyes and those without ON as MS non-ON eyes. Comparisons of the GC- IPL and pRNFL thicknesses were assessed and the measurements compared with healthy controls (HCs).Results: The comparison of the average and three quadrants (superior, inferior, and temporal) measurements of the pRNFL thickness and the average and six quadrant measurements of the GC-IPL thickness between the MS ON eyes and the MS non-ON eyes revealed statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). The average and four quadrants thickness of pRNFL and the average and six quadrants thickness of GC-IPL were significantly reduced in a comparison of MS ON vs. HC with MS non-ON vs. HC eyes (P < 0.05).Conclusion: The evaluation of pRNFL and GC-IPL thicknesses in MS ON and MS non-ON eyes may be beneficial in determining the central nervous system axonal integrity.
