International mass migration and its impact on the social policies of states targeting migration: an evaluation on turkey's health policies
Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, Küreselleşme ve Uluslararası İlişkiler Ana Bilim Dalıİnsanlar, yaşadıkları yerlerden ekonomik, sosyal, siyasal veya kültürel sebeplerle bireysel olarak ya da topluca göç etmektedir. Başka ülkelerin sınırlarına geçici veya kalıcı yapılan bu hareket uluslararası göç olarak tanımlanmaktadır. 2011 yılında Suriye iç savaşının neden olduğu uluslararası kitlesel göç hareketinin etkileri, sadece komşu ülkeler ile sınırlı kalmayarak Avrupa Birliği'ni de etkilemiştir. Bu nedenle uluslararası düzensiz göçmen sorunu, bölgesel bir sorun olmaktan çıkarak uluslararası sorun halini almıştır. Uluslararası göç, meydana gelme sebepleri ve boyutları itibarıyla, hem göçmenler için hem de göçe hedef olan ülke için birçok olumsuz duruma ve soruna neden olabilir. Bu olumsuzluklardan biri de, sığınmacılardan kaynaklı sağlık alanında yaşanan sorunlardır. Bu tezde, uluslararası kitlesel göçün, göç alan ülkelerin sosyal politikalarına olan etkilerini Türkiye'nin sağlık politikaları üzerinden değerlendirmektedir. Özellikle 2011 yılında başlayan Suriye iç savaşının ardından Türkiye'ye gelen büyük mülteci nüfusunun, ülkenin sağlık sistemi ve politikaları üzerindeki etkileri incelenmiştir. Türkiye, bulunduğu coğrafi konum ve açık kapı politikasıyla milyonlarca sığınmacıya ev sahipliği yapmaktadır. Bu durum, sağlık hizmetlerinin sunumunda önemli değişikliklerin yaşanmasına neden olarak bu politika alanlarında düzenlemelerin yapılmasını zorunlu kılmıştır.People migrate individually or collectively for economic, social, political or cultural reasons. This movement across the borders of other countries, temporarily or permanently, is classified as international migration. The effects of the international mass migration movement caused by the Syrian civil war in 2011 were not limited to countries only, but also affected the European Union. That's why there is a problem of international disorder, there is no regional problem, there is an international problem. International migration, depending on its reasons and size, can cause many negative situations and problems for both immigrants and the destination country. One of these negativities is the health problems caused by refugees.. This thesis evaluates the effects of international mass migration on the social policies of the receiving countries through Turkey's health policies. In particular, the effects of the large refugee population that came to Turkey after the Syrian civil war that started in 2011 on the country's health system and policies were examined. Türkiye hosts millions of refugees with its geographical location and open-door policy. This situation has caused significant changes in the provision of health services and made it necessary to make regulations in these policy area
Evaluating agricultural support policies and devoloping recommendations regarding ensuring environmental and economic sustainabilty in strategic agricultural product
Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, Tarım Ekonomisi Ana Bilim DalıBu çalışmanın amacı buğday ve ayçiçeği gibi stratejik tarım ürünlerinin üretim kararlarında mevcut destekleme politikalarının (alan bazlı, prim bazlı) etkisini değerlendirmektir. Ayrıca, destekleme politikalarının ekonomik sürdürülebilirliğe olan katkısı da analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada stratejik tarım ürünlerinin çevresel sürdürülebilirlik ilkelerine uygun üretilebilmesi yönünde politika önerileri de geliştirilmiştir. Bu kapsamda 171 üretici ile anket yapılmıştır. Üreticilerden toplanan verilerin analizinde frekans dağılımları, AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), faktör analizi ve lojistik regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca buğday ve ayçiçeğinin ekonomik analizi de yapılarak desteklemelerle olan ilişkisi incelenmiş, Türkiye'nin rekabet edilebilirliği PAM (Politika Analiz Matrisi) ile değerlendirilmiştir. Alan ve prim bazlı desteklemeler; üreticilerce gecikme durumu, üretimde kullanım, ödenen miktar ve üretim dışında kullanım kriterlerine göre karşılaştırıldığında prim bazlı desteğin öne çıktığı görülmüştür (%56). Prim bazlı destekler yaygın kullanım alanı yönüyle kabul görürken, beklenenden daha geç ödenmesi üreticilerce olumsuzluk olarak algılanmıştır. PAM analizine göre buğday üretimine göre ayçiçeği tarımının daha rekabetçi ve daha