    Abstract Introduction: Morphea localized scleroderma (LS) is a rare skin disease with unknown pathogenesis, which causes sclerosis of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue.
    Objectives: It was aimed to compare the characteristics of patients with pediatric and adult-onset morphea.
    Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the records of 183 adult morphea patients. The demographics, clinical and laboratory characteristics, and treatment options of the patients were recorded. Adult patients with morphea over the age of 18 were divided into two groups according to the age of onset and compared.
    Results: Twenty-two percent (N = 41) of the patients had pediatric-onset morphea (POLS) and 77.6% (n=142) had adult-onset morphea (AOLS). While POLS had a higher head-neck involvement, AOLS had a higher breast involvement (P < 0.001 and P = 0.043). Patients with linear morphea were younger, and more frequently had at least one laboratory anomaly (P = 0.016 versus 0.024). Anti-dsDNA positivity and low hemoglobin (Hb) were observed more frequently in patients with breast involvement. Patients with inguinal involvement, on the other hand, had lower Hb and a higher rate of diabetes, and those patients were older (P = 0.042, 0.040, and 0.012, respectively).
    Conclusions: Clinical characteristics and accompanying laboratory anomalies of the patients with morphea depend on the age of onset, involvement areas and the types of morphea, having such data readily available should guide the holistic approach for, and the monitoring process of, the disease.

    Abstract Aims: The International Lymphoma Radiation Oncology Group (ILROG) defined involved-site radiotherapy (ISRT) guidelines. These rules offer a certain variability that allows for autonomous decision-making in diverse clinical settings. However, this flexibility also gives rise to conflicts about the selection of treatment fields in the daily decision-making process. The aim of this study was to show the extent of interobserver variability when ILROG-ISRT recommendations were used in different clinical scenarios.
    Materials and methods: The 10-question survey used in our study consisted of two parts (part A and part B) and was prepared by four senior radiation oncologists experienced in the haemato-oncology field. The results were presented by stratifying according to clinical experience (<10 years, ≥10 years). Binomial tests (one-sided) were conducted to assess whether answers for each group and the whole group reached a consensus.
    Results: Twenty-six radiation oncologists, 13 of whom had less than 10 years of experience and 13 seniors, participated in the survey. Eighty per cent of respondents thought ILROG did not bring sufficient solutions for all clinical scenarios but offered solutions in some cases. In different case-based scenarios, the consensus among the respondents decreased down to 38%. Senior radiation oncologists were found to have more doubts about the adequacy of current guidelines.
    Conclusions: ILROG guidelines allow for a high degree of variability in real-life clinical scenarios and different interpretation of the recommendations may lead to increased toxicity and recurrences. Therefore, there is a need for refinement in ISRT delineation strategies. On behalf of the Turkish Society for Radiation Oncology Hematological Oncology, Pediatric Oncology and TBI Study Group, we are planning to carry out further educational contouring sessions to detect the interobserver variability in real-life contouring cases.

    Abstract Objective: Seborrheic dermatitis is a common papulosquamous skin disease with unknown pathogenesis. The aim of our study was to determine the serum level of 25-hydroxy vitamin D in patients with seborrheic dermatitis SD.
    Methods: A total of 53 patients and 60 healthy controls were included in the study. Serum vitamin D, calcium, phosphorus, and parathormone levels were measured in the patient and control groups, and a comparison was made between the two groups regarding these parameters.
    Results: Severe vitamin D deficiency was more frequent among patients with seborrheic dermatitisSD compared to controls (52.8 vs. 25.8%, p=0.003). In patients with severe vitamin D deficiency, seborrheic dermatitis SD was detected more frequently at an early age (p=0048) and in women (p=0.015). No correlation was found between the seborrheic dermatitis skin involvement site and vitamin D level.
    Conclusion: The fact that vitamin D levels decreased in patients with seborrheic dermatitis SD and patients with severe vitamin D deficiency develop seborrheic dermatitis SD earlier suggests that the low levels of vitamin D are related to seborrheic dermatitis.

    Abstract Background: Vitiligo, a multifactorial, depigmented skin disease, is characterised by selective loss of functional melanocytes leading to pigment reduction in the affected areas of the skin.
    Aim: We aimed to examine thiol-disulphide homeostasis, IMA, copper, zinc, selenium, vitamin A and vitamin C levels in vitiligo patients.
    Materials and methods: The study included 83 vitiligo patients and 72 healthy controls. Copper, zinc, and selenium levels were measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometer; vitamin A and E levels were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. Ischemia-modified albumin and native/total thiol levels were measured by colourimetric method.
    Results: Serum native and total thiol levels were significantly lower in vitiligo patients (
    Conclusions: All thiol-disulphide homeostasis parameters (the most important antioxidant-oxidant system in circulation), trace elements, and vitamins together were evaluated in the present study in vitiligo patients. It can be concluded that vitiligo patients have increased oxidative stress status, and also the increase in the dissemination of the disease also increases the oxidative stress in the body.

