Evaluation of the serum levels of soluble IL-2 receptor and endothelin-1 in children with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
(WILEY, 2014)
We aimed to assess the association between serum levels of soluble IL-2 receptor (sIL-2r) and endothelin-1 and severe infection in children with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF). Fifty-two patients under 18 years of ...
Evaluation of Endothelium Functions by Flow-mediated Dilatation in Pediatric Patients With Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2015)
Background: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a systemic viral disease that also affects the endothelium. Thrombocytopenia and hemorrhage are seen in this disease. But, the cause of thrombocytopenia is not clear. ...
Resting Heart Rate in Children with Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever: A Tool to Identify Patients at Risk?
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2014)
Objective: We aimed to assess the association between resting heart rate (RHR) and severe infection in children with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF). Methods: In all, 121 patients under 18 years of age with a ...
Anterior Rhinomanometry and Determination of Nasal Mucociliary Clearance Time With the Saccharin Test in Children With Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2013)
Objectives: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), like other viral infections, may prolong mucociliary clearance time and increase nasal resistance in children. The aim of the present prospective case-control study was ...
Bradycardia Seen In Children With Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2013)
Introduction: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a zoonotic viral disease with a high mortality rate. In clinical practice, we observed bradycardia in some pediatric patients with CCHF during the clinical course. ...
Can the Mild Clinical Course of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever in Children Be Explained by Cytokine Responses?
(WILEY, 2013)
Cytokines are possibly one of the factors responsible for death due to Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF). This study aimed to determine the differences between the cytokine levels in children and adult patients with ...
Evaluation of cytokines as Th1/Th2 markers in pathogenesis of children with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
(E-CENTURY PUBLISHING CORP, 2014)
Cytokine networks play a key role in the pathogenesis of the disease in Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) patients. Therefore, our aim was to study the effects of cytokine levels on the pathogenesis and severity of ...
Evaluation of Serum Perforin, Caspase-3, sFasL and M-30 Levels as Apoptotic Markers in Children With Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2015)
Background: Apoptosis is a main regulator in responses of cellular immunity throughout systemic viral infections. Perforin, soluble Fas ligand, caspase-3 and caspase-cleaved cytokeratin-18 (M-30) are mediators of apoptosis. ...
Evaluation of cochlear involvement by transient evoked otoacoustic emission test in children with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2011)
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate cochlear involvement in child patients with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) disease. Methods: Twenty-eight CCHF disease patients (56 ears) and 26 sex- and age-matched ...
Elevated chemokine levels during adult but not pediatric Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2015)
Background: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne viral zoonosis. Clinical reports indicate the severity of CCHF is milder in children than adults. The chemokines are important chemoattractant mediators ...
