    Diagnostic Contribution of Hematological Parameters in Patients with Lung İnvolvement in Rheumatoid Arthritis
    (Sivas Cumhuriyet Üniversitesi, 2024) Atik, Seda; Apalan, Deniz; Atik, İrfan
    Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a prevalent autoimmune condition, with lung involvement being its most frequent extra-articular manifestation. Our study aims to investigate the contribution of hematological parameters to diagnosing lung involvement in patients with RA. Individuals with RA were divided into two groups according to lung involvement in thorax computed tomography. C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, platelet, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte/lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) were evaluated in all patients. Twenty-nine of the seventy-five RA patients were found to have lung involvement, and lung involvement was not observed in forty-six patients. CRP, ESR, and neutrophils were high in patients with lung involvement and a statistically notable distinction was observed. Lymphocyte count was low in patients with lung involvement and was statistically significant. NLR, NMO, and SII rates were high in patients with lung involvement and were statistically significant. It is observed that hematological parameters contribute to diagnosing RA lung involvement.

    Sonographic and magnetic resonance imaging findings in post-traumatic median nerve neuroma: A case report
    (Wiley, 2024) Atik, Irfan; Apalan, Deniz; Atik, Seda; Gul, Enes
    Nerves are frequently damaged in cases of blunt or penetrating injuries to the limbs. Post-traumatic neuromas arising from peripheral nerves are formations that emerge after nerve injury, potentially leading to swollen and agonizing nerve terminations upon severance. Post-traumatic neuromas commonly appear as irregular, non-cancerous nodules formed due to injury-induced damage. The most common clinical symptom is neuralgic pain significantly the patient's quality of life. The main peripheral nerve abnormalities that lead to a referral for imaging are benign peripheral nerve tumors such as schwannoma, neurofibroma, and traumatic pathologies. This case report discusses a 35-year-old woman who presented with a neuroma in her wrist months after a laceration and trauma, with typical imaging findings on sonographic and magnetic resonance imaging.
