Abstract
This study aimed to determine the level of interleukin (IL)-8 in diagnosing of invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA). We conducted this study with 50 controls and 25 IPA patients with haematological malignancies. Demographic data, haematological diagnoses, chemotherapy regimen, galactomannan level, fungal culture, and computed tomography findings of the patients were evaluated prospectively. IL-8 levels were studied with the ELISA method. The mean age of patients in the case group was 60.84 ± 15.38 years, while that of the controls was 58.38 ± 16.64 years. Of the patients, 2/25 were classified as having 'proven', 13/25 as 'probable', and 10/25 as 'possible' invasive aspergillosis (IA). Serum IL-8 levels were found to be significantly higher in the case group compared to the controls. There was a negative correlation between serum IL-8 levels and neutrophil counts and a positive correlation with the duration of neutropenia. A significant cutoff value for serum IL-8 parameter in detecting IPA disease was obtained as ≥274 ng/l; sensitivity was 72%; specificity was 64%; PPV was 50%; and NPV was 82%. In the subgroup analysis, there was no significant difference in serum IL-8 levels between the case group and the patients in the neutropenic control group, while a significant difference was found in with the patients in the non-neutropenic control group. Serum IL-8 levels in neutropenic patients who develop IPA are not adequate in terms of both the diagnosis of the disease and predicting mortality. New, easily applicable methods with high sensitivity and specificity in diagnosing IPA are still needed.

Abstract
Objective Reuse of medical devices poses risks concerning technical issues and patient safety. In this study, we aimed to examine the structural changes in catheters that occur due to the reuse with the aid of electron microscopy. Materials and Methods The effects of hydrogen peroxide (HP) and ethylene oxide (EO) sterilization on four percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) catheters and control PTCA catheters were examined by scanning electron microscope (SEM). Each catheter sample was divided into four parts during the SEM examination, and a total of 20 pieces were examined. Catheters were reprocessed through every regular sterilization step and used solely for the study, not in patients. Statistical evaluations of histological scoring made on images obtained from scanning electron microscopic images were made using the GraphPad Prism 8 program. Results Electron microscopical examination showed that HP sterilization caused more robust and deeper lines compared to EO. These distortions increased directly with the increase in the reprocessing cycle. In EO, no significant damage was detected within five cycles in contrast to HP; however, the harmful effects of EO were seen over five cycles. Unprocessed samples had no damage. Outer and inner deterioration was significantly higher in the EO>5 group and HP>5 group than in the control group. However, the bacterial contamination score in the EO>5 group was higher than the control group. Conclusion Our findings showed that HP and EO sterilizations caused some deterioration in the inner and outer surfaces of PTCA catheter samples. We recommend reprocessing using EO, the least damaging method, when necessary, and paying attention not to exceed five cycles when necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The number and proportion of elderly patients living with chronic hepatitis C are expected to increase in the coming years. We aimed to compare the real-world efficacy and safety of direct-acting antiviral treatment in elderly and younger Turkish adults infected with chronic hepatitis C. METHODS In this multicenter prospective study, 2629 eligible chronic hepatitis C patients treated with direct-acting antivirals between April 2017 and December 2019 from 37 Turkish referral centers were divided into 2 age groups: elderly (≥65 years) and younger adults (<65 years) and their safety was compared between 2 groups in evaluable population. Then, by matching the 2 age groups for demographics and pretreatment risk factors for a non-sustained virological response, a total of 1516 patients (758 in each group) and 1244 patients (622 in each group) from the modified evaluable population and per-protocol population were included in the efficacy analysis and the efficacy was compared between age groups. RESULTS The sustained virological response in the chronic hepatitis C patients was not affected by the age and the presence of cirrhosis both in the modified evaluable population and per-protocol population (P = .879, P = .508 for modified evaluable population and P = .058, P = .788 for per-protocol population, respectively). The results of the per-protocol analysis revealed that male gender, patients who had a prior history of hepatocellular carcinoma, patients infected with non-genotype 1 hepatitis C virus, and patients treated with sofosbuvir+ribavirin had a significantly lower sustained virological response 12 rates (P < .001, P = .047, P = .013, and P = .025, respectively). CONCLUSION Direct-acting antivirals can be safely used to treat Turkish elderly chronic hepatitis C patients with similar favorable efficacy and safety as that in younger adults.