Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the occurrence rate of druginduced gingival overgrowth (DIGO) in patients treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), and calcium channel blockers (CCBs) such as amlodipine, lercanidipine, and benidipine, as well as to assess the relationship of those mentioned above with medication variables and oral hygiene.Methods: Sociodemographic details, DIGO, and clinical periodontal parameters were obtained from one hundred and thirty-one patients receiving ACE inhibitors, ARBs, and CCBs for a period of at least 2 years. Results:The occurrence rate of DIGO was 19.6% in patients using CCB, 12.5% in the ARB group, and 7.5% in the ACE inhibitor group. In a subgroup analysis of CCBs, DIGO was found to be 31.8% in the amlodipine group, 13.3% in the lercanidipine group, and 7.1% in the benidipine group. While there was a significant relationship between amlodipine drug dosage and DIGO, no association was found between the duration of therapy and DIGO in all CCB subgroups. Conclusion:There was no difference between the groups in terms of DIGO. Duration of therapy and drug dosage did not affect the severity of DIGO in both ACE inhibitors and ARB groups.
OBJECTIVE: This study aims to evaluate the relationship between periodontal health status and coronary slow flow phenomenon. METHODS: One hundred and two patients who underwent coronary angiography with the diagnosis of stable angina pectoris were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups: patients with coronary slow flow (Test group) (n=51), and patients with normal coronary angiography (Control group) (n=51). Diagnosis of slow coronary flow was made according to Beltrame criteria by coronary angiography. Demographic characteristics of the participants were recorded. The periodontal health was assessed by clinical periodontal parameters such as probing depth, clinical attachment level, gingival index, plaque index, and bleeding on probing.RESULTS: There were no significant differences between groups as regards the frequencies of hypertension, smoking (p>0.05). As for the periodontal parameters of the study groups, probing depth, gingival index, plaque index, bleeding on probing, and clinical attachment level values were statistically higher in the test group compared to the control group (p<0.05).CONCLUSIONS: Periodontitis might be accepted as one of the underlying causes of coronary slow flow. Patients with coronary slow flow should be evaluated for an underlying periodontal disease, and treatment of periodontal disease can protect against future cardiovascular events.
Öz2008 küresel finansal krizi gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkeleri farklı boyutlarda etkilemiştir. Küresel krizin etkili olduğu dönemde, gelişmiş ülkelerin istikrarı yeniden tesis etme girişimleri aynı krizden etkilenen gelişmekte olan ülkeleri özellikle sermaye hareketlerinin belirsizliği bakımından daha da sıkıntıya sokmuştur. Birbirine entegre halde bulunan ülkeler, küresel krizle mücadele sırasında geleneksel para politikalarının yetersiz kaldığını tespit etmeleri üzerine geleneksel olmayan para politikaları araçlarını geliştirmek ve uygulamak durumunda kalmışlardır. Gelişen durumlar karşısında, ülkeler kendine özgü standart olmayan para politika araçları tasarlamak ve uygulamak zorunda kalmışlardır. Bu çalışma kapsamında, TCMB, Fed ve Avrupa Merkez Bankası tarafından geliştirilen ve uygulamaya sokulan geleneksel olmayan para politikaları incelenmiştir.Anahtar Kelimeler: 2008 Küresel Krizi, TCMB, Fed, AMB, Geleneksel Olmayan Para Politikaları. AbstractThe 2008 global financial crisis affected developed and developing countries in different dimensions. In the period when the global crisis was in effect, the attempts of the developed countries to restructure their stability have made the emerging countries affected by the same crisis more and more distressed, especially in terms of the uncertainty of their capital movements. Countries integrated to each other have had to develop and implement non-traditional monetary policy instruments when they find that traditional monetary policies are insufficient during the struggle against the global crisis. In the face of developments, countries have had to design and implement their own non-standard monetary policy instruments. In this study, non-traditional monetary policies developed and put into practice by TCMB, the Fed and the European Central Bank were examined.
ÖzMerkez bankaları günümüzde bir ülkedeki ekonomik ve finansal istikrarın sağlanmasında ve krizlerle mücadelede en önemli aktörlerden birisidir. Günümüz merkez bankaları para politikasını yönetmekte, para basma tekelini elinde tutmakta, bankacılık sistemini kontrol etmekte ve borç verecek son mercii olarak işlev görmektedirler. Ülkenin istikrarı üzerinde birçok olumsuz etkisi olan finansal kriz süreçlerinde merkez bankaları en kritik rolü üstlenmekte ve merkez bankalarının kriz karşısındaki politikalarının etkinliği önem kazanmaktadır. Bu çalışma merkez bankalarının 2008 küresel krizi karşısında uyguladıkları politikaların etkinliklerinin ortaya konulmasını hedeflemiştir. Çalışma kapsamında, TCMB, Fed ve Avrupa Merkez Bankasının performanslarını değerlendirmek amacıyla Veri Zarflama Analizi (VZA) yöntemi kullanılmıştır.Anahtar Kelimeler: 2008 Küresel Krizi, TCMB, Fed, AMB, VZA. AbstractToday, central banks are one of the most important actors in establishing economic and financial stability and in dealing with crisis in a country. Today's central banks manage monetary policy, keep a monopoly on printing money, control banking system and function as a lender of last resort. The central banks undertake the most critical role in financial crisis processes that have negative impacts on the stability of a country and the efficiencies of central banks' policies in the face of crisis gain importantance. In this study, it is aimed to present the efficiencies of the policies against 2008 global crisis exercised by central banks. Within the scope of this work, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to evaluate the performance of TCMB , the Fed and the European Central Bank (ECB).
