    Relationship Between Exercise Perception With Physical Activity Level, Body Awareness, and Illness Cognition in Renal Transplant Patients: A Pilot Study
    (2019) Tigli, Ayca; Soy, Ebru Hatice Ayvazoglu; Aytar, Aydan; Moray, Gokhan; Haberal, Mehmet; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0993-9917; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2498-7287; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-3462-7632; 30777573; AAC-5566-2019; HIR-3735-2022; AAE-1041-2021; AAJ-8097-2021
    Objectives: Transplantation offers better quality of life and long-term survival benefits. Further knowledge is needed regarding exercise in daily life of transplant recipients. Here, we investigated the relationship between exercise perception and physical activity level, body awareness, and illness cognition in renal transplant patients. Materials and Methods: Our study included 53 renal transplant recipients (Standardized Mini-Mental Test score = 26.35 +/- 1.36; age = 41.11 +/- 13.52 year, body mass index = 25.96 +/- 5.26 kg/m(2), elapsed time after transplant = 3.68 +/- 1.53 year). Perceived benefits and barriers to exercise, physical activity level, body awareness, and illness cognition were assessed with the Exercise Benefits/Barriers Scale, International Physical Activity Questionnaire, Body Awareness Questionnaire, and Patient Illness Perception Questionnaire, respectively. Correlations were established with Spearman test for nonparametric data, with regression analysis used to find determinants of physical activity levels. Results: We observed correlations between physical activity level and perceived benefits and barriers to exercise. There was a positive relationship between body awareness and perceived benefits and barriers to exercise and also illness cognition, with significant correlation between perceived benefits and barriers to exercise and illness cognition (P < .05). Perceived benefits and barriers to exercise (P = .006, R = 0.373, R2 = 0.139, beta = 0.373, t = 2.867, F = 8.22) were determining factors for physical activity level. Conclusions: Psychologic and physical factors, including negative emotions and body dissatisfaction, are risk factors for poor quality of life. Although it is important to increase quality of life, tools to enhance body awareness and to develop strategies to alter motor behaviors in daily living activities are needed. Treatment and assessment strategies on body awareness and illness perception should be considered, with emphasis on the importance of physical activity posttransplant.

    Early Postoperative Acute Kidney Injury Among Pediatric Liver Transplant Recipients
    (2021) Sahinturk, Helin; Ozdemirkan, Aycan; Zeyneloglu, Pinar; Gedik, Ender; Pirat, Arash; Haberal, Mehmet; 0000-0003-0159-4771; 0000-0001-5324-0348; 0000-0002-3462-7632; 30880650; AAJ-1419-2021; AAD-8682-2022; AAJ-8097-2021
    Objectives: Acute kidney injury after pediatric liver transplant is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Here, we evaluated children with acute kidney injury early posttransplant using KDIGO criteria to determine incidence, risk factors, and clinical outcomes. Materials and Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, medical records of all patients < 16 years old who underwent liver transplant from April 2007 to April 2017 were reviewed. Results: Of 117 study patients, 69 (59%) were male and median age at transplant was 72 months (range, 12-120 mo). Forty children (34.2%) had postoperative acute kidney injury, with most having stage 1 disease (n = 21). Compared with children who had acute kidney injury versus those who did not, preoperative activated partial thromboplastin time (median 35.6 s [interquartile range, 32.4-42.8 s] vs 42.5 s [interquartile range, 35-49 s]; P = .007), intraoperative lactate levels at end of surgery (median 5.3 mmol/L [interquartile range, 3.3-8.6 mmol/L] vs 7.9 mmol/L [interquartile range, 4.3-11.2 mmol/L]; P = .044), and need for open abdomen (3% vs 15%; P = .024) were significantly higher. Logistic regression analysis revealed that preoperative high activated partial thromboplastin time (P = .02), intraoperative lactate levels at end of surgery (P = .02), and need for open abdomen (P = .03) were independent risk factors for acute kidney injury. Children who developed acute kidney injury had significantly longer intensive care unit stay (7.1 +/- 8.5 vs 4.4 +/- 5.4 days, P = .04) and mortality (12.8% vs 1.8%; P = .01). Conclusions: Early postoperative acute kidney injury occurred in 34.2% of pediatric liver transplant recipients, with patients having increased mortality risk. High preoperative activated partial thromboplastin time, high intraoperative end of surgery lactate levels, and need for open abdomen were shown to be associated with acute kidney injury after pediatric liver transplant.
