Segurança do paciente idoso e gerenciamento de serviços de enfermagem em instituições de longa permanência
(Science Editorial, 2025) Aydoğdu, Ana Luiza Ferreira; Türkmen, Meryem Feyza
O envelhecimento populacional é uma realidade global. Nesse contexto, as instituições de longa permanência para idosos surgem como alternativas viáveis para garantir assistência e suporte contínuo a essa população. A presente reflexão teórica teve como objetivo analisar o papel essencial da gerência em Enfermagem na garantia da segurança dos residentes de Instituições de Longa Permanência para Idosos (ILPIs). Para tanto, foi realizada uma pesquisa bibliográfica em diversas bases de dados (Web of Science (WoS) Core Collection, Scopus, PubMed e Google Acadêmico) no mês de março de 2023. As principais ameaças à saúde dos residentes das ILPIs estão relacionadas à ocorrência de úlceras por pressão, quedas e infecções, especialmente, infecções urinárias. Esses eventos adversos estão associados a condições inadequadas de higiene, ao número insuficiente de cuidadores e profissionais na equipe de Enfermagem e à falta de treinamento de pessoal. Diante disso, determinou-se que o papel desempenhado pelos administradores das instituições de longa permanência, e pelos gerentes de Enfermagem, é essencial para garantir a segurança dos residentes. Para isso, é fundamental a implementação de programas de educação continuada, a promoção de um ambiente seguro e saudável, a contratação e retenção de um número adequado de profissionais qualificados, além do estabelecimento de diretrizes e orientações para a prevenção de eventos adversos.

(AVES, 2025) Çetin, Ferhat; Göncüoğlu, Enver Şükrü; Abalı, Saygın; Arslanoğlu, İlknur; Deyneli, Oğuzhan; Telci Çaklılı, Özge; Yalın Turna, Hülya; Şahiner, Elif; Güzel, Dila; Yılmaz, Mehmet Temel
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the self-learning capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. The hypothesis was that if the success of closed-loop insulin delivery is mainly attributed to AI algorithms, then the improvement in glycemic control would be more signifi cant just after the “learning” phase. Methods: The Medtrum A8 TouchCare® Nano system was used on 15 patients with type 1 diabetes. Daily continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data pre-automated insulin delivery (AID) was statisti cally compared with the post-AID period. Results: Patients (median age 32 (6-54) years, 40% female) had a median HbA1c of 8.4% (5.3-10.7) before initiation of AID and a median GMI of 6.6% (5.8-8.3) after 2 weeks. The shifts in glycemia and glycemic variability between the 5-day period pre-AID vs. the first day and the 3 5-day periods post-AID were significant (pre-AID vs. 1-5-10-15 days; time in range (TIR, %): 55.9 vs. 76.6-81.7-83.8- 81.5 (P=.001); Q1 (mg/dL): 123 vs. 112-108-106-110 (P=.009); Q3 (mg/dL): 204 vs. 176-173-168-169 (P=.004); inter-quarter range (IQR, mg/dL): 78 vs. 57.2-56.6-53-55 (P=.002)). The biggest shift in TIR was achieved in the first day (10.1%). Comparative analysis of the 5-day intervals post-AID was insig nificant by means of the improvement in glycemia (P > .05). No significant change in glycemic param eters between 15, 30, and 90 days were noted (P > .05). Conclusion: Artificial intelligence-augmented AID becomes effective at the very early stages of initia tion. There is a need for further research into glycemic changes in the early days of AID initiation to better define the principles of initiating AID systems.
Cytotoxic and anti-migratory effects of polyphenolic compounds on breast cancer cells by altering Jam-A, LFA-1, and VLA-4 gene expression
(Taylor & Francis, 2025) Özkara, Gülçin; Ceviz, Ayşe Begüm; Eronat, Allison Pinar; Pehlevan Karabıyık, Funda; Candan, Gonca; Özturk, Oğuz; Yılmaz Aydoğan, Hülya
This study represents the initial research of the effects of a com bination of the largest number (13) of different polyphenic sub stances (PFK5120), formulated based on the propolis content on cell viability, migration and expression of lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), very late antigen-4 (VLA-4) and junction adhesion molecule A (Jam-A) in breast cancer (BC) cells. PFK5120 negatively affected cell viability at a 5% concentra tion as compared with unexposed ones (p<0.001). Treatment with 20% PFK5120 for 48h down-regulated Jam-A in MCF-7 and MCF-10A, up-regulated LFA-1 in MCF-10A and MDA-MB-231, and down-regulated VLA-4 in MCF-10A and MDA-MB-231 (p<0.001). Furthermore, migration was found to be inhibited by PFK5120 at varying doses and times. Migration was completely inhibited by 35% PFK5120 treatment in MDA-MB-231, while even lower concen trations (10%) were effective in MCF-7. Current findings indicate that PFK5120 represents a valuable natural component of BC ther apy through its cytotoxic and anti-migratory effects.

