Öğe Phototherapy, Hyperbilirubinemia and Genotoxicity in Newborns(Elsevier Science Bv, 2010) Karadag, Ahmet; Demirin, Hilmi; Dogan, Derya Gumus; Aslan, Mehmet; Tatli, Mustafa Mansur[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Separation anxiety disorder increases among neonatal intensive care unit graduates(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012) Karabel, Musemma; Tan, Seda; Tatli, Mustafa Mansur; Yilmaz, Ayse Esra; Tonbul, Alparslan; Karadag, AhmetAim: To evaluate whether separation anxiety disorder (SAD) develops in the later life of the infants, who were separated from their mothers in relation to being in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Methods: A group of 57 children, ages over 6 years old who were cared in NICU has been evaluated retrospectively by using the SAD diagnostic scale which is adapted according to DSM-IV. Another age and sex matched 50 children who admitted to the outpatient unit were selected as control group. Results: We found that the scores and incidence of SAD were increased among children who were cared in the NICU and both were correlated with the duration of stay in the NICU. Conclusion: The NICU should be arranged to support the development of the baby. Families should be informed about the necessity of sustaining an early mother-infant interaction. By supporting mother-infant interaction, it will be provided that the baby will establish a more secure relation with his/her mother, develop more healthy and have less behavior problems in the future life.Öğe Serum Interleukin-6 Levels in the Differential Diagnosis of Sepsis and Transient Tachypnea of Newborn(Aves Yayincilik, Ibrahim Kara, 2010) Uras, Nurdan; Karadag, Ahmet; Tonbul, Alparslan; Mete, Emin; Kara, Semra; Karabel, Musemma; Tatli, Mustafa MansurObjective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in the differentiation of neonatal bacterial sepsis and TTN. Material and Methods: The hospital records of 58 newborn infants with respiratory distress who were above 35 weeks of gestational age were investigated. Patients were divided into two groups. The infection group consisted of patients with proven sepsis and clinical sepsis and the other was the UN group. Clinical findings and white blood cell count, serum C-reactive protein (CRP), IL-6 levels and the ratio of immature neutrophils to total neutrophils count (UT) were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results: Serum CRP and IL-6 levels were found higher than the normal limits in both of the groups. However there was no significant difference between them. Duration of respiratory distress was longer and I/T ratio significantly higher in the infection group than the UN group. The combination of IL-6 and I/T ratio yielded a sensitivity of 80%, a specificity of 48%, a positive predictive value of 44.7%, and a negative predictive value of 80% Conclusion: The I/T ratio and IL-6 may contribute to the early diagnosis of sepsis with respiratory symptoms in newborn infants but IL-6 alone cannot distinguish between TIN and sepsis.Öğe Subclinical hypoxia of infants with intrauterine growth retardation determined by increased serum S100B protein levels(Tubitak Scientific & Technological Research Council Turkey, 2011) Kirmemis, Ozlem; Tatli, Mustafa Mansur; Tayman, Cuneyt; Koca, Cemile; Karadag, Ahmet; Uras, Nurdan; Dilmen, UgurAim: To test the hypothesis that serum S100B levels could be useful in detecting neurological damage in infants with intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR). Materials and methods: The study group consisted of infants with IUGR and the control group consisted of age-matched healthy infants. S100B protein levels were measured after birth and compared between groups. Results: For this study, 43 infants with IUGR and 25 infants as a control group were recruited. Gender, gestational age, type of delivery, and maternal age of the groups were statistically insignificant, with the exception of the mean birth weights (2120 +/- 450 g in the IUGR group and 3096 +/- 570 g in the control group (P < 0.001), respectively). S100B protein levels of the IUGR infants (1.13 +/- 0.54) were significantly higher than those of the control group (0.45 +/- 0.13) (P < 0.001). IUGR infants treated with antenatal steroids showed lower S100B levels than IUGR infants that did not receive antenatal steroid treatments (P < 0.05). The study group infants were divided into 2 groups, for growth retardation (GR) that was asymmetric (n = 15) and symmetric (n = 28). The asymmetric and symmetric GR infants' S100B levels were 1.14 +/- 0.47 pg/mL and 1.21 +/- 0.34 pg/mL, respectively, and no significant differences were found between the 2 groups in terms of S100B levels (P = 0.32). Conclusion: The results of this study favor the opinion that there is an existing intrauterine hypoxia causing hypoxic brain tissue damage in IUGR infants, even when followed up with modern obstetrical screening protocols. Measurements of S100B may be useful in the prediction of outcome in these infants.
