Publication Efficacy of dexamethasone implants in uveitic macular edema in cases with behcet disease(Karger, 2019-01-01) Yalçınbayır, Özgür; Çalışkan, Enver; Gündüz, Gamze Uçan; Gelişken, Öner; Kaderli, Berkant; Yücel, Ahmet Ali; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; Çalışkan, Enver; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; YÜCEL, AHMET ALİ; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; JAC-9459-2023; EQX-5743-2022; AAH-6661-2021; JYV-1141-2024Purpose: Investigation of the efficacy of intravitreal dexamethasone implants (0.7 mg) in patients with Behcet disease (BD) who had cystoid macular edema (CME) despite immunomodulatory treatment. Materials and Methods: Twenty-seven eyes of 20 patients who had intravitreal dexamethasone implant injections and follow-up for more than 6 months were included in this study. Best corrected visual acuities (BCVA), intraocular pressures (IOP), and central macular thicknesses (CMT) were recorded. Systemic immunomodulatory treatment was noted. Injection-related complications and the need for recurrent injections were recorded. Results: Statistically significant anatomical and functional success was achieved with a single injection. BCVA increased from 0.85 +/- 0.72 to 0.45 +/- 0.52 logMAR, while the mean CMT decreased from 406 +/- 190 to 243 +/- 101 mu m at the sixth month. The peak of visual acuity gain was reached within the first 2 months and a substantial proportion of the patients gained 3 or more lines. There was no complication other than transient IOP elevation in 4 eyes and cataract surgery in 2 eyes. Conclusion: Adjuvant intravitreal dexamethasone implant injections offer promising results in cases of BD with CME. It is effective in preserving the macular anatomy and vision particularly in transition to biological agents.Publication A rare case of recurrence presenting with bilateral exudative retinal detachment in a child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(Wiley, 2021-08-16) Yalçınbayır, Özgür; Sezgin Evim, Melike; Uçan Gündüz, Gamze; Güler, Salih; Meral Güneş, Adalet; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; SEZGİN EVİM, MELİKE; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; GÜLER, SALİH; MERAL GÜNEŞ, ADALET; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Hematoloji Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0002-1219-8304; 0000-0002-5458-1686; 0000-0002-4792-269X; 0000-0002-0686-7129; IYJ-9408-2023; AAH-1452-2021; AAH-6661-2021; DWH-8632-2022; EXD-8400-2022Publication 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 outcomes of posterior segment intraocular foreign bodies: The volume effect(Masson Editeur, 2021-05-12) Gündüz, Gamze Uçan; Yalçınbayir, Özgür; Güllülü, Zeynep Zahide; Özkaya, Gamze; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; GÜLLÜLÜ, ZEYNEP ZAHİDE; ÖZKAYA, Gamze; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/İstatistik Anabilim Dalı; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0003-0297-846X; 0000-0002-1219-8304; AAH-6661-2021; IYJ-9408-2023; FAZ-3274-2022; A-4421-2016Purpose. - To assess the effect of foreign body volume on visual and anatomic outcomes in patients with a posterior segment intraocular foreign body (IOFB).Methods. - Patients were divided into three groups according to the volume of the IOFB; group 1 (n = 18 eyes) with IOFBs< 2 mm(3), group 2 (n = 15 eyes) with 2 mm(3) <= IOFBs < 6 mm(3), group 3 (n = 18 eyes) with IOFBs >= 6 mm(3). AU eyes underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) for removal of the IOFB. Demographic characteristics, features of the injury and IOFB, findings of the initial and final ophthalmological examinations, and timing of IOFB removal were studied.Results. - The mean age was 38.8 +/- 12.0 years, and the median follow-up period was 12.0 (range: 6-98) months. Initial visual acuity (VA) was significantly lower in group 3 (P= 0.005), while final VA was similar between the three subgroups. Frequencies of primary globe repair, initial vitreous hemorrhage (VH), corneoscleral entry, and IOFB removal through the cornea were significantly higher in eyes with large volume IOFBs (P<0.05). Siderosis was only seen in 4 patients in group 1 (22.2%). No patients developed postoperative endophthalmitis.Conclusion. - Large volume posterior segment IOFBs are associated with poor initial VA, initial VH and corneoscleral injury. Nevertheless, PPV and IOFB extraction under favorable conditions may provide significant visual improvement in eyes with large volume IOFBs. (C) 2021 Elsevier Masson SAS.

