    Abstract Objective: This retrospective study aimed to describe the clinical and radiological features, diagnostic methods, laboratory findings, organ involvement, and treatment strategies of 22 patients who followed up with late-onset childhood sarcoidosis and compare them with the literature.
    Material and method: This retrospective multicenter study reviewed the medical records of 22 children with sarcoidosis who applied to the Pediatric pulmonology department of Erciyes University Faculty of Medicine and Necmettin Erbakan Faculty of Medicine in 2012 and 2022.
    Results: The mean age of the patients at the time of diagnosis was 13.1/year (interquartile range [IQR]1:6.3-[IQR]3:15.7). The most common first presenting symptom was cough 40.9% (n = 9), weight loss 31.8% (n = 7), and dyspnea 22.7% (n = 5). There were elevated levels of C-reactive protein (CRP; 59%), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE; 54.5%), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR; 54.5%), and immunoglobulin G (IgG; 54.5%). Twenty patients (90%) received systemic steroid treatment. Eighteen (81.8%) of these patients responded positively to treatment. Two patients had a recurrence.
    Conclusion: The incidence of sarcoidosis in children in Turkey is currently unknown. However, a regional average of 2.2 cases per year has been documented for the first time. Contrary to previous studies, a significant prevalence of consanguineous marriage was observed in our study. While constitutional symptoms were most common in other studies, the cough was the most common symptom in our study. To our knowledge, this is one of the Turkish studies with the highest number of sarcoidosis in children and one of the few European studies on sarcoidosis in children.

    Abstract Background: Airway inflammation starts in early life in cystic fibrosis (CF) and limited, objective markers are available to help identify infants with increased inflammation. We aimed to investigate neutrophil, lymphocyte ratio (NLR), mean platelet volume (MPV) and immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) to be a possible inflammatory biomarker for CF in infancy.
    Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study in three centers. Between January 2015 and December 2022, children with CF newborn screening (NBS) positivity and diagnosed as CF were included in the study. Correlation analysis were performed with NLR, MPV, IRT and follow-up parameters such as z-scores, modified Shwachman-Kulczycki score (mSKS) at the first, second, third and sixth ages and pulmonary function test (PFT) at the sixth age.
    Results: A total of 92 children with CF included in the study and 47.8% of them were female. There were no correlations between NLR, MPV and weight and height z-scores for all ages (p > 0.05), a negative correlation was found between MPV and body mass indexes (BMI) z-score at the age of 6 (r = -0.443, p = 0.038). No correlation was found between NLR, MPV and PFT parameters and mSKS at all ages (p > 0.05). There was a negative correlation between first IRT and BMI z-score at 6 years of age (r = -0.381, p = 0.046) and negative correlations between second IRT and weight and BMI z-score at the age of 6 (r = -0.462, p = 0.010; r = -0.437, p = 0.016, respectively).
    Conclusion: Higher MPV and IRT levels during NBS period are associated with worse nutritional outcome which may reflect chronic inflammation. Children with higher MPV and IRT should be followed up closely in terms of chronic inflammation and nutritional status.

    Abstract Objective: The importance of prenatal attachment, probably as the initial attachment of a pregnant woman to the fetus and which turn into the maternal-baby attachment after birth, for the well-being of the newborn and mother is well known. The aim of the present study was to explore the possible socio-demographic and clinical factors (personality features, styles used in coping with stress, depression, and situational anxiety levels, and marital adjustment) affecting maternal-fetal attachment.
    Materials and methods: Eighty women on their third trimesters of pregnancy were included in the study. After examination by a psychiatrist, a detailed socio-demographic form and scales including Prenatal Attachment Inventory, Basic Personality Traits Scale, Coping with Stress Attitudes Inventory, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-1, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and Marital Adjustment Scale were applied.
    Results: Educational level, marital adjustment, social support, and turning to religion as a coping mechanism with stress were found to be positively correlated with prenatal attachment scores. The duration of marriage and number of giving births and the avoidance/disengagement subscale of Coping with Stress Scale and BDI scores were negatively correlated with prenatal attachment scores. A BDI score of ≥17 (this score suggests moderate and/or severe symptoms of depression) was found to be an independent and a negative variable on prenatal attachment.
    Conclusion: We suggest that the detection of symptoms of depression and other factors that may affect prenatal attachment, may help shed light to the interventions to be performed to improve the quality of maternal-fetal attachment by society and governments.

