(Yuzuncu Yil Universitesi Tip Fakultesi, 2023) Kaya, N.; Aydın, M.A.; Kiziltan, R.
In this study, we aimed to contribute to the literature on the prevalence of gynecomastia and its relationship with age in Turkey by examining patients who underwent chest CT scans ordered for various reasons in male patients in our hospital. A total of 1589 male patients were included in our study. If a patient underwent multiple chest CT scans, only the first examination was used for the analysis. Patients’ age, presence of gynecomastia (GM) and laterality were recorded. Furthermore, the patients were divided into age decades. The correlations between GM, laterality and age decades were investigated. In CT examinations, GM was detected incidentally in 439 (27.6%) of the patients. Of all GMs, 234 (53.3%) were bilateral, 117 (26.6%) were left unilateral and 88 (20.0%) were right unilateral. GM peaked in the age range of 60-70 years and 70-80 years. A significant positive correlation was found between bilateral GM and age, (r=0.115, p<0.001). In our study, the prevalence of GM was found as 27.6%. Bilateral GMs were more common by 53.3%, while left unilateral GMs were more frequent. The prevalence of GM peaked to times in the age ranges o f 60-70 years and 4 70-80 years. There was a statistically significant correlation between bilateral GM and age. © 2023, Yuzuncu Yil Universitesi Tip Fakultesi. All rights reserved.
A Study on Abu Mullet {liza Abu Heckel, 1843) (Diyarbakir), Turkey
(Medwell Journals, 2014) Elp, M.; Kaya, N.
In this study, population structure, growth and reproduction properties of Liza abu which lives in Devegecidi Dam Lake and its inlets were observed between November 2008 and January 2010 and totally 1005 individuals sampled. Maximum age, fork length and weight were determined as IV, 21.8 cm, 122 g, respectively. Sex ratio (male:female) was calculated as 1:0.94. Condition factor was found as 1.261 ±0.003. No any mature sample could be caught from the dam lake tributaries between April and July. At the same period abundantly mature samples could be caught from the dam lake. This situation has led to the opinion that reproduction go on in the dam lake. Fecundity was found 26393±1375 eggs per female and 538±21 eggs per gram gonad weight. The eggs diameters were calculated as 0.6±0.02 mm. © Medwell Journals, 2014.
