    Electric scooters as a silent source of danger in increasing use among young people: a single-center in-depth accident analysis
    (Turkish Assoc Trauma Emergency Surgery, 2023) Demir, Necdet; Dokur, Mehmet; Agdogan, Ozgur; Koc, Suna; Karadag, Mehmet; Dokur, Ibrahim Fikri
    BACKGROUND: The reasons for the increase in accidents involving shared stand-up e-scooters in recent years may be the wide-spread use of e-scooters among young people, especially in metropolitan areas with heavy traffic, non-compliance with traffic rules, and insufficient legal regulations. In this study, we analyzed in detail the typical features of rider-sharing e-scooter-related injuries brought to the emergency department of our hospital in the light of current literature.METHODS: The clinical and accident characteristics of 60 patients with surgical requirements who were brought to the emergency department of our hospital due to e-scooter-related accidents between 2020 and 2020 were analyzed using statistical methods ret-rospectively.RESULTS: The majority of the victims were university students and the number of victims of the male gender was slightly higher and the mean age was 25.3 +/- 13.0 years. Most e-scooter accidents occur on weekdays. Most of the e-scooter-related accidents happen on weekdays and are non-collision type accidents. The majority of e-scooter-related accident victims were in the minor trauma group (injury severity score <9), predominantly had extremity and soft-tissue injuries and needed radiological examination (44 patients, 73.3%), and only eight victims (13.3%) required surgical operation and also all of the e-scooter victims were discharged fully healed.CONCLUSION: Among the more common collision-free e-scooter-related accidents that have a lower trauma severity score or cause minor soft-tissue injury, mono-trauma occurs more commonly than multisystem trauma; likewise, radius and nasal-weighted monofractures occur more commonly than multiple fractures, according to this study. Besides, effective measures and legal regulations should be put in place to prevent e-scooter-related accidents.

    Most notable 100 articles of COVID-19: an Altmetric study based on bibliometric analysis
    (Springer London Ltd, 2021) Borku Uysal, Betul; Islamoglu, Mehmet Sami; Koc, Suna; Karadag, Mehmet; Dokur, Mehmet
    Objective The purpose of this study is to guide researchers in the COVID-19 pandemic by evaluating the 100 most cited articles of COVID-19 in terms of bibliometric analysis, Altmetric scores, and dimension badges. Methods COVID-19 was entered as the search term in Thomson Reuter's Web of Science database. The 100 most cited articles (T100) were analyzed bibliometrically. Altmetric attention scores (AASs) and dimension badge scores of the articles were evaluated. Results T100 articles were published from January to September 2020. The average citation of the top 100 articles on COVID-19 was 320 +/- 344.3 (143-2676). The language of all articles was English. The average Altmetric value of T100 is 3246 +/- 3795 (85-16,548) and the mean dimension badge value was 670 +/- 541.6 (176-4232). Epidemiological features (n = 22) and treatment (n = 21) were at the top of the main topics of T100 articles. Conclusion The more citations an article is made, the more it indicates the contribution of that article to science. However, the number of citations is not always the only indicator of article quality. The existence of methods that measure the impact of the article outside the academia to measure the value of the article arises more in an issue that affects the whole world, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.

    The Prognostic Importance of Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio in Adult Patients with Sepsis Who Underwent Hemoperfusion in General Intensive Care Unit
    (Cordus, 2022) Koc, Suna; Ozer, Turkan; Dokur, Mehmet; Kucukcerit, Taner Serif; Karaoguz, Burcu; Celep, Yunus Emre; Aktepe, Emre
    Objective: Sepsis is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in the intensive care units. The goal of this study is to investigate whether changes in the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio are a prognostic marker for patients with sepsis (according to sepsis stages, and patient's and disease's characteristics) who have been followed up in the intensive care unit and who have received HA330 resin-directed hemadsorption column for sepsis. Methods: The study included a group of 100 (male [healed: 19, exitus: 42], female [cured: 29, exitus: 10]) sepsis patients who were followed up in the intensive care unit between December 2019 and December 2021 and who received HA-330 sepsis adsorption column. Results: Although a strong positive correlation was found between the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and the baseline platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio values (r = 0.725 and P = .001), a weak positive correlation was found between the baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and the comorbidity values (r = 0.253 and P = .001). In addition, the period found for hemoperfusion in those who healed was statistically significantly higher in exitus patients (P = .001). It was noted that the improvement in repeated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio measurements in the healing and death observations was identical (P > .05). The repeated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio measurement values were found to be statistically significantly different for those with healing (P = .014). In addition, repeated neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio measurement values were found to be statistically significantly different from those with exitus (P = .001). It was observed that the change of repeated platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio measurements in the observations with healing and death was statistically significant (P < .05). Conclusion: It is thought that it may be a cheap and useful biomarker in the prognosis of patients who are followed up in the intensive care unit and are treated with HA-330 sepsis adsorption column since the rate of neutrophils and lymphocytes in patients with hematological healing and death differs greatly.
