    Expression Profile of Prostaglandin Enzymes in Cystic Endometrial Hyperplasia in Dogs: the Results of a Hypothesis in Clinical Trial
    (Kafkas Üniversitesi, 2023) Korlu, Yeşim; Yavaş, Özkan; Aktar, Ahmet; Bozkurt, Berkay; Özyiğit, Musa Özgür; Özalp, Gözde Rabia
    The expressions of prostaglandin synthesis enzymes and estrogen, progesterone receptors in canine cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) were reported in this manuscript. Uterine tissue samples were collected from bitches with CEH (n=5), CEH-P (Cystic endometrial hyperplasia-Pyometra) (n=5) and healthy-negative control group, CG (n=5). Immunohistochemistry was carried out for the estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) detection. Shock-frozen samples were utilized in mRNA extraction and Real-Time PCR was performed. Gene expression of PTGS2/COX2, PTGES, PTGER4, PGFS, PTGFR and PGR were detected higher in the CEH group compared with CG. The PGFS and PTGFR (FP) mRNA expressions were significantly increased in CEH compared with other groups. Expression of progesterone receptor mRNA (PGR) was highest in CEH and statistically different from the CEH-P group (P<0.05). No PR immunostaining was observed. ER staining had been detected in endometrial glands, endometrial stoma and myometrium, however hyperplasic glands in propria mucosa had lower or no ER scores. Based on the results of this study, the high levels of prostaglandin enzymes and low ER scores in CEH could be a preliminary step for the next stages of severe differentiation of endometrium.

    Performance Evaluation of Webrtc-Based Online Consultation Platform
    (Türkiye Klinikleri Journal of Medical Sciences, 2019) Tarım, Ergün Alperay; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur
    Information technologies give patients the opportunity to communicate with medical professionals remotely. Telemedicine uses these technologies to provide advanced healthcare and medical services. We present a medical online consultation application based on Web Real-Time Communications (WebRTC) technology enabling chat, audio, and video calls. Communication architecture and protocols of the application are explained in detail. Additionally, the user interface of the application is shown via performed calls. The application is tested and evaluated on different network connections (3G, 4G, local, and DSL) and different browsers and mobile operating systems (Android, Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, iOS, Opera, Safari). During calls, communication quality parameters such as round-trip time (RTT) and packet loss, obtained via the WebRTC application programming interface, are analyzed. 3G, 4G, and local connections show low packet losses (<1%). Packet losses are high (>1%) in Android, Chrome, iOS, Opera, and Safari for DSL connection, but RTT values are low (<100 ms) in all different conditions excluding iOS. In the presented application, RTT and packet loss remain lower than 100 ms and 1%, respectively, in various scenarios, indicating good communication quality. RTT and packet loss are related to total time and hang time parameters, which describe the necessary time to establish and to end a call. It is shown that communication quality of the application can simply be measured by analyzing the total time parameter. This enables predictable information for communication quality for WebRTC-based applications without continuously monitoring RTT and packet loss for the first time.
