Article Abstract
Objectives: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important treatment for many benign and malignant diseases. Factors affecting the donor response to mobilization and thus hematopoietic progenitor cell yield have been investigated, but studies on donor body mass index are limited and contradictory. Our aim in our study was to investigate this situation.
Material And Methods: The data of a total of 665 healthy donors were analyzed and divided into 2 groups as body mass index (BMI) < 25 (group 1, n: 247) and ≥ 25 kg/m (group 2, n: 418). In addition to demographic data, smoking, blood group, agent used for mobilization, number of days of apheresis, volume of blood processed, amount of product collected, complete blood count before mobilization and biochemical parameters were evaluated.
Results: Group 1 consisted of 247 and group 2 consisted of 418 participants. Median age was 29 (18-66) years in group 1 and 37 (18-68) years in group 2. Median BMI was 22.49 (16.10-24.98) and 28.06 (25.00-48.27) kg/m², respectively. Male donors constituted 62.7 % in group 1 and 73.9 % in group 2. In group 2, the number of apheresis days was lower and the median CD34 stem cell count on the first day and in total was statistically significantly higher (7.1 ×10/kg and 7.58 ×10/kg, respectively).
Conclusion: In healthy donors, CD34 stem cells were correlated with BMI, whereas no statistically significant difference was found between the groups in terms of smoking habit, blood group, granulocyte stimulating agent type, processed blood volume, non-lymphocyte and biochemical parameters other than LDH.

Evaluation of nutritional status and swallowing functions of children with neuromuscular disordes.
Neuro Endocrinol Lett
September 2025
Department of Pediatric Neurology, Cukurova University Faculty of Medicine, Adana, Turkey.
Objective: It is important to raise awareness of the nutritional problems that can be overlooked during the follow-up visits with children who suffer from neuromuscular diseases, as these dietary differences may lead to additional neurological and systemic problems and impair the quality of life of the patient. The aim of this study was to evaluate the nutritional status of children with neuromuscular disorders and to prevent possible complications by recognizing possible nutritional problems in advance.
Methods: Patients who applied to the outpatient clinic at Cukurova University, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pediatric Neurology beginning in April 2022 with a neuromuscular disorder diagnosis were followed up with and were included in the study.
Anatomical Risk Factors for Portal Vein Complications Following Right Hepatectomy in Living Donors.
Ann Surg

Division of Hepatobiliary Surgery and Liver Transplantation, Department of Surgery, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Objective: To determine the incidence, clinical outcomes, and anatomical risk factors of portal vein (PV)-related complications after right lobe donor hepatectomy (RLDH).
Summary Background Data: With the increase in living donor liver transplantation, large-scale studies on donor morbidity have been conducted to ensure donor safety. However, reports evaluating PV-related complications following right hepatectomy in living donors are lacking.

Objective: to compare the effect of salt consumption on blood pressure (BP) of an indigenous and of a non-indigenous population in Brazil.
Design: the studies were carried out in the years of 1999-2004 in an urban population of Vitória (n = 1,663), the capital of Espírito Santo State, and in an indigenous population settled in a reserve of Aracruz (n = 663). Salt consumption was evaluated by a 12-hour overnight urine collect.

This study aimed to evaluate mortality due to female breast cancer attributable to overweight and obesity and to estimate the number of preventable deaths with a reduction in the Body Mass Index in Brazil. An ecological study was carried out with investigation of information on overweight, obesity, sociodemographic characteristics based on a national survey carried out in 2013-14; breast cancer mortality rate in 2019 using the Online Atlas of Mortality and Relative Risk Meta-Analyses. The Potential Impact Fraction analysis was carried out, considering the following counterfactual scenarios related to the reduction in BMI: Scenario A - population contingent of women that make up the prevalence of overweight and obesity now composes the prevalence of eutrophy; Scenario B - population contingent of women that make up the prevalence of overweight starts to make up the prevalence of eutrophy; Scenario C - population contingent of women that make up the prevalence of obesity becomes part of the prevalence of overweight.
