    EVALUATION OF THE COMPATIBILITY OF ATRIUM AND VENTRICULAR MEASUREMENTS IN THORACIC COMPUTERIZED TOMOGRAPHY AND CORONARY COMPUTERIZED TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY
    (2020) Ustabaşıoğlu, Fethi Emre; Özgür, Cihan; Karabulut, Derya; Tunçbilek, Nermin; Samancı, Cesur
    Aim: We aimed to evaluate the consistency of the measurements of diameter and area of cardiac chambers in coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) and contrast-enhanced thoracic computed tomography (CT) images.Materials and Methods: 30 patients who underwent thoracic CT and coronary CTA over a 6-month period between August 2016 and August 2019 were included in the study. Maximum left atrium area, anteroposterior and transverse left atrium diameter, right atrium transverse diameter, right and left ventricular transverse diameters were measured by two observers. Inter-observer and intra-observerContrast-enhanced thoracic CT and coronary CTA measurements of the cardiac chambers were found to be perfectly compatible. Both left atrial axial area and AP diameter were evaluated on coronary CTA images and contrast-enhanced thoracic CT with excellent reproducibility.Conclusion: To our knowledge, this is the first study that shows the measurement of diameter and area of the cardiac chambers in thoracic CT and coronary CTA and comparing them with each other. Thoracic CT, with its high reproducibility, could be a useful tool in evaluation of cardiac chambers.

    The effect of papaverine on tendon healing and adhesion in rats following Achilles tendon repair
    (2024) Can, Erdem; Dincel, Yasar Mahsut; Karabulut, Derya; Karabağ, Sevil; Arslan, Yunus Ziya
    Objectives: The study aimed to examine the histopathological and biomechanical effects of papaverine administered intraperitoneally and locally on Achilles tendon healing in a rat model. Materials and methods: Forty-eight adult male Sprague- Dawley rats (range, 300 to 400 g) were used in this study conducted between October and November 2022. The rats were divided into three groups, with each group further subdivided into two for sacrifice on either the 15th (early period) or 30th (late period) day after surgery. The first (control) group received no treatment following Achilles tendon repair, while papaverine was intraperitoneally administered every other day for 10 days in the second group and locally in the third group after surgery. On the 15th and 30th days, the rats were sacrificed, and their Achilles tendons were subjected to biomechanical testing and histopathological evaluation. Results: Histopathologically, there were no significant differences among the groups on the 15th day. However, on the 30th day, the locally applied papaverine group exhibited superior histopathological outcomes compared to the control group (p<0.05). Concerning the highest tensile strength values before rupture, the biomechanical assessment showed that the group receiving local papaverine treatment in the early period and both the group with systemic papaverine treatment and the one with local papaverine treatment in the late period displayed a statistically significant advantage compared to the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Locally administered papaverine has positive biomechanical effects in the early period and exhibits a positive correlation both histopathologically and biomechanically in the late period. Novel therapeutic options may be provided for patients through these findings.
