    OBJECTIVE: Bronchiectasis is a chronic suppurative lung disease that significantly impacts the patients\" quality of life. The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between quality of life and patient\"s psychological status and bronchiectasis disease severity indexes in patients with non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. We also aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of Turkish version of Quality of Life Questionnaire-Bronchiectasis (V3.1) in Turkish adult bronchiectatic patients.

    Burden, depression and fatigue in caregivers of lung transplantation candidates
    (2023-01-01) OLGUN YILDIZELİ, ŞEHNAZ; TUFAN ÇİNÇİN, ASLI; ARIKAN, HÜSEYİN; ERYÜKSEL, SEMİHA EMEL; OLGUN YILDIZELİ Ş., Tufan Cincin A., ARIKAN H., Eryuksel E.
    Objective: A great deal of social support is often provided by the caregiver of the patient. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the burden, fatigue and depression of the primary caregiver of patients with pulmonary transplantation candidates.Patients and Method: The primary caregivers of patients who were admitted to our hospital\"s pulmonary transplant outpatient clinic with end-stage pulmonary disease and no definite contraindications for transplantation, were included in the study. Zarit Burden Scale, Beck Depression Inventory and Short-Form (SF)-36 - Vitality questionnaires were applied to participants.Results: Thirty-nine patients and their caregivers were evaluated. Caregivers experienced low levels of depression. Mean score for Beck Depression Inventory was 12.7 +/- 10.1. Caregivers generally experienced medium levels of burden. Mean score for Zarit Burden Scale was 26.9 +/- 14.2. Majority of caregivers experienced clinically significant fatigue. Mean score for SF-36 - Vitality was 61 +/- 16.7. Zarit Burden Scale scores and Beck Depression Inventory scores showed a statistically significant positive correlation (r:0.962 p<0.01). Conclusion: Increased burden of caregivers of lung transplant candidates was associated with depression and fatigue. The presence of depressive symptoms is noteworthy even in the mild to moderate levels of burden. Supporting caregivers, has a great importance in terms of patient care and quality.

    Increased D-dimer is associated with disease progression and increased mortality in Turkish COVID-19 patients
    (2023-05-31) MERCANCI, ZEYNEP; ILGIN, CAN; OLGUN YILDIZELİ, ŞEHNAZ; KOCAKAYA, DERYA; BALCAN, MEHMET BARAN; KARAKURT, SAİT; ERYÜKSEL, SEMİHA EMEL; Mercanci Z., ILGIN C., Yildizeli S. O., KOCAKAYA D., Balcan B., Sengel B. E., KARAKURT S., Eryuksel E.
    Objective: Coagulopathy is thought to play an important role in the development of severe COVID-19. High D-dimer levels have been reported in Chinese cohort studies. However, ethnicity has significant implications for thrombotic risk. Our aim in this study is to determine the effect of D-dimer measurements on disease prognosis and mortality in Turkish patients with COVID-19. Patients and Methods: The study was designed retrospectively. Patients over the age of 18 who were admitted to our hospital were included in the study. Results: The study included 226 patients. According to the World Health Organization staging, 75(33.2%) patients, according to the staging of Siddiqi et al., 67 (29.7%) patients progressed. In the ROC analysis performed to predict mortality, AUC value for D-dimer was found to be 82.25% (95%CI 74.8%-89.71%). When the cut-off value for D-dimer was accepted as ≥3.25mg/L, specificity was 94.15%, correctly classified rate 88.5%, positive likelihood ratio as (LR):5.69, negative LR:0.71. Conclusion: As a result, similar to the Chinese cohorts, elevated D-dimer measurements increase disease progression and mortality in Turkish patients with COVID-19. D-dimer levels of 3.25 mg/L and above, strongly determine the risk of increased mortality in the Turkish Caucasian ethnic group.
