The evaluation of vascular flow in clubfoot: a resistive index and peak systolic velocity study
No full textResistive index (RI) and peak systolic velocity (PSV) are important Color doppler ultrasonography (CDU) parameters indicating the microcirculation and flow velocity in tissues. We aim to determine the changes in vascular flow characteristics in clubfoot after Ponseti treatment. There were three groups: the clubfoot group, the healthy group (the unaffected feet with unilateral deformities) and the control group. The Pirani severity scoring and CDU examinations of the foot were performed at initial admission and the 6th-month follow-up after Ponseti treatment. A total of 34 feet of 24 patients were included in the study. The mean age at initial treatment was 20.9 +/- 22.5 days. The RI and PSV values of the clubfeet and the healthy group were similar. Resistive index values were significantly lower, and PSV values were significantly higher in the control group. After Ponseti treatment, only RI of the dorsalis pedis artery decreased, but PSV increased for all of the arteries. Recurrence of the deformity deteriorates the improvement in vascular development. Resistive index and PSV values were not related to the initial severity of the deformity. The RI values were higher, and PSV values were lower in clubfoot patients compared with the normal control group. Vascular pathology is a component of clubfoot, and treatment success improves vascular development. The improvement of microcirculation and blood flow velocity together was detected only in the dorsalis pedis artery. The effect of vascular flow change on prognosis was not detected
Effects of Anatolian Propolis and Hypertonic Saline Combination Nasal Spray on Allergic Rhinitis Symptoms: A Prospective, Multicenter Study
No full textObjectives: This study aimed to evaluate how Rhinapi nasal spray affects symptoms of allergic rhinitis. Methods: In this prospective, multicenter, observational study, 10,000 patients (comprising 5028 males and 4972 females) exhibiting symptoms of allergic rhinitis (namely, nasal discharge, sneezing, nasal itching, and nasal obstruction) from different centers in different regions of Turkey were enrolled in the study between March 2022 and March 2023. All the patients wanted to participate in the study and were administered Rhinapi one puff to each nostril three times a day, for a period of 3 weeks. Total symptom scores, quality of life (QoL) scores, and otolaryngological examination scores were evaluated before and 3 weeks after treatment. Results: The scores for discharge from the nose, sneezing, nasal pruritus, and blockage of the nose all indicated improvement when compared to pre-medication and post-medication. This difference achieved statistical significance (P < .001). The mean total symptom score fell following treatment (P < .001): whilst the score was 11.09 +/- 3.41 before administering Rhinapi; after administration, the average score was 6.23 +/- 2.41. The mean QoL scores also altered after medication (P < .001), improving from a mean value of 6.44 +/- 1.55 to a mean of 7.31 +/- 1.24. Significant improvement was also noted in the scores for conchal color and degree of edema after the treatment had been administered (P < .001). Conclusion: The study demonstrates that Rhinapi nasal spray decreases total symptom scores, and results in improved QoL and otolaryngological examination scores. Propolis spray may be recommended for patients with allergic rhinitis alongside other treatments.BeeYouThe author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: This study was sponsored by Bee&You.

