Purpose: To report the effect of long-term therapy with the alkylating agent cyclophosphamide in a case with serpiginous choroiditis and thus to contribute to the previously reported few cases showing the beneficial effect of long-term cyclophosphamide therapy for serpiginous choroiditis. Procedures: Oral cyclophosphamide therapy for 12 months in a case with unilateral active serpiginous choroiditis. Results: The active lesion responded well to long-term therapy with cyclophosphamide without recurrences and significant systemic side-effects. Conclusions: Long-term therapy with cyclophosphamide for serpiginous choroiditis is effective for improving vision and preventing recurrences.

Square prism micropillars on poly(methyl methacrylate) surfaces modulate the morphology and differentiation of human dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells
Hasturk, Onur; Ermiş Şen, Menekşe; Demirci, Utkan; Hasırcı, Nesrin; Hasırcı, Vasıf Nejat (2019-06-01)
Use of soluble factors is the most common strategy to induce osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in vitro, but it may raise potential side effects in vivo. The topographies of the substrate surfaces affect cell behavior, and this could be a promising approach to guide stem cell differentiation. Micropillars have been reported to modulate cellular and subcellular shape, and it is particularly interesting to investigate whether these changes in cell morphology can modulate gene express...
Time-Limited Counseling Outcome in Nationwide College Counseling Center Sample
Drapper, Matt; Jennings, J.; Baron, A.; Erdur Baker, Özgür (2002-07-01)
This study examined the dose‐effect relationship between the number of sessions and therapeutic outcome in a large, nationwide counseling center research consortium. A positive relationship was found between the outcome of counseling and the number of sessions attended. The results of this study support the effectiveness of brief psychotherapy.
Selective monitoring and treatment of neuroblastoma cells with hydrogen sulfide activatable phototheranostic agent
Dirak, Musa; Kepil, Dilay; Almammadov, Toghrul; Elmazoglu, Zubeyir; Cetin, Sultan; Ozogul, Naz; Günbaş, Emrullah Görkem; Kolemen, Safacan (2023-02-01)
Activity-based photosensitizers (aPSs) are highly attractive as they offer improved selectivity and better therapeutic outcome in the scope of photodynamic therapy (PDT). Here, a hydrogen sulfide (H2S) responsive iodinated resorufin-based PS (RHS) was developed to treat neuroblastoma cancer cells selectively. RHS was shown to be a phototheranostic agent as it turned on its fluorescence signal and singlet oxygen (1O2) generation capability after reacting with H2S. RHS exhibited remarkable sensitivity towards...
Distinct oscillatory STN-cortical loops revealed by simultaneous MEG and local field potential recordings in patients with Parkinson's disease
Hirschmann, J.; Özkurt, Tolga Esat; Butz, M.; Homburger, M.; Elben, S.; Hartmann, C. J.; Vesper, J.; Wojtecki, L.; Schnitzler, A. (2011-04-01)
Neuronal oscillations are assumed to play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). Neurons in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) generate oscillations which are coupled to rhythmic population activity both in other basal ganglia nuclei and cortical areas.
MEDICALIZATION OF ACADEMIC TROUBLES: THE CASE OF PSYCHOSTIMULANT MEDICATION USE AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
Ertubay, Mert; Mücen, Barış; Department of Sociology (2022-9)
Psychostimulant medications which are normally used in the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder have been receiving increased academic attention. The existing literature has been focused on explaining the growing psychostimulant use as a function of increasing ADHD diagnoses from the lens of medicalization; as well as exploring the illicit usage of these medications for purposes of performance enhancement, from a health and ethics perspective. Both these approaches fail to represent the com...
