Web of Science Evaluation of Patients with COVID-19 Followed Up in Intensive Care Units in the Second Year of the Pandemic: A Multicenter Point Prevalence Study(2024.01.01) Güngör, S.; Ediboglu, Ö.; Moçin, Ö.Y.; Adigüzel, N.; Tunçay, E.; Iscanli, I.G.E.; Er, B.; Karakurt, Z.; Turan, S.; Kosovali, B.D.; Mutlu, N.M.; Kayar, D.; Bektas, S.G.; Uysal, E.; Segmen, F.; Alp, G.; Erdem, D.; Selmi, N.H.; Güven, P.; Özçelik, Z.; Ocakcioglu, M.; Özgür, C.Y.; Yilmaz, R.; Özel, D.B.; Cebeci, H.; Güler, B.; Cansever, C.; Cakirca, M.; Inceöz, H.; Solmaz, I.; Sipahioglu, F.Ö.; Aydin, E.M.; Dayanir, H.; Öner, S.F.; Karatepe, U.; Özen, S.; Boran, M.; Ergül, D.F.; Kasapoglu, U.S.; Delen, L.A.; Toy, E.; Altun, K.; Albayrak, T.; Yanal, H.; Zaim, G.; Yarar, V.; Kilinç, G.; Deniz, M.; Özdemir, E.; Soylu, V.G.; Yilmaz, A.; Saygili, S.M.; Öztürk, E.K.; Ergan, B.; Eyüpoglu, S.; Sahin, Y.; Yüksel, B.; Bulut, A.; Saritas, A.; Yeniay, H.; Genç, M.; Kargin, F.; Özcan, O.; Karakoç, E.; Karaca, U.; Sözütek, D.; Sari, S.; Senoglu, N.; Aygün, H.; Yigit, A.C.; Kavruk, N.; Uzan, C.A.; Biçakcioglu, M.; Solak, S.; Özçelik, H.K.; Uluç, K.; Yildirim, I.; Arar, M.C.; Demirel, I.; Küver, S.U.; Özgür, E.S.; Aydin, K.; Dönmez, G.E.; Aygencel, G.; Esmaoglu, A.; Aydin, B.S.; Tokur, M.E.; Ekren, P.K.; Aydemir, Y.; Güney, B.Ç.; Erdil, Ö.Y.; Tünay, A.; Bahadir, T.; Uçkun, S.; Kocaoglu, N.; Pinar, H.U.; Karaca, N.K.; Gültekin, H.; Ayvat, P.; Özer, A.B.; Eroglu, A.; Kuyrukluyildiz, U.; Baytar, Ç.; Ayoglu, H.; Mizrakçi, S.; Metin, H.; Mutlu, O.P.Z.; Yilmaz, H.; Tüzüner, F.OBJECTIVE: A 1 -day point prevalence study was planned to obtain country data by determining the clinical characteristics, follow-up and treatment methods of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases that required intensive care unit (ICU) treatment in the second year of the pandemic. MATERIAL AND METHODS: All patients who were hospitalized in the ICUs due to COVID-19 between March 11, 2022, 08.00 AM, and March 12, 2022, 08.00 AM, were included in the study. Demographic characteristics, intensive care and laboratory data, radiological characteristics, and follow-up results of the patients were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 811 patients from 59 centers were included in the study, 59% of the cases were male, and the mean age was 74 +/- 14 years. At least one comorbid disease was present in 94% of the cases, and hypertension was the most common. When ICU weight scores were examined, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation -II: 19 (15-27) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment: 7 (4-10) were seen. Sepsis was present in 37% (n = 298) of cases. PaO2/FiO2 ratios of the patients were 190 the highest and 150 the lowest and 51% of the cases were followed via invasive mechanical ventilation. On the study day, 73% bilateral involvement was seen on chest x-ray, and ground -glass opacities (52%) were the most common on chest tomography. There was growth in culture in 40% (n = 318) of the cases, and the most common growth was in the tracheal aspirate (42%). CONCLUSION: The clinical course of COVID-19 is variable, and ICU follow-up was required due to advanced age, comorbidity, presence of respiratory symptoms, and widespread radiological involvement. The need for respiratory support and the presence of secondary infection are important issues to be considered in the follow-up. Despite the end of the second