TI  - Mushroom Poisonings in Turkey: A Meta-Analysis Study
AB  - Objective: The aim of this research is to examine the characteristics of mushroom poisoning (MP) seen in Turkey and to evaluate the results of clinical studies conducted on this subject in the last 20 years. Methods: Google Scholar, PubMed, Science Direct and Scopus databases were scanned with the phrases "mushroom poisoning, mushroom poisoning in Turkey". 17 studies including sample volume, gender distribution, age average, complaint to the health institution, transplantation and full recovery rates were included in the analysis. In statistical data, random effects model was used. Results: 17 different studies have been identified which give the average age of MP cases, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain symptoms, liver and kidney failure, complete recovery and transpantation rates. The average age in studies involving MP cases was 38.2 years (95Cl% 36.1-40.3). The average age determined as to whether the family members are adults, elderly or childhood is as expected. Conclusions: Although the rates of admission to hospital according to gender distribution of MP patients are similar, the signs and symptoms at admission, the distribution of liver and kidney failure, and the rates of complete remission after transplantation vary significantly.