    Abstract Since the outbreak of the Syrian civil war in 2011, the population of Arab refugees in Turkey has rapidly increased. While cystic fibrosis (CF) is believed to be rare among Arabs, recent studies suggest it is underdiagnosed. This study aims to present the demographic, clinical, and genetic characteristics of CF patients among Arab refugees in Turkey. Additionally, a comparison is made between the findings in the National CF Registry 2021 in Turkey (NCFRT) and the refugee CF patient group. The study included refugee patients between the ages of 0 and 18 years who were diagnosed with CF and received ongoing care at pediatric pulmonology centers from March 2011 to March 2021. The study examined demographic information, age at diagnosis, age of diagnosis of patients through CF newborn screening (NBS), presenting symptoms, CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) mutation test results, sputum culture results, weight, height, and body mass index (BMI) z score. Their results were compared with the NCFRT results. The study included 14 pediatric pulmonology centers and 87 patients, consisting of 46 (52.9%) boys and 41 (47.1%) girls. All of the patients were Arab refugees, with 80 (92%) being Syrian. All the patients were diagnosed in Turkey. The median age at diagnosis of patients was 22.33 (interquartile range, 1-258) months. The median age of diagnosis of patients through NBS was 4.2 (interquartile range, 1-12) months. The median age of older patients, who were unable to be included in the NBS program, was 32.3 (interquartile range, 3-258) months. Parental consanguinity was observed in 52 (59.7%) patients. The mutation that was most frequently found was F508del, which accounted for 22.2% of the cases. It was present in 20 patients, constituting 32 out of the total 144 alleles. There was a large number of genetic variations. CFTR genotyping could not be conducted for 12 patients. These patients had high sweat tests, and their genetic mutations could not be determined due to a lack of data. Compared to NCFRT, refugee patients were diagnosed later, and long-term follow-up of refugee CF patients had significantly worse nutritional status and pseudomonas colonization.  Conclusion: Although refugee CF patients have equal access to NBS programs and CF medications as well as Turkish patients, the median age at diagnosis of patients, the median age of diagnosis of patients through NBS, their nutritional status, and Pseudomonas colonization were significantly worse than Turkish patients, which may be related to the difficulties of living in another country and poor living conditions. The high genetic heterogeneity and rare mutations detected in the refugee patient group compared to Turkish patients. Well-programmed NBS programs, thorough genetic studies, and the enhancement of living conditions for refugee patients in the countries they relocate to can have several advantages such as early detection and improved prognosis. What is Known: • Children who have chronic diseases are the group that is most affected by wars. • The outcome gets better with early diagnosis and treatment in patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). What is New: • Through the implementation of a newborn screening program, which has never been done in Syria previously, refugee patients, the majority of whom are Syrians were diagnosed with cystic fibrosis within a duration of 4 months. • Despite equal access to the newborn screening program and CF medications for both Turkish patients and refugee patients, the challenges of living in a foreign country have an impact on refugees.

    Abstract Background: Pulmonary embolism is a clinical condition caused by the obstruction of the pulmonary artery and its branches with endogenous, exogenous embolism, or local thrombus formation. It is a rare but potentially life-threatening event in the pediatric population. Pediatric pulmonary embolism has many unknown characteristics.
    Aims: To evaluate clinical features, genetic and acquired risk factors, diagnostic imaging, and treatment strategies with long-term results in children with pulmonary embolism.
    Study design: A retrospective multicenter clinical trial.
    Methods: Patients aged 0-18 years who were diagnosed with pulmonary embolism with computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) findings (intraluminal filling defect in the lobar or main pulmonary artery) in 3 university hospitals between 2006 and 2021 were included in the study. A form was created for data standardization, and variables were collected retrospectively through medical record review. In addition to the features given above, we also evaluated in situ pulmonary artery thrombosis (ISPAT) and patients' Wells scores. Follow-up CTPA results were evaluated for patient response to treatment. Complete recovery means that there were no lesions, incomplete recovery if there was still embolism, and no response if there was no change.
    Results: Twenty-four patients (female:13, male:11) were included in the study. The mean age was 13.5 years. All patients but one had at least one or more genetic or acquired risk factors. Factor V Leiden mutation (16.6%) was the most common genetic risk factor. Six of 16 patients with Doppler ultrasonography were diagnosed with ISPAT because there was no sign of thromboembolic thrombosis. Nine (41.6%) patients had a Wells score of >4 (pulmonary embolism clinically strong), and 15 (58.4%) patients scored <4 (pulmonary embolism clinically likely weak), indicating that an alternative diagnosis was more likely than pulmonary embolism (sensitivity %37.5). The mean follow-up period was 23 (±17) months. Complete and incomplete recovery was observed in 15 (62.5%) and 7 (29.1%) patients, respectively, among the patients who underwent follow-up evaluation. No response was obtained in 2 patients (8.3%) who died.
    Conclusion: The Wells scoring system seems insufficient to diagnose pulmonary embolism in children and should be improved by adding new parameters. ISPAT may be more common in children with congenital heart disease and systemic disease.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the relationship between striae gravidarum (SG) score and abdominal scar characteristics together with intraperitoneal adhesion (IPA) grades of patients who were hospitalized for second cesarean delivery.
    Methods: A total of 145 consecutive women undergoing scheduled cesarean section (CS) in a tertiary level maternity hospital between November 2013 and January 2014 were included in the study. All women had transverse suprapubic skin incision due to the previous CS and none of them had a history of vaginal delivery. Patients were classified according to the SG status, as women with no SG: Group-1(n=53), mild SG: Group-2(n=27) and severe SG: Group 3(n=65). Groups were compared between themselves with regard to various sociodemographic properties, cesarean scar characteristics and IPA scores.
    Results: No significant difference in the length, width and color of the scar was detected among groups. While flat scar was the most prominent form of scar, the elevated scar was significantly more frequent in Group-1 compared to other groups (
    Conclusion: Striae gravidarum (SG) was found to be associated with scar characteristics, but not associated with the severity of intraperitoneal adhesion (IPA).

