Abstract
OBJECTIVE Resistant hypertension is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The optimal medical therapy is not fully elucidated in resistant hypertension. There are relatively few studies in the literature on the treatment of resistant hypertension. In this study, we compared the effectiveness of nebivolol 5 mg, a third generation beta-blocker, with spironolactone 25 mg in patients with resistant hypertension. METHODS A total of 81 patients with resistant hypertension were included in the study. The spironolactone group was composed of 38 patients while the nebivolol group was composed of 43 patients. Resistant hypertension was defined as having office blood pressure ≥ 140/90 mmHg while the patients were under 3 or more antihypertensive agents treatment which included diuretic agents. Office and ambulatory blood pressure at basal and after 8 weeks of treatment were recorded. RESULTS Office systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure in 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were significantly lower when compared to basal values in both nebivolol and spironolactone groups. The decrease in 24-hour mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure in nebivolol group was 14.9 ± 19.8 mmHg and 9.3 ± 12.7 mmHg compared to 19.5 ± 16.4 mmHg and 13.7 ± 10.8 mmHg in the spironolactone group, respectively. The decrease in 24-hour mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure was not significantly different between the nebivolol and spironolactone groups (P = 0.338 and P = 0.153). CONCLUSION Nebivolol is an effective treatment option for resistant hypertension and the antihypertensive effect of nebivolol is similar to low-dose spironolactone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a pregnancy complication that can progress with persistent nausea and vomiting. The aim of the present study is to evaluate the relationship between hematological parameters and HG. METHOD A total of 532 pregnant women with HG who were admitted to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology between March 2019 and February 2021, and 534 healthy pregnant women with characteristics similar to those of the case group were included in the study. The hematological parameters of both groups were compared. In addition, the hematological parametersof patients with HG according to the severity of ketonuria were compared. RESULTS The mean age of the HG group (n = 532) was 26.3 ± 4.1 years, and that of the control group (n = 534) was 25.9 ± 4.8 years. Among patients with HG, 46% (n = 249) had ketone (+), 33% (n = 174), ketone (++), and 21% (n = 109), ketone (++ + ). The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were higher in the HG group than in the control group: 3.8 (2.8-5.8)/3.2 (2.6-4.0); p < 0.001; and 135.2 ± 30.4/108.9 ± 62.2; p < 0.001 respectively. The neutrophil count, NLR, and PLR were higher in the group with ketone (++ + ) than in the groups with ketone (+) or ketone (++): 7.6 ± 1.9/5.5 ± 2.4; p < 0.001; 3.8(2.8-4.6)/2.9(2.3-3.6); p < 0.001; and 149.9 ± 48.0/135.9 ± 65.7; p < 0.001 respectively. The mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH) level, the NLR, and the PLR were identified as independent predictors of the presence of HG and the level of ketone positivity in HG patients. CONCLUSION The NLR and PLR were high in patients with HG, suggesting the its inflammatory activity. They may be important markers associated with the presence and severity of HG.

