No full textAslan Ceylan, Jiyan/0000-0003-1649-3586; Bayindir Gumus, Aylin/0000-0002-1311-2429Purpose: This research aimed to investigate the effects of adherence to the Mediterranean diet (MD) on depression risk in young adults and to understand potential associations. Material and Methods: An online survey form was sent to university students in T & uuml;rkiye, and 479 participated in this cross-sectional study. Data was collected based on students' declarations. Adherence to the MD was decided using the Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener (MEDAS). Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) was applied to measure the presence of manifestations of depression. Multivariate linear regression models were used for the determinants of MEDAS and BDI scores. Results: 73 males and 406 females with a mean age of 21.6 +/- 2.3 years and a mean Body Mass Index (BMI) of 22.0 +/- 3.5 kg/m2 participated in the study. While 61.8% had a moderate adherence to the MD, 54.9% had a mild or moderate BDI level. According to models, regular exercise, presence of NCD(s), and adherence to an adequate/balanced diet were MEDAS score's determinants, and adherence to an adequate/balanced diet and BMI were for BDI score (p0.05). Conclusion: The relationship between the MD and depression is complex and encompasses several dimensions. More comprehensive and long-term studies, considering the influence of individual differences and other factors such as genetics, environment, and lifestyle, may help to reveal this effect more clearly
االقدس في ضوء الاتفاقيات العربية الإسرائلية منذ عام 1949 إلى 1995م
No full textModern çağda Kudüs sorunu, din, kutsallık ve hatta coğrafi konum ve jeopolitik konum açısından büyük önem taşıyan bu şehirde tarih boyunca uzun bir serinin parçasıdır, Antik çağlardan beri bir Arap toprağı olmasına rağmen, M.Ö. 2500 civarında Arap Jebusitleri tarafından inşa edildiği için bir çatışma arenasıydı ve hala öyle, Modern tarihe dönersek, I. Dünya Savaşı'nın sona ermesinden sonra yapılan Genel Barış Konferansı sırasında 31/05/1920 tarihinde Filistin için İngiliz Mandası ilan edilmiş ve Yahudi Herbert Samuel Filistin Yüksek Komiseri olarak atanmış ve Manda'nın ilanından üç gün sonra İngiltere, Yahudilere Filistin'in 1917'de Yahudiler için ulusal bir vatan olacağına dair verdiği Balfour Deklarasyonu'nun içeriğini açıklamıştır. 1920'den yani Manda'nın başlangıcından 1948'e kadar olan dönemde, bir yandan Filistinliler ve Araplar arasında çatışmalara tanık olunmuş, diğer yandan İngiliz Manda yetkilileri, Filistin'de bir Yahudi devleti kurma meselesini reddetmişlerdir, çünkü Filistin bir Arap toprağıdır ve Müslümanlar arasında büyük bir dini sembolizme sahiptir, İngiliz Manda makamlarıyla Yahudi projesinin kurulmasını engellemeye yönelik barışçıl ve diplomatik girişimlere atıfta bulunarak, 1920'den yani Manda'nın başlangıcından 1948'e kadar olan dönemde, bir yandan Filistinliler ve Araplar arasında çatışmalara tanık olunmuş, diğer yandan İngiliz Manda yetkilileri, Filistin'de bir Yahudi devleti kurma meselesini reddetmişlerdir, çünkü Filistin bir Arap toprağıdır ve Müslümanlar arasında büyük bir dini sembolizme sahiptir, İngiliz Manda makamlarıyla Yahudi projesinin kurulmasını engellemeye yönelik barışçıl ve diplomatik girişimlere atıfta bulunarak. İngilizlerin ve Yahudilerin Filistin'de Yahudi varlığının kurulması konusundaki ısrarları neticesinde ve 1933-1939 yılları arasında gerçekleşen Büyük Filistin Devrimi ile sonraki askeri ve diplomatik çatışma yıllarında ortaya çıkan şiddetli Filistin direnişi neticesinde ve 1945 yılında Birleşmiş Milletler'in kurulmasından sonra Filistin-Yahudi çatışmasının çözümü için çalışmış ve Kudüs şehrini bölmek için bir komite oluşturmuş ve 29 Kasım 1947'de Birleşmiş Milletler Genel Kurulu'nda 33 kişinin katıldığı 181 sayılı Karar oylanmıştır. İtiraz ederken bölünmeden yana devlet 13. Bu araştırma, 1948 savaşından sonraki ateşkes anlaşmalarından başlayarak, Arapların ve İsrail'in Kudüs konusundaki stratejisini bilmek için Oslo 2 Antlaşması'nın imzalandığı 1995 yılına kadar Arap-İsrail anlaşmalarını ve bu anlaşmaların Kudüs'ün kurtuluşu konusundaki etkisini bölümlerinde tartışacaktır.The question of Jerusalem in the modern era is part of a long series throughout history in this city, which is of great importance in terms of religion, sanctity, and even geographical location and geopolitical location. It was and still is an arena of conflict as it was built around 2500 by Arab Jebusites. Returning to modern history, the British Mandate for Palestine was declared on 31/05/1920 during the General Peace Conference held after the end of World War I, and Jewish Herbert Samuel Palestine He was appointed High Commissioner and three days after the declaration of the Mandate, Britain explained to the Jews the contents of the Balfour Declaration that Palestine would become a national homeland for the Jews in 1917. The period from 