    Abstract Electrogastrography (EGG) is a novel diagnostic modality for assessing the gastrointestinal tract (GI) that generates spontaneous electrical activity and monitors gastric motility. The aim of this study was to compare patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) and diabetic gastroparesis (D-GP) with healthy controls (CT) to use established findings on abnormalities of gastric motility based on EGG characteristics. In this study, 50 patients with FD, 50 D-GP patients, and 50 CT subjects were studied to compare EGG with discrete wavelet transform models (DWT) to extract signal characteristics using a variety of different qualitative and quantitative metrics from pre-prandial and postprandial states. As a result, higher statistically significant (

    Abstract Introduction Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune systemic disease caused by the T cell-driven immune mechanism, which is triggered by gluten in cereals such as wheat, barley, and rye in individuals who have a genetic predisposition. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the frequency of gallstones in children with CD. Methods A total of 120 patients who were diagnosed with CD and who were followed-up by the pediatric gastroenterology clinic of the hospital and 100 healthy children were included in the study. The age, gender, hemogram, biochemistry, and abdominal ultrasonography images of the patients were compared. Cases that had gallstones were evaluated in terms of fasting serum lipids, glucose-6-P dehydrogenase, and pyruvate kinase, osmotic fragility, hemoglobin electrophoresis, and peripheral smears. Cases diagnosed with a hematological or metabolic disease were excluded from the study. Celiac serology was examined in terms of CD diagnosis in cases who had gallstones for the first time. Results The median age of the patients with CD who were included in the study was eight years (5-12), and the median age of the control group was 10 years (6-13). A total of 48% of the Control Group was female, and 52% were male. No significant differences were detected between the age and gender distribution of the cases. There were no differences between hemogram and biochemical parameters. Gallstones were detected in six (5%) of CD-diagnosed cases, and in three (3%) of the cases in the control group. Two (2/160; 1.3%) of the patients who were referred to our clinic with the diagnosis of gallstones were diagnosed with CD. Conclusions: Early diagnosis and treatment of CD is important to avoid gallstone development because a gluten-free diet corrects enteropathy significantly in CD. CD must be considered in cases with gallstones.

    Abstract Success in eradication of H. pylori is decreasing due to increasing resistant strains. In particular, side-effects due to 4-agent treatment multiple drug use are observed and treatment compliance decreases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy, reliability, and side-effect profile of the combination of amoxicillin and rabeprazole with gemifloxacin, which is a new generation quinolone, in the treatment of H. pylori infection. This study was conducted on 71 naive patients who received H. pylori eradication. All the patients were administered treatment of Amoxicillin (1000 mg twice a day) + Gemifloxacin (320 mg once a day) + rabeprazole (20 mg twice a day) for 7 days. Drug compliance and treatment tolerance were evaluated after finishing the treatment. At 1 month after the end of the treatment, H. pylori eradication was evaluated in all the patients by examining H. pylori antigen in the feces. In the evaluation after treatment, H. pylori eradication was obtained in 63 (88.7%) patients and eradication was not obtained in 8 (11.3%) patients. The treatment was not completed by 2 patients because of side-effects and noncompliance, so after exclusion of these 2 patients, successful H. pylori eradication was obtained in 63 (91.3%) of 69 patients who completed the treatment. Side-effects were seen in a total of 9 (12.7%) patients. Diarrhea, bloating, abdominal pain, and nausea-vomiting were seen in some patients, but no reflux, constipation, skin rash, listlessness-fatigue, headache, dizziness, palpitations, dry mouth, or weight loss was seen in any patient. In regions with high resistance to clarithromycin and metronidazole in particular, the combination of gemifloxacin with amoxicillin and rabeprazole can be considered for use in first-stage treatment as both the efficacy and tolerability are high.