(Pera Yayıncılık, 2025) Coşkun, Osman; Yiğit, Mehmet; Çelikgün, Beyza; Ok, Fatma; Ertaş, Ahmet; Gayretli, Özcan
Objective: The asterion is an important cranial anatomical landmark used in surgical approaches to the posterior cranial fossa, which is one of the most complex and surgically challenging regions of human anatomy due to the density of neurovascular structures. This study aims to examine the morphological and morphometric variations of the asterion to determine its preoperative localisation and help neurosurgeons reduce possible complications by providing an understanding of the detailed anatomy of the asterion in surgical approaches applied in posterior cranial fossa pathologies. Methods: In our study, adult human dry skull specimens (44 intact, 104 hemi skulls) with unknown demographic data were analysed. The asterions were first examined morphologically and categorised into two classifications. These classifications were based on the presence of wormian bone and the distance from the Frankfurt horizontal plane (FHP). Morphometric measurements were based on anatomical landmarks in the human skull. The landmarks used in the measurements were the lambda (L), FHP, the root of the zygomatic arch (RZA), the tip of the mastoid process (TMP), Henle’s spine (HS), external occipital protuberance (EOP), basion (B), opisthion (O) and porion (P). Results: The morphological classification of the asterions was examined. Type 1 and Type 2 were determined as 13.02% and 86.98%, respectively, according to the presence of the wormian bone. In the classification, according to the distance to the FHP, Type 1 was 9.90%, Type 2 was 58.85% and Type 3 was 31.25%. In morphometric measurements, the mean distance of the asterion to L was 85.16 ± 5.64 mm and 84.41 ± 5.43 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to the FHP was 13.17 ± 6.81 mm and 14.01 ± 6.96 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to the RZA was 56.18 ± 3.58 mm and 56.64 ± 3.69 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to the TMP was 49.42 ± 4.16 mm and 48.91 ± 4.03 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to HS was 46.15 ± 3.74 mm and 46.69 ± 3.79 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to the EOP was 63.19 ± 4.13 mm and 62.71 ± 4.07 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to B was 73.50 ± 3.73 mm and 72.96 ± 3.51 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. The mean distance of the asterion to O was 62.46 ± 2.88 mm and 62.23 ± 2.85 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. Finally, the mean distance of the asterion to P was 49.51 ± 3.87 mm and 50.32 ± 3.94 mm on the right and left sides, respectively. Conclusion: The results obtained in our study suggest that the accurate preoperative positioning of the asterion may contribute to reducing complications that may develop in neurosurgeons’ surgical approaches to the posterior cranial fossa.
The validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the patient’s knee implant performance (PKIP) questionnaire-preoperative and postoperative
(Wolters Kluwer Healt, 2025) Şahan, Nilay; Atasavun Uysal, Songül; Parmaksız, Ayhan; Aydın, Erbil
The Patient’s Knee Implant Performance (PKIP) Questionnaire is a short and easy-to-complete questionnaire developed to assess the performance of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) more comprehensively. The aim of this study was to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the PIKP questionnaire before (PKIP PreOp) and after (PKIP PostOp) TKA. The study included 162 patients referred for TKA and 154 patients who had undergone the surgery at least 3 months prior. Cronbach alpha, intra class correlation coefficient, and item-total correlation values were calculated to assess the reliability of the PIKP questionnaire. Validity was determined using exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. To determine parallel scale validity, the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), The Short Form-36 (SF-36) Quality of Life Scale performance score were used. The mean age of the participants was 66.39 ± 7.65 years. Cronbach alpha and intra-class correlation coefficient values of the PKIP were acceptable (0.723 and 0.985, respectively). The item-total correlation values of each item of the PKIP was also acceptable (lowest ranged from 0.335 to 0.621). Confirmatory and exploratory factor analysis revealed that the both PKIP PreOp and PKIP PostOp studies had sufficient fit. The PKIP PreOp and PKIP PostOp was moderately to strongly correlated with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index and Short Form-36 score (P < .001). Patients undergoing TKA had a significantly higher PKIP PostOp score than PKIP PreOp score. The Turkish version of the PKIP is valid, reliable, and sensitive to assess in performance in patients undergoing TKA.