1920, i.e., from the beginning of the Mandate to 1948, witnessed conflicts between Palestinians and Arabs on the one hand, and on the other hand, British Mandate authorities rejected the issue of establishing a Jewish state in Palestine because Palestine is an Arab land and there is a great deal of Muslims among Muslims. has a religious symbolism, referring to the peaceful and diplomatic attempts with the British Mandate authorities to prevent the establishment of the Jewish project, the period from 1920, i.e. from the beginning of the Mandate to 1948, witnessed conflicts between Palestinians and Arabs on the one hand, and British Mandate authorities on the other. have rejected the issue of establishing a Jewish state in Palestine because Palestine is an Arab land and has great religious symbolism among Muslims, referring to peaceful and diplomatic attempts with the British Mandate authorities to block the establishment of the Jewish project.As a result of the insistence of the British and the Jews on the establishment of a Jewish presence in Palestine and between 1933 and 1939 He worked for the solution of the Palestinian-Jewish conflict after the establishment of the United Nations in 1945, as a result of the violent Palestinian resistance that emerged during the Great Palestinian Revolution that took place and the years of subsequent military and diplomatic conflict, and formed a committee to divide the city of Jerusalem, and on November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly. Decision No. 181 was voted on, in which 33 people participated in the Board of Directors. While objecting, the state is in favor of partition 13. This research will discuss the Arab-Israeli agreements and the effects of these agreements on the liberation of Jerusalem, starting from the armistice agreements after the 1948 war, until 1995, when the Oslo 2 Agreement was signed, in order to know the Arabs and Israel's strategy on Jerusalem
Zâhirî Usulcü İbn Hazm’ın Beyân’ın Tehiri Meselesine Yaklaşımı
No full textKelâm ve fıkıh usulü, İslam ilim geleneğinde erken dönemlerden itibaren Müslümanların gündemindeki temel meseleleri sistematik biçimde ele alan iki kritik disiplindir. Bu iki disiplin ilim tarihimiz boyunca iç içe gelişmiş, bazı ortak meseleleri konu edinmiş ve önemli ölçüde birbirlerini etkilemişlerdir. Literatür araştırmaları, kelamda araştırılan bazı konuların teorik olarak fıkıh usulü zemininde tartışıldığını, fıkıh usulündeki bazı meselelerin ise kelamın temel prensiplerine dayandığını ortaya koymuştur. Bu disiplinlerin kesişim noktalarından biri de beyânın tehiri meselesidir. Zira fıkıh usulündeki bu tartışma kelâmî kabullerle yakından ilişkilidir. Bu nedenle beyânın tehiri meselesinin kelâm ve fıkıh usulüne yansımasının tespiti önem arzetmektedir. Geniş anlamda beyân, kural koyucunun (Şâriʿ) dini hükümleri mukellefe ulaştırmasıdır. Dar anlamda ise dinî hükümler ihtiva eden hitap ile kastedilen anlamın mükellefe bildirilmesidir. Beyânın geciktirilmesi ise söz konusu anlamın mükellefe ulaştırılmasının geciktirilmesidir. Bu bağlamda, her iki disiplinde de etkili olan ve katı bir literalist yaklaşımıyla tanınan Zâhirî usulcü İbn Hazm’ın beyânın tehiri meselesine getirdiği yorumlar dikkat çekicidir. Beyânın hacet vaktinden tehir edilemeyeceği noktasında âlimler ittifak etmişlerse de hitap vaktinden tehir edilip edilmeyeceği noktasında üç farklı görüş ileri sürmüşlerdir. Fıkıh usulcülerinin cumhuru, beyânın hitap vaktinden tehir edilebileceğini savunmuştur. Cumhûr, bu noktada hitabın mutevasını teklif ile ilişkilendirerek teklif yüklemeyene kadar hitabın beyân edilmesinin gerekli olmadığını savunmuştur. Şer’î hitapta beyânın hem hacet vaktinden hem de hitap vaktinden tehir edilemeyeceğini savunan Mu‘tezilî âlimler görüşlerini adalet ve hüsün-kubuh anlayışları üzerine inşâ etmişlerdir. Mu‘tezilî âlimler beyânın hitap vaktinden tehir edilmesinin hitabı kabîh kılacağı ve kabîh bir hitap ile hitapta bulunmanın ise Şâri teâla hakkında caiz olmadığını savunmuşlardır. Hanefî usulcüler ise hitap formları arasında fark gözetmişlerdir. Onlar âm lafzın beyânının hitap vaktinden tehir edilmesini caiz görmez iken, mücmel lafzın beyânının tehir edilmesini caiz görmüşlerdir. Zâhirî usulcü İbn Hazm’ın cumhur ile ittifak ettiği ve konuyla ilgili görüşlerini her aşamada naslarla temellendirdiği ortaya konulmuştur. İbn Hazm'a göre mesele aklî olmayıp her yönüyle naslar çerçevesinde ele alınmalıdır. Çünkü akıl tek başına ilahi eylemlerle ilgili konuları belirlemeye yeterli değildir. İbn Hazm beyânın hitap vaktinden tehir edilebileceği yönündeki görüşün Tanrı’nın istediği her şekilde tasarrufta bulunabileceği yönündeki naslar çerçevesinde temellendirmiş ve böyle bir hitabın teklif açısından da herhangi bir prıblem teşkil etmediğini savunmuştur. İbn Hazm beyânın âmel vaktinden tehir edilmesinin ise teklif açısından problem olacağını savunmuş ve bunun caiz olmadığını ileri sürmüştür. Ona göre hitabın amel vaktinden tehir edilmesi teklifi Mâ lâ yutak olup, bunun da vuku bulmadığı nasla sabittir. Dolayısıyla kelâmî argümanların yoğun olarak kullanıldığı beyânın tehiri meselesinde İbn Hazm katı literalist tutumunu korumuş ve meseleyi her açıdan nasların literal anlamıyla temellendirebilmiştir
