Prolonged Grief and Posttraumatic Growth Following the Loss of a Relative From Covid-19: Role of Pandemic Grief Risk Factors, Ruminations, and Perceived Social Support
No full textBu çalışma, bireylerin COVID-19 kaynaklı yas sonuçlarını araştırmıştır. Buna bağlı olarak, pandemi dönemi yas risk faktörleri (PDYRF), istemsiz ruminasyon, istemli ruminasyon, algılanan sosyal destek ve alt faktörlerinin (aile, arkadaşlar ve önemli diğer kişilerden destek) uzamış yas (UY) semptomları ve travma sonrası gelişim (TSG) üzerindeki yordayıcı rolleri araştırılmıştır. Algılanan sosyal desteğin TSG üzerindeki potansiyel düzenleyici rolü de araştırılmıştır. Örneklem, Türkiye'de yaşayan ve yakınlarını COVID-19 nedeniyle kaybetmiş 144 kişiden oluşmaktadır ve bu kişilere sosyal medya üzerinden amaçlı ve kartopu örnekleme yöntemleriyle ulaşılmıştır. Veri toplama araçları Demografik Bilgi Formu, Pandemi Dönemi Yas Risk Faktörleri (PDYRF) Envanteri, Olay İlişkili Ruminasyon Envanteri, Çok Boyutlu Algılanan Sosyal Destek Ölçeği, Uzamış Yas Bozukluğu-13 ve Travma Sonrası Gelişim Envanteri'dir. İlk olarak, Türkçe uyarlaması yapılan PDYRF envanteri için doğrulayıcı faktör analizi yapılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler daha sonra hiyerarşik regresyon analizleri ve moderatörlü aracılık analizleri yapılarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, travmatik kayıp algısının, PDYRF'nin ve arkadaş desteğinin UY semptomlarını yordadığını, yaşın ve kasıtlı ruminasyonun TSG'yi yordadığını ve son olarak aile desteğinin TSG üzerindeki düzenleyici rolü olduğunu göstermiştir.The present study explored COVID-19-caused bereavement outcomes of individuals. Correspondingly, the predictor roles of pandemic grief risk factors (PGRF), intrusive rumination, deliberate rumination, perceived social support and its subfactors (i.e., support from family, friends, and significant other) on prolonged grief (PG) symptoms and posttraumatic growth (PTG) were investigated. The potential buffering role of perceived social support on PTG was also investigated. The sample consisted of 144 bereaved people living in Turkey who had lost their loved ones due to COVID-19, reached through purposive and snowball sampling methods on social media. Data collections tools were the Demographic Information Form, the Pandemic Grief Risk Factors (PGRF) Inventory, the Event-Related Rumination Inventory, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, the Prolonged Grief Disorder-13, and the Post Traumatic Growth Inventory. First, a confirmatory factor analysis was performed for the Turkish-adapted PGRF inventory. The obtained data were then analyzed by performing hierarchical regression analyses and moderated mediation analyses. Findings indicated the predictor role of traumatic perception of loss, PGRF, and friends support on PG symptoms, the predictor role of age and deliberate rumination on PTG, and finally, the moderator role of family support on PTG. Within the framework of the literature, findings were discussed
Search for Higgs Boson Pair Production in Association With a Vector Boson in Pp Collisions at ?s=13tev With the Atlas Detector
No full textThis paper reports a search for Higgs boson pair (hh) production in association with a vector boson (WorZ) using 139 fb - 1 of proton–proton collision data at s=13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is performed in final states in which the vector boson decays leptonically (W???,Z???,?? with ?= e, ?) and the Higgs bosons each decay into a pair of b-quarks. It targets Vhh signals from both non-resonant hh production, present in the Standard Model (SM), and resonant hh production, as predicted in some SM extensions. A 95% confidence-level upper limit of 183 (87) times the SM cross-section is observed (expected) for non-resonant Vhh production when assuming the kinematics are as expected in the SM. Constraints are also placed on Higgs boson coupling modifiers. For the resonant search, upper limits on the production cross-sections are derived for two specific models: one is the production of a vector boson along with a neutral heavy scalar resonance H, in the mass range 260–1000 GeV, that decays into hh, and the other is the production of a heavier neutral pseudoscalar resonance A that decays into a Z boson and H boson, where the A boson mass is 360–800 GeV and the H boson mass is 260–400 GeV. Constraints are also derived in the parameter space of two-Higgs-doublet models. © 2023, The Author(s).IN2P3-CNRS; SCI/013; National Science Foundation, NSF; U.S. Department of Energy, USDOE; Alexander von Humboldt-Stiftung, AvH; CRC Health Group, CRC: 21/SCI/017; Canarie; H2020 Marie Sk?odowska-Curie Actions, MSCA; Multiple Sclerosis Scientific Research Foundation, MSSRF; CERN; Compute Canada; Göran Gustafssons Stiftelser; Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, NSERC; National Research Council Canada, NRC; Canada Foundation for Innovation, CFI; Science and Technology Facilities Council, STFC; Leverhulme Trust; European Research Council, ERC; European Cooperation in Science and Technology, COST; Australian Research Council, ARC; National Stroke Foundation, NSF; Neurosurgical Research Foundation, NRF; Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft, HGF; Minerva Foundation; Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft, DFG; Agence Nationale de la Recherche, ANR; Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, KAKEN; Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, MEXT; Schweizerischer Nationalfonds zur Förderung der Wissenschaftlichen Forschung, SNF; Danmarks Grundforskningsfond, DNRF; Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo, FAPESP; National Natural Science Foundation of China, NSFC; Ministerstvo Školství, Mláde?e a T?lov?chovy, MŠMT; Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia, FCT; Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, BMBF; Chinese Academy of Sciences, CAS; Austrian Science Fund, FWF; Generalitat de Catalunya; Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China, MOST; Agencia Nacional de Promoción Científica y Tecnológica, ANPCyT; Nederlandse Organisatie voor Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek, NWO; Bundesministerium für Wissenschaft, Forschung und Wirtschaft, BMWFW; Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico, CNPq; Nella and Leon Benoziyo Center for Neurological Diseases, Weizmann Institute of Science; Israel Science Foundation, ISF; Instituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, INFN; Narodowe Centrum Nauki, NCN; Javna Agencija za Raziskovalno Dejavnost RS, ARRS; Ministarstvo Prosvete, Nauke i Tehnološkog Razvoja, MPNTR; Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, MICINN; Centre National pour la Recherche Scientifique et Technique, CNRST; Staatssekretariat für Bildung, Forschung und Innovation, SBFI; Horizon 2020; British Columbia Knowledge Development Fund, BCKDF; European Regional Development Fund, ERDF; Defence Science Institute, DSI; Narodowa Agencja Wymiany Akademickiej, NAWA; Institutul de Fizic?

Measurement of the Higgs Boson Mass in the H → Zz⁎ → 4ℓ Decay Channel Using 139 Fb−1 of S=13 Tev Pp Collisions Recorded by the Atlas Detector at the Lhc
No full textThe mass of the Higgs boson is measured in the H→ZZ⁎→4ℓ decay channel. The analysis uses proton–proton collision data from the Large Hadron Collider at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector between 2015 and 2018, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb−1. The measured value of the Higgs boson mass is 124.99±0.18(stat.)±0.04(syst.) GeV. In final states with muons, this measurement benefits from an improved momentum-scale calibration relative to that adopted in previous publications. The measurement also employs an analytic model that takes into account the invariant-mass resolution of the four-lepton system on a per-event basis and the output of a deep neural network discriminating signal from background events. This measurement is combined with the corresponding measurement using 7 and 8 TeV pp