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since its first introduction, the spectrum and frequency of use of transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) have increased throughout the world. Therefore, it is crucial to determine which patients are at high mortality risk with TAVI. The Intermountain Risk Score (IMRS) is a score calculated from laboratory parameters. This study aimed to determine the long-term mortality of TAVI patients using the IMRS and to compare it with traditional scoring systems. METHODS The study included a total of 133 patients undergoing TAVI at our hospital from 2010 to 2019. Demographic data, co-morbid diseases, echocardiographic and laboratory parameters were collected retrospectively. The performance of IMRS was assessed as compared to the mortality determined in the overall patient population. RESULTS During the follow-up, 54.9% of patients (60 patients) (Group 1) survived; the mortality in Group 2 (60 patients) was 45.1%. The survival period had a mean of 1433 (±124) days. The mean IMRS was 1.67 (0.7) in Group 1 and 2.33 (0.72) in Group 2 (P <0.001). In multivariable analyses, only high risk of IMRS (hazard ratio [HR], 3.430; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.537-7.653; P = 0.003) and EuroSCORE II (HR, 1.141; 95% CI, 1.011-1.288; P = 0.03) independently predicted long-term mortality. CONCLUSIONS From the evaluation of all laboratory and echocardiography parameters, long-term mortality (>30 days) following the TAVI procedure can be said to be higher in patients with a high IMRS. The data from this study can be considered of value in demonstrating the clinical significance of IMRS calculation before the TAVI procedure.

Abstract
The incidence of fungal infections has increased in recent years. Antifungal resistance is a major problem with increasing frequency due to the widespread use of antifungal agents in infections. Identification of the Candida species and susceptibility patterns with the appropriate tests for resistance and selection of the empirical agents used for treatment are important. The aim of the study was to evaluate the changes of the epidemiology of Candida species and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of the antifungal agents, isolated in Mycology Laboratory of Ondokuz Mayıs University Faculty of Medicine, between 1 January 2009 to 1 July 2012. The study was performed retrospectively based on records in the mycology unit and checked comparatively with the automation system in the hospital. The recurrent reproductions of the same patient were excluded. For the identification of Candida species API®ID 32C (bioMerieux, France) system was used. Information on the isolated material, patient's age, gender and the inpatients' clinics were recorded. The susceptibility of Candida species isolated from blood cultures were studied with Etest (bioMerieux, France) method. A total of 1238 isolates were included in the study. The most common species isolated from clinical samples was C.albicans with a rate of 51.1% (n= 632), followed by C.tropicalis with a rate of 15.8% (n= 195). Among the pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) patients C.parapsilosis 42% (n= 17) was the most common isolate and the second most common isolate was C.albicans 32% (n= 13). However, in the adult ICU the most common isolate was C.albicans 34% (n= 13) and the second was C.parapsilosis 31% (n= 12). When the distribution of Candida species were analyzed from the records of last four years, the frequency rate of C.albicans and non-albicans species was found as 51.1% (n= 632) and %48.9 (n= 606), respectively. Based on these data, a comparison was made between the years and no difference between the two groups in terms of the distribution of fungi within the specified time (x²: 3.2, df: 1, p: 0.073) was determined. Of the Candida species isolated from blood cultures, seven isolates (2.2%) were resistant to fluconazole in the study period. The differences of MIC levels in fluconazole were detected between the years 2010-2012 and 2011-2012. The geometric mean of the MICs in 2012 increased significantly compared to 2010 and 2011 (p< 0.01). There was no resistance to amphotericin B except for intrinsically resistant Candida lusitaniae. There were no significant differences among amphotericin MIC values between years (p> 0.05). According to the sensitivity results, fluconazole is still seen as an option that can be used for the first choice. Although it remains as the first antifungal choice, antifungal susceptibility testing of the identified fungi will help the clinician for the plan and continuation of the treatment.
