This study aimed to evaluate the rate of IPF in patients with fibrotic ILD and to determine the clinical-laboratory features of patients with and without IPF that would provide the differential diagnosis of IPF.MATERIAL AND METHODS: The study included the patients with the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern or possible UIP pattern on thorax high-resolution computed tomography, and/or UIP pattern, probable UIP or possible UIP pattern at lung biopsy according to the 2011 ATS/ERSARS/ALAT guidelines. Demographics and clinical and radiological data of the patients were recorded. All data recorded by researchers was evaluated by radiology and the clinical decision board.RESULTS: A total of 336 patients (253 men, 83 women, age 65.8 +/- 9.0 years) were evaluated. Of the patients with sufficient data for diag-nosis (n=300), the diagnosis was IPF in 121 (40.3%), unclassified idiopathic interstitial pneumonia in 50 (16.7%), combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) in 40 (13.3%), and lung involvement of connective tissue disease (CTD) in 16 (5.3%). When 29 patients with definite IPF features were added to the patients with CPFE, the total number of IPF patients reached 150 (50%). Rate of male sex (p<0.001), smoking history (p<0.001), and the presence of clubbing (p=0.001) were significantly high in patients with IPE None of the women <50 years and none of the men <50 years of age without a smoking history were diagnosed with IPE Presence of at least 1 of the symptoms suggestive of CTD, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and antinuclear antibody (FANA) positivity rates were significantly higher in the non-IPF group (p<0.001, p=0.029, p=0.009, respectively).CONCLUSION: The rate of IPF among patients with fibrotic ILD was 50%. In the differential diagnosis of IPF, sex, smoking habits, and the presence of clubbing are important. The presence of symptoms related to CTD, ESR elevation, and EANA positivity reduce the likelihood of IPF.Publication Understanding university students' smoking behaviors towards tobacco-free campus policy(Turkish Assoc Tuberculosis & Thorax, 2021-01-01) Karadag, Mehmet; Aydin Güçlü, Ozge; Gorek Dilektaşlı, Aslı; Coskun, Funda; Uzaslan, Esra; Gorek Dilektasli, Asli; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; Aydin Guclu, Ozge; AYDIN GÜÇLÜ, ÖZGE; Karadag, Mehmet; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Coskun, Funda; COŞKUN, NECMİYE FUNDA; Uzaslan, Esra; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi.; 0000-0002-9027-1132; 0000-0003-1005-3205; 0000-0001-7099-9647; 0000-0003-3604-8826; AAG-8744-2021; AAG-9930-2019; AAD-1271-2019Introduction: Tobacco-free college campuses refer to colleges and universities that have implemented policies prohibiting the use of tobacco products at all indoor and outdoor campus locations. We aimed to evaluate university students' smoking behaviors and their attitudes towards "Tobacco-Free Campus Policy".Materials and Methods: A total of 10,383 university students were included in this cross-sectional study. The questionnaire was sent via web-based student information system. Demographical variables, the frequency of tobacco use, the addiction levels of the smoker students, and their perspective on the Tobacco-Free Campus Policy were evaluated.Results: The study population consisted of 5461 (52.6%) males and their mean age was 22.1 +/- 3.9 years. Among the students, 3992 (38.4%) were current smokers and the age of first smoking was 16.5 +/- 2.78 years. According to FTND scores, 15.1% of participants have high dependence, and 7.5% of them have very high dependence. There was a significant difference among participants who finds unacceptable "Tobacco-Free Campus Policy" in terms of gender (70.7% males vs. 29.3% females, p< 0.001) and smoking habit (7% never smoker, 4.1% ex-smoker, 88.9% current smoker, p< 0.001).Conclusion: The Tobacco-Free Campus Policy is important to fight against the tobacco industry in order to protect the right to health of all tobacco users and those who do not use it and should be considered as a goal to be achieved in order to live in a healthy environment.Publication Use of mucolytics in COPD: A Delphi consensus study(WB Saunders, 2020-11-08) Papi, Alberto; Avdeev, Sergey; Calverley, Peter M. A.; Cordeiro, Carlos R.; Jesenak, Milos; Koblizek, Vladimir; Petkova, Diana; Rogliani, Paola; Tarraf, Hesham; Tzanakis, Nikolaos; Ulmeanu, Ruxandra; Uzaslan, Esra; Yochai, Adir; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; AAI-1004-2021Background: International guidelines recommend mucolytic agents as add-on therapy in selected patients with COPD because they may reduce exacerbations and improve health status. As the evidence varies among mucolytic agents, we used the Delphi method to assess consensus amongst an international panel of COPD experts on mucolytics use in COPD.Methods: 53 COPD experts from 12 countries were asked to complete an online questionnaire and rate their agreement with 15 statements using a 5-point scale. The mucolytic