Publication The efficiency of the triple p program for parents of children with type-1 diabetes(Galenos Yayınevi, 2020-12-01) Arkan, Burcu; Vural, Ayse Pinar; Eray, Safak; Eren, Erdal; ARKAN, BURCU; VURAL, AYŞE PINAR; ERAY ÇAMLI, ŞAFAK; EREN, ERDAL; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi/Psikiyatri Hemşireliği Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Psikiyatrisi Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Sağlığı ve Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı/Endokrinoloji Bilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-4847-7751; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-7285-6196; 0000-0002-3358-0019; C-8761-2017; JPK-3909-2023; AAG-8101-2021; E-6291-2017; CEM-2787-2022Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the Triple P-Positive Parenting Training Program, which was applied to the parents of children and adolescents with a type 1 diabetes (T1D) diagnosis aged 3-12 years, on parental attitude, parental mental health, and child behaviour.Materials and Methods: This research was conducted in a quasi-experimental manner. The sample of the research consisted of 32 parents who had children with a T1D diagnosis aged 3-12 years and who agreed to participate in the study. Data were collected using the Family Background Questionnaire, General Health Questionnaire, Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, Parental Attitude Research Instrument, Conflict Behaviour Questionnaire and Parent Satisfaction Questionnaire. The Group Triple P Programme was implemented with all groups for 8 weeks. Data were collected immediately after the programme. Data were evaluated by using multidirectional variance analysis, t-test and chi-square test.Results: It was shown that the Group Triple P applied to the parents of those children with a T1D diagnosis positively affects the mental health of the parents, their parental attitudes and the problematic behaviour of their children and also that the parents had less conflict with their children and the children had less conflict with their parents.Conclusion: It is suggested that further studies are carried out in different centres and cities with the Group Triple P Programme to widen the use of the Group Triple P Programme and also to plan future research where the Group Triple P programme and other programmes currently used in country can be compared.Publication Liver involvement in congenital hypopituitarism(Springer India, 2019-05-01) Altay, Derya; Eren, Erdal; EREN, ERDAL; Özkan, Tanju Başarır; Özgür, Taner; ÖZGÜR, TANER; Tarım, Ömer; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi.; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0001-5740-9729; 0000-0002-5322-5508; AAG-8381-2021; AAG-8416-2021; JPK-3909-2023ObjectiveCholestatic jaundice in early infancy is a complex diagnostic challenge. Cholestasis caused by endocrine disease is rare and poorly recognized. The aim of this paper is to report patients with liver dysfunctions resulting from hypopituitarism.MethodsSix patients with liver dysfunction diagnosed as hypopituitarism were studied and followed up atUludag University Faculty of Medicine.ResultsThe median age of the patients at first presentation was 2.5 mo. Three patients were diagnosed with congenital hypopituitarism at the first visit, and the other three were diagnosed during follow-up. Serum aminotransferase levels were very high in two patients and only moderately elevated in the others. Combined adrenal, thyroid, and growth hormone deficiencies were diagnosed in two patients, while remaining 4 patients had various combinations of adrenal, thyroid, and growth hormone deficiencies. Liver function abnormalities resolved between 10 d and 2 mo follow-up after hormone replacement therapy.ConclusionsAbnormal liver biochemical test results due to hormonal deficiencies in infants should be considered in the differential diagnosis by pediatricians. Hormone replacement therapy is the basis of treatment.Publication Genotype and phenotype heterogeneity in neonatal diabetes: A single centre experience in Turkey(Galenos Yayıncılık, 2021-03-01) Öngen, Yasemin Denkboy; Eren, Erdal; Demirbaş, Özgecan; Sobu, Elif; Ellard, Sian; De Franco, Elisa; Tarım, Ömer; DENKBOY ÖNGEN, YASEMİN; EREN, ERDAL; DEMİRBAŞ, ÖZGECAN; Sobu, Elif; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-5657-4260; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-6922-5203; 0000-0002-2037-7046; 