    The novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak has spread worldwide, and the World Health Organization (WHO) declared a global pandemic in March 2020. The transmission mechanism of SARS-CoV-2 in indoor environments has begun to be investigated in all aspects. In this regard, many numerical studies on social distancing and the protection of surgical masks against infection risk have neglected the evaporation of the particles. Meanwhile, a 1.83 m (6 feet) social distancing rule has been recommended to reduce the infection risk. However, it should be noted that most of the studies were conducted in static air conditions. Air movement in indoor environments is chaotic, and it is not easy to track all droplets in a ventilated room experimentally. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) enables the tracking of all particles in a ventilated environment. This study numerically investigated the airborne transmission of infectious droplets in a hospital examination room cooled by a split-type air conditioner with the CFD method. Different inlet velocities (1, 2, 3 m/s) were considered and investigated separately. Besides, the hospital examination room is a model of one of the Bursa Uludag University Hospital examination rooms. The patient, doctor, and some furniture are modeled in the room. Particle diameters considered ranged from 2 to 2000 mu m. The evaporation of the droplets is not neglected, and the predictions of particle tracks are shown. As a result, locations with a high infection risk were identified, and the findings that could guide the design/redesign of the hospital examination rooms were evaluated.

    Background and Aim: In 10-30% of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, toxic reactions occur after fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy. A dihydropyridine dehydrogenase (DPYD) gene variant, c.1905 + 1G>A, leads to intolerance to fluoropyrimidines. Due to the low frequency of this variant in many populations, the prevalence of fluoropyrimidine-induced hematologic side effects in CRC patients with the c.1905 + 1G>A variant is unclear. In this study, we investigated the prevalence of the DPYD c.1905 + 1 variants in a Turkish CRC cohort and the potential effects of these variants on fluoropyrimidine-induced hematologic side effects.Materials and Methods: The DPYD c.1905 + 1 variant was genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis and confirmed by Sanger sequencing in peripheral blood samples of 100 CRC patients who received fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy and 60 healthy volunteers. The association of c.1905 + 1 variants with susceptibility to hematologic side effects was evaluated.Results: The DPYD c.1905 + 1G>A variant was more common in the CRC group than in the healthy control group (p = 0.001). The presence of the c.1905 + 1G>A variant was associated with thrombocytopenia (p = 0.039) and anemia (p = 0.035). CRC patients with fluoropyrimidine-induced anemia had shorter disease-free survival than CRC patients without fluoropyrimidine-induced anemia (p = 0.0009).Conclusions: Before administering fluoropyrimidine-based chemotherapy, genetic screening for the DPYD c.1905 + 1G>A variant should be performed with the aim of preventing anemia and anemia-induced complications in CRC patients.

    Thrombotic and microangiopathic effects have been reported in COVID-19 patients. This study examined the contribution of the hereditary thrombophilia factors Prothrombin (FII) and Factor V Leiden (FVL) genotypes to the severity of COVID-19 disease and the development of thrombosis. This study investigated FII and FVL alleles in a cohort of 9508 patients (2606 male and 6902 female) with thrombophilia. It was observed that 930 of these patients had been infected by SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19. The demographic characteristics of the patients and their COVID-19 medical history were recorded. Detailed clinical manifestations were analyzed in a group of cases (n = 4092). This subgroup was age and gender-matched. FII and FVL frequency data of healthy populations without thrombophilia risk were obtained from Bursa Uludag University Medical Genetic Department's Exome Databank. The ratio of males (31.08%; 27.01%) and the mean age (36.85 & PLUSMN; 15.20; 33.89 & PLUSMN; 14.14) were higher among COVID-19 patients compared to non-COVID-19 patients. The prevalence of FVL and computerized tomography (CT) positivity in COVID-19 patients was statistically significant in the thrombotic subgroup (p < 0.05). FVL prevalence, CT positivity rate, history of thrombosis, and pulmonary thromboembolism complication were found to be higher in deceased COVID-19 patients (p < 0.05). Disease severity was mainly affected by FVL and not related to genotypes at the Prothrombin mutations. Overall, disease severity and development of thrombosis in COVID-19 are mainly affected by the variation within the FVL gene. Possible FVL mutation should be investigated in COVID-19 patients and appropriate treatment should be started earlier in FVL-positive patients.

    Alzheimer disease associated loci: APOE single nucleotide polymorphisms in Marmara Region
    (MDPİ, 2024-05-01) Ismail, Aya Badeea; Dundar, Mehmet Sait; Erguzeloglu, Cemre Ornek; Ergoren, Mahmut Cerkez; Alemdar, Adem; Sag, Sebnem Ozemri; Temel, Sehime Gulsun; Alemdar, Adem; ALEMDAR, ADEM; Sağ, Şebnem Özemri; ÖZEMRİ SAĞ, ŞEBNEM; Temel, Şehime Gülsün; TEMEL, ŞEHİME GÜLSÜN; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Genetik Anabilim Dalı.; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Histoloji ve Embriyoloji Anabilim Dalı.
    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major global health challenge, especially among individuals aged 65 or older. According to population health studies, Turkey has the highest AD prevalence in the Middle East and Europe. To accurately determine the frequencies of common and rare APOE single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the Turkish population residing in the Marmara Region, we conducted a retrospective study analyzing APOE variants in 588 individuals referred to the Bursa Uludag University Genetic Diseases Evaluation Center. Molecular genotyping, clinical exome sequencing, bioinformatics analysis, and statistical evaluation were employed to identify APOE polymorphisms and assess their distribution. The study revealed the frequencies of APOE alleles as follows: epsilon 4 at 9.94%, epsilon 2 at 9.18%, and epsilon 3 at 80.68%. The gender-based analysis in our study uncovered a tendency for females to exhibit a higher prevalence of mutant genotypes across various SNPs. The most prevalent haplotype observed was epsilon 3/epsilon 3, while rare APOE SNPs were also identified. These findings align with global observations, underscoring the significance of genetic diversity and gender-specific characteristics in comprehending health disparities and formulating preventive strategies.