karlı bir üretim olduğu bulunmuştur. Ayçiçeğinde prim desteğinin 1,53 TL/kg ve üzerinde olması, buğdayda alan bazlı desteklerin 173,34 TL/da ve üzeri olması halinde üretim alanların artabileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Üreticiler dekar başına ödenecek 308,12 TL'lik destek ile buğday ve ayçiçeği üretiminde sürdürülebilir üretim modeline geçebileceklerini belirtmişlerdir. Destek ödemelerinin, üreticinin finansmana ihtiyaç duyduğu zamanlara yakın olması ve tüm üretim dönemine yayılması ekonomik sürdürülebilirlik açısından önemlidir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Tarımsal Destekleme Politikası, Alan Bazlı ve Prim Bazlı Desteklemeler, Politika Analiz Matrisi, Analitik Hiyerarşi Proses, Buğday ve AyçiçeğiThe aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of current support policies (area-based, premium-based) on production decisions of strategic agricultural products such as wheat and sunflower. In addition, the contribution of support policies to economic sustainability was also analysed. In the study, policy recommendations were also developed for the production of strategic agricultural products in accordance with the principles of environmental sustainability. In this context, 171 producers were surveyed. Frequency distributions, AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), factor analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to analyse the data collected from the producers. In addition, the economic analysis of wheat and sunflower was carried out, the relationship with subsidies was analysed and Turkey's competitiveness was evaluated with PAM (Policy Analysis Matrix). When area and premium-based subsidies were compared according to the criteria of delay by producers, use in production, amount paid and use outside production, it was observed that premium-based subsidies came to the fore (56%). While premium-based subsidies were accepted in terms of widespread use, the fact that they were paid later than expected was perceived as a negative by the producers. According to the PAM analysis, sunflower agriculture is found to be more competitive and more profitable than wheat production. It was concluded that if the premium support for sunflower is 1.53 TL/kg and above, and if the area-based support for wheat is 173.34 TL/da and above, production areas can increase. Producers stated that they could switch to a sustainable production model in wheat and sunflower production with a support of 308.12 TL per decare. It is important for economic sustainability that the support payments are close to the times when the producer needs financing and spread over the whole production period.

The relationship between lumbar facet joint tropism,paraspinal muscle fatty atrophy, sagittal spinopelvicparameters in subacute/chronic low back pain
Tıp Fakültesi, Fiziksel Tıp ve Rehabilitasyon Ana Bilim Dalı, Fiziksel Tıp ve Rehabilitasyon Bilim DalıBu çalışmada subakut ve kronik dönem bel ağrılı hastalarda Pİ-LL uyumsuzluğu ve Pİ parametresinin, FT ve paraspinal kaslar üzerine etkisini araştırmayı ve bu sayede bel ağrısında etkili olan mekanik faktörlerle ilgili bilgimizi artırmayı amaçladık. Çalışmamız retropektif kesitsel olarak planlandı. Dört hafta ve üzeri non-spesifik bel ağrısı olan, 30-65 yaş arası, toplam 105 hasta çalışmaya dahil edildi. Lateral lomber grafi görüntüleri üzerinden spinopelvik açıları; MRG görüntüleri üzerinden faset tropizm değerleri paraspinal kas yağlı atrofi düzeyleri değerlendirildi. Hastalar Pİ-LL uyumsuzluğuna göre "var- 2 gruba, Pİ derecesine göre 3 gruba ayrılıp her seviyede FT ve paraspinal kas yağlı atrofisi ile ilişkisine bakıldı. Hasta grupları arasında VAS, ODİ, İBAS ölçekleri ve ağrı süresi parametreleri karşılaştırıldı. Ek olarak hastalar L3-4 seviyesi paraspinal kaslarındaki yağlı atrofi düzeylerine göre lomber bölgedeki her seviye için FT varlığı ve derecesi değerlendirildi. Çalışmamızın sonuçlarına göre Pİ-LL uyumsuzluğu olan grupta, uyumsuzluk olmayan gruba göre L4-5 ve L5-S1 seviyelerinde FT varlığı, L5-S1 FT derecesi (7,1 (0,6- 34,5) vs 4,05 (0,1 - 28,7)) ; VAS, ODİ skorları ve ağrı süresi istatistiksel anlamlı olarak daha yüksektir (p0,05). Pİ-LL uyumsuzluğu ile paraspinal kas yağlı atrofi dereceleri incelendiğinde L2-3 MF kası için, Pİ-LL uyumsuzluğu olanlarda (1,39 ± 0,63) yağlı atrofi derecesi uyumsuzluk olmayanlara (1,13 ± 0,62) göre istatiksel anlamlı olarak daha fazladır (p=0,039). Pİ derecesine göre paraspinal kas yağlı atrofi derecesi incelendiğinde