0000-0002-5322-5508; KHZ-1491-2024 ; JPK-3909-2023; GQX-9760-2022 ; GSN-9730-2022; CCU-8073-2022Objective: Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) may be transient or permanent, and the majority is caused by genetic mutations. Early diagnosis is essential to select the patients who will respond to oral treatment. In this investigation, we aimed to present the phenotype and genotype of our patients with NDM and share our experience in a single tertiary center.Methods: A total of 16 NDM patients from 12 unrelated families are included in the study. The clinical presentation, age at diagnosis, perinatal and family history, consanguinity, gender, hemoglobin A1c, C-peptide, insulin, insulin autoantibodies, genetic mutations, and response to treatment are retrospectively evaluated.Results: The median age at diagnosis of diabetes was five months (4 days-18 months) although six patients with a confirmed genetic diagnosis were diagnosed >6 months. Three patients had KCNJ11 mutations, six had ABCC8 mutations, three had EIF2AK3 mutations, and one had a de novo INS mutation. All the permanent NDM patients with KCNJ11 and ABCC8 mutations were started on sulfonylurea treatment resulting in a significant increase in C-peptide level, better glycemic control, and discontinuation of insulin.Conclusion: Although NDM is defined as diabetes diagnosed during the first six months of life, and a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes is more common between the ages of 6 and 24 months, in rare cases NDM may present as late as 12 or even 24 months of age. Molecular diagnosis in NDM is important for planning treatment and predicting prognosis. Therefore, genetic testing is essential in these patients.Publication Magnetic resonance spectroscopy to assess hepatic steatosis in patients with lipodystrophy(Aves, 2020-08-01) Altay, Canan; Seçil, Mustafa; Adıyaman, Süleyman Cem; Saydam, Başak Özgen; Demir, Tevfik; Akıncı, Gülçin; Şimşir, Ilgın Yıdırım; Eren, Erdal; Keskin, Ela Temeloğlu; Demir, Leyla; Onay, Hüseyin; Topaloğlu, Haluk; Yürekli, Banu Sarer; Kutbay, Nilüfer Özdemir; Gen, Ramazan; Akıncı, Barış; EREN, ERDAL; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-1684-1053; JPK-3909-2023Background/Aims: Lipodystrophy is a rare metabolic disorder characterized by a near-total or partial lack of subcutaneous adipose tissue and is associated with insulin resistance. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) imaging to explore the fat content of the liver in patients with lipodystrophy and to determine the relationship between liver fat accumulation and clinical presentations of lipodystrophy. Materials andMethods: Between July 2014 and February 2016, 34 patients with lipodystrophy were assessed by MRS for the quantification of hepatic steatosis. All patients had metabolic abnormalities associated with insulin resistance. Metabolic parameters and the MRS findings were analyzed to identify potential correlations between liver fat content and disease severity.Results: The MRS fat ratios (MRS-FRs) were markedly higher, indicating severe hepatic steatosis in lipodystrophy. Patients with generalized and partial lipodystrophy had comparable levels of MRS-FRs, although patients with generalized lipodystrophy were significantly younger. Patients with genetic lipodystrophy had elevated MRS-FRs compared with those with acquired lipodystrophy (p=0.042). The MRS-FR was positively correlated with liver enzyme alanine aminotransferase (p=0.028) and serum adiponectin (p=0.043).Conclusion: Our data suggest that MRS might be an effective, non-invasive imaging method to quantify hepatic fat content in patients with lipodystrophy. Further studies are needed to validate the technique and threshold values, which would allow accurate comparison of data acquired by different machines and centers.Publication Evaluation of choroidal thickness in children with type 1 diabetes: The role of optical coherence tomography in diabetic retinopathy screening(Japanese Soc Pediatric Endocrinology, 2021-01-01) Ermerak, Basak Can; Yalcinbayir, Ozgur; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; Eren, Erdal; EREN, ERDAL; Erseven, Cansu; Sobu, Elif; Yucel, Ahmet Ali; YÜCEL, AHMET ALİ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Oftalmoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Endokrinoloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0002-1684-1053; JAC-9459-2023; AAH-6226-2021; IYJ-9408-2023; GSN-9730-2022; AAH-6625-2021The present study aimed to evaluate choroidal changes and alternations within the structure of the retina prior to visible morphologic signs of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in pediatric type 1 diabetes (T1D) cases. Two hundred and six eyes of 103 pediatric patients with T1D without DR and 88 eyes of 44 healthy controls were enrolled. They underwent a comprehensive ophthalmic examination and optical coherence tomography evaluation. Choroidal thickness (ChT) measurements were performed manually on macular and peripapillary regions. