Öğe CFTR mutations unidentified in CFTR2 database and their phenotypic characteristics: Data from cystic fibrosis registry of Turkey(European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2020) Cinel, Guzin; Dogru, Deniz; Cakir, Erkan; Eyuboglu, Tugba Sismanlar; Cobanoglu, Nazan; Pekcan, Sevgi; Yalcin, Ebru[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Clinical characteristics of patients requiring lung transplantation referral in national cystic fibrosis registry data(Turkish J Pediatrics, 2023) Onay, Zeynep Reyhan; Eyuboglu, Tugba Sismanlar; Aslan, Ayse Tana; Gursoy, Tugba Ramasli; Yalcin, Ebru; Kiper, Nural; Emiralioglu, NagehanBackground. We aimed to determine the number of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients recorded in the Cystic Fibrosis Registry of Turkiye (CFRT) who were in need of lung transplantation (LT) referral and examine clinical differences between patients who were LT candidates due to rapid forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) decline and LT candidates without rapid FEV1 decline in the last year to identify a preventable cause in patients with such rapid FEV1 decline. Methods. All CF patients recorded in the CFRT in 2018 were evaluated in terms of LT. Patients were divided into those with FEV1 below 50% and in need of LT due to a decrease of 20% or more in the previous year (Group 1) and those who did not have FEV1 decline of more than 20% in the previous year but had other indications for LT (Group 2). Demographic and clinical features were compared between the two groups. Results. Of 1488 patients registered in CFRT, 58 had a need for LT. Twenty patients were included in Group 1 and others in Group 2. Our findings did not reveal any significant variations in treatment, chronic infection status, or complications between the two groups. The average weight z-score was significantly higher in Group 1. Positive correlations were detected between weight z-score and FEV1 in 2017 in Group 1 and between FEV1 values in 2017 and 2018 in Group 2. Conclusions. There appears to be a relationship between the nutritional status and weight z-scores of CF patients and pulmonary function, which may indirectly affect the need for lung transplantation referral.Öğe Comparison of clinical features of cystic fibrosis patients eligible but not on CFTR modulators to ineligible for CFTR modulators(Wiley, 2024) Buyuksahin, Halime Nayir; Emiralioglu, Nagehan; Yalcin, Ebru; Sen, Velat; Sen, Hadice Selimoglu; Arslan, Huseyin; Baskan, Azer KilicIntroduction: Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator drugs target the underlying defect and improve CFTR function. They are a part of standard care in many countries, but not all patients are eligible for these drugs due to age and genotype. Here, we aimed to determine the characteristics of non-eligible patients for CFTR modulators in the CF registry of Turkey (CFRT) to highlight their clinical needs. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included CF patient data from the CFRT in 2021. The decision of eligibility for the CFTR modulator was determined according to the 'Vertex treatment-Finder' on the Vertex (R) website. Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients were compared between eligible (group 1) and ineligible (group 2) groups for CFTR modulators. Results: Among the study population (N = 1527), 873 (57.2%) were in group 1 and 654 (42.8%) were in group 2. There was no statistical difference between groups regarding sex, meconium ileus history, diagnoses via newborn screening, FEV1 z-score, CF-associated complications, organ transplant history, and death. Patients in group 2 had a higher incidence of pancreatic insufficiency (87.7% vs. 83.2%, p = .010), lower median height z-scores (-0.87 vs. -0.55, p < .001), lower median body mass index z-scores (-0.65 vs. -0.50, p < .001), longer days receiving antibiotics due to pulmonary exacerbation (0 [interquartile range, IQR: 0-2] vs. 0 [IQR: 0-7], p = 0.001), and more non-invasive ventilation support (2.6% vs. 0.9%, p = 0.008) than patients in group 1. Conclusion: The ineligible group had worse clinical outcomes than the eligible group. This highlights their need for life-changing drugs to improve clinical outcomes.Öğe Cystic Fibrosis Patients Eligible for Modulator Drugs: Data from Cystic Fibrosis Registry of Turkey(European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2019) Cobanoglu, Fatma Nazan; Ersoz, Deniz Dogru; Cakir, Erkan; Eyuboglu, Tugba Sismanlar; Pekcan, Sevgi; Cinel, Guzin; Yalcin, Ebru[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Evaluation of respiratory function at 6 years of age in patients with cystic fibrosis with frequent pulmonary exacerbations in the first 2 years of life(European Respiratory Soc Journals Ltd, 2023) Tabakci, Sati Ozkan; Cinel, Guzin; Uytun, Salih; Polat, Sanem Eryilmaz; Yalcin, Ebru; Kiper, Nural; Erdal, Meltem Akgul[Abstract Not Available]