Abstract
Objective This study investigated the relationship between umbilical vein diameter and cord length and fetal outcome in low-risk pregnancies (fetuses appropriate for gestational age [AGA]). Methods A prospective cohort study of 39 singleton pregnant women aged 19–44 years at between 38+0 and 41+6 weeks of gestation was conducted. Case demographics, umbilical vein diameter measured by prenatal ultrasound, postnatal birth weight, gender, 1- and 5-minute Apgar scores, blood gas analysis, and umbilical cord length were recorded. Fetuses with a fetal weight in the 10–90th percentile according to week of gestation were accepted as AGA. Results The mean age of the pregnant women was 27.5±5.3 years. 33% (13/39) of the pregnant women were nulliparous. There was no statistically significant correlation between umbilical vein diameter and other variables in correlation analysis (p>0.050). Umbilical cord length and umbilical vein lactate level were found to have a statistically negative and significant correlation (r=-0.418; p=0.015); however, no other pregnancy outcomes were found to have a significant correlation. There was no statistically significant difference between the median values of umbilical vein diameter and cord length by gender (p=0.076 and 0.181, respectively). Conclusion In conclusion, this study found no relationship between umbilical vein diameter and cord length and fetal weight and pregnancy outcome in low-risk 38.0–41.6-week pregnancies (AGA fetuses). However, the obtained results still need to be confirmed by larger series.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hyperemesis gravidarum is an illness that starts in early pregnancy and manifests itself with oral intake problems, electrolyte imbalance, ketonuria, and weight loss. Inflammation is closely associated with the hyperemesis gravidarum, and inflammatory indicators have been studied to understand its pathophysiology. This study investigates the relationship of ketonuria levels with inflammatory markers platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) for hyperemesis gravidarum patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective case control study was conducted at Kütahya Medical Sciences University Tertiary Research and Training Hospital between December 2019 and December 2020. A total of 173 pregnancies, 82 of them with hyperemesis gravidarum and 91 of them low-risk pregnancies were included in the study. The patients' demographic profiles and laboratory parameters were recorded. The patients were divided into hyperemesis gravidarum and control groups and the groups were compared for the levels of inflammation markers. For the hyperemesis gravidarum group, the relationship between ketonuria levels and the inflammation severity was investigated. RESULTS MLR, NLR, PLR levels were higher in the hyperemesis gravidarum group than the control group in a statistically significant way (p < 0.001 for all of the comparisons). The hyperemesis gravidarum group was subdivided into four groups based on their ketonuria levels, and their MLR, NLR, PLR levels were compared. The differences between the groups were statistically significant (p < 0.001) and the indicators increased with the ketonuria levels. Finally, ketonuria levels had a positive and significant correlation with MLR (rho =0.67, p < 0.001), PLR (rho =0.67, p < 0.001), and NLR (rho =0.8, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Hyperemesis gravidarum patients have higher levels of hematologic inflammation indicators than healthy pregnant patients. For these patients, the levels of the indicators increase with ketonuria levels.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the fourth leading cause of chronic morbidity and mortality. Bronchial obstruction and increased pulmonary vascular resistance impairs right atrial functions. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of bronchial obstruction on p wave axis in patients with COPD and usefulness of electrocardiography (ECG) in the evaluation of the severity of COPD. PATIENTS AND METHODS Ninety five patients (64 male and 31 female) included to the study. Patients were in sinus rhythm, with normal ejection fraction and heart chamber sizes. Their respiratory function tests and 12 lead electrocardiograms were obtained at same day. Correlations with severity of COPD and ECG findings including p wave axis, p wave duration, QRS axis, QRS duration were studied. RESULTS The mean age was 58 ± 12 years. Their mean p wave axis was 62 ± 18 degrees. In this study, p wave axis has demonstrated significant positive correlations with stages of COPD and QRS axis but significant negative correlations with FEV1, FEF, BMI and QRS duration. P wave axis increases with increasing stages of COPD. CONCLUSION Verticalization of the frontal p wave axis may be an early finding of worsening of COPD before occurrences of other ECG changes of hypertrophy and enlargement of right heart chambers such as p pulmonale. Verticalization of the frontal p wave axis reflecting right atrial electrical activity and right heart strain may be a useful parameter for quick estimation of the severity of COPD in an out-patient cared.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the serum levels of gut and adipocyte-derived metabolic hormones that control appetite, adipocity, weight gain and energy hemostasis, namely total ghrelin (TG), acylated ghrelin (AG), leptin and PYY-3 in hyperemesis gravidarum (HG). METHODS Plasma samples of 86 women in their first trimester pregnancies with HG (n = 30), morning sickness of pregnancy (MSP) (n = 34) and control (n = 22) groups were obtained. Serum levels of TG, AG, leptin and PYY-3 were compared between the groups, and the correlations with severity of symptoms using modified PUQE (Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis) scoring, BMI, E2, hCG and TSH were calculated. RESULTS Levels of TG, AG, PYY-3 and the TG/leptin ratio were significantly higher in HG group compared to MSP and the control groups (p ≤ 0.017). AG/TG ratio was significantly lower in the HG group compared to both MSP and control groups (p ≤ 0.017). There were either weak or no significant statistical correlations between the gut and adipose-related hormones and the modified PUQE scores, BMI, E2, hCG and TSH. CONCLUSION Gut-derived metabolic hormones ghrelin, AG and PYY-3 may be involved in the HG pathophysiology.
