Öğe Bilateral episodic paroxysmal hemicrania: a case presentation(Springer Heidelberg, 2013) Kaplan, Y.; Kamisli, O.; Kamisli, S.; Altinayar, S.; Ozcan, C.[Abstract Not Available]Öğe CSF flow patterns in the brain in patients with neuro-Behcet disease and Behcet disease(Verduci Publisher, 2017) Unlu, S.; Dogan, M.; Kapicioglu, Y.; Kamisli, S.; Oner, S.; Yildirim, I. O.; Ozturk, M.OBJECTIVE: In the etiopathogenesis of Behcet disease (BD) and Neuro-Behcet disease (NBD), vascular eclipse occurs in both the arteries and veins. The disease affects all vascular structures. The present study evaluates the use of Phase Contrast (PC) Cerebral Spinal Fluid (CSF) Flow Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), a non-invasive technique for measuring CSF dynamics, for determining the level of aqueducts that are influenced in BD and NBD. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The quantitative evaluation of CSF flow in BD and NBD was performed using images obtained at the level of the cerebral aqueduct on the semi-axial plane. The PC-MRI angiography technique was used. RESULTS: There is no distinctive difference between BD and NBD that can be distinguished by the aqueduct diameters of both conditions. A clear increase in aqueduct diameter occurred BD and NBD group when compared to the control group. While there were no differences found between the BD group and the control group regarding peak velocity, average velocity, forward flow, reverse flow, net forward flow, and flow, there were distinctive increases in these various factors in the NBD group. CONCLUSIONS: Using the non-invasive PC-MRI technique, this study found that in BD and NBD patients, changes occurred in CSF flow figures. Increases in CSF parameters were also observed in NBD patients, a finding which may be helpful for future distinction between BD and NBD during diagnosis.Öğe Gender differences in patients with total anterior circulation infarct(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012) Inanc, Y.; Kaplan, Y.; Kamisli, O.; Kamisli, S.; Ozcan, C.[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Hemoglobin A1c-related histologic characteristics of symptomatic carotid plaques(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2019) Tecellioglu, M.; Alan, S.; Kamisli, S.; Tecellioglu, F. S.; Kamisli, O.; Ozcan, C.Background: The aims of our study were to compare the histomorphological characteristics of carotid plaques and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), which are risk factors for ischemic stroke, in patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy for carotid artery stenosis. Moreover, we aimed to identify the structures that were histologically affected by symptomatic carotid plaques in cases with elevated HbA1c. Materials and Methods: A total of 64 patients who presented with ischemic stroke and had not previously been diagnosed with diabetes were retrospectively evaluated. All stroke risk factors were reviewed. Carotid plaques were graded separately by two different pathologists through microscopic assessment of the following parameters: plaque rupture, lipid core, fibrous cup thickness, inflammation, intraplaque hemorrhage, thrombus, calcification, necrotic core, and neovascularization. An HbA1c value <6.3% was accepted as normal or indicative of prediabetes (group 1), whereas patients with values ranging between 6.3-7.4%, 7.5-8.4%, and 8.4% were categorized into the effectively controlled (group 2), less effectively controlled (group 3), and uncontrolled (group 4) groups, respectively. Results: The mean age of the patients was 73.0 4.5 years in group 1, 69.7 2.3 years in group 2, 66.0 8.5 years in group 3, and 62.7 7.1 years in group 4. A negative correlation was present between age and HbA1c. Smoking, hypertension, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, and triglyceride levels were not significantly different among the four groups. According to the HbA1c classifications, the fibrous cup thickness was 2.64 0.3 mm in group 1, 1.85 0.4 mm in group 2, 1.68 0.5 mm in group 3, and 1.45 0.6 mm in group 4. The fibrous cup became thinner as the HbA1c value increased. Other parameters of unstable carotid plaques did not differ among the HbA1c groups. Conclusions: Increased HbA1c values seem to contribute to plaque instability through the formation of a thin fibrous cup. Thus, of the carotid artery plaque parameters including fibrous cup thickness, plaque rupture, lipid core, inflammation, intraplaque hemorrhage, thrombus, calcification, necrotic core, and neovascularization, fibrous cup thickness is the only histomorphological feature that affected by HbA1c.