This research is focused on the examination of child cancer cases in Zonguldak (Turkey) descriptively in epidemiological aspect thanks to GIS. Universe of the study is composed of 60 children between 0-19 years old, treated in Children Oncology Clinic of Health Application and Research Center in BEU. Whole universe was reached without selecting a sample in the study. Data were collected by using a form prepared by obtaining expert advice and they were applied to children and their parents at study dates. Results were expressed as percentages. Chi-Square test was used in intergroup comparisons, results were assessed within 95% confidence interval and p<0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Variables that were used in the study were assessed, recorded in prepared data collection form and distribution maps were produced. When disease diagnosis of the children participated in the study were evaluated, it was observed that 33.3% (n=20) were being treated for ALL, 13.3% (n=8) for Medullablastoma and 11.7% (n=7) for Hodgkin-nonHodgkin Lymphoma. It was detected that 31.7% (n=19) were in Ereğli, 31.7% (n=19) were in Central district and 18.3% (n=11) were in Çaycuma, when the places where children were living were evaluated. Statistically significant difference was found (p=0.016) comparing disease diagnosis with living place, and overall distribution map of the number of cancer cases was produced in this context. This is the first research subjecting the distribution of cancer cases for Zonguldak province.

Postmenopausal Endometriosis

Introduction: We aimed to describe and review the epidemiological aspect of the disease pattern of a series of perimenopausal and postmenopausal women with a histology confirmation of endometriosis. Material and Methods: We retrospectively examined the clinical records of 184 perimenopausal and 46 postmenopausal women with endometriosis. Data were collected and analyzed from 1100 patients’ charts with confirmed endometriosis and involved cases from two different geographical areas, New Haven (US) and Greece. The statistical methods included ×2 and the Mann-Whitney U test. In the perimenopausal group (age 45–54 years), there were 184 patients (16.7%) and the postmenopausal group (55–80 years) had 46 (4.2%). The average age of diagnosis was (49 ± 2.3) and (61.2 ± 5.1), respectively (p < 0.01). Results: Advanced endometriosis was more aggressive in the perimenopausal group (p < 0.05); in the same group, we observed a higher left-sided predisposition of endometriosis in comparison with the right side (p < 0.01). Endometrioma was the most common gynecological condition among patients with perimenopausal endometriosis in relation to the postmenopausal group (p < 0.001). Additionally, we found uterine leiomyomata more prominent in the perimenopausal group (p < 0.05). In contrast, adenomyosis was found higher in postmenopausal patients (p < 0.05); further, 24 cases with dry eye we observed. Conclusions: Postmenopausal endometriosis is an important underestimated condition. Although the reported situation is not common, various clinicopathological characteristics were observed in both groups. Clinicians should be aware that there is a correlation between endometriosis and endometriosis-associated ovarian cancer in perimenopausal and postmenopausal age.

AbstractThe occurrence of developmental stages of endoparasite germs (cysts, oocysts, protozoa, and helminth eggs) as an indirect detection factor of endoparasitoses circulation in the environment, was examined in raw municipal wastewater, sludge and biologically cleaned waste water. Examination of municipal wastewater and sludge from five monitored wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) in east Slovakia, from various fractions of municipal wastewater, confirmed 35.87 % positivity of samples for the endoparasitic germs. Among of all analysed samples 11.09 % were protozoan oo(cysts) and 20.87 % were helminth eggs. 3.91 % of samples showed positivity to both the helminth eggs and protozoan oo(cysts). In the raw wastewater the protozoa comprised of Giardia spp. (1.08 %) and Entamoeba spp. (1.08 %). The helminth eggs primarily consisted of Ascaris spp. (4.35 %) and strongyle-type eggs (3.26 %). No germs of protozoa or helminths were found in the treated wastewater. However, the highest presence of the germs was found in drained stabilised sludge. The average number of oo(cysts)/kg was 2.86±0.24 and the average number of helminth eggs/kg was 5.77±0.09. In all kinds of sludge, obtained during the process of wastewater treatment, there were protozoan (Giardia spp., Cryptosporidium spp., Entamoeba spp.) and helminths eggs (Ascaris spp., Trichuris spp., Taenia spp., Hymenolepis spp., or strongyle-type eggs) presented. In drained (condensed) stabilised sludge the eggs of Capillaria spp. and Toxocara spp. were also detected. From the epidemiological aspect the sewage sludge, due to high concentration of protozoal oo(cysts) or helminth eggs, represents a significant epidemiological risk for the endoparasitoses dissemination.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to assess the epidemiological aspect and the difficulties associated with the surgical management of hyperthyroidism in our context. Hyperthyroidism is an over function of the thyroid gland resulting in thyrotoxicosis. Thyroidectomy is one of the Main treatments. It also uses synthetic antithyroid drugs, radioactive iodine. Methodology: We carried out a descriptive 6-year retrospective from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2017 inclusively. Our study variables were qualitative and quantitative, Results: During our study, 26 cases were collected between January 2011 and August 2017 with a predominance of 73% female and an average age of 52, 78 years. The clinic was dominated by the signs of thyrotoxicosis which were found in all patients. The exploration identified 14 cases of toxic multi-hetero nodular goiter, ie 53.84%; 9 cases of basal disease 34, 66% and 3 cases of toxic adenoma 11, 54%. Medical preparation was required in all our patients Total thyroidectomy was performed in one patient, i.e. 4%, and Lobo isthmectomy in 24 patients, ie 96%. Postoperatively, complications were collected: 1 case of intraoperative hemorrhage 20%; 1 case of postoperative hematoma 20%; 1 case of dysphonia 20%. Conclusion: Surgery for toxic goiter known to be hemorrhagic and adherent should be performed after obtaining euthyroidism and double vigilance to minimize the morbidity represented mainly by laryngeal paralysis and hyperparathyroidism

Background: Rabies is a public health problem in Bangladesh, with poorer people and children being mainly affected. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the behaviours of dog bite victims following a bite and to assess the knowledge and attitude about rabies among dog bite victims. Materials and Methods: A crosssectional type of descriptive study was designed where individual people who came to the vaccination centre from the month of April 2015 to July 2015 for post-exposure prophylaxis were considered. They were interviewed and followed during subsequent visits until they had received their final dose of vaccination. Result: Among the victims, males 60.9% were more common than females 39.1% and most of them were children aged below 20 years 51 %, mostly from rural areas 69.3%, had very little primary 46.1% or no education 24.7%. Victims were bitten mostly at their legs 89.3%. In response to question regarding what happens following dog bite, 49% couldn't say anything, and 46% mentioned hydrophobia. Most of them (87%) know that rabies can be transmitted from dogs to humans; 68.4% had no idea that rabies can be prevented in dogs. Though 82.3% bite victims didn't know that rabies in humans can be prevented before a dog bite, 77.7% knew that rabies can be prevented after a dog bite. Use of soap and water was found lowest 13.1% among those who had education upto primary level and highest 53.9% in graduates. Conclusion: This study showed that most victims didn't take any washing measures before visiting to hospital which is one of the most important measures recommended by WHO and it was found mostly who had low education level. It also observed that knowledge gap about rabies among the dog bite victims decreased with increased education level. KYAMC Journal Vol. 9, No.-4, January 2019, Page 148-152