Adaptation of the Employee Spirituality Scale Into Turkish: a Study on Healthcare Workers
No full textThis study aimed to adapt the Employee Spirituality Scale to Turkish culture for healthcare professionals. A total of 230 healthcare workers participated in the adaptation of the scale, which comprises 24 items. The research data were collected face-to-face with a questionnaire that included demographic characteristics, the Employee Spirituality Scale, and the Spiritual Orientation Scale. Construct validity was analyzed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The two-factor structure of the Employee Spirituality Scale was confirmed in the Turkish sample and showed acceptable fit values. Because of CFA, 2 items were removed from the scale because they did not fit. For criterion validity, the Pearson Correlation Coefficient between the scale and the Spiritual Orientation Scale was calculated, and a significant positive result was obtained. This study demonstrated that the Turkish version of the Employee Spirituality Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool for health care workers to assess the various dimensions of human spirituality that give individuals a sense of guidance, facilitate finding meaning and purpose in one’s tasks, enable them to overcome their weaknesses and limitations in the workplace, and assess various dimensions of human spirituality as a relationship with a higher power
Effects of Spice Mixtures and Konjac Glucomannan-Whey Protein Isolate Based Edible Films on the Microbiological Stability and Textural Properties of Cheese
No full textSome of the main factors affecting the product quality and shelf life of cheese include weight loss during storage, microbial spoilage, and structural changes in processing technology. Edible films are coating materials produced with the aim of improving quality properties and extending shelf life, and various studies have been conducted on their properties. However, research examining the effects of coatings enriched with spice-derived natural antimicrobial compounds is scarce in relation to cheese quality. In this study, edible films and spice mixtures were applied to cheese during storage, and their effects on weight loss, textural properties, and microbiological stability were investigated. Response surface methodology was used to determine the edible films and spice mixtures used in the coatings. The amounts of whey protein isolate and konjac glucomannan in the composition of edible films were found to affect water vapor permeability, elongation coefficient, and tensile strength properties; in the spice mixtures, thyme, rosemary, and red pepper were found to have antifungal effects. Based on the data obtained, it was determined that applying an edible film coating to the cheese surface reduced weight loss and improved textural properties, while applying a spice mixture coating increased microbial stability. This study demonstrates that the use of edible films supported by natural protective components could be a practically applicable, innovative, and sustainable approach to improving the properties of cheese and extending its shelf life.Harran University-Scientific Research Projects Unit [16192]This research was funded by Harran University-Scientific Research Projects Unit, grant number 16192
Cytotoxic Effect of Zinc Oxide and Selenium Nanoparticles Synthesized from Orobanche picridis on Lung Cancer as Well as Their Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Properties
No full textErcan, Leyla/0000-0002-6570-8128Orobanche picridis represents a fascinating example of an obligate parasitic plant due to its lack of chlorophyll. It is of significant interest to botanists, ecologists, and biologists because of its complex parasitic lifestyle and specific host preferences. The purpose of this work was to generate zinc oxide (OrZnO) nanoparticles (NPs) and selenium (OrSe) nanoparticles from O. picridis and examine their characterization as well as their antibacterial, anticarcinogenic, and antioxidant characteristics. To this purpose, the produced NPs were characterized utilizing a scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The antimicrobial activity of OrZnO and OrSe NPs was assessed employing the disc diffusion and agar well diffusion methods, while in vitro antioxidant activity was assessed through three different assays: DPPH, FRAP, and ABTS. The MTT assay was utilized to ascertain the cytotoxicity of these nanoparticles against lung cancer, and acridine orange/ethidium bromide staining was carried out to analyze morphological and DNA alterations in these cells. Consequently, the synthesized OrZnO NPs exhibited stronger antibacterial capabilities than the OrSe NPs, while both demonstrated antioxidant properties. In addition to their potent cytotoxic action, both NPs induced apoptosis by altering the DNA and shape of the lung cancer (A549) cells
