Characteristics of traumatic spinal cord injuries in south-eastern Anatolia, Turkey: a comparative approach to 10 years' experience
Gur, A; Kemaloglu, MS; Cevik, R; Sarac, AJ; Nas, K; Kapukaya, A; Sahin, H (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005)The purpose of this study was to determine the demographic and epidemiological characteristics of traumatic spinal cord-injured patients. The hospital records of 539 patients (416 men, 123 women) with spinal cord injuries ... -
Comparison of zinc excretion and biochemical markers of bone remodelling in the assessment of the effects of alendronate and calcitonin on bone in postmenopausal osteoporosis
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determinate the clinical usefulness of urinary bone resorption markers, urinary zinc excretion, and other biochemical markers in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. We also ... -
Cortisol and hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis hormones in follicular-phase women with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome and effect of depressive symptoms on these hormones
We investigated abnormalities of the hypothalamic-pituitary gonadal axis and cortisol concentrations in women with fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) who were in the follicular phase of their menstrual cycle, ... -
The effect of calcitonin on biochemical markers and zinc excretion in postmenopausal osteoporosis
Objectives: A double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis to evaluate effects on biochemical markers and urinary excretion of zinc (Zn) of calcitonin therapy. ... -

Effects of low power laser and low dose amitriptyline therapy on clinical symptoms and quality of life in fibromyalgia
Gür, A; Karakoc, M; Nas, K; Cevik, R; Sarac, AJ; Ataoglu, S (Springer Heidelberg, 2002)The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of low power laser (LPL) and low-dose amitriptyline therapy and to investigate effects of these therapy modalities on clinical symptoms and quality of life (QOL) ... -
Hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis and cortisol in young women with primary fibromyalgia: the potential roles of depression, fatigue, and sleep disturbance in the occurrence of hypocortisolism
Objectives: To investigate abnormalities of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and cortisol concentrations in young women with primary fibromyalgia ( FM); and to determine whether depression, fatigue, and sleep ... -
Hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis hormones and cortisol in both menstrual phases of women with chronic fatigue syndrome and effect of depressive mood on these hormones
Background: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a disease which defined as medically unexplained, disabling fatigue of 6 months or more duration and often accompanied by several of a long list of physical complaints. We aimed ... -
The influence of duration of breastfeeding on bone mass in postmenopausal women of different age groups
Gur, A; Cevik, R; Nas, K; Sarac, AJ; Ataoglu, S; Karakoc, M; Can, A (Wiley, 2003)This study examines the influence of duration of breastfeeding on bone mineral density (BMD) and investigates the relationship between duration of breastfeeding and bone mass at four sites in postmenopausal women of different ... -
Influence of number of pregnancies on bone mineral density in postmenopausal women of different age groups
Gur, A; Nas, K; Cevik, R; Sarac, AJ; Ataoglu, S; Karakoc, M (Springer Japan Kk, 2003)As data on the relationship between parity and bone mineral density often seem to be controversial, ultimately, a comprehensive research study was thought to be necessary. This study focused on examining the influence of ... -
Possible pathogenetic role of new cytokines in postmenopausal osteoporosis and changes during calcitonin plus calcium therapy
Gür, A; Denli, A; Nas, K; Cevik, R; Karakoc, M; Sarac, AJ; Erdogan, F (Springer-Verlag, 2002)The present study was designed to test if the serum cytokines (interleukin, or IL-1beta, -2, -2r, -6, -6r, -8, and -10, and tumor necrosis factor alpha, or TNF-alpha) and osteocalcin levels were different between 50 ...
