    AGE-AND SEX-RELATED DIFFERENCES IN PHYSICAL FITNESS AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS OF THE PHYSICALLY INDEPENDENT COMMUNITY-DWELLING OLDER ADULTS
    (Gunes Kitabevi Ltd Sti, 2015) Cirak, Yasemin; Yilmaz Yelvar, Gul Deniz; Parlak Demir, Yasemin; Dalkilinc, Murat; Mustafa, Korkmaz; Tagil, Suleyman Murat
    Introduction: The aim of the study was to assess health-related physical fitness and physical activity levels of young elderly (60-69 years) and old elderly (70-80 years) people and to show the differences with age and gender. Materials and Method: The level of physical activity was evaluated using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire(IPAQ-short) and each participant completed a battery of health-releated physical fitness tests adapted from ALPHA-FIT test batteries. Results: A sample of 143 participants aged between 60 to 80 years, of which 70 were in young elderly group (60-69 years) and 73 were in old elderly group (70-80 years) was recruited. One leg stand, figure of eight walk and shoulder neck mobility showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) between young elderly (60-69 years) and old elderly women (70-80 years). But there is no statistically significant difference in the distance of six minute walk test for the cardiorespiratory fitness between young elderly and old elderly women. Hand grip and shoulder neck mobility showed a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) between age groups. In the body composition, no statistically significant difference were observed between two age groups in the waist circumference and BMI regardless of gender. There is no statistically significant difference in the total score of physical activity between young elderly and old elderly men. But a significant difference (p<0.05) between young elderly and old elderly women was found. Conclusions: Our results indicate that women had much more decreased physical fitness and physical activity level with age.

    The Mechanisms of Medial Pedicle Wall Violation: Insertion Method Is as Important as Correct Cannulation of the Pedicle
    (Hindawi Ltd, 2014) Isik, Cengiz; Kose, Kamil Cagri; Inanmaz, Mustafa Erkan; Tagil, Suleyman Murat; Sarman, Hakan
    A cadaver study aims to determine the mechanisms of medial pedicle wall violation after a correct cannulation of the pedicle. The study presents finding out the effect of insertion angle and insertion force on medial wall violation. We used 100 lumbar pedicles of cadavers. Special wooden blocks were produced to simulate a fixed angle fault after a correct pedicle cannulation. Pedicles were divided into 4 groups: 10-degree free drive (group 10), 15-degree free drive (group 15), 10-degree push drive (group 10P), and 15-degree push drive (group 15P). After insertion of pedicle screws, laminectomies were done and the pedicles were evaluated from the inside. Pedicle complications were more in group 10P than group 10 (P = 0.009). Medial wall fracture (P = 0.002) and canal penetration were more in group 15P than group 15 (P = 0.001). Groups 10P and 15P were similar regarding medial wall fractures but canal penetration was significantly higher in group 15P (P = 0.001). Medial wall breaches can happen after correct cannulation of pedicles. Change in insertion angle is one factor but the most important factor is the use of a pushing force while inserting a screw. The pedicle seems to be extremely tolerant to insertion angulationmistakes up to 10 degrees and tends to lead the screw into the correct path spontaneously.

    Wet-cupping removes oxidants and decreases oxidative stress
    (Churchill Livingstone, 2014) Tagil, Suleyman Murat; Celik, Huseyin Tugrul; Ciftci, Sefa; Kazanci, Fatmanur Hacievliyagil; Arslan, Muzeyyen; Erdamar, Nazan; Kesik, Yunus
    Objectives: Wet-cupping therapy is one of the oldest known medical techniques. Although it is widely used in various conditions such as acute \ chronic inflammation, infectious diseases, and immune system disorders, its mechanism of action is not fully known. In this study, we investigated the oxidative status as the first step to elucidate possible mechanisms of action of wet cupping. Material and methods: Wet cupping therapy is implemented to 31 healthy volunteers. Venous blood samples and Wet cupping blood samples were taken concurrently. Serum nitricoxide, malondialdehyde levels and activity of superoxide dismutase and myeloperoxidase were measured spectrophotometrically. Results: Wet cupping blood had higher activity of myeloperoxidase, lower activity of superoxide dismutase, higher levels of malondialdehyde and nitricoxide compared to the venous blood. Conclusion: Wet cupping removes oxidants and decreases oxidative stress. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