year of the pandemic and vaccination, the high severity of the disease as well as the need for follow-up in ICUs has shown that COVID-19 is an important health problem.Scopus Evaluation of Patients with COVID-19 Followed Up in Intensive Care Units in the Second Year of the Pandemic: A Multicenter Point Prevalence Study(AVES, 2024) Güngör, S.; Ediboğlu, Ö.; Moçin, Ö.Y.; Adıgüzel, N.; Tunçay, E.; İşcanlı, İ.G.E.; Er, B.; Karakurt, Z.; Turan, S.; Kosavalı, B.H.; Mutlu, N.M.; Kayar, D.; Bektaş, Ş.G.; Uysal, E.; Seğmen, F.; Gürayalp, A.; Erdem, D.; Selmi, N.H.; Güven, P.; Özçelik, Z.; Ocakcıoğlu, M.; Özgür, C.Y.; Yılmaz, R.; Özel, D.B.; Cebeci, H.; Güler, B.; Cansever, C.; Çakırca, M.; İnceöz, H.; Solmaz, İ.; Sipahioğlu, F.H.; Aydın, E.M.; Dayanır, H.; Öner, S.F.; Karatepe, U.; Özen, S.; Boran, M.; Ergül, D.F.; Kasapoğlu, U.S.; Delen, L.A.; Toy, E.; Altun, K.; Albayrak, T.; Yanal, H.; Zaim, G.; Yarar, V.; Kılınç, G.; Deniz, M.; Özdemir, E.; Soylu, V.G.; Yılmaz, A.; Saygılı, S.B.; Öztürk, E.K.; Ergan, B.; Eyüpoğlu, S.; Şahin, Y.; Yüksel, B.; Bulut, A.; Sarıtaş, A.; Yeniay, H.; Genç, M.; Kargın, F.; Özcan, O.; Karakoç, E.; Karaca, Ü.; Sözütek, D.; Sarı, S.; Şenoğlu, N.; Aygün, H.; Yiğit, A.C.; Kavruk, N.; Uzan, Ç.A.; Bıçakçıoğlu, M.; Solak, S.; Özçelik, H.K.; Uluç, K.; Yıldırım, İ.; Arar, M.C.; Demirel, İ.; Küver, S.U.; Özgür, E.S.; Aydın, K.; Dönmez, G.E.; Aygencel, G.; Esmaoğlu, A.; Aydın, B.S.; Tokur, M.E.; Ekren, P.K.; Aydemir, Y.; Güney, B.Ç.; Erdil, Ö.Y.; Tünay, A.; Bahadır, T.; Uçkun, S.; Kocaoğlu, N.; Pınar, H.U.; Karaca, N.K.; Gültekin, H.; Ayvat, P.; Özer, A.B.; Eroğlu, A.; Kuyrukluyıldız, U.; Baytar, Ç.; Ayoğlu, H.; Mızrakçı, S.; Metin, H.; Mutlu, Ö.P.Z.; Yılmaz, H.; Tüzüner, F.OBJECTIVE: A 1-day point prevalence study was planned to obtain country data by determining the clinical characteristics, follow-up and treatment methods of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases that required intensive care unit (ICU) treatment in the second year of the pandemic.

The mean activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K measured in the studied building material samples ranged from 2.1 to 88.2 Bq kg1 , 1.8 to 52.7 Bq kg1 and 68.1 to 847.5 Bq kg1 for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K radionuclide, respectively. The external and internal index, the indoor absorbed dose rate and the corresponding annual effective dose were evaluated for potential exposure risks from the usage of the building material samples. The evaluated values of the external and internal index were below the recommended upper level. All the values of effective annual dose determined were lower than recommended exemption level of 0.3 mSv. The results suggest that the use of the studied building material samples in the construction of buildings is unlikely to give rise to any significant radiation exposure to the residents.Item Evaluation of potential exposure risks of natural radioactivity levels emitted from building materials used in Adana, Turkey(Indoor and Built Environment 2014 23: 594 originally published online 29 May 2012, 2012) Turhan, Şeref; Solak, S.; Uğur, F.A.; Gören, E.; Gezer, F.; Yeğingil, Z.; Yeğingil, İ.In this paper, the natural radioactivity levels in a total of 117 samples of 14 different building materials collected from building construction sites and from the retailers in Adana were studied by means of gamma-ray spectrometer with HPGe detector.