Pİ derecesi "azalmış" grup diğer gruplardan farklılık göstermiştir ve bu grupta yağlı atrofi derecesi istatiksel anlamlı düzeyde daha fazladır (p=0,005). L3-4 seviyesi paraspinal kasları yağlı atrofisine göre göre FT incelendiğinde; PM kası için, OŞ grupta HO gruba göre L1-2 FT varlığı istatistiksel anlamlı düzeyde daha fazladır (p=0,006). Aynı kas için L4-5 FT varlığı, OŞ grupta belirgin olarak artmış ise de istatistiksel anlamlılığa ulaşmamıştır (p=0,076). FT açı değerlerine bakıldığında ise L4-5 FT derecesi OŞ grupta (9,9 (0,2 - 23,3)), HO grubuna (5,75 (0 - 26,3)) göre istatiksel anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksektir (p=0,042). L1-2 FT derecesi ise OŞ grupta (7,3 (0,4- 19,1)) HO gruba (4 (0,1- 17,3)) göre yüksek olsa da istatiksel anlamlı boyuta ulaşmamıştır (p=0,051). L3-4 ES kası yağlı atrofi grubuna göre, L1-2 FT derecesi OŞ grupta (5,1 (0,4- 19,1)) HO gruba (3,7 (0,1- 14,5)) göre yüksek olsa da istatiksel anlamlılığa ulaşmamıştır (p=0,053). Aynı kas için diğer seviyelerde FT varlığı ve FT dereceleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir bağlantı yoktur (p>0,05). L3-4 MF kası yağlı atrofi grubuna göre , L1-2 FT varlığı OŞ grupta HO gruba göre istatiksel anlamlı düzeyde daha fazladır (p=0,02). Aynı kas için FT derecesi değerlendirildiğinde L1-2 FT dercesi OŞ grupta (5,9 (0,1- 19,1)) HO gruba (3,5 (0,3- 14,5)) göre istatistiksel anlamlı düzeyde daha yüksektir (p=0,009). Pİ açı derecesi ve Pİ-LL uyumsuzluğu hem lomber omurga mekaniğinde etkili diğer lomber yapılar hem de bel ağrısıyla ilişkili olabilir. Bu ilişkinin segment spesifik yorumlanması ve bel ağrısındaki klinik öneminin net olarak belirlenmesi için kontrol grubunun dahil ediliği, daha yüksek hasta sayısı ile yapılan çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of PI-LL mismatch and PI parameter on FT and paraspinal muscles in patients with subacute and chronic low back pain and thus to increase our knowledge about the mechanical factors that are effective in low back pain. Our study was planned as a retrospective cross-sectional study. A total of 105 patients aged 30-65 years with non-specific low back pain for four weeks or more were included in the study. Spinopelvic angles were evaluated on lateral lumbar radiographs and facet tropism values and paraspinal muscle fatty atrophy levels were evaluated on MRI images. Patients were divided into 2 groups according to PI-LL discordance and 3 groups according to the degree of PI and the relationship between FT at each level and paraspinal muscle fatty atrophy was evaluated. VAS, ODI, IBAS scales and pain duration parameters were compared between patient groups. In addition, the presence and degree of FT were evaluated for each level in the lumbar region according to the fatty atrophy group( NM; non to modarate , MS; modarete to sever) in the paraspinal muscles at the L3-4 level. According to the results of our study, the presence of FT at L4-5 and L5-S1 levels, L5-S1 FT grade (7.1 (0.6- 34.5) vs 4.05 (0.1- 28.7)), VAS, ODI scores and pain duration were statistically significantly higher in the group with PI-LL mismatch compared to the group without mismatch (p0.05). When the degree of paraspinal muscle fatty atrophy was analyzed with PI-LL mismatch, the degree of fatty atrophy in those with PI-LL mismatch (1.39 ± 0.63) was statistically significantly higher than those without mismatch (1.13 ± 0.62) for L2-3 MF muscle (p=0.039). When the degree of paraspinal muscle fatty atrophy was analyzed according to the degree of PI, the group with "decreased" degree of PI differed from the other groups and the degree of fatty atrophy was statistically significantly higher in this group (p=0.005). When FT was analyzed according to fatty atrophy of the paraspinal muscles at the L3-4 level; for the PM muscle, the presence of L1-2 FT was statistically significantly higher in the group than in the NM group (p=0,006). For the same muscle, the presence of L4-5 FT was significantly increased in the MS group, but did not reach statistical significance (p=0.076). In terms of FT angle values, the degree of L4-5 FT was statistically significantly higher in the MS group (9.9 (0.2 - 23.3)) compared to the NM group (5.75 (0 - 26.3)) (p=0.042). The degree of L1-2 FT was higher in the MS group (7.3 (0.4- 19.1)) than in the NM group (4 (0.1 - 17.3)), but did not reach statistical significance (p=0.051). Compared to the fatty atrophy groups in the L3-4 ES muscle, the L1-2 FT grade was higher in the MS group (5.1 (0.4- 