Article Hydrogel burn dressing effectiveness in burn pain(Elsevier, 2023) Akelma, Hakan; Çelik, Enes; Department of Surgical Medical Sciences / Cerrahi Tıp Bilimleri BölümüSevere burns are painful and dramatic injuries. Studies show that pain is underestimated and often not adequately treated. This study aims to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of hydrogel burn dressing and silver sulfadiazine, which are two agents commonly used in first-aid dressings for burn patients. This study, designed as a prospective, observational, and cross-sectional study. Study included 64 pediatric patients admitted to our burn center between 01.03.2020 and 01.09.2020 who were examined by our burn service after their first treatment in the emergency dressing room. Two groups of patients were included in the study. Pain level was assessed in the dressing room before and 10 min after the procedure using the Visual Analog Scale and FLACC (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) pain assessment scales.During the study period, Burnaid® was applied to 62.5% of patients (40 patients) and silver sulfadiazine to 37.5% (24 patients). In terms of pain scores, pre-dressing FLACC values were higher in Group B (p = 0.039); post-dressing VAS and FLACC values were significantly lower in group B (p 0.001; p 0.001). In terms of additional analgesia, we found more patients in Group S received analgesics (p 0.001).We believe that its effect on burn wound pain is superior to that of silver sulfadiazine.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Laparoscopic versus open portoenterostomy for treatment of biliary atresia: a meta-analysis(SpringerLink, 2023) Bilici, Salim; Mehmet Hanif Okur, Bahattin Aydoğdu, Mustafa Azizoğlu, Salim Bilici, Salih Bayram, Fikret Salik; Department of Surgical Medical Sciences / Cerrahi Tıp Bilimleri BölümüAbstract Objective Our goal was to compare laparoscopic portoenterostomy versus open portoenterostomy for the treatment of biliary atresia. Materials and methods Using the databases EMBASE, PubMed, and Cochrane, we carried out a thorough literature search up to 2022. Studies comparing laparoscopic and open surgery for the treatment of biliary atresia were included. Results Twenty-three studies comparing laparoscopic portoenterostomy (LPE) (n=689) and open portoenterostomy (OPE) (n=818) were considered appropriate for meta-analysis. Age at surgery time was lower in the LPE group than OPE group (I 2=84%), (WMD − 4.70, 95% CI − 9.14 to − 0.26; P=0.04). Signifcantly decreased blood loss (I 2=94%), (WMD − 17.85, 95% CI − 23.67 to − 12.02; P<0.00001) and time to feed were found in the laparoscopic group (I 2=97%), (WMD − 2.88, 95% CI − 4.71 to − 1.04; P=0.002). Signifcantly decreased operative time was found in the open group (I 2=85%), (WMD 32.52, 95% CI 15.65–49.39; P=0.0002). Weight, transfusion rate, overall complication rate, cholangitis, time to drain removal, length of stay, jaundice clearance, and two-year transplant-free survival were not signifcantly diferent across the groups. Conclusions Laparoscopic portoenterostomy provides advantages regarding operative bleeding and the time to begin feeding. No diferences in remain characteristics. Based on the data presented to us by this meta-analysis, LPE is not superior to OPE in terms of overall results.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Oxidative Stress Enzyme NOX1 Is a New and Important Biomarker for Childhood Appendicitis?(SpringerLink, 2023) Bilici, Salim; Ayengin, Kemal; Huyut, Zubeyir; Huyut, Mehmet Tahir; Soysal, Lokman; Bilici, Salim; Department of Surgical Medical Sciences / Cerrahi Tıp Bilimleri BölümüDelayed appendicitis diagnosis may result in perforation and an increased risk of mortality. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic value of ischemia-modifed albumin, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 1, 2, and 4 levels in the diagnosis of non-complicated and complicated appendicitis. The study included 60 pediatric patients who presented to our clinic with a complaint of abdominal pain and underwent surgery with a diagnosis of appendicitis between November 2020 and December 2021 and also included 30 controls. Cases were divided into three groups: (i) non-complicated appendicitis (n = 30), (ii) complicated appendicitis (n = 30), and (iii) control (n = 30). The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 1 and 4 and ischemia-modifed albumin levels were higher in non-complicated and complicated appendicitis compared to the control (p < 0.001). In addition, considering the odds ratio values, the most efective biomarkers in the diagnosis were nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 1 and 2, and procalcitonin, while the most efective biomarkers in the prognosis were nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 1 and 2, and neotrophil/lymphocyte ratios. The data suggested that since the most successful biomarker nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 1, with a value of 0.98- area under the curve, is the most successful biomarker in both diagnosis and prognosis of the disease, it can be used as an important biomarker in childhood appendicitis.
