    Exclusive breastfeeding among infants less than or equal to 6 months old and continued breastfeeding (20-23 months) are high-priority indicators of infant health. We aimed to assess breastfeeding practices, using standardized breastfeeding indicators, and to determine the causes of early discontinuation of breastfeeding (? 6 months) in children aged 0 to 24 months in Duzce, Turkey. In this cross-sectional study, the study group consisted of 158 children, and questionnaires were completed by face-to-face interviews with the mothers. The rate of exclusive breastfeeding (? 6 months) was 22.4%. The rate of continued breastfeeding (20-23 months) was 10.0%. The 2 primary causes of early discontinuation of breastfeeding were inadequate milk supply (38.1%) and baby not latching on (14.3%). Half of the individuals who recommended infant formula to mothers with infants less than or equal to 6 months old were physicians. © Copyright 2008 International Lactation Consultant Association.

    (Galenos Yayincilik, 2005) Alhan, Ali; Ozdemipr, Ismail; Somunkiran, Asli; Demirci, Fuat; Yucel, Oguz; Bahcebasi, Talat
    Objective: To establish the accuracy of saline infusion sonohysterography and hysteroscopy in diagnosing uterine pathology in women with abnormal uterine bleeding. Materials and Methods: A total of 39 women with abnormal uterine bleeding were recruited for the study and underwent transvaginal ultrasonography followed by saline infusion sonohysterography. During hysteroscopy, resection of the focal intracavitary lesion was performed. Endometrial sampling was obtained from all patients. Results: Sonohysterographic and hysteroscopic evaluation revealed 25 and 24 endometrial polyps, 7 each submucous myomas, 3 and 1 endometrial hyperplasia, 1 each synechia, and 3 and 6 normal findings, respectively. Comparison of histopathologic findings with other diagnostic tests revealed that hysteroscopy demonstrated a sensitivity of 97%, specificity of 72%, positive predictive value of 94%, negative predictive value of 83% and total sensitivity of 92%. Sonohysterography showed sensitivity of 97%, specificity of 29%, positive predictive value of 86%, negative predictive value of 85% and total sensitivity of 85%. Conclusion: In comparison with hysteroscopy, sonohysterography is a cheaper and easier procedure for detecting endometrial pathologies such as endometrial polyps and submucous myomas with its highly diagnostic value.

    EVALUATION OF ANTI-BODY RESPONSE OF HEMODIALYSIS AND PERITONEAL DIALYSIS PATIENTS TO HEPATITIS-B VACCINE
    (Istanbul Univ, Faculty Medicine, Publishing Office, 2007) Alcelik, Aytekin; Bicik, Zerrin; Bahcebasi, Talat; Acikgoz, Elif; Yildirim, Mustafa; Onder, Elif
    Objective: Hemodialysis patients are at higher risk for Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection when compared with the rest of the population. Adequate antibody response (approximately 90%) is achieved when healthy individuals are immunized with HBV vaccine; however, the response is about 50% and 70% in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. In this study, it is aimed to assess the influence of different factors and the type of renal replacement, for antibody response to double dose of recombinant HBV-vaccine in dialysis patients. Materials and methods: In this retrospective study, we included 37 patients (19 males, 18 females) who were in the schedule of hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) at the Dialysis Center of Duzce University Hospital between 2004 and 2005. The patients were administered double doses of recombinant DNA derived HBV vaccine IM for four times at 0, 1, 2, and 6 months. The patients' antibody responses were determined ated by ELISA test. Results: Six of the 37 patients (16.2%) had no response to the vaccine, while 15 patients (40.5%) had low response and 16 patients (43.2%) had complete response. There was no difference between hemodialysis patients and peritoneal dialysis patients in terms of the antibody response (p>0.05). Levels of hemoglobin, total cholesterol, triglyceride and albumin, type and duration of dialysis, and gender were not correlated with the antibody response (p>0.05). Conclusion: As a result, for dialysis patients, antibody response to the HBV-vaccine is lower than that in the healthy population and this decline in response seems to be multifactorial.
