Objective: the objective of this study is to examine the relationships between sleep, quality of life and anxiety in patients undergoing cardiac surgeries during the preoperative period, at discharge, two weeks after discharge and three months after discharge. Method: this study had a prospective, descriptive and correlational design and was conducted in a single center. The sample consisted of 68 patients who had undergone cardiac surgeries. The data were collected using an Information Form, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, the Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire and the Nottingham Health Profile. Results: the patients' sleep quality increased from moderate to good at each measurement moment after the surgeries, when compared to sleep quality measured at their first hospitalization. While the state anxiety scores decreased at discharge and 2 weeks after the initial hospitalization, they increased to a moderate level 3 months after discharge. There was no significant relationship between anxiety levels and sleep quality at any measurement moment. Additionally, the patients' quality of life was significantly improved 2 weeks and 3 months after discharge. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the sleep quality of patients who had undergone cardiac surgeries was improved during the postoperative period, and that this improvement exerted a positive effect on their quality of life.
Objetivo: el objetivo de este estudio es examinar las relaciones entre el sueño, la calidad de vida y la ansiedad en pacientes sometidos a cirugías cardíacas durante el período preoperatorio, al momento del alta hospitalaria, y dos semanas y tres meses después del alta. Método: este estudio tuvo un diseño prospectivo, descriptivo y correlacional y se realizó en un único centro. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 68 pacientes que habían sido sometidos a cirugías cardíacas. Los datos se recolectaron por medio de un Formulario de Información y a través de los siguientes instrumentos: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory , Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire y Nottingham Health Profile . Resultados: la calidad del sueño de los pacientes mejoró de moderada a buena en cada medición después de las cirugías, en comparación con la evaluada al momento de la primera internación. Si bien las puntuaciones de ansiedad rasgo disminuyeron al momento del alta hospitalaria y 2 semanas después de la internación inicial, aumentaron al nivel moderado 3 meses después del alta. No se registró ninguna relación significativa entre niveles de ansiedad y calidad del sueño en ninguna de las mediciones. Además, la calidad de vida de los pacientes mejoró significativamente 2 semanas y 3 meses después del alta hospitalaria. Conclusión: los resultados de este estudio demostraron que la calidad de sueño de los pacientes sometidos a cirugías cardíacas mejoró durante el período postoperatorio, además de que esta mejora ejerció un efecto positivo sobre su calidad de vida.
Objetivo: o objetivo deste estudo é examinar as relações entre sono, qualidade de vida e ansiedade em pacientes sujeitos a cirurgias cardíacas durante o período pré-operatório, na alta, duas semanas após a alta e três meses após a alta. Método: este estudo teve um projeto prospectivo, descritivo e correlacional e foi realizado em um único centro. A amostra foi composta por 68 pacientes sujeitos a cirurgias cardíacas. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um Formulário de Informações, do State-Trait Anxiety Inventory , do Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire e do Nottingham Health Profile . Resultados: a qualidade de sono dos pacientes aumentou de moderada para boa em cada momento de medição após as cirurgias, quando comparada à qualidade de sono medida em sua primeira internação. Embora a pontuação de ansiedade-estado tenha diminuído na alta e duas semanas após a internação inicial, ela aumentou para um nível moderado três meses após a alta. Não houve relação significativa entre os níveis de ansiedade e a qualidade do sono em nenhum momento de medição. Além disso, a qualidade de vida dos pacientes melhorou significativamente duas semanas e três meses após a alta. Conclusão: os resultados desse estudo mostraram que a qualidade de sono dos pacientes sujeitos a cirurgias cardíacas melhorou durante o período pós-operatório, e que essa melhora exerceu um efeito positivo em sua qualidade de vida.

ABSTRACT Background: Exocytosis-related gene variants have been suggested to be associated with externalizing behaviors. Objective: This study aimed to examine VAMP2 26 bp Ins/Del, synaptotagmin XI (Syt11) rs3820594 and 33-bp promoter, Syntaxin 1A (Syn-1A) rs1569061 and SNAP-25 rs1051312 and rs3746544 polymorphisms, their serum levels and their relationship with impulsivity, temperament in individuals with alcohol dependence (AD) and healthy controls (HC). Methods: The study included 107 individuals with AD and 104 HCs. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were studied with polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method and serum levels with ELISA. Michigan Alcohol Screening Test (MAST), Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11 (BIS-11) and Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Pisa, Paris and San Diego Autoquestionnaire (TEMPS-A) were applied. Results: Syn-1A rs1569061 C allele polymorphism was significantly higher in AD group. Syn-1A rs1569061 C allele was associated with 1.5 times increased risk of AD. All serum levels were significantly higher in the HC group. There was a relationship between Syn-1A rs1569061 polymorphism and BIS-11 motor impulsiveness in the AD group; Syt11 rs3820594 polymorphism and BIS-11 total, TEMPS-A depressive, hyperthymia in the HC group. Discussion: In our study, gene variants and serum levels of synaptic vesicle and presynaptic plasma membrane proteins were related to AD, impulsivity and temperament.

Abstract BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is a systemic inflammatory disorder that involves complex pathogenic interactions between the innate and adaptive immune systems. The most accepted mechanism in the etiopathogenesis of psoriasis is the induction of inflammation with keratinocyte hyperproliferation. Granulysin (GNLY) is a cytolytic antimicrobial peptide (AMP) that is secreted together with granzyme and perforin from the granules of human cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer (NK) cells. It has been immunohistochemically proven that the expression of granulysin is increased in lesions of psoriasis. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between psoriasis disease and granulysin gene polymorphisms. METHODS: GNLY rs7908 and rs10180391 polymorphisms were studied by PCR-RFLP in 100 psoriasis patients under treatment in the Dermatology Polyclinic of Bulent Ecevit University. In addition, 100 healthy individuals with similar age and sex distribution were used as a control group. RESULTS: In the control group, GNLY rs7908 CC genotype was significantly higher than in psoriasis patients (P= 0.031; OR= 0.305; Cl= 0.305 (0.121 - 0.773). In our study, the genotype distributions in patients and control groups were GNLY rs7908 (SNP) GG (51%, 37%), GC (41%, 44%), CC (8%, 19%); GNLY rs10180391 (SNP) from the CC (41%, 44%), CT (42%, % 41), TT (17%, 15%). STUDY LIMITATIONS: The study only included Turkish patients. CONCLUSION: Our findings showed that GNLY rs7908 CC genotype and C allele had a protective effect against psoriasis and decreased the disease severity (according to PASI score), whereas rs10180391 SNP did not show any effective role in psoriasis pathogenesis.