Vulnerable Newborns: Disparities in Pediatric Emergency Department Admissions Between Refugee and Non-Refugee Newborns
No full textThe conflicts that began in the Middle East and Syria in 2011 resulted in many people seeking refuge in neighboring countries. Due to irregular migration, many newborns were born far from their homelands, in foreign countries. This study aims to compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes of non-refugee and refugee newborns to assess potential disparities in their healthcare experiences. The present study examined the applications of newborns who were admitted to the third level pediatric emergency clinic on the Syrian border of Turkey between January 1, 2024, and December 31, 2024. The most prevalent presenting complaint among both non-refugee and refugee newborns was jaundice, occurring in 23.9% and 21.4% of cases, respectively. Fast breathing was significantly more common in refugee newborns than in non-refugee newborns (11% vs 2.6%, P = .021). Poor feeding was significantly more prevalent among non-refugee newborns than among refugee newborns (9.8% vs 3.8%, P = .008). Additionally, 7.1% of non-refugee newborns had significant medical complications, compared to 25.2% of refugee newborns. This difference was statistically significant (P =.001). Despite the availability of universal, free healthcare at all levels for all newborns, refugee babies continue to utilize inferior healthcare facilities, resulting in elevated mortality rates. Consequently, addressing the health concerns of refugee newborns necessitates a comprehensive strategy. This strategy should encompass programs that bolster maternal and infant health, nutritional support, vaccination services, mental health services, and the provision of secure living environments

Is the Ensemble Machine Learning Model a Reliable Method for Detecting Neoplastic Infiltration of Thyroid Cartilage in Laryngeal Cancers
No full textBackground and Objectives: We aimed to apply the ensemble machine learning model to diagnose thyroid cartilage invasion detected in computer tomography (CT) images in laryngeal cancers and evaluate the diagnostic performance of the model. Materials and Methods: A total of 313 patients were divided into two groups: the cartilage invasion group and the no cartilage invasion group. At least four CT slices were randomly selected for each patient, resulting in a total of 1251 images used in the study. A total of 619 axial CT images from the no cartilage invasion group and 632 axial CT images from the cartilage invasion group were used in the study. We reviewed the CT images and histopathological diagnoses in all cases to determine the invasion positive- or negative-status as a ground truth. The ensemble model, comprising ResNet50 and MobileNet deep learning architectures, was applied to CT images. Results: The following were obtained by the ensemble model with the test dataset: area under the curve (AUC) 0.99, and accuracy 96.54%. This model demonstrates a very high level of performance in detecting thyroid cartilage invasion. Conclusions: The ensemble machine learning model is an effective method for detecting neoplastic infiltration of the thyroid cartilage. Moreover, it may be a valuable diagnostic tool for clinicians in assessing disease prognosis and determining appropriate treatment strategies in laryngeal cancers. In conclusion, this model could be integrated into future clinical practice in laryngology and head and neck surgery for the detection of cartilage neoplastic infiltration
Ruhun Fiziksel Dilini Anlamak: Aristoteles’in Osmanlı Fizyonomistleri Üzerindeki Etkisi
No full textPhysiognomy, the assessment of an individual's character through physical appearance, originates from Aristotle, whose concepts significantly impacted subsequent literature. Ottoman literature, influenced by Arabic and Persian traditions, encompasses manuscripts referred to as Kıyâfetnâme, which illustrate this practice. The initial Arabic texts on physiognomy were translations of Aristotle's books, highlighting his direct impact. This influence is also apparent in Kıyâfetnâmes, which embody Arabic literary traditions. This study analyses three Kıyâfetnâmes from Ottoman literature in regard to Aristotle's perspectives, emphasising their conceptual parallels. The results demonstrate that numerous viewpoints articulated in these writings closely correspond with Aristotle’s concepts, implying that physiognomy possesses cross-cultural relevance. Consequently, Kıyâfetnâmes are invaluable resources for scholars investigating the historical evolution of physiognomy. © 2025, Abidin Temizer. All rights reserved