    Abstract Background: Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is a common, chronic inflammatory disease with relapses and remissions.
    Objectives: So we planned to investigate the relationship between SD and metabolic syndrome (Mets).
    Methods: 54 patients over 18 years of age without known diabetes mellitus, hypertension, coronary artery disease who were clinically diagnosed with SD in our clinic and 47 healthy controls were included in the study. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated of all participants. Complete blood count, fasting blood sugar (FBG), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were examined. The relationship between the presence of MetS, disease severity, and duration was investigated.
    Results: Average age of patients was 35.4 (sd: 12). Average age of controls was 32.9 (sd: 10.7). MetS was detected in 35.2% (n = 19) of the patient group and 10.6% (n = 5) of the control group. The presence of MetS was higher in SD patients than in the control group (p = 0.004). The rate of people with high TG was significantly higher in the SD group than the controls (p = 0.015). HDL level was significantly lower in the patient group (p = 0.050). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure were high in patients (p = 0.016, p = 0.029).
    Conclusions: Seborrheic dermatitis should be considered as a MetS marker and the presence of MetS should be examined in this group of patients. This can be helpful for the early diagnosis of a systemic disease complex with numerous complications. Also, treatment of MetS can also improve SD lesions.

    Abstract Background: Psoriasis is a multifactorial, chronic inflammatory skin disease where genetic and environmental factors play a role in the pathogenesis. Smoking is one of the critical environmental factors triggering psoriasis.
    Objective: The purpose of the present study was to analyse the smoking habits of patients with psoriasis and the effect of smoking on disease characteristics.
    Methods: One hundred and thirty-three patients who applied to the department of Dermatological and Venereal Diseases, Ankara Numune Education and Research Hospital, between May 2018 and May 2019 and were diagnosed with psoriasis participated in the study. Clinical, demographical, and treatment-related characteristics, and smoking habits of patients were recorded.
    Results: Sixty-seven point six percent of psoriasis patients were smokers. The presence of moderate to severe psoriasis (P = .028), nail involvement (P = .004), administration of systemic treatment (P = .024) and additional cardiovascular disease (P = .038) frequencies was higher in smokers compared to non-smokers. Besides, a positive correlation was observed between the amount of smoking and psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) (P = .003; r = .32).
    Conclusions: Smoking has many negative effects on patients with psoriasis including higher PASI levels, increased frequency of nail involvement, and cardiovascular diseases. Questioning cigarette smoking in psoriatic patients and supporting smoking cessation may contribute to reducing the adverse impact of smoking on psoriasis.

    Abstract Background: Psoriasis is a common chronic inflammatory dermatosis. Systemic immune inflammation index (SII) is an inflammation-based biomarker, which has been shown to be an effective prognostic factor in diseases with an inflammation-related etiology.
    Objectives: The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential efficacy of SII as a prognostic factor in patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.
    Materials and methods: This is a study developed based on the analysis of the medical records of patients with psoriasis. The study retrospectively evaluated the records of the participants for complete blood count results. The SII was calculated by the formula: neutrophil x platelet/lymphocyte. Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were determined.
    Results: SII was significantly higher in patients with psoriasis than in controls (578.1 vs. 396, p<0.001). The differences between the median NLR (2.2 vs. 1.5, p<0.001), MLR (0.25 vs. 0.21, p<0.001) and the mean red cell distribution width coefficient of variation (13.8 vs. 12.8, p<0.001) values of patient and control group were significant. SII was higher in patients with moderate/severe psoriasis than patients with mild psoriasis (687.3 vs. 506.6, p=0.034). A positive correlation was observed between SII and PASI (p<0.001; r=0.37). SII was higher in patients with arthritis than patients without (672.1 vs. 548.2, p=0.018).
    Conclusion: This is the first study to prove that SII might serve as an independent prognostic indicator for patients with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.

    Abstract Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. The pathogenesis of HS is not clear, and the triggering mechanism for the initiation of the disease is still a controversy.
    Aims: The present study aims to investigate the relationship between thiol-disulfide homeostasis (TDH), ischemia-modified albumin (IMA), and HS. To our knowledge, this will be the first report evaluating TDH and IMA status in HS.
    Patients/methods: The study included 30 patients with HS as the patient group and 30 healthy individuals as the control group. For determination of HS severity, Hurley and Hidradenitis suppurativa physician global assessment (PGA) scores were used. One tube venous blood specimen from every participant was obtained. IMA and TDH tests were analyzed in sera of participants. The results were evaluated statistically.
    Results: Disulfide (p < 0.001), Index I (p = 0.001), and Index II (p = 0.001) levels in HS group were significantly higher than control group. IMA levels in patients with higher Hurley scores are significantly higher (p = 0.032, r = 0.39). A positive correlation was observed between IMA level and disease duration (p = 0.021, r = 0.42).
    Conclusions: The shift in thiol/disulfide balance toward disulfide and significant increase in IMA levels put out the importance of oxidation status in HS etiopathogenesis.
