Phenotypic expression of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) mutation P250R in a large craniosynostosis family.
1997
The craniosynostosis syndromes are a heterogeneous group of sporadic, autosomal dominant disorders with significant clinical overlap. Recently, we described a large family with autosomal dominant craniosynostosis suggestive of Saethre-Chotzen syndrome, in which linkage to the Saethre-Chotzen syndrome loci on 7p had been excluded. We now report the presence of a mutation in the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) in this family. The mutation, P250R, had been previously reported in 10 patients with non-syndromic craniosynostosis. Variable expression of this mutation is evident especially in two additional members of this family, one of whom is severely affected with pancraniosynostosi…
Molecular, Genetic and Epidemiologic Studies on Selective Complete C1q Deficiency in Turkey
2000
Selective complete C1q deficiencies (SCDC1q) of the complement component C1q are rare genetic disorders with high prevalence of lupus-erythematosus-like symptoms and recurrent infections. Among the 41 published cases from 23 families, 10 derive from 6 Turkish families. One particular mutation leading to a stop codon in the C1q A gene was first identified in members of a Gypsy family from the Slovac Republic. Later the same mutation has been found in all cases in four SCDC1q families from Turkey suggesting that one particular defective allele may be present in the populations of Southeastern Europe and Turkey. This study was undertaken to investigate the frequency of C-->T mutation in exon I…

Investigation of tooth transposition in a non-syndromic Turkish anatolian population : characteristic features and associated dental anomalies
2009
Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate the frequency and characteristics of dental transpositions and to evaluate associated dental anomalies in a large sample of Turkish Anatolian population. Study design: A retrospective study was performed using panoramic radiographs of 6983 patients (4092 females and 2891 males) ranging in age from 12 to 27 subjected to Faculty of Dentistry at the University of Ataturk (Erzurum, Turkey) between 2005 and 2008. For each patient with tooth transposition we recorded the demographic variables (including age, sex), history of trauma, type, classification, and location of tooth transpositions, and associated dental anomalies. The Pearson chi-squ…
Retrospective analysis of impacted first and second permanent molars in the turkish population : a multicenter study
2010
WOS: 000298087100003 PubMed: 21196844 Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to retrospectively analyze 170 case series of patients with 200 impacted first and second permanent molars. Study Design: Records of 104.408 patients were retrospectively screened in this multicenter study. The chosen study population consists of 170 patients who presented with impacted or retained first and second permanent molar. All patients with impacted first or second permanent molar had undergone clinical and radiographic examinations. The following factors were analyzed: age and gender, frequency, distribution, location, position, the number of impacted tooth, primary and secondary retention, degr…
Prevalence of impacted premolars in a Turkish population and considerations for surgical treatment
2010
Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the prevalence, associated pathology and symptoms, and treatment of impacted premolars in a Turkish population. Study Design: This retrospective study examined panoramic radiographs and clinical records of 9,000 patients who presented consecutively at our oral and maxillofacial surgery clinics between January 1998 and January 2009. In addition to demographic data (patient sex and age), data was compiled on the number and location of impacted missing maxillary and mandibular premolars, retained deciduous molars, associated pathologies and symptoms, and treatment methods. Results: A total of 105 impacted maxillary or mandibular premolars were o…
The prevalence of root dilacerations in a Turkish population
2009
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of root dilaceration in a Turkish dental patient population with respect to sexes and dental localization in relation between sex and this anomaly. Study Design: A retrospective study was performed using periapical radiography of 2,124 patients ranging in age from 15 to 65. All data (age, sex and systemic disease or syndrome) was obtained from the files. These patients were analyzed for root dilaceration. Descriptive characteristics of sexes, jaws, and dental localization were recorded. The Pearson chi-squared test was used. Results: Of 2,251 patients, 214 (9.5%) had root dilaceration. Root dilacerations were determined in 27…

The Frequency of taurodontism in the Turkish population
2011
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and degree of taurodontism in a group of Turkish adult dental patients. Study design: A retrospective study was performed using panoramic radiography of 490 patients ranging in age from 18 to 65. These patients were analyzed for taurodontism. Descriptive characteristics of sex, jaws, and localization were recorded. The data was analyzed using the Pearson chi-square test. Results: Taurodontism was detected in 22.8% of patients and 4.2% of the teeth examined. Anomalies were found in 22.2% of females compared with 23.8% of males. However, no significant difference was found between the genders (p > 0.05). Taurodontism was more dist…
Ingegneri militari nella Sicilia degli Asburgo: formazione, competenze e carriera di una figura professionale tra Cinque e Seicento
2015
During the Sixteenth century and the first half of the following one, Sicily played a key role in the strategy of defense of the Spanish Empire from the looming Turkish threat, being an island considered as a baluarte against the Turks. Yet despite this absolute centrality in the military policy of the Spanish monarchy, till now historical research has preferred to provide broader spectrum interpretations at the expense of in-depth studies on individual technicians or overall pictures about the figure of the military engineer. We will present a synoptic view attesting the time period of activity covered by each military technician working for the kingdom of Sicily, within a wider study conc…
