It was designed as a cross-sectional study in 9 cities at SEAP Region, Turkey in 2001. Sample was chosen by Institute of Statistics by sampling method proportional to size. Totally, 230 cluster and 1150 houses were visited with an optimum sample size representing the rural and urban area of SEAP Region. Firstly, questionnaires about house and household water were applied and then, water samples were collected for microbiological and chemical analyses. The level of clorinization of household water was also measured. Totally 79.9% of the houses (59% in rural, 93% in urban) were supplying their drinking-water by piped community water. Approximately 75% of water samples did not contain chlorin, 45.9% of water samples were defined as infected microbiologically and 28.4% chemically. Failure to provide healthy drinking water in this region will result to the risk of outbreaks of intestinal and other infectious diseases.Öğe Evaluation of porter examination of food factory workers(Refik Saydam National Public Health Agency (RSNPHA), 2020) Toktaş I.; Ceylan A.Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of Salmonella spp., Shigella spp. and parasites in the gaita and the prevalence of staphylococcus in the nose and to prevent the spread of diseases by treating the identified carriers the food factory workers in Diyarbakir. Methods: This descriptive study was carried out between 15 November and 30 December 2009. According to the records of the Provincial Directorate of Agriculture in Diyarbakir province, there are 15 food factories and 568 personnel work in these food factories. 50% of the employees working in the food factories in the province were aimed to be sampled. A questionnaire was applied to 252 individuals who agreed to participate in the study. Nasal and stool samples were taken from all the food workers who were surveyed and written consent was obtained from the participants. However, since nine people did not have laboratory results due to lack of samples or sampling, 243 people (85.6% of thesample) were included in the study. Nasal specimens were collected from 237 subjects and stool specimens were taken from 217 subjects. Stool samples of the employees were evaluated within half an hour. The data obtained were calculated frequency, percentage and mean values by using SPSS program. Chi-square, Fisher's Exact tests were used for statistical analysis. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The mean age of the study group was 30,9 ± 8,9 years and 93,4% of them were male. The incidence of parasites in stool was found to be higher in the workers whose toilet was not connected to the sewer system or whose toilet was outside the house (p <0,05). Staphylococcus aureus carriage was found to be 5,49 times higher in the cooks than in the other employees. On the nose S. aureus carriage rate was 7.6% and parasite carriage in the intestine was 7.4%. In the Gaita culture, Salmonella spp. and Shigella spp. were observed but no growth was observed. Conclusion: The high level of parasitic carriage and S. aureus carriage in the food factory workers indicate the lack of personal hygiene in employees. The S. aureus carriage was found to be higher in the nose of the cooks than the other workers. In the porter examination, the patients who were found to be carriers or patients were treated and hygiene training was provided to the employees. © 2020 Refik Saydam National Public Health Agency (RSNPHA.Öğe Prevalence of asthma and other allergic disorders among schoolchildren in Diyarbakir, Turkey(2001) Ece A.; Ceylan A.; Saraçlar Y.; Saka G.; Gürkan F.; Haspolat K.This study was performed to describe the prevalence rates of allergic diseases among children in southeast Anatolia. A questionnaire survey of children six to 15 years old was conducted using a modified version of the Turkish translated ISAAC protocol, with additional questions concerning sociodemographic and environmental characteristics of children that could be potential risk factors for allergic disorders. Questionnaires were distributed to parents of all children aged below 11 years and to children themselves aged over 11 for completion. A total of 3,040 children returned the questionnaires. The lifetime prevalence rates of asthma, wheezing, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis were 14.1%, 22.4%, 12.9%, and 7.8%, respectively. The prevalence of wheezing, rhinitis and chronic rash in the last 12 months were 14.7%, 39.9%, and 11.8%, respectively. The prevalence rates of symptoms and diagnoses of allergic disorders were similar in boys and girls. Passive smoking, pet ownership, number of household and socioeconomic status were not significant risk factors for allergic diseases. Family history of atopy was the most prominent risk factor for all types of allergic diseases. high prevalence rates of asthma, rhinitis and eczema exist among schoolchildren in southeast Anatolia.Öğe Seroprevalence of hepatitis b and tetanus among ezidian (Yazidi) women fleeing war(Bulgarian Society for Microbiology (Union of Scientists in Bulgaria), 2018) Özcan N.; Bulut Z.K.; Evinç E.; Yiğitalp G.; Özekinci T.; Ceylan A.Women suffer much from wars and forced migrations. In 2014, Ezidians (Yazidis) living in Iraq migrated to Syria and then to Turkey due to civil war. Tetanus is a bacterial infection caused by Clostridium tetani spores getting into the body. Hepatitis B is an infection caused by the hepatitis B virus. Both hepatitis B and tetanus are vaccine-preventable diseases. We aimed to evaluate the seroprevalence of tetanus and hepatitis B among Yazidi women who had fled to our country and have been living in a tent city. This study was conducted in Diyarbakır province, located in Southeastern Turkey, between July 2015 and February 2016. A total of 245 Yazidi women aged between 15 and 49 years, living in a tent city, were included. HBsAg, anti-HBs and anti-HBcIgG were studied by ELISA method with Cobas e 601 (Roche Diagnostics, Switzerland) system autoanalyzer. Antibodies to tetanus toxin were tested by ELISA method with the Virotech ELISA tetanus (Virotech, Germany). Of the 245 women, 38 (15.5%) had vaccine-induced immunity, while 11 (4.5%) had antibodies against hepatitis B due to previous exposure. Two women (0.8%) had isolated anti-HBcIgG positivity. Among 245 women, 96 (39.2%) had anti-tetanus antibodies. This population was notably susceptible to both tetanus and hepatitis B. Vaccination of this sensitive population was important for the well-being of the women, their spouses and children to be born. © 2018, Bulgarian Society for Microbiology (Union of Scientists in Bulgaria).

For control, serum samples from 200 women living in the same health center region were collected. It was evaluated as partially protective, protective and longterm protection when tetanus antibody level was 0,01-<0,1 IU/ml, 0,1-<1.0 IU/ml and 1,0 IU/ml and over, respectively. RESULTS: The mean age of the women was 26.4, mean marriage and first pregnancy ages were 17.9 and 18.9, respectively, and 40% of the subjects had never been examined or received follow up by a health center. It was revealed that 25.8% of the subjects were not protected and 74.2% had a full protection level of antibody. Within the control group, the same levels of antibodies were detected in 40.0% and 60.0% of the women, respectively. CONCLUSION: The study indicates that the immunity levels against tetanus are not satisfactory and every childbearing aged woman should be included in a vaccination program whenever they receive any examination in a health center.Öğe Typhoid fever outbreak in Ahmetli village, Ergani-Diyarbakir(2003) Ceylan A.; Acemo?lu H.; Hoşo?lu S.; Gül K.; Ilçin E.; Efe M.Salmonella typhi leads to typhoid fever outbreaks due to the contamination of drinking water.