Evaluation of natech criteria in organized industrial zones: An application for Kirikkale province
No full textNatural disasters are unexpected natural events that cause severe property loss and moral damage. T & uuml;rkiye has been exposed to many disasters due to its location. One of the disasters experienced is the Kahramanmaras , earthquake that occurred on February 6th, 2023, in the recent past. Two consecutive earthquakes caused significant loss of life and property. In addition, some technological accidents happened because of the earthquake. The biggest of these was the fire in the Iskenderun marina. After the earthquake, the big fire that started with the fire of the containers on the quay could be brought under control after a long effort and time. Although it is often overshadowed by natural disasters, technological accidents triggered by natural disasters (Natech) accidents can cause severe damage. Especially Organized Industrial Zones (OIZ) are in areas with high Natech risk. This study determined 10 criteria that will cause Natech accidents for OIZs by literature review. The Pythagorean Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (PFAHP) method is used to weight the criteria. Then, a ranking is made using The Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method among the five sectors operating in Kirikkale OIZ and which may have Natech risk.Council of Higher Education (CoHE), TurkiyeThe author, EG, would like to thank the Council of Higher Education (CoHE), Turkiye for their support
Performance and Some Blood Biochemical Parameters of Broilers Fed Diets Containing
No full textThis study aimed to explore the impact of incorporating hemp seed oil (Cannabis sativa L.) at 1.5% and 3% levels in broiler diets on broiler performance, carcass yield, weights of some internal organs, and some blood parameters. In total, 132 day-old broiler chicks (Ross 308) were utilized, with the control group (C) receiving a basal diet without supplementation. Experimental groups included 1.5% hemp seed oil (HOA) and 3% hemp seed oil (HOB) added to the basal diet. The 42-day experiment concluded with the total average live weight (LW) for control, HOA, and HOB groups reaching 2637.90, 2647.81, and 2665.68 g, respectively. Average live weight gains (LWG) were 2595.03, 2605.16, and 2622.54 g; average feed intake (FI) amounted to 4044.25, 3880.78, and 3900.36 g, and feed conversion ratio (FCR) values were 1.56, 1.50, and 1.49, respectively. While LW, LWG, and FI values did not differ significantly between groups (P > 0.05), the addition of hemp seed oil notably improved FCR (P 0.05). However, liver weight was lowest in the HOA group, and the bursa of Fabricius weight was lowest in the C group (P 0.05). Total protein, HDL-c, nonHDL-c, LDL-c, TAC, and TOC values were significantly influenced by hemp seed oil (P < 0.05). In conclusion, the data suggest that adding up to 3% hemp seed oil to broiler diets can have notable effects on feed conversion ratio and serum biochemical parameters, offering critical health benefits, particularly in improving serum lipid profiles. However, the antioxidant properties of hemp seed oil were found to be weak.Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit of Kirikkale University [2018/077]This work was supported by Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit of Kirikkale University.

The Criticality Problem for the Anisotropic Scattering with Two Discrete Eigenvalues
No full textIn a recent study, the eigenvalue numbers of Case eigenfunctions were investigated for the situation of anisotropic scattering. The results of this study is applied to the criticality problem. The investigation is performed with two different methods: the singular value decomposition (SVD) method and the HN method. The former was recently improved using the SVD to solve the matrix of the problem, and the latter is based on the usage of the Case method for proper boundary conditions. We have two different eigenvalues for the given number of secondary neutrons and the scattering parameter. Either these eigenvalues are both complex, or one is complex and one is real. The investigation is to show the effect of the second eigenvalues over the critical thickness values
İSLÂM VE OSMANLI HUKUKUNDA BULUĞ MUHAYYERLİĞİ
