    (Cukurova Univ, Fac Medicine, 2025) Ulubaba, Hilal Er; Ciftci, Rukiye; Senol, Deniz; Toy, Seyma; Berk, Erhan; Uzun, Muhammet Bora
    Purpose: Somatotype is a quantitative expression of an individual's current morphological configuration and consists of three classifications: mesomorphy, endomorphy and ectomorphy. This study aimed to examine the relationship between somatotype and liver, spleen, and kidney morphometry in healthy children utilizing ultrasonographic (USG) methods. Materials and Methods: One hundred healthy children between the ages of 7 and 10 participated in the study. The sizes of liver, spleen and kidney were measured using USG. The children's somatotypes were determined according to the Heath-Carter method by taking 10 anthropometric measurements. Results: As a result of the measurements, it was determined that the highest value of liver length was 11.9 cm (9.9-13.6) in Mesomorph Endomorph somatotype and the smallest value was 10.9 (9-12.3) in central somatotype. The highest value of right kidney vertical length was 32 mm (25-45) in Mesomorph Endomorph somatotype and the lowest value was 29 mm (25-34) in central somatotype. According to the results of the Kruskall Wallis H test analysis, there was a statistically significant difference between liver length and right kidney vertical length measurements and somatotypes (p<0.05). Post-hoc analysis indicated that this difference was due to the central and mesomorph-endomorph somatotypes. Conclusion: In conclusion, we believe that our results should be taken into consideration for clinical diagnoses. Additionally, we suggest that taking our measurement results into consideration in abdominal ultrasound scans is necessary for an accurate evaluation. We think that clinicians evaluating the pathologies of diseases related to the organs we measured should not forget the size changes according to the somatotype results.

    Comparison of the Effects of the Somatotype on the Physical Activity, Kinesiophobia, and Fatigue Levels of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Patients and Healthy Individuals
    (Iranian Scientific Society Medical Entomology, 2021) Toy, Seyma; Ciftci, Rukiye; Senol, Deniz; Kizilay, Fatma; Ermis, Hilal
    Background: We aimed to compare the physical activity, kinesiophobia, and fatigue levels of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) patients and healthy individuals in terms their somatotypes. Methods: A total of 165 individuals were enrolled referred to the Department of Chest Diseases Sleep Disorders Center Outpatient Clinic of Inonu University, Malatya, Turkey in 2018. The somatotype analysis was conducted using the Heath- Carter method, the fatigue level was assessed using the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) fatigue scale, the kinesiophobia level was assessed using the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), and the physical activity level was assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Results: The results of the somatotype analysis revealed 3 different somatotypes in the healthy individuals and the OSAS patients' mesomorph endomorph, endomorphic mesomorph, and mesomorphic endomorph. When comparing the somatotypes of the healthy individuals and the OSAS patients, statistically significant differences were found in the FACIT scores of the mesomorph endomorphs, the IPAQ and FACIT scores of the endomorphic mesomorphs, and the TSK and FACIT scores of the mesomorphic endomorphs (P<0.05). Conclusion: In all three somatotypes of the OSAS patients, the fatigue index scores were higher when compared to those of the healthy individuals. Moreover, when compared with the healthy individuals, the physical activity levels of the endomorphic mesomorphs with OSAS were low, while the kinesiophobia scores of the mesomorphic endomorphs with OSAS were high. Based on the results of this study, in OSAS patients, the endomorphic mesomorph somatotype could be a risk factor for reduced physical activity, while the mesomorphic endomorph somatotype could be a risk factor for increased kinesiophobia.

    Evaluation of Willis Polygon Morphometry with Cranial Tomographic Angiography
    (Turkish Neurosurgical Soc, 2023) Ciftci, Rukiye; Cetin, Aymelek; Ulubaba, Hilal Er; Senol, Deniz; Cinarli, Fahri Safa; Ozbag, Davut
    AIM: To examine the morphometric properties of the vessels forming the Willis polygon (WP) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension (HT) and compare them with healthy individuals.MATERIAL and METHODS: Cranial Tomography Angiography (CTA) of 168 individuals were analyzed retrospectively. The individuals included in the study were divided into four groups according to the diagnosis. Group 1 included 40 individuals who were diagnosed with HT, Group 2 included 43 individuals who were diagnosed with DM, Group 3 included 42 individuals who were diagnosed with DM and HT, and Group 4 was the control group and included 43 individuals. The diameter and length measurements of the vesselsRESULTS: According to the results of the Kruskal Wallis H test, in female patients statistically significant differences were detected in the diameter measurements of the right and left A1 segment of the ACA, the diameter measurement of the left A2 segment, the diameter measurements of the right and left P1 and P2 segments of the ACP, the diameter measurements of the right and left AComP. (p<0.05), in male patients statistically significant differences were found in the diameter of the right A1 segment of the ACA, the diameter and segment length measurements of the right and left P1 segments of the ACP, of the right and left P2 diameter measurements, and segment length measurements of the left AComP (p<0.05).CONCLUSION: We also found that the vessel diameters were similar in the HT, DM and HT+DM groups, and smaller than the control group. In addition, we think that knowing WP morphometric measurements will both guide the radio-anatomical evaluations to be made and increase the level of microanatomical knowledge in surgical treatment.

    Morphometric examination of the hepatobiliary duct system in healthy individuals and patients with cholelithiasis: A radio-anatomic magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography study
    (Cukurova Univ, Fac Medicine, 2023) Toy, Seyma; Senol, Deniz; Ciftci, Rukiye; Sevgi, Serkan; Secgin, Yusuf; Yildirim, Ismail Okan
    Purpose: Cholelithiasis is a common gallbladder disease with high morbidity and treatment cost. Although the disease has many formation factors such as bile duct obstruction, congenital anomalies, genetic and metabolic diseases, the main cause is gallstones. The aim of this study is to examine the radio-anatomic and demographic characteristics of the bile ducts of patients who have cholelithiasis due to gallstones by using magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and to compare with healthy individuals.Materials and Methods: The study was carried out by retrospectively scanning the MRCP images of 113 patients diagnosed with cholelithiasis and 87 healthy individuals who were referred to the hospital for various indications and had no gallbladder pathology. Results: According to the Spearman rho correlation test performed by ignoring gender, a significant correlation was found between right hepatic duct diameter (RHD-D) and right hepatic duct - cystic duct angle (RHDCD-A), and between left hepatic duct diameter (LHD-D) and common bile duct diameter (CBD-D). In the correlation analysis performed only among males, a significant correlation was found between RHDCD-A and right hepatic duct - left hepatic duct angle (RLHD-A), RHDCD-A and common hepatic duct diameter (CHD-D) parameters. In the correlation analysis performed only among women, a significant relationship was found between age and RHD-D, LHD-D, CHD-D, CBD-D, between RHDCD-A and cystic duct - gallbladder angle (CDG-A), RHD-D, and between CHD-D and cystic duct diameter (CD-D).Conclusion: This study will contribute to literature by revealing the morphometric characteristics and radio -anatomic information of the hepatobiliary systems of both patients with cholelithiasis and healthy individuals.