Öğe Increased mean platelet volume in cervicocephalic artery dissections(Springer London Ltd, 2012) Kamisli, O.; Kamisli, S.; Gonullu, S.; Kaplan, Y.; Ozcan, C.We aimed to investigate the role of platelets in the pathogenesis of cervicocephalic artery dissections by measuring the mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet count. Thirty-four patients with evidence of cervicocephalic artery dissection were included in the study. Cervicocephalic artery dissection patients were divided into two subgroups as vertebral artery dissections and carotid artery dissections. There were 30 control subjects with similar baseline characteristics. The platelet count and MPV were compared between groups. The analysis showed a significant difference between the MPV values of the cervicocephalic artery dissection group and the control group (p < 0.05). However, when we compared subgroups with controls, we found a significantly higher MPV values only in the vertebral artery dissection group. We did not find any significant difference for total platelet count between the cervicocephalic artery dissection groups and controls. MPV is a marker of platelet function and activation. Increased MPV may be a result of dissection. In addition, it may be a risk factor for dissection-related stroke. Our study supports the notion that platelet reactivity is important in the pathogenesis of the cervicocephalic artery dissections, especially in vertebral artery dissections.Öğe Olfactory disfunction and its relation olfactor bulbus volume in Parkinson's disease(Verduci Publisher, 2014) Altinayar, S.; Oner, S.; Can, S.; Kizilay, A.; Kamisli, S.; Sarac, K.OBJECTIVE: Olfactory dysfunction is the most frequently seen non-motor symptom of Idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). The aim of this study is to analyze selective olfactory dysfunction, and olfactory bulb volume (OBV) in subtypes of IPD, and compare them with those of the healthy controls. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Our study included 41 patients with IPD and age and gender matched 19 healthy controls. IPD patients were either tremor dominant (65.9%; TDPD) or non-tremor dominant (34.1%; NTDPD) type. All patients underwent neurological, ear, nose, and throat examinations, and orthonasal olfaction testing. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique was used to measure the volume of the olfactory bulb. RESULTS: A significant decrease in olfactory identification scores was found in the patient group. The patients had difficulty in discriminating between odors of mothballs, chocolate, Turkish coffee and soap. OBV did not differ between the patient, and the control groups. In the TDPD group, odor identification ability was decreased when compared to the control group. However, odor test results of NTDPD, control and TDPD groups were similar. OBV estimates of the TDPD group were not different from those of the control group, while in the NTDPD group OBVs were found to be decreased. In all patients with Parkinson's disease OBV values did not vary with age of the patients, duration of the disease, age at onset of the disease, and Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor scores (UPDRS-m). CONCLUSIONS: Olfactory function is a complex process involving olfactory, and cortical structures as well. In Idiopathic Parkinson's disease, changes in OBV do not seem to be directly related to olfactory dysfunction.Öğe P50 sensory gating in hypoxemic chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients(Verduci Publisher, 2013) Kamisli, O.; Ermis, H.; Kamisli, S.; Gulbas, G.; Kablan, Y.; Ozcan, C.PURPOSE: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a condition characterized by progressive airway obstruction and recurrent attacks. Multisystem involvement with extra-pulmonary manifestations has been seen in COPD patients. Numerous neurological involvement like cerebrovascular diseases, polyneuropathies, motor neuron diseases and cognitive impairement has been reported in COPD patients. Cognitive dysfunction is usually associated with hypoxia or hypercapnia in COPD patients. To our knowledge there is no study about sensory gating in COPD patients. We performed p50 test to COPD patients and we investigate sensory gating in COPD patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 25 male patients with COPD and 17 healthy male subjects for controls included to this study. The patients were diagnosed with COPD according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) criteria. p50 amplitude and latency, percentage of P50 suppression, N100 amplitude and latency and the N100 suppression percentage of the COPD patients and controls presented were measured and compared. RESULTS: We found that the conditioning amplitudes (S1) did not differ between COPD patients and controls (p > 0.05) but (S2) amplitude was significantly increased in COPD patients (p < 0.05). COPD patients showed significantly lower P50 and N100 suppression percentage than controls (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: COPD patients showed a disturbance cognitive function such as attention with p50 suppression rate decrease. P50 sensory gating test can be useful to analyze the pre-attention period of cognitive impairment in the early phase of COPD patients.Öğe Peduncular hallucinosis related with multiple sclerosis: a case report(Springer Heidelberg, 2012) Kamisli, O.; Kaplan, Y.; Kamisli, S.; Ozcan, C.[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Serum Gamma-glutamyltransferase Levels in Ischemic Stroke Subtypes(Karger, 2013) Kamisli, O.; Gonullu, S.; Kaplan, Y.; Kamisli, S.; Altinayar, S.; Ozcan, C.[Abstract Not Available]