No full textİslâm hukukunda henüz buluğa ermemiş olan kız ve erkek çocukların ve akıl hastası kişilerin icbar velayeti ile evlendirilmeleri mümkündür. Bu durumun faydaları olduğu gibi kötüye kullanılması durumunda zararları da hasıl olabilmektedir. Hanefi mezhebi dışındaki üç mezhebe göre icbar velayeti hakkına sahip olanlar oldukça sınırlıdır. Hanefi mezhebinde ise bu hak sahipleri geniş bir gruptan müteşekkildir. Bu sebeple yalnızca Hanefi mezhebine özel bir durum olarak icbar velayeti ile evlendirilen kişilerin, buluğa erdiklerinde veya ifâkat bulduklarında nikah akdini feshetme imkanı söz konusudur. Küçük çocukların ve akıl hastalarının velileri tarafında evlendirilmeleri durumunda söz konusu nikah akdi gayr-ı lazım olur. Küçük çocuklar baliğ olduklarında, akıl hastaları ise ifâkat bulduklarında söz konusu nikah akdini feshettiklerinde akit sona erer. Bu hakkı kullanmadıkları durumda ise nikah akdi lazım hale gelir. Osmanlı hukukunda diğer fıkıh konularında olduğu gibi buluğ muhayyerliği konusunda da Hanefi mezhebi görüşü hakimdir. Bu sebeple küçük yaşta evlendirilen ve buluğa eren kişilerin zaman zaman nikah akdini feshetmesi, fetva kitapları, kadı sicilleri ve sakk kitaplarında karşımıza çıkmaktadır
Comparison of the effectiveness of two different pain assessment methods in different orthodontic procedures
No full textBackground: This study compares two pain ratings that patients use to indicate how uncomfortable they are during bonding and the collection of orthodontic registration material. Methods: Two hundred people, ages eleven to twenty, participated in the study; 125 were female and 75 were male. The participants' discomfort levels were assessed during bonding operations and the initial registration material collection using the visual analog scale (VAS) and the facial pain scale (FPS). During the first registration material collection in oral photography, dental impressions, X-rays, bonding operations, lip retractor insertion, polishing, acid and sealing, and bracket application, pain levels were recorded. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the data between groups, while the Wilcoxon and Friedman tests were used to analyze the data within groups. The gathered data were statistically analyzed with a significance threshold of 5%. Results: There was a statistically significant positive correlation between the VAS and FPS scales when evaluating pain during intraoral photography, the dental impression procedure, X-rays, lip retractor insertion, polishing, acid and sealing, and bracket bonding (0.537< r < 0.734; P = 0.001). A statistically significant positive connection was also discovered when the gender difference was included (0.261 0.42; P= 0.001). Conclusion: Similar information was obtained during the orthodontic initial registration and bonding procedures using two different pain assessment instruments. It is also believed to make it possible to compare research using different pain scales
China's East Turkestan policy: An example of genocide
No full textSosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Uluslararası İlişkiler Ana Bilim Dalı1949'dan beri Çin Halk Cumhuriyeti içerisinde özerk bir yönetime sahip olan Doğu Türkistan olarak bilinen Xinjiang Uygur Özerk Bölgesi, halen devam eden baskıcı Çin siyasetine sahne oldu. Doğu Türkistan, jeopolitik, stratejik konum ve ekonomik kaynakları başta olmak üzere oldukça önemli bir bölgedir. Çin tarafından yürütülen politikalar nedeniyle Doğu Türkistanlılar zulüm altında hayatlarını devam ettirmek zorunda kalmaktadırlar. Doğu Türkistanlılar, bazen Çin siyasetine karşı bir tepki olarak isyan etmekte ve haklarını aramaktadırlar. Doğu Türkistanlılara göre Çin topraklarda işgalcidir. Çin ise toprakların ülkesine ait olduğunu savunmaktadır. Bu hak arama talepleri Çin tarafından terörizm olarak görülmektedir. Terörizm ile her alanda mücadele ettiğini savunan Çin tarafından bölgede uygulanan politikalar asimilasyon boyutuna varmaktadır. Bölgede uygulanan asimilasyon Çin politikasının dinî, dil, eğitim, demografik, iktisadi ve kültürel soykırım boyutları bulunmaktadır. Bu siyaset Doğu Türkistanlılar üzerinde uzun yıllardan beri sürdürülmektedir. Bu siyasetin sonucunda günümüzde Doğu Türkistan, Uygur Türk-İslam kimliğinden uzaklaşmıştır. Bu da asimilasyon siyasetinin kısmen de olsa başarılı olduğunu göstermektedir. Çin, yürütmüş olduğu asimilasyon politikasında Doğu Türkistanlılara karşı soykırım uygulamıştır. Bu soykırım politikası çeşitli şekillerde yürütülmüştür. Doğu Türkistanlıların tamamen yok edilmesine yönelik politikalar geliştiren Çin, bu sayede bölgedeki bütün etnik ve dini farklılıkları yok etmeyi hedeflemiştir. Bölgede sadece Çin ve Çinliler kalacaktır. Geriye kalan Türk ve Müslümanlar ise yok edilmeye mahkum hale getirilmişlerdir. Çalışmanın kapsamı Doğu Türkistan'da Çin Halk Cumhuriyeti'nin işgalinin başladığı 1949 yılından beri uygulanan siyasetin soykırım niteliği taşıdığını analiz etmektir. Çalışmanın amacı Çin'in siyasetinin soykırım niteliği taşıdığının kanıtlanmasıdır. Literatür taraması yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan bu çalışmada Çin'in Doğu Türkistan'a yönelik politikaları alt başlıklar halinde incelenmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Çin, Doğu