Öğe Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Routine Practice: A Turkish Multicenter Study(Galenos Yayincilik, 2019) Çiftçiler, Rafiye; Sevindik, Omur Gokmen; Tekgunduz, Ali Irfan Emre; Erkurt, Mehmet Ali; Vural, Filiz; Turgut, Burhan; Demirkan, FatihObjective: Significant developments occurred in the clinical management of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in adults in recent decades. However, treatment results are still not satisfactory, especially in routine practice. The objective of this study was to evaluate the general clinical features, treatment details, and outcomes of a large group of patients followed in multiple centers in Turkey with a diagnosis of ALL. Materials and Methods: A retrospective analysis of the data of patients with ALL was made, the patients having been diagnosed and treated between January 2003 and June 2017 by different protocols in the hematology clinics of ten different centers. A total of 288 patients, aged between 17 and 76 years old, were included in the study. In this retrospective multicenter analysis of patients with ALL, classification of patients was performed based on treatment period, Philadelphia chromosome positivity, treatment regimen, and administration of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Results: The majority of cases were B-cell in origin, while 224 patients had B-ALL and 64 of the patients had T-ALL. Median follow-up duration for all patients was 18.2 months (range: 0.03-161 months). Philadelphia chromosome positivity was determined in 49 patients (21.9%), and 54 patients (18.8%) were receiving allo-HSCT. After induction chemotherapy, 219 patients (76.0%) achieved complete remission, 32 patients (11.2%) were evaluated as treatment refractory, and 37 patients (12.8%) were deceased. Median overall survival was 47.7 months (95% confidence interval: 36.1-59.2) and median disease-free survival was 23.4 months (95% confidence interval: 6.7-40.0) for all patients. Conclusion: Multicenter studies are extremely important for defining the specific clinical features of a particular disease. The results of this study will make a significant contribution to the literature as they reflect real-life data providing valuable information about the Turkish ALL patient profile.Öğe Prospective registry of adult patients receiving therapeutic plasma exchange with a presumptive diagnosis of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA): The Turkish hematology research and education group (ThREG)-TMA02 study(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2022) Akpınar, Seval; Tekgündüz, Emre; Esen, Ramazan; Yılmaz, Mehmet; Karakuş, Volkan; Vural, Filiz; Demirkan, FatihTo understand who uses social media and how often they do so, we examined the personality traits that predict frequency of using a set of 10 different types of social media (e.g., social networks, blogs, virtual worlds). Using survey data collected from two large-scale samples of young adults (Exploratory Study 1 N = 1586, Confirmatory Study 2 N =1432), we conducted direct replications of our findings to test whether the observed relationships between social media use and personality traits were reliable. Our replicated findings reveal that sex, age and extraversion are reliable predictors of several types of social media use (e.g., Facebook, Messaging Platforms, Online Forums), while other traits (e.g., agreeableness, Machiavellianism) showed unreliable associations. Our findings also reveal dimensions of multiplatform social media use that categorize the media ecologies of young adults and show significant associations with individual difference measures.
