Article Citation - WoS: 79Citation - Scopus: 95The association of the severity of obstructive sleep apnea with plasma leptin levels(Amer Medical Assoc., 2003) Öztürk, Levent; Ünal, Murat; Tamer, Lülüfer; Çelikoğlu, FiruzObjective: To examine whether circulating leptin levels correlate with the severity of disease in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Design: Prospective nonrandomized study. Setting: Referral sleep laboratory for patients with sleep-disordered breathing and biochemistry laboratory. Patients: Thirty-two subjects (mean+/-SD age 47+/-12 years) who were referred for suspected sleep apnea underwent an overnight sleep study and fasting morning venous blood sampling. Patients were divided into 3 groups with respect to apnea-hypopnea index: (1) severe sleep apnea (n=8) apnea-hypopnea index greater than 20Article Better Reflective Functioning in Mothers Linked to Longer Joint Attention with Infants(Elsevier Science Inc, 2026) Koc, Nursena; Unlu, Huseyin; Uzundag, Berna A.Joint attention is a foundational precursor to later developmental outcomes such as vocabulary, intelligence, and theory of mind. Previous research has shown that maternal sensitivity, depressive symptoms, and parent-child attachment security are associated with attention-sharing behaviors between mothers and their infants. The present study examined the relationship between mothers' reflective functioning (the ability to recognize and interpret one's own and one's child's mental states, as well as the behaviors motivated by those mental states) and joint attention. Data were collected from 72 infants aged 10-16 months and their mothers. Results indicated that mothers who reported greater difficulty in understanding and distinguishing between their own and their child's mental states (i.e., higher prementalization) tended to engage in joint attention episodes that were shorter and more frequent, and they were also more likely to terminate these interactions. In contrast, mothers expressing greater interest and curiosity about their infants' mental states spent longer periods in joint attention, initiated these episodes less often, and were less inclined to terminate them. Additionally, mothers who felt more certain about their infants' mental states were less likely to end joint attention episodes. After controlling for infant age and socioeconomic status, higher levels of interest and certainty continued to predict lower maternal termination, while prementalization was still linked to a higher number of joint attention episodes. These findings suggest that mothers' perceptions of their infants' mental states shape how they engage in shared attention during everyday play interactions.Article Citation - WoS: 108Citation - Scopus: 128Cognitive impairment in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: evidence from neuropsychological investigation and event-related potentials(Elsevier Science Bv, 2002) Hanagasi, Hasmet A.; Gurvit, I. Hakan; Ermutlu, Numan; Kaptanoğlu, Gulustu; Karamürsel, Sacit; Idrisoğlu, Halil A.; Emre, Murat; Demiralp, TamerThe presence of subclinical cognitive impairment in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is investigated using neuropsychological assessment and event-related potential recordings (ERP). An extensive battery of neuropsychological tests assessing the domains of attention memory language visuo-spatial and executive functions were administered to 20 non-demented patients with sporadic ALS and 13 age- and education-matched healthy control subjects. Mismatch negativity (MMN) P3b P3a (novelty P300) and contingent negative variation (CNV) were recorded. ALS patients were significantly impaired in tests of working memory sustained attention response inhibition naming verbal fluency and complex visuo-spatial processing. The memory impairment seemed to be secondary to deficits in forming learning strategies and retrieval. In ERP recordings P3a and P3b amplitudes of ALS patients were lower compared with the controls P3a latencies were significantly longer and mean CNV amplitudes were higher. These results indicate subclinical impairment of cognitive functions in patients with ALS. The pattern of cognitive impairment suggests the dysfunction of the frontal network.