Türkistan, Soykırım, Asimilasyon, Baskı Politikası, UygurThe Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, known as East Turkestan, which has had an autonomous administration within the People's Republic of China since 1949, has become the scene of the repressive Chinese policy that still continues. East Turkestan is very important region, especially with it's geopolitical, strategic location and economic resources. Due to the policies carried out by China, the people of East Turkestan are forced to continue their lives under persecution. East Turkestanis sometimes rebel as a reaction against Chinese politics and seek their right. According to the people of East Turkestan, China is an invader on the territory. China, on the other hand, maintains that the territory belongs to it's country. These rights decriminalization demands are considered as terrorism by China. The policies implemented in the region by China, which claims to fight terrorism in all areas, reach the dimension of assimilation. The Chinese policy of assimilation implemented in the region has religious, linguistic, educational, demographic, economic and cultural genocide dimensions. This policy has been carried out on the people of East Turkestan for many years. As a result of this policy, today East Turkestan has moved away from the Uyghur Turkish-Islamic identity. This shows that the assimilation policy has been partially successful. China has committed genocide against the East Turkestanis in it's assimilation policy. This policy of genocide has been carried out in various ways. The China, which has developed policies aimed at the complete destruction of the people of East Turkestan, has aimed to eliminate all ethnic and religious differences in the region in this way. Only China People Republic and the Chinese will… The remaining Turks and Muslims have been condemned to extermination. The scope of the study is to analyze that the policy implemented in East Turkestan since the beginning of the occupation of the People's Republic of China in 1949 has the nature of genocide. The aim of the study is to prove that China's policy has a genocidal nature. This study, which was conducted using the literature review method, also examined China's policies towards East Turkestan in subheadings. Keywords: China, East Turkestan, Genocide, Assimilation, Printing Policy, Uyghu
NECATİ CUMALI’NIN EDEBÎ HATIRALARI ve EDEBÎ ÇEVRESİ
No full textMemoirs are the traces of bittersweet days lived in the past dimension. They are remembered for a while, but if they are not written, they are erased from memory over time. Anyone can write their memoirs and each memoir that is written contains an experience. Especially the memoirs of famous people, artists and statesmen have a special value with the life experience they carry to the future and show the way to achieve success. In this respect, memoir has an important place among literary genres, but it also has similarities with genres such as diary, autobiography, and travel writing. The important thing is to distinguish the memoir genre from other genres and evaluate it with its unique characteristics.Poet and writer Necati Cumalı, one of the respected names of modern Turkish literature, has written many works of different genres such as novels, stories and theater texts. Like his other works, his memoirs carry a human essence with their rich content. In his memoirs, he describes his struggle for his own personality and art, as well as the important events he personally observed and heard about the lives of his artist friends. He not only conveys a concrete reality, but also elevates what he tells to an artistic dimension with the possibilities of literary language. In his memoirs, he also gives interesting clues about the undisclosed personality traits of his friends. In addition, the political and cultural climate of the period was also reflected in them. In this respect, it can be said that these memoirs are documents that are important sources of cultural history.In this study, the concept of time and memory is first emphasized. Thus, it was aimed to clarify the connection between the present time dimension and the past time dimension. Then Necati Cumalı's literary memoirs were discussed.Hatıralar, geçmiş zaman boyutunda kalan acı-tatlı yaşanmış günlerin izleridir. Bir süre hatırlanır, ama yazılmazsa zamanla hafızadan silinir. Herkes hatıralarını yazabilir, her yazılan hatıra bir yaşanmışlık içerir. Özellikle ünlü kişilerin, sanatçıların ve devlet adamlarının hatıraları, geleceğe taşıdıkları hayat tecrübesiyle ayrı bir değer taşır; başarıya ulaşmanın yolunu gösterir. Bu yönüyle hatıra, edebiyat türleri arasında önemli bir yer edinir, ama onun günlük, otobiyografi, gezi yazısı gibi türlerle