Randomized Controlled Trial
Investigation Of The Effects Of Propofol/Ketamine Versus Propofol/Fentanyl On Nausea-Vomiting Administered For Sedation In Children Undergoing Magnetic Resonance Imaging: A Prospective Randomized Double-Blinded Study.
In this study, we aimed to compare the effects of propofol-ketamine and propofol-fentanyl sedations on post- procedure nausea-vomiting in children undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). ⋯ In our study, we showed that the vomiting rate was higher in the 1st hour in Group K compared to Group F.

Randomized Controlled Trial
THE USE OF HIGH-FLOW NASAL OXYGEN VS. STANDARD OXYGEN THERAPY IN HEMATOLOGICAL MALIGNANCY PATIENTS WITH ACUTE RESPIRATORY FAILURE IN HEMATOLOGY WARDS.
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) was mostly used in intensive care units (ICUs) with few studies in other departments. We hypothesized that HFNC applied at wards is beneficial for acute respiratory failure in hematological malignancy patients. ⋯ HFNC applied in wards is not superior to standard oxygen treatment for acute respiratory failure in hematological malignancy patients.

The present study aimed to determine the association between attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms severity, fibromyalgia (FM) severity, and QoL. ⋯ Our findings indicated that the presence of ADHD symptoms was related to greater FM symptom severity and poorer QoL. Also, ADHD scores would mediate the relationship between depression severity and QoL.

We aimed to determine the presence of subclinical atherosclerosis using carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) and biochemical parameters in children and adolescents with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). ⋯ In this study, the CIMT values of CAH cases were similar to those of healthy subjects.

Gout may cause various radiographic abnormalities such as cartilage loss, spurs, sclerosis, and periostal new bone formation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency of Achilles and plantar spurs and related factors in gout patients. ⋯ The presence of metabolic comorbidities increases the frequency of calcaneal spurs in gout patients. This condition can be explained by the impaired microvascular structure and increased hypoxia resulting in calcification on the tendon and ligament insertion sites.
