    Seroprevalence of <i>coxiella Burnetii</I> in Human and Animal Populations in Tiirkiye: Meta-Analysis
    (Kafkas Univ, veteriner Fakultesi dergisi, 2023) Kilbas, Imdat; Kahraman Kilbas, Elmas Pinar; Ciftci, Ihsan Hakki
    This study aims to reveal Coxiella burnetii by examining the studies reporting Q fever seroprevalence in humans and animals in the last 25 years in Turkiye. In this study, based on PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses), various databases were searched between January 1997 and October. 2022. A literature review was carried out using data analyses performed using the IBM SPSS Version 25.0 statistical package program and Comprehensive Meta-Analysis (CMA) program. Overall prevalence of C. burnetii in humans was 22.78% (95% CI: 16.43%-29.12%), overall prevalence in animals was 13.49% (95% CI: 10.04-16.93%) was detected. The mean prevalence of C. burnetii in sheep was 19.1%+/- 10.88, 10.46 +/- 6.39% in cattle, 15.21 +/- 10.01% in studies including cattle and sheep together, 11.17 +/- 10.74 in cattle, sheep and goats, and 12.4%+/- 1.15% in sheep and goats. As a result of this study, it was determined that the prevalence of Q fever in humans in Turkiye is high in those dealing with animals, women who had a miscarriage, and infertile individuals. Although it is known that this disease is seen in Turkiye, there are not enough case reports in the literature. Detailed studies on Q fever in humans and animals need to be conducted. Further studies are needed to evaluate Q fever risk factors and prevalence data together within the scope of One Health approach.

    Molecular Epidemiology of Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter Baumannii Isolates in Turkiye: Systematic Review
    (Kare Publ, 2023) Kilbas, Elmas Pinar Kahraman; Kilbas, Imdat; Ciftci, Ihsan Hakki; Kahraman Kilbas, Elmas Pinar
    The World Health Organization has designated carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) as a "critical" pathogen on the global priority list of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This study aims to discuss the molecular epidemiology of CRAB isolates in Turkiye in the last 12 years and the prevalence of gene regions associated with resistance or pathogenesis using a systematic review method. Our study consists of a literature search, determination of eligibility and exclusion criteria, qualitative analysis of studies, data extraction, and statistical analysis. All studies were analyzed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Guidelines. The incidence rates of blaOXA-23, blaOXA-23-like, blaOXA-24/40, blaOXA-24/40-like, blaOXA-51, blaOXA-51-like, blaOXA-58, and blaOXA-58-like genes in CRAB strains were 76.4%, 68.6%, 1.2%, 3.4%, 97.0%, 98.6%, 8.4%, and 17.1%, respectively. It was determined that the prevalence of the blaOXA-23 and blaOXA-58 gene regions showed a statistically significant change over the years. Due to the high prevalence of A. baumannii strains carrying the blaOXA-23 variant, it is necessary to follow its geographical distribution and transposon and plasmid movements. Based on available data, molecular surveillance of CRAB strains should be standardized. In addition, sterilization and disinfection processes applied within the scope of an effective struggle against CRAB strains that can remain live on surfaces for a long time should be reviewed frequently.
