P., YILMAZ YEĞİT C., Yanaz M., Mursaloglu H., Uzunoglu B., Kocamaz D., Tastan G., Filbrun A., et al.BackgroundA collaboration between the University of Michigan (UM) Cystic Fibrosis Center (CFC) and Marmara University (MU) CFC was initiated in MU through conducting Quality Improvement projects (QIP). The global aim was to improve nutritional status of children with CF (cwCF), with a specific aim to increase the mean BMI percentile (BMIp) for cwCF by 10 percentile points in 12 months. MethodsBody mass index (BMI) percentiles of cwCF were categorized as: nutritionally adequate (BMIp >= 50%); at risk (BMIp 25%-49%); urgently at risk (BMIp 10%-25%); critically at risk (BMIp < 10%). Appropriate interventions were made according to BMIp category every three months. Forced expiratory volume in one-second percent predicted (FEV1pp), and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) were evaluated. ResultsOne hundred and eight-two cwCF with a mean age of 9.1 +/- 4.3 years were included in the project. Baseline BMIp increased from 25.6 to 37.2 at the 12th month (p < 0.001). In the critically at-risk group BMIp increased from 3.6 to 20.5 (p < 0.001), in the urgently at risk group from 15.9 to 30.8 (p < 0.001), in the at risk group from 37.0 to 44.2 (p < 0.079) and in the nutritionally adequate group the increase was from 66.8 to 69.5 (p < 0.301). FEV1pp also improved significantly, from 81.3 +/- 20.6 to 85.9 +/- 20.8 (p < 0.001). Physical functioning, eating problems, and respiratory symptoms domains of the HRQoL evaluation improved (p < 0.05). ConclusionThis project has led to significant improvements in BMIp, FEV1pp and HRQoL of cwCF; similar projects could easily be implemented by centers in other developing countries.Publication Open Access Depression, anxiety, and sleep quality of caregivers of children with spinal muscular atrophy(2023-03-01) ERGENEKON, ALMALA PINAR; YILMAZ YEĞİT, CANSU; SELÇUK, MERVE; KARABULUT, ŞEYDA; ÖZTÜRK THOMAS, GÜLTEN; ERDEM ERALP, ELA; ÜNVER, OLCAY; KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; GÖKDEMİR, YASEMİN; ERGENEKON A. P., Gumus Z., YILMAZ YEĞİT C., Cenk M., Gulieva A., Kalyoncu M., SELÇUK M., KARABULUT Ş., ÖZTÜRK G., ERDEM ERALP E., et al.BackgroundThe aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of anxiety, depression, sleep, and associated factors in caregivers of children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). Materials and MethodsBeck Depression Inventory (BDI), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State (STAI-S), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-Trait (STAI-T), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were used to assess the anxiety, depression, and sleep quality of the caregivers of children with SMA. Higher scores indicated worse outcome for all three questionnaires. ResultsFifty-six caregivers of children with SMA were included in the study. Median age of children was 6 (3.2-10) years and mean age of the caregivers was 37.0 +/- 6.5 years. Median scores of the BDI, STAI-S, STAI-T, and PSQI were 12 (7.2-17), 35.5 (31-44), 40.5 (35-48), and 7.0 (5.0-10.0), respectively. There was a positive correlation between BDI and PSQI scores (p < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between the age of the caregivers and PSQI, BDI, STAI-T scores (p = 0.01, r = -0.341; p = 0.006, r = -0.364; p = 0.003, r = -0.395, respectively). There was a negative correlation between the age of the patients and the PSQI scores of the caregivers (p = 0.01, r = -0.33). There was a negative correlation between BDI scores and household income (p = 0.01, r = -0.34). ConclusionCaregivers of children with SMA had elevated depression and anxiety levels and they also had decreased sleep quality. Economic and social support resources are needed to help caregivers of those children.Publication Open Access Editorial: Cystic fibrosis in children(2022-05-01) KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; KARADAĞ B. T., Hatziagorou E., Teper A., Ersu R.Publication Metadata only The utility of risk assessment tools for acute pulmonary embolism in children(2022-09-01) ERGENEKON, ALMALA PINAR; YILMAZ YEĞİT, CANSU; SELÇUK, MERVE; TRUE, ÖMER; ERDEM ERALP, ELA; GÖKDEMİR, YASEMİN; KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; ERGENEKON A. P. , YILMAZ YEĞİT C., Cenk M., Gulieva A., Kalyoncu M., SELÇUK M., DOĞRU Ö., ERDEM ERALP E., GÖKDEMİR Y., Karakoc F., et al.Background and Aim Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a potentially life-threatening disease in children. The objective of the study is to evaluate the utility of adult-based pulmonary embolism rule-out criteria (PERC), Pediatric PE Model, and D-dimer in the diagnosis of PE in children. Material and Methods The study consisted of patients under 18 years of age who were consulted to the Pediatric Pulmonology Clinic for the evaluation of PE. Patients were divided into two groups based on the confirmation of PE. The group with the presence of PE (n = 20) consisted of children who were diagnosed with PE. The group with the absence of PE (n = 28) consisted of children with clinically suspected PE but negative diagnostic imaging. Adult validated clinical