    (Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Kaplan, Selcuk; Turk, Bilge Aydin; Elibol, Ebru; Ozbey, Guerkan; Ekinci, Tekin
    The present study aimed to investigate the histopathological effects of obstetric gel (OG) on vaginal tissue. In this study, 21 female Wistar albino rats were divided into three groups, comprising seven animals in each group. The first group (group 1) was the control group, the second group (group 2) was the physiological saline (PS) group, and the third group (group 3) was the OG group. In group 1, dilatation was performed using Hegar dilators from Hegar 5 to Hegar 10 without any vaginal application. In group 2, the vagina was washed with a PS-filled applicator. In group 3, the vagina was washed with an OG-filled applicator and Hegar dilators were used to achieve vaginal dilatation. In the group of OG-applied rats, there was an increase in mast cell infiltration, tissue epithelial thickness, and fibrillin-1 levels of the mucosa in the vaginal tissue. The present study is the first to investigate the histopathological effects of OG used for vaginal tissue dilatation in rats. OGs have no early effectiveness in preventing the damage caused by compression of the vaginal wall; however, OGs may have a protective effect against pelvic floor pathologies.

    (Bayrakol Medical Publisher, 2022) Duran, Mehmet; Bicakcioglu, Murat; Yilmaz, Nezir; Turk, Bilge Aydin; Dogukan, Mevlut; Nakir, Hamza; Dogan, Zumrut
    Aim: Sepsis is a clinical pathology, characterized by a severe and exaggerated inflammatory response. One of the most frequently damaged organs in sepsis is the kidney. Quercetin has anti-inflammatory, anti-proliferative, and antioxidant effects. In this study. it was aimed to examine the protective effects of quercetin on the kidneys. Material and Methods: In the scope of this study, 31 rats were planned to be used in the experiments. The groups and number of animals were as follows: Group 1:1.5 ml saline, Group 2: 1.5 ml olive oil, Group 3: intestinal ligation and puncture procedure was used to create experimental sepsis method. Group 4:20 mg/kg quercetin was administrated by gavage. Group 5: quercetin was administered in intragastrically at doses of 20 mg/kg. In biochemical analyzes of kidney tissue samples, BUN, creatinine, MDA and GSH values were checked. Cell damage, inflammation and fibrosis were evaluated histopathologically. Results: As a result of this study, tissue GSH levels were significantly different between groups 3 and 4 (p- 0.001). In terms of BUN value, it was found to be significantly higher in group 3 (p= 0.002). In tissue histology, glomerulitis (p, 0.001), tubular cell necrosis (p= 0.001) and mesenchymal matrix increase (p= 0.001) were different between groups 3 and 4. Finally, no fibrosis was observed in any group (p> 0.05). Discussion: Quercetin has protective effects on kidney tissue against organ damage caused by sepsis.