agents evaluated were carbocysteine, erdosteine and N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Data were collected anonymously and consensus presented using descriptive statistics.Results: The 47 respondents reached consensus on the statements. They agreed that regular treatment with mucolytic agents effectively reduces the frequency of exacerbations, reduces the duration of mild-to-moderate exacerbations, and can increase the time to first exacerbation and symptom-free time in COPD patients. Consensus was consistently highest for erdosteine. The experts agreed that all three mucolytics display antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Erdosteine and NAC were thought to improve the efficacy of some classes of antibacterial drugs. All three mucolytics were considered effective for the short-term treatment of symptoms of acute exacerbations when added to other drugs. The panel agreed that approved doses of mucolytic agents have favorable side-effect profiles and can be recommended for regular use in patients with a bronchitic phenotype.Conclusions: Consensus findings support the wider use of mucolytic agents as add-on therapy for COPD. However, the differences in pharmacological actions and clinical effectiveness must be considered when deciding which mucolytic to use.Publication Interleukin-21: A potential biomarker for diagnosis and predicting prognosis in covid-19 patients(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2021-01-01) 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; Yigitliler, Busra; YURTTAŞ, AHMET; Maharramov, Shahriyar; YAZICI, GAMZE; ORAL, HALUK BARBAROS; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi.; 0000-0002-6375-1472; 0000-0001-7099-9647; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0003-3604-8826; 0000-0002-2954-4293; 0000-0001-5871-8769; 0000-0003-0463-6818; 0000-0002-9027-1132; AAG-7406-2021; AAD-1271-2019; AAH-3888-2021; K-7285-2012; AAG-8744-2021; AAI-3169-2021; JPK-7012-2023; AAE-9142-2019Background/aim: COVID-19 patients have a wide spectrum of disease severity. 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 University students' knowledge and attitudes about electronic cigarettes(European Respiratory Soc Journals, 2021-09-05) Dilektasli, Asli Gorek; Guclu, Ozge Aydin; Uzaslan, Esra; Karadag, Mehmet; Dilektasli, Asli Gorek; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; Guclu, Ozge Aydin; AYDIN GÜÇLÜ, ÖZGE; Uzaslan, Esra; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; Karadag, Mehmet; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi.; 0000-0003-1005-3205; 0000-0002-9027-1132; AAG-8744-2021Publication Asthma control and adherence in newly diagnosed young and elderly adult patients with asthma in Turkey(Taylor, 2019-05-04) Gemicioğlu, Bilun; Bayram, Hasan; Cimrin, Arif; Abadoğlu, Öznur; Cilli, Aykut; Uzaslan, Esra; Günen, Hakan; Akyıldız, Levent; Suerdem, Mecit; Özlü, Tevfik; Mısırlıgil, Zeynep; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; AAI-1004-2021Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the factors that affect asthma control and adherence to treatment in newly diagnosed elderly asthmatics in Turkey compared with younger patients. Methods: This real-life prospective observational cohort study was conducted at 136 centers. A web-based questionnaire was administered to the patients who were followed up for 12 months. Results: Analysis included 1037 young adult asthma patients (age <65 years) and 79 elderly asthma patients (age >= 65 years). The percentage of patients with total control in the elderly and young groups were 33.9% and 37.1% at visit 1, 20.0% and 42.1% (p = 0.012) at visit 2, and 50.0% and 49.8% at visit 3, respectively. Adherence to treatment was similar for both groups. Visit compliance was better in the elderly group than in the young group at visit 1 (72.2% vs. 60.8%, p = 0.045), visit 2 (51.9% vs. 34.9%, p = 0.002), and visit 3 (32.9% vs. 19.4%, p = 0.004). Adherence to treatment increased with asthma control in both groups (both p < 0.001) but decreased with the presence of gastritis/ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux, and coronary artery disease in the elderly. Conclusions: Asthma control and adherence to treatment were similar for the elderly and young asthma patients, though the follow-up rate was lower in young patients. The presence of gastritis/ulcer, gastroesophageal reflux and coronary artery disease had negative impacts on the adherence to treatment in elderly adult patients.Publication Sarcoidosis and sjogren's syndrome: Mimicry or coexistence?(Elsevier, 2015-10-01) Dilektaşlı, Aslı Görek; Çetinoğlu, Ezgi D.; Durmuş, Eda; Uzaslan, Esra; Karadağ, Mehmet; GÖREK DİLEKTAŞLI, ASLI; Çetinoğlu, Ezgi D.; Durmuş, Eda; UZASLAN, AYŞE ESRA; KARADAĞ, MEHMET; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göğüs Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0001-7099-9647; 0000-0002-7400-9089; 0000-0002-9027-1132; AAG-8744-2021; JPK-7012-2023; DTT-7416-2022; AAH-9812-2021; ETU-0442-2022; CDI-1977-2022