This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety of infliximab (IFX) and adalimumab (ADA) in pediatric noninfectious uveitis that were refractory to conventional immunosuppresives.Methods: This retrospective single-center study included 33 patients who were treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) agents (16 with IFX and 17 with ADA). Patients had diverse etiologies, including juvenile idiopathic arthritis, idiopathic uveitis, and Behcet's disease. Demographic characteristics, systemic diagnosis, findings of the ophthalmological examination, control of ocular inflammation, response to treatment, and the rate of clinical remission were studied.Results: Fourteen (87.5%) patients receiving IFX and 10 (58.8%) patients receiving ADA achieved response to treatment during the follow-up (P = 0.118). The agents were discontinued with complete clinical remission in 6 (37.5%) patients receiving IFX and in 2 (11.8%) patients receiving ADA (P = 0.118). Baseline visual acuities and parameters of inflammation improved significantly in both groups after anti-TNF therapy.Conclusion: Both IFX and ADA are safe and effective for pediatric noninfectious uveitis.Publication Herpes zoster ophthalmicus and lateral rectus palsy in an elderly patient(Karger, 2011-01-01) Yalçınbayır, Özgür; Yıldız, Meral; Gündüz, Gamze Ucan; Gelişken, Öner; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; YILDIZ, MERAL; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; Gelişken, Öner; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0002-5458-1686; HPH-3842-2023; AAH-6661-2021; KBU-8934-2024; EXE-4887-2022Acquired palsy of the lateral rectus presents with horizontal diplopia and has a broad differential.

Visual acuity improved significantly in the 1st month of IFX treatment (P = 0.026). Partial response to treatment was achieved in 91.4% of cases.Conclusion. - IFX is a safe and effective treatment in cases of BU refractory to conventional IMT.Publication Different cases, different manifestations of post-covid-19 retinal artery occlusion: A case series(Galenos Publ House, 2023-04-01) Yalçınbayır, Özgür; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; Gündüz, Gamze Uçan; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; Coşkun, Funda; COŞKUN, NECMİYE FUNDA; Hakyemez, Bahattin; HAKYEMEZ, BAHATTİN; DOĞANAY, SELİM; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Oftalmloloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Pulmoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Radyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0002-5458-1686; 0000-0003-3604-8826; IYJ-9408-2023; AAD-1271-2019; AAH-6225-2021Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a procoagulant disease that increases the risk of clinically evident thrombotic complications. Herein we present 3 cases with different retinal artery occlusions that emerged soon after the diagnosis of COVID-19. The first patient had central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) that resulted in visual loss in one eye. The second patient had inflammatory peripheral retinal artery occlusion, vasculitis, and uveitis which did not affect vision. The third patient presented with CRAO following the progression from orbital cellulitis to orbital apex syndrome. Interestingly, CRAO progressed to internal carotid artery occlusion in this case within days and resulted in monocular visual loss. Variations in the underlying pathophysiology and the characteristics of individual immune responses in patients with COVID-19 may be factors that determine differences in clinical manifestations. This article aims to describe different presentations of COVID-19-related retinal artery occlusions and discuss possible pathophysiological aspects.Publication A comprehensive assessment of long-term complications in patients with stevens-johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis(Karger, 2023-07-26) Çekiç, Sükrü; Canıtez, Yakup; Yüksel, Hale; Gündüz, Gamze Ucan; Karalı, Zühal; Yalçınbayır, Özgür; Vural, Pınar; Sapan, Nihat; ÇEKİÇ, ŞÜKRÜ; CANITEZ, YAKUP; Yüksel, Hale; UÇAN