Twenty-Year Course of Antifungal Resistance in in Türkiye: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

This study aimed to systematically evaluate the resistance rates of to various antifungals based on studies conducted in Türkiye and published between 2005 and 2025 and to analyze the factors contributing to resistance. A systematic literature search was conducted using various keywords in electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, EBSCO, Scopus, Turk Medline and Google Scholar). A total of 42 studies were included in the meta-analysis according to the determined criteria.

Prevalence of Colistin-Resistant Isolates in Turkey over a 20-Year Period: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

is one of the leading causes of healthcare-associated infections and poses challenges in its treatment owing to its high antibiotic resistance. The development of resistance to colistin, which is used as a last resort, has become a major public health problem worldwide. This study was planned according to the PRISMA guidelines and included studies reporting the prevalence of colistin-resistant in Turkey between 2004 and 2024 through a systematic literature review.

Seroprevalence of TORCH Viral Agents in Pregnant Women in Turkey: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Rubella Virus, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex Virus-2 (HSV-2), Hepatitis B (HBV) and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) can cause serious fetal disease. The seropositivity rates of these agents vary among countries and geographic regions. This study aimed to analyze the prevalence rates and diagnostic methods used in studies investigating the seroprevalence of viral pathogens in the TORCH group among pregnant women in Turkey between 2005 and 2024.

A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Molecular Characteristics on Colistin Resistance of .

Background: This study aimed to determine the molecular epidemiology of colistin-resistant in the last ten years and the frequency of gene regions related to pathogenesis, to compare the methods used to detect genes, and to confirm colistin resistance.

Methods: This meta-analysis study was conducted under Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Guidelines. In the meta-analysis, research articles published in English and Turkish in electronic databases between January 2012 and November 2023 were examined.

Latest status of non-tuberculous mycobacteria prevalence in Türkiye and the world: Systematic review.

Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) can cause diseases not only in individuals with compromised immune systems but also in those with normal immune function. This study aimed to compare the prevalence of NTM in Türkiye and worldwide between 2012 and 2022. This study was designed following the guidelines outlined in the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) procedure.

Molecular epidemiology of carbapenem-resistant isolates in Turkiye: Systematic review.

The World Health Organization has designated carbapenem-resistant (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.

Antimicrobial resistance of Enterococcus isolates in Turkey: A meta-analysis of current studies.

Objectives: In this study, a meta-analysis of Enterococcus isolates collected in 2000-2015 in Turkey and their susceptibility/resistance to antibiotics, clinical indications for initial drug treatment, and identification of alternative treatments was conducted.

Methods: The meta-analysis examined antibiotic susceptibility/resistance in Enterococcus spp. isolates.
