The papulopustular lesion/arthritis cluster of Behcet's syndrome also clusters in families

Lara D. Veeken (2012)

Mehmet Karaca Gülen Hatemi Necdet Süt Hasan Yazıcı

Objective. We have previously reported distinct symptom clusters among our patients with Behçet's syndrome (BS). The presence of such clusters suggests that more than one pathogenetic mechanism might be operative in BS. Increases in the frequency of certain clusters in familial BS cases, if present, would further support this notion. To test this hypothesis, we compared the frequency of symptom clusters between familial (Group F) and non-familial (Group NF) cases of BS. Methods. We identified 380 BS patients who had reported a first-degree relative by reviewing 6031 patient charts. We were able to contact 186 (Group F). From the same initial pool, 500 patients were randomly selected. Of those, patients who did not report a family history of BS and who had attended our clinic during the previous 3 months made up Group NF ( n = 221). Both groups were questioned about their symptoms within the previous 3 months. Data were analysed using factor analysis, cluster analysis and χ 2 tests. Results. The make-up of the symptom clusters were very similar for the factor and the cluster analyses. The frequency of papulopustular lesions and joint involvement cluster was significantly higher in Group F (39.2 vs 21.5%, P < 0.001). Furthermore, the same cluster was shared in 5/17 related pairs from Group F and in only 5/110 unrelated pairs from Group NF [29 vs 4.5%, P = 0.004; risk ratio (RR) = 6.47, 95% CI 2.15, 18.89]. Conclusion. The papulopustular lesions and arthritis cluster in BS appears to cluster in familial BS as well. This further supports the notion that the pathogenesis of BS may entail several distinct mechanisms resulting in separate phenotype clusters.

Altered diastolic function and aortic stiffness in Alzheimer’s disease

Clinical Interventions in Aging (2014)

Nazmi Çalık Damirbek Osmonov Mehmet Karaca Osman Bolca Kazım Serhan Özcan

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is closely linked to cardiovascular risk factors.Echocardiographic studies were performed, including left ventricular diastolic functions, left and right atrial conduction times, and arterial stiffness parameters, namely stiffness index, pressure-strain elastic modulus, and distensibility, on 29 patients with AD and 24 age-matched individuals with normal cognitive function.The peak mitral flow velocity of the early rapid filling wave (E) was lower, and the peak velocity of the late filling wave caused by atrial contraction (A), deceleration time of peak E velocity, and isovolumetric relaxation time were higher in the AD group. The early myocardial peak (Ea) velocity was significantly lower in AD patients, whereas the late diastolic (Aa) velocity and E/Ea ratio were similar between the two groups. In Alzheimer patients, stiffness index and pressure-strain elastic modulus were higher, and distensibility was significantly lower in the AD group compared to the control. Interatrial electromechanical delay was significantly longer in the AD group.Our findings suggest that patients with AD are more likely to have diastolic dysfunction, higher atrial conduction times, and increased arterial stiffness compared to the controls of same sex and similar age.

Topical Selamectin Treatment of Otodectes cynotis in Van Cats

Turkish Journal of Parasitology (2014)

Cumali Özkan Mehmet Karaca Nalan Özdal

The aim of this study was evaluate the efficacy of the use of selamectine in the treatment of O. cynotis in Van Cats.The material of this study comprised of 30 Van Cat which were infected.In the clinical examination; restlessness, head shaking, scratching at the ears and wax in both ears with brown-black colored cerumens were found. In the otoscopic examination and analysing the samples, O. cynotis was determined. For treatment, single dose selamectin was given. At the 15th and 30th day after treatment, otoscopic and microscopic examinations were repeated. In the 15th day after the treatment, it was found that clinical symptoms seen in the animals were significantly reduced, only the cerumens in 4 cats remained. Besides, at the 30th day, it is found that all the clinical symptoms disappeared in all animals, and with the otoscopic and microscopic examination it was found that there were no agents of O. cynotis.As a result, due to the ease of usage in cats housed in a crowd and the reason the efficiency for the treatment used as a single dose, selamectine is efficient for treating O. cynotis in Van Cats and it can be used safely.