decision PERC rule and Pediatric PE Model were retrospectively applied to the patients. Results In the study, PERC demonstrated a sensitivity of 60% and a specificity of 46% for the diagnosis of PE in children. When PE Model was evaluated for the children, it was found a 50% sensitivity and 75% specificity. Combining PE Model and PERC rule with D-dimer did not increase the specificity and sensitivity. Smoking was found to be relevant for PE in the childhood. Twenty-five percent of the patients had a genetic tendency for PE. All of the patients had an underlying disease as well. Conclusion None of the current risk assessment tools (PE Model, PERC, D-dimer) were found to be accurate in predicting PE. Further larger population studies are still required to develop a better diagnostic approach.Publication Open Access Task Force report: European Respiratory Society statement for defining respiratory exacerbations in children and adolescents with bronchiectasis for clinical trials(2022-11-01) KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; Chang A. B. , Zacharasiewicz A., Goyal V., Boyd J., Alexopoulou E., Aliberti S., Bell L., Bush A., Claydon A., Constant C., et al.Copyright © The authors 2022.Bronchiectasis is being diagnosed increasingly in children and adolescents. Recurrent respiratory exacerbations are common in children and adolescents with this chronic pulmonary disorder. Respiratory exacerbations are associated with an impaired quality-of-life, poorer long-term clinical outcomes and substantial costs to the family and health systems. The European Respiratory Society (ERS) clinical practice guideline for the management of children and adolescents with bronchiectasis provided a definition of acute respiratory exacerbations for clinical use but to date there is no comparable universal definition for clinical research. Given the importance of exacerbations in the field, this ERS task force sought to obtain robust definitions of respiratory exacerbations for clinical research. The panel was a multidisciplinary team of specialists in paediatric and adult respiratory medicine, infectious disease, physiotherapy, primary care, nursing, radiology, methodology, patient advocacy and parents of children and adolescents with bronchiectasis. We used a standardised process that included a systematic literature review, parents\" survey and a Delphi involving 299 physicians (54 countries) caring for children and adolescents with bronchiectasis. Consensus was obtained for all four statements drafted by the panel as the disagreement rate was very low (range 3.6% to 6.4%). The panel unanimously endorsed the four consensus definitions for: non-severe and severe exacerbations as an outcome measure; non-severe exacerbation for studies initiating treatment and; resolution of a non-severe exacerbation; for clinical trials involving children and adolescents with bronchiectasis. This ERS task force proposes using these internationally derived, consensus-based definitions of respiratory exacerbations for future clinical paediatric bronchiectasis research.Publication Open Access Respiratory outcome of spinal muscular atrophy type 1 patients treated with nusinersen(2022-01-01) ERGENEKON, ALMALA PINAR; ÖZTÜRK THOMAS, GÜLTEN; ÜNVER, OLCAY; TÜRKDOĞAN, DİLŞAD; KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; ERDEM ERALP, ELA; ERGENEKON A. P., YILMAZ YEĞİT C., Cenk M., GÖKDEMİR Y., ERDEM ERALP E., ÖZTÜRK G., ÜNVER O., Coskun O. K., Saygi E. K., TÜRKDOĞAN D., et al.Background Respiratory failure is the leading cause of mortality in spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (SMA1) children. The current study aims to evaluate the effect of nusinersen treatment on respiratory outcome of the patients with SMA1. Methods In this retrospective, single-center study, 52 SMA1 patients treated with nusinersen were included in the analysis. Patients were divided into two groups based on their age at the time of their first nusinersen treatment (Group 1: 6 months). Respiratory outcome on the 180th day of treatment is defined as the type of ventilation support (spontaneous breathing, noninvasive ventilation (NIV), and tracheostomized or intubated on invasive mechanical ventilation). Demographic data, respiratory outcome, and Children\"s Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test of Neuromuscular Disorders scores were obtained from medical records. Results On the 180th day of treatment, 46 of the 52 (88.4%) children were alive. Prevalence of the mortality was similar in both groups (P = 0.65). The comparison of respiratory outcome in patients between group 1 and group 2 was as follows: spontaneous breathing, 7 (43.7%) versus 4 (13.3%) (P = 0.03); NIV = 16 h/day. There were significant improvements in Children\"s Hospital of Philadelphia Infant Test of Neuromuscular Disorders scores of the patients at day 180 in comparison with the baseline (P < 0.001). Conclusions Early initiation of nusinersen treatment in SMA1 patients may alter the disease\"s natural course.Publication Metadata only Global access to affordable CFTR modulator drugs: Time for action!(2022-05-01) KARADAĞ, BÜLENT TANER; Zampoli M., Kashirskaya N., Karadag B., Filho L.