    Abstract Objective: To create a model for prediction of repeat post cesarean section (CS) length of hospital stay (LOHS) in patients undergoing repeat CS. Our other aim was to compare the perinatal outcomes in patients with ≥3 versus <3 previous CS procedures.
    Methods: Individual characteristics, pre-, intra- and post-operative data of 186 pregnant women who had ≥3 previous CS were compared with 195 pregnant women with <3 previous CS.
    Results: Regression analyses revealed that models can be used to predict the dependents "postpartum LOHS" and "needed units of erythrocyte suspension", both pre-operatively and intra-operatively. Patients with ≥3 previous CS procedures were older, delivered earlier and had lower Apgar 1 and Apgar 5 values than patients with <3 previous CS. The rate of elective CS operations was lower in patients with ≥3 previous CS. Pregnant women ≥3 previous CS had significantly more severe intraperitoneal adhesion (IPA) and higher rate of bladder injury.
    Conclusions: Prediction models can be conducted for LOHS and other perinatal and operative parameters in patients with previous CS. Pregnancy and repeat CS, even in patients with ≥3 previous CS procedures, are both safe conditions with optimal follow-up and management.

    Abstract Introduction: The most recent influenza season saw a prominent infectious burden over a period of six months in the Turkish capital, reminding observers of the pandemic in 2009 year. The aim of the present study was to investigate the consequences of seasonal outbreaks in pregnant women during the 2014-2015 influenza season.
    Methodology: Forty-seven pregnant female patients with symptoms of influenza-like illness who were admitted to tertiary perinatal care center in Ankara, Tukrey, between October 2014 and May 2015 were included in this case-control study. The subtype determination of influenza was performed with real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing. Clinical observations and pregnancy outcomes were compared with respect to subtypes.
    Results: Classifications were available for 35 patients, of whom 12 were determined to have influenza A infection, while 10 had influenza B infection. The remaining 13 patients were influenza-negative. Eight of the 22 (36.4%) influenza-positive patients delivered their babies in the preterm period (< 37 weeks). The corresponding rate was 8.3% (1/12) in the influenza-negative group. This difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.077).
    Conclusions: Preterm deliveries in pregnant women did not differ significantly among influenza-postive and influenza-negative pregnant women in non-vaccinated study population. Further studies with larger sample sizes may provide more supporting results.

    Abstract Fetal lymphangioma is a hamartomatous congenital anomaly of the lymphatic system, which is embracing the fetal skin (sometimes mucous membranes) and the subcutaneous tissue. The general consensus is that it occurs as a result of failure in lymphatic drainage. A 36-year-old pregnant woman was referred to our perinatology clinic at 22 weeks' gestation, because of a fetal right-sided axillary mass revealed by ultrasonography. The mass measuring 5x7x7cm in three dimensions had a multilocular structure without colour Doppler flow and well-circumscribed borders. Amniocentesis revealed a normal constitutional karyotyping. Lymphangioma was considered as prediagnosis. A healthy female baby weighing 3470 grams was delivered at term. Neonatal examination and the postnatal MRI confirmed the diagnosis. The baby is still on follow-up with the medical treatment of Sirolimus an anti-proliferative drug, and the mass got smaller significantly in 8 months after delivery.