    Abstract Background: Transcutaneous electrogastrography is a novel modality to assess the human stomach's gastric myoelectrical activity. The purpose of this study was to compare functional dyspepsia, joint hypermobility, and diabetic gastroparesis patients with healthy control subjects in terms of gastric motility abnormalities through electrogastrography evaluations, and to then evaluate the correlation among variations in their blood parameters.
    Methods: This study analyzed 120 subjects with functional dyspepsia (n = 30), joint hypermobility (n = 30), diabetic gastroparesis (n = 30), and control subjects (n = 30). The electrogastrography parameters included the dominant frequency, dominant power, power ratio, and instability coefficient, which were analyzed preprandially and postprandially. Although there are similar studies in the literature, there is no other study in which all groups have been studied together, as in our study.
    Results: The electrogastrography results showed that preprandial dominant frequency (P = .031*), dominant power (P = .047*), and instability coefficient (P = .043*), and postprandial dominant frequency (P = .041*) and dominant power (P = .035*) results were statistically significant among the functional dyspepsia, joint hypermobility, diabetic gastroparesis, and control groups. There was no significant difference found in terms of power ratio (P = .114) values. However, only glucose (P = .04*) and calcium (P = .04*) levels showed statistical significance. Several blood tests including hemoglobin (P = .032*), creatinine (P= .045*), calcium (P = .037*), potassium (P= .041*), white blood cells (P = .038*), and alanine aminotransferase (P = .031*) also showed correlation with the dominant frequency, power ratio, and instability coefficient parameters.
    Conclusions: This joint methodology demonstrated that it is possible to differentiate between functional dyspepsia, joint hypermobility, and diabetic gastroparesis patients from healthy subjects by using electrogastrography. Moreover, the majority of patients showed adequate gastric motility in response to food.

    Abstract Aim: The purpose of our study is to measure the awareness of hepatitis C among physicians employed in Istanbul, and investigate the relationship between awareness and the specialization field, age and presence of chronic hepatitis/positive family history.
    Material and methods: Level of awareness of 125 family physicians and 76 internal medicine physicians, employed within Istanbul Province, on hepatitis C infection were evaluated using standard questionnaire. Relationship between their awareness and age, specialization, presence of any chronic hepatitis and chronic hepatitis C in any relatives were investigated.
    Results: The mean age of the physicians was 30.9 ±7.1 years (range: 23-45 years) and 58% of them were women. Seventy-five (37.3%) physicians were between ages of 23-28, 67 (33.3%) physicians were between ages of 29-32, and 59 (29.4%) physicians ages was greater than 32. Twenty-one (10.4%) physicians had hepatitis or a first-or second-degree relative with hepatitis. Physicians were found to be insufficient in answering the questions on hepatitis C virus transmission routes and who should be screened. When examined based on transmission routes, there were no significant differences between physicians' specializations and positive familial history, but physicians aged 23-28 had significantly poorer awareness at some points. Internal medicine specialists had better awareness on screening tests compared to family physicians but there were no significant differences between positive familial history and physicians' age.
    Conclusions: Physicians' awareness should be improved to prevent hepatitis C virus transmission and to identify existing conditions.

    Abstract Objectives: Autoimmune Diseases (AIDs) are detected in celiac patients. Our purpose was to determine the AIDs that are associated with celiac disease and related risk factors in the Turkish population.
    Methods: The study included 230 celiac patients who were diagnosed and followed-up in our clinics between 2015-2019. All AIDs that accompanied the celiac disease were recorded, and their association with risk factors was analyzed.
    Results: The mean age of the patients was 35.6±10.6 years (age range:18-72). A total of 58(25.2%) patients were male and the mean age at onset of disease was 29.1±6.5 years. The duration of disease follow-up was 6.5±4.6 years. One hundred and twenty two (53%) patients were on a strict diet, and 72(31.3%) patients had accompanying AID. Hashimoto thyroiditis was found in 39(17%) patients, asthma in 16(7%) patients as the most common comorbidities. There was a significant relation between AID and female gender, age of diagnosis being <40 years, duration of disease, non-GIS symptoms at the time of admission, and non-employment status.
    Conclusion: Screening other AIDs in celiac patients are important, especially in individuals who have risk factors. Considering that many AIDs may develop in the future despite dietary compliance, patients should be followed with a multidisciplinary approach.