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age, intraocular pressure, and axial length (p > 0.05). ChT measurements of subfoveal, nasal, and temporal macula were slightly thinner in the diabetic group, and no statistical significance was found (p = 0.835, p = 0.305, and p = 0.054, respectively). Peripapillary ChT of eight sectors were also thinner in T1D; however, superonasal, nasal, inferonasal, and inferior sector values were significantly different (p = 0.010, p = 0.020, p = 0.019, and p = 0.018, respectively). In conclusion; this study demonstrated evidence of peripapillary choroidal thinning in pediatric diabetic patients without visible signs of retinopathy.Publication Clinical and laboratory follow up of pediatric craniopharyngioma cases(Bursa Uludag Universitesi, 2020-12-01) Sobu, Elif; Eren, Erdal; Sevinir, Betul; Taşkapılıoğlu, M. Özgür; Tarim, Omer; EREN, ERDAL; Sevinir, Betul; SEVİNİR, BETÜL BERRİN; Tarım, Ömer; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Bursa Uludağ Üniveristesi/Tıp Fakültesi; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-3232-7652; 0000-0001-5472-9065; 0000-0002-5322-5508; GSN-9730-2022; JPK-3909-2023; AAH-1570-2021INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and laboratory findings and follow up of endocrine status of pediatric craniopharyngioma cases.MATERIALS and METHODS: The patients diagnosed with craniopharyngioma between January 2010-December 2017 were included in this study. Demographic and clinical findings were retrospectively examined from medical records of Uludag University Medical Faculty Pediatric Endocinology Department. Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS software version 21.RESULTS: We identified a total of 28 patients with craniopharyngioma during this period. The age of the patients ranged from 60 to 207 months, with a median age of 138.5 months. Fifty-three percent (n=15) of cases were male and forty-seven percent (n=13) of the cases were female. The most common presenting complaints were headache, visual impairment, and short stature in decreasing order. Tumor size was greater than 3 cm in 71% (n: 20) of patients at the time of diagnosis. When the endocrine status of the patients were examined in the preoperative period, it was determined that 17% (n: 5) of the cases had growth hormone deficiency, 14% (n: 4) had hypothyroidism, 10% (n: 3) had cortisol deficiency, and 7.1% (n: 2) had diabetes insipidus. In the postoperative period, panhypopituitarism developed in 89.3% (n: 25) of the cases.CONCLUSIONS: Craniopharyngiomas are slow-growing tumors, the tumor is usually diagnosed late and reaches large sizes. Late diagnosis and large tumor size often lead to more serious endocrine losses. Failure to thrive and progressive weight gain are stimulating findings for early diagnosis of pituitary masses.Publication Prevalence of obesity in prepubertal and pubertal with Turkish population type 1 diabetes(Springer, 2021-02-18) Özkaya, Volkan; Özgen Ozkaya, Sebnem; Eren, Erdal; EREN, ERDAL; Denkboy Ongen, Yasemin; DENKBOY ÖNGEN, YASEMİN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Endokrinoloji Anabilim Dalı.To determine the prevalence of prepubertal and pubertal obesity in children and adolescents with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (Type 1 DM). One hundred fifty children and adolescents aged 6-18 years with Type 1 DM who attended the Pediatric Endocrinology Polyclinic and were diagnosed with type 1 DM were included in the study. Tanner staging was used to estimate pubertal status. Age- and gender-specific body mass index (BMI) percentile between 85 and 95% was accepted as overweight and > 95% as obese. It was determined that the overweight prevalence rates in children and adolescents with type 1 DM were 13.3% and the obesity rate was 14.3%. It was found that while the overweight prevalence rates (14.1%) were higher in