Öğe Nasolabial cyst: management of a maxillofacial soft tissue lesion(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Erçal, Pınar; Erçal, Osman Ertuğ; Ramazanoğlu, Mustafa; Gümrü, Osman ZekiNasolabial cysts are rare non-odontogenic soft tissue cysts that occur in the upper lip and nasal vestibulum. It has been suggested that these cysts develop from the epithelium of nasolacrimal duct. It represents itself as an expansion in the soft tissue causing esthetic problems in the maxillofacial region as well as nasal obstruction in rare cases. In this case study, we present the diagnosis and the surgical treatment of a nasolabial cyst with an intraoral approach.Öğe Simple bone cyst on the mandibular ramus: a case report(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Okumuş, Özlem; Varol, Altan; Özbayrak, SemihThe simple bone cyst, also called traumatic bone cyst or solitary bone cyst, is an uncommon cavity of the jaws and occurs on the mandibular symphysis and body, but rarely on the mandibular condyle. It is generally asymptomatic, usually detected incidentally during routine radiological assessment. This article presents a bone cystic lesion affecting the right mandibular ramus in a 11 year-old female patient with no history of previous trauma. A well demarcated oval shaped radiolucent lesion was observed on the right mandibular ramus in panoramic radiography. The advanced imaging techniques were performed to assess the exact location of the lesion and its association with the surrounded soft tissue. The patient underwent this cystic lesion enucleated under general anesthesia and the surgical exploration has demonstrated the empty cavity without the epithelial layer. The postoperative panoramic radiography which was performed after 6 months of follow up showed bony formation. The simple bone cyst is a rare jawbone lesion with an unclear etiology. It is generally associated with a good prognosis and a low rate of recurrence. Trauma history must be questioned.Öğe Composition and acetylcholinesterase inhibition properties of tripleurospermum inodorum (L.) Sch. Bip. essential oil from Istanbul(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Servi, Hüseyin; Yüce, Yasemin Yücel; Polatoğlu, KaanEssential oil composition and Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition properties of Tripleurospermum inodorum (L.) Sch. Bip. were investigated. Essential oils of flowers, leaves and stems were obtained through hydro-distillation using a Clevenger type apparatus with 0.03, 0.02 and 0.01% (v/w) yields, respectively. Essential oil composition of the oils was determined by GC-MS analyses. Total of ninety compounds were identified in flower oil comprising of 80.7% of the essential oil. The main components of the flower oil were artemisia ketone 14.4%, terpinen-4-ol 5.5%, 1,8-cineole 5.1%, sabinene 4.7% and tricosane 4.6%. Leaf oil was characterized by 35 compounds representing 62.7% of the oil. Leaf oil contained caryophyllene oxide 16.0%, phytol 12.1%, spathulenol 5.9%, hexahydrofarnesyl acetone 3.8% and salvia-4(14)-en-1-one 3.5% compounds with high relative percentages. Stem essential oil comprised of twenty-eight compounds representing 87.2% of the oil. The main components of the stem essential oil were were neryl acetate 12.8%, (E)-β-farnesene 12.5%, phytol 12.1%, guaia-6,10(14)-dien-4β-ol 10.8%, γ-cadinol 7.8%, nonacosane 7.3%, decanoic acid 6.3% and caryophyllene oxide 4.6%. In vitro AchE inhition of the oils were evaluated by the Ellman spectrophotometric method. AChE inhibitory property was investigated for the flower oil with at four different concentrations. Highest AChE inhibitory property was observed for 20 mg/mL oil concentration (53.35 ± 1.37 %; n =3). This AChE inhibitory concentration was equivalent to the activity of 1.26 μg galanthamine hydrobromide in the assay. Activity of the essential oil was concentration dependent.Öğe Permeable bodies: Posession in Dersim(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Yürür, GülkızılcaThe local etiology of mental disorders in the Alevi healing tradition of Dersim point to intruders from mystical realms, “mılaket”, who posess human selves with a weakened sense of personal will. Liminal temporalities and spaces are categorized as providing the setting for symbiotic encounters between the human selves and nonselves. In this work, a short introduction into the local belief on posession will be provided. The actual operation of agency in the experience of posession is exemplified on the narrative account of a local healthcare officer, who stands between modern medicine and the local healing tradition. The co-existence of biomedicine and Alevi healing tradition in Dersim is less burdened by the necessity of “trans-cultural translation”, as many of the practicing biomedical professionals and administrative workers in healthcare are rooted in the Dersim Alevi culture. The reason for the possibility of co-existence can be that, the marcation lines between biomedicine and Alevi healing tradition is drawn by Dersim Alevi healthcare professionals themselves.Öğe Reflections of medicine in literature(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Çerkeşli, Evşen“Kütüphanedeki Beden”, created by compiling a sample of the various literary texts, is a reference source for readers from all walks of life, from amateur and professionally.Öğe Treatment of multiple gingival recessions by tunnel technique and acellular dermal matrix graft: a case report(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Özenci, İlknur; İpçi, Şebnem Dirikan; Yılmaz, Selçuk; Çakar, GökserSuccessful clinical outcomes have been achieved with various root coverage procedures for the treatment of Miller Class I and II multiple gingival recessions. Regarding Miller Class III recessions, unpredictable success rate was reported due to the loss of interproximal tissue support. Recently, it has been demonstrated that complete root coverage is possible in Miller Class III defects, when the defects present mild interdental attachment loss. This case report describes the application of acellular dermal matrix graft (ADM) and tunnel technique (TUN) combination, for the treatment of Miller Class III multiple gingival recession defects. At 12-month, complete root coverage on teeth #41 and partial root coverage on teeth #31 with mean root coverage of 83.3% were achieved. Root coverage esthetic score was 7 with successful esthetic results. Besides significant defect coverage increase in keratinized tissue height and gingival thickness were obtained. According to the present clinical case, Miller Class III multiple gingival recessions can be predictably treated with TUN+ADM, if the attachment loss is not too severe.Öğe Role of protein oxidation, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense systems on diabetes mellitus(Altınbaş Üniversitesi, 2018) Sugeçti, SerkanDiabetes; is a chronic disease whose prevalence has been increasing day by day in the world. Several mechanisms have been causing the formation of diabetes. One of these mechanisms is the oxidative stress that occurs in cells and tissues. Oxidative damage which is caused by reactive oxygen species; has an important role in the formation of complications due to diabetes. Hyperglycemia caused by diabetes increases free radical formation. The antioxidant defense system tries to balance the toxic effects of reactive oxygen species. A, C, E vitamins and glutathione is Non-enzymatic antioxidants, and superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase is enzymatic antioxidants against reactive oxygen species. In this study; the balance between antioxidants and free radicals, the role of oxidative stress in diabetes and possible therapeutic effects will be examined.