GÜNDÜZ, GAMZE; KARALI, ZUHAL; VURAL, AYŞE PINAR; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; SAPAN, NİHAT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk Alerjisi Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Çocuk ve Ergen Psikiyatrisi Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0002-9574-1842; 0009-0002-4004-449X; 0000-0002-5458-1686; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0001-8929-679X; L-1933-2017; AAH-1789-2021; IZZ-9492-2023; AAH-6661-2021; CZC-9168-2022; IYJ-9408-2023; GIK-1690-2022; FUI-8766-2022Introduction: Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and SJS/TEN overlap syndrome are rare severe hypersensitivity reactions that lead to epithelial sloughing. Studies investigating the chronic multisystem effects of these syndromes and assessing patients in terms of quality of life (QOL), depression, and anxiety in the pediatric population are limited. In this study, we aimed to investigate the long-term effects of these diseases from a multisystem perspective. Method: Sixteen pediatric patients diagnosed with SJS, TEN, and SJS/TEN overlap syndrome were evaluated between September 2020 and March 2021. Physical and eye examinations were performed. To evaluate QOL and psychological status, Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI), Screen for Child Anxiety-Related Emotional Disorders (SCARED), and Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) were conducted. The patients' general characteristics, symptoms, and examination findings at their first admission were retrospectively obtained from the hospital's electronic records. Results: Nineteen percent of the patients were female (n = 3). There were 7 patients (44%) with the diagnosis of SJS, 5 patients (31%) with TEN, and 4 patients (25%) with SJS/TEN overlap. The median follow-up time of the subjects was 6.5 years. The most common sequelae in the chronic period were skin changes (n = 13, 81%). Hyperpigmentation was the most common skin change (n = 9, 56%). In the last evaluation, 9 cases had eye involvement. In two cases, eye examination was normal in the acute phase, while ocular involvement was present in the chronic period. In 4 (50%) patients, there was height and/or weight percentile loss. Three patients' SCARED scores and 2 patients' CDI scores were high. According to the CDLQI survey, SJS, TEN, or SJS/TEN overlap syndrome had a small to moderate effect on the QOL in the 43% (n = 6) of the patients. The ANA values of 3 patients (60%) were positive at the follow-up and negative at the first admission. Conclusion: SJS, TEN, and SJS/TEN overlap syndrome may cause sequelae even after a long time of the onset of the disease. Patients' QOL and psychological status can be affected negatively. Ocular symptoms may develop in the follow-up, even without involvement in the acute period. Patients with SJS, TEN, and SJS/TEN overlap syndrome should be followed up in the chronic period and approached multidisciplinary.Publication A rare presentation of cat-scratch disease: A case report with neuroretinitis and review of cases reported from Turkey(Doc Design Informatics Co Ltd, 2022-09-01) Çınar, Tuğba; ÖNAL, UĞUR; ÇINAR, TUĞBA; YALÇINBAYIR, ÖZGÜR; Yalçınbayır, Özgür; Akalın, Halis; AKALIN, EMİN HALİS; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Tıbbi Mikrobiyoloji Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Göz Hastalıkları Anabilim Dalı.; 0000-0001-6194-3254; 0000-0002-7311-5277; 0000-0001-7530-1279; ACQ-7832-2022; JCO-3678-2023; AAU-8952-2020; IYJ-9408-2023Neuroretinitis is a rare presentation of cat-scratch disease caused by Bartonella henselae. In this case report, we aimed to describe a 46-year-old male patient who presented with acute visual loss and was diagnosed as neuroretinitis. Fundus examination showed evidence of optic disc edema, macular star, and peripapillary hemorrhagia. The serological tests were positive for Bartonella with both IgM and IgG titers as 1/320. He was successfully treated with doxycycline for eight weeks. Both clinical and serological improvements were observed during the follow-up.