males, the obesity prevalence was higher in females (19.0%). The obesity prevalence rates at the prepubertal and pubertal stages were found to be 17.1% and 13.8%, respectively. The obesity prevalence at the pubertal stage was higher in girls (22.4%) than boys (3.9%) (p < 0.05). The rates both of overweight and obesity in boys decreased from prepubertal to pubertal periods, while those rates increased in girls. Our results indicated that the obesity prevalence in prepubertal and pubertal children and adolescents with type 1 DM was higher compared to healthy peers in the literature. The authors believe that the risk factors for obesity in this population should be determined and obesity-prevention programs for diabetes should be prepared.Publication Telemedicine experiences at a pediatric endocrinology clinic during the COVID-19 pandemic(Springer, 2021-06-07) Denkboy Öngen, Yasemin; Eren, Erdal; Şahin, Kadriye Cansu; Buhur Pirimoğlu, Meltem; Sağlam, Halil; Tarim, Ömer; DENKBOY ÖNGEN, YASEMİN; EREN, ERDAL; ŞAHİN, KADRİYE CANSU; BUHUR PİRİMOĞLU, MELTEM; SAĞLAM, HALİL; TARIM, ÖMER FARUK; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-6598-8262; 0000-0002-5657-4260; KHZ-1491-2024; JPK-3909-2023; GLN-8241-2022; CCU-8073-2022Background The coronavirus 19 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected all aspects of life, including the routine follow-up of patients with chronic illnesses. In this study, we aim to share our experience of telemedicine in our pediatric endocrinology clinic during the pandemic. Methods We were able to continue caring for children with endocrine disorders using various communication methods such as e-mail and e-message. Results A total of 267 patients received telemedicine care over the course of 608 contacts. The number of hospital visits and physical contact was effectively reduced to help protect against the COVID-19 infection. The patients were supported in terms of receiving their prescriptions and patient education also continued. No complications were observed. Conclusion The advantages and disadvantages of telemedicine were discussed and consequently, we propose that telemedicine can be utilized to maintain and continue the care of children with endocrine disorders during and even after the pandemic. Further studies are needed to standardize this method for general use.Publication Psychomotor delay in a child with fgfr3 g380r pathogenic mutation causing achondroplasia(Thieme Medical Publication, 2021-05-21) Ergoren, Mahmut C.; Manara, Elena; Paolacci, Stefano; Tulay, Pinar; Bertelli, Matteo; Mocan, Gamze; Eren, Erdal; EREN, ERDAL; Sag, Sebnem O.; ÖZEMRİ SAĞ, ŞEBNEM; Temel, Sehime Gulsun; TEMEL, ŞEHİME GÜLSÜN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Pediatrik Endokrinoloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0001-9593-9325; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0002-1176-3359; 0000-0002-9552-221X; 0000-0002-9802-0880; AAZ-6885-2021; AAY-1413-2020; GQP-2509-2022; JPK-3909-2023; D-8491-2018Achondroplasia (ACH) is a hereditary disorder of dwarfism that is caused by the aberrant proliferation and differentiation of chondrocyte growth plates. The common findings of macrocephaly and facial anomalies accompany dwarfism in these patients. Fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 ( FGFR3 ) gene mutations are common causes of achondroplasia. The current study presents a case of 2-year-old male presenting with phenotypic characteristics of ACH. The interesting finding of the case is the presence of psychomotor delay that is not very common in these patients. Clinical exome sequencing analyzing 4.813 disease causing genes revealed a de novo c.1138G>A mutation within the FGFR3 gene. In conclusion, the mutation confirms the clinical diagnosis of ACH, and it seems to be causing the psychomotor delay in this patient.Publication Three different faces of taci mutations(Wiley, 2020-04-08) Çekic, Şükrü; Çicek, Fatih; Karalı, Yasin; Görükmez, Orhan; Eren, Erdal; Kılıç, Sara Şebnem; ÇEKİÇ, ŞÜKRÜ; ÇİÇEK, FATİH; KARALI, YASİN; EREN, ERDAL; KILIÇ GÜLTEKİN, SARA ŞEBNEM; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Pediatrik Alerji ve Klinik İmmünoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Endokrinolojisi Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-9574-1842; 0000-0001-7348-7081; 0000-0002-1684-1053; 0000-0001-8571-2581; 0000-0002-1245-4232; AAH-1658-2021; JPK-3909-2023; JKI-5906-2023; L-1933-2017; FFS-1974-2022