de benzer yönleri vardır. Önemli olan hatıra türünü, diğer türlerden ayırt etmek ve kendine has özellikleriyle değerlendirmektir.Modern Türk edebiyatının saygın isimlerinden biri olan şair ve yazar Necati Cumalı, roman, hikâye, tiyatro metni gibi değişik türde çok sayıda eser yazmıştır. Diğer eserleri gibi hatıraları da zengin içeriğiyle insani bir öz taşır. O, hatıralarında hem kendi kişiliği ve sanatı uğrana verdiği mücadeleyi hem de sanatçı dostlarının hayatına dair bizzat gözlemlediği ve duyduğu önemli olayları anlatır. Yalnız somut bir gerçekliği vermekle kalmaz, aynı zamanda anlattıklarını edebi dilin imkânlarıyla sanatsal bir boyuta yükseltir. Hatıralarında dostlarının açığa vurulmayan kişilik özellikleri hakkında da ilginç ipuçları verir. Ayrıca bunlara devrin siyasi ve kültürel iklimi de yansımıştır. Bu yönüyle de bu hatıraların kültür tarihinin önemli kaynaklarından bir belge niteliğinde oldukları söylenebilir. Bu çalışmada, önce zaman ve hatıra kavramı üzerinde durulmuştur. Böylece şimdiki zaman boyutuyla geçmiş zaman boyutu arasındaki ilgi bağına açıklık getirilmek istenilmiştir. Sonra da Necati Cumalı’nın edebî hatıraları ele alınmıştır
Russian political consciousness in its initial form and its manifestation in the Balkans in the contemporary period
No full textSosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Uluslararası İlişkiler Ana Bilim DalıRus siyasi bilincin incelendiği bu uğraşıda, onun başlangıç bilincinin ne ölçüde değişip dönüştüğü sorularına yanıt aranmıştır. Başlangıç hali kanalıyla bilinci anlamaya çalışan bu uğraşıda ise arkaiklik, arkhe durumu ve arketipler meselenin aydınlatılmasında öne çıkmaktadırlar. Hint-Avrupa siyasi eylem tarzının belirlediği bu olgu ise şiddet ve yayılmayı Doğu Slav ve Rus siyasetinin merkezine koymuş, haliyle de çok sayıda çatışmayı tetiklemiştir. Yakın tarihte de etkisini kaybetmeyen arkaiklik, 19. yy.da Balkanları milliyetçiliğin dirilttiği arketipler üzerinden bu olgunun merkezine taşırken neticede ülke büyük çatışmalara sürüklenmiştir. Arkhe değerlerin SSCB liderliğince şovenlikle itham edilmesi, Soğuk Savaş'ın bölgede nispeten daha sakin geçmesini sağlayıp komünist devletin çarlığa kıyasla üst yapı ile daha uyumlu ilişki tesis etmesine hizmet etse de onun yıkılmasıyla bu durum maziye karışmış gibidir. Zira SSCB'nın mirasçısı Rusya 1980'lerden başlayarak yoğun bir arkaikleşme süreci yaşamakta, 1990'lı yılların kanlı çatışmalarıyla yeniden kurulan Balkanlar ise başlangıç yani kendi arkhe durumundan bir türlü uzaklaşamamaktadır. Üstelik bölge ülkelerinin kimlik algısı çatışan arketipler kanalıyla şekillenirken Batı ile yaşanan gerginlikler nedeniyle başlangıç değerlere daha sıkı temas eden Rusya, bu olguya dış siyasetinde yer açmaktadır. Bu ise Kremlin'in ortak Slav arkhe değerleri ile bölgedeki potansiyel hesaplaşmaları provoke etmesine zemin hazırlarken diğer taraftan bilinçte hatırlanan arkaik uygulamalar dünyada gerginliği arttırmaktadır.This endeavour analyses the Russian political consciousness and seeks to answer the question to what extent its initial consciousness has changed and transformed. In this endeavour to understand consciousness through the initial state, archaicity, arkhe state and archetypes come to the fore in the elucidation of the issue. This phenomenon, determined by the Indo-European mode of political action, has put violence and expansion at the centre of East Slavic and Russian politics, thus triggering numerous conflicts. Archaism, which has not lost its influence in recent history, brought the Balkans to the centre of this phenomenon through the archetypes resurrected by nationalism in the 19 th century, and as a result, the country was dragged into major conflicts. Although the accusation of arkhe values of chauvinism by the leadership of the USSR helped the Cold War to pass relatively calmly in the region and served the communist state to establish a more harmonious relationship with the superstructure compared to the tsarism, this situation seems to have disappeared into the past with its collapse. This is because Russia, the heir of the USSR, has been experiencing an intensive archaicisation process starting from the 80s, while the Balkans, which was re-established with the bloody conflicts of the 90s, cannot move away from its arkhe situation. Moreover, while the perception of the countries in the region is shaped through conflicting archetypes, Russia, which is in closer contact with the initial values due to the tensions with the WEST, makes room for this phenomenon in its foreign policy. This paves the way for the Kremlin to provoke potential tensions in the region with common Slavic arkhe values, while on the other hand, archaic practices remembered in consciousness increase tensions in the world