19.1)) than in the NM group (3.7 (0.1- 14.5)) but did not reach statistical significance (p=0.053). For the same muscle, there was no statistically significant correlation between the presence of FT at other levels and the degree of FT (p>0.05). Compared to the fatty atrophy groups in the L3-4 MF muscle, the presence of FT at L1-2 was statistically significantly higher in the MS group than in the NM group (p=0.02). When the degree of FT for the same muscle was evaluated, the degree of L1-2 FT was statistically significantly higher in the MS group (5.9 (0.1- 19.1)) than in the NM group (3.5 (0.3- 14.5)) (p=0.009). The degree of PI angle and PI-LL mismatch may be related to both other lumbar structures that are effective in lumbar spine mechanics and low back pain. For a segment-specific interpretation of this relationship and a clear determination of its clinical significance in low back pain, studies with a larger number of patients and a control group are needed
The Effect of Wild Mushroom Collection in The Mountains of Strandja on The Economic Development of The People Living in The Region
There is a need for innovative approaches that can accommodate the rural population and manage to keep the rural population in the settlement. At this point, it is important to carry out actions that will adequately meet the living conditions of rural areas and to increase the income levels of rural people. The protection of forests and the maintenance of biological diversity are important in terms of non-wood forest products collected from the forests by the villagers living in that region, and it is very important for the sustainability and economic future of life in the region. In this study, a questionnaire was collected from 130 households living in the region to determine the importance of mushrooms, which grew naturally in the mountains of Strandja and were used for consumption, in terms of family economy and development. The empirical analysis was based on a face-to-face survey of 130 respondents living in villages close to the Strandja Mountains and collecting mushrooms in 2019. The answers given to the questions, which determined the opinions of the participants about the mushrooms growing in nature, were taken with a 5-point Likert scale and factor analysis was performed. Villagers collecting mushrooms could not get the income they wanted from the products they obtained. It was determined that the income of mushroom collectors from mushrooms contributed to their daily needs, but did not make a significant contribution to increasing their welfare level. For this, villagers needed to establish cooperatives and create their own sales points. Since the mushroom collectors used the mushrooms in their diets, the villagers should be trained in mushroom drying and canning to ensure mushroom consumption throughout the year. In the research, it was observed that the local people were aware of the contribution of mushrooms to the economy and that a large part of their food consumption consisted of mushrooms grown in nature and therefore it was important in rural development
Fatty acids composition in Pistachio
3rd International Conference on Research of Agricultural and Food Technologies, I-CRAFT 2023 -- 4 October 2023 through 6 October 2023 -- Adana -- 196444Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.), is an important food source for human health. It has nutritional content rich in protein, fat, fatty acids, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Such as other nuts, pistachio oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids. Pistachio is rich in omega fatty acids such as n-3, n-6, n-9, it is known to be beneficial in decreasing cholesterol by increasing HDL level in blood plasma. Oleic acid (C18: 1) and palmitoleic acid are the main component of unsaturated fatty acids in pistachio. It has fatty acids such as linoleic acid and alpha linoleic acid among polyunsaturated fatty acids and myristic acid, palmitic acid, stearic acid among saturated fatty acids. Gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) is generally used for the analysis of fatty acids in foods. The main component of unsaturated fatty acids contained in pistachio is oleic acid (C18: 1) and the variety varies between 51.6% and 81.17% according to the origin. Linoleic acid (C18:2) content, which is a polyunsaturated fatty acid, varies between 15% and 30%. Stearic acid content of saturated fatty acids varies between 0.8% and 3.5%. This review provides information about the properties and curent status of the fatty acids in pistachios. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences

A preliminary study on the use of phycocyanin as a natural blue color source in toffee-type soft candy: Effect of storage temperature and pigment concentration
In this study, phycocyanin obtained from Spirulina platensis extract was used at various concentrations as a natural blue color source in toffee-type soft candy, and the effect of various storage temperatures (4, 20, and 40 degrees C) on the color stability was investigated. In addition, main quality parameters, such as water activity, texture, and sensory analysis, were determined in the samples stored for 3 months at 20 degrees C, and thus the effect of phycocyanin addition on the product appeal was studied. According to the results, the addition of phycocyanin powder did not significantly affect water activity (p > .05). As expected, L*, a*, and b* values of the samples changed with the phycocyanin, and the Delta E values of the samples stored at 4, 20, and 40 degrees C varied between 0.14-0.44, 0.84-2.76, and 2.63-7.90, respectively, during the entire storage period. The texture analysis outputs revealed that the use of phycocyanin did not cause any change in the textural properties of the samples (p > .05). Considering the sensory analysis, all studied concentrations scored high in terms of color liking, and the use of phycocyanin in toffee-type soft candy production resulted in a remarkable consumer appeal. Hence, the outcomes of this study show that if temperature control is performed in the production, the organoleptic properties of toffee-type candy products can be enhanced using phycocyanin and can meet consumer requests and demands.This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors
The comprehensive evaluation of oral and fecal microbiota in patients with acromegaly
PurposeThe alteration of the microbiota in the mouth and gut could potentially play a role in the pathogenesis of various diseases, and conversely, these diseases may have an influence on the composition of the gut microbiota. Acromegaly disease can potentially affect physiological processes in the mouth and gut. The present study was designed to investigate the relationship between acromegaly and the oral and gut microbiota, as data on this topic are scarce.MethodsThis was a multicenter, cross-sectional study. Our study included individuals diagnosed with acromegaly (who were treated and followed up, and also as an another group of patients with newly diagnosed acromegaly) and healthy participants. All three groups were assessed and compared based on age, sex, serum IGF-1, body mass index BMI as well as their stool and oral microbiota We collected demographic information from the patients, collected fecal and oral samples, performed DNA isolation followed by 16 S rRNA sequencing, and then performed bioinformatic analysis. We also analyzed the oral and fecal samples with respect to medical and surgical treatment and disease control status, specific treatments received for acromegaly, presence of comorbidities, hypopituitarism status, presence of intestinal polyps.ResultsOne hundred and three patients with acromegaly, 15 newly diagnosed patients with acromegaly without comorbidities and 34 healthy controls were included in the study. The Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio was significantly lower in patients with acromegaly who received treatment (medical and/or surgical) than in healthy controls. In addition, a significant difference was found in the fecal and oral microbiota of patients with acromegaly with disease control compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, a significant difference was found in the fecal and oral microbiota of patients with acromegaly without disease control. Nevertheless, it was not possible to establish a clear relationship between disease control status, the presence of intestinal polyps, the presence of type 2 diabetes and the composition of the oral and gut microbiota in acromegalic patients who had received different forms of treatment.ConclusionPatients with acromegaly show distinct gut microbiota profiles, and it is evident that factors beyond the GH/IGF-1 axis play a role in shaping the gut microbiota of individuals with acromegaly.Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit of Istanbul University-CerrahpasaWe would like to thank Baris Otlu for his contribution to the DNA isolation process
