Gut mucosa in the rats exposed temporary mechanical obstruction fed with probiotic.
Created a model in the rats, to prevent mucosal damage and related effects in the patients, who were operated due to mechanical obstruction. Some groups fed fodder with probiotics, some groups fed with standard fodder. It is objected that the damage of gut mucosa and related effects on how to expose the differences of the groups. ⋯ The findings suggest that the high rate of mucosal edemas in the groups that are fed with probiotics can be seen as damage, but we think that probiotics are consonant with the strength of the mucosal barrier. Thus, in the groups fed with probiotics, it is possible that bacterial translocation is seen less, and some antioxidative enzymes are found less. Further studies are needed to investigate the benefits of probiotics in patients operated for obstruction.

Although primer appendagitis epiploica (PAE) is an acute condition, there is no consensus about a standard first-choice treatment. Different non-surgical and surgical interventions for PAE are available. ⋯ Accurate diagnosis with the help of developing imaging methods has made non-surgical treatment a viable option in the treatment of PAE.

Analysis of anatomical localization and severity of injury in patients with blood transfusion in urban terrain hospital.
Blood loss is the most significant cause of mortality in trauma cases. In injured patients, rapid evaluation and appropriate transfusion is lifesaving. The present study aims to analyze the blood/blood products requirement based on available data and find any associations between the transfusion requirements and injury severity scores (ISS) and anatomical locations of injuries of transfused patients. ⋯ Anatomical location of injuries and ISS are valuable in the rapid determining of MT and survival rates of casualties. Especially in torso injuries, bleeding control is difficult and transfusion requirement and mortality rates are high. This study presents the trauma of urban terrain conflict-related transfusion data from a UTH.

Case ReportsFree perforation of primary small bowel lymphoma in a patient with celiac sprue and dermatitis herpetiformis.
Small bowel lymphomas are rare and constitute approximately 1% of the malignant gastrointestinal tumors. However, the risk of malignant disease in adult celiac disease is about 8-10%, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma is the most common. ⋯ We herein present a case of primary small intestinal lymphoma diagnosed after surgery in a 55-year-old male patient who presented to our emergency department with findings of gastrointestinal perforation and had a history of celiac disease and dermatitis herpetiformis. The purpose of this report is to review this situation briefly and discuss it in the light of literature.

Ameliorating the effects of Adalimumab on rabbits with experimental cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Adalimumab (ADA), which is a new-generation recombinant human monoclonal antibody for tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), has strong anti-inflammatory effects. The role of enhanced inflammation is well established for the development and progression of cerebral vasospasm. Investigated in the present study is the probable ameliorating and neuroprotective effects of ADA in rabbits using a cerebral vasospasm model with biochemical and histopathological methods. ⋯ Findings obtained in this study suggest that ADA is an effective neuroprotective agent for ameliorating cerebral vasospasm in experimental rabbit vasospasm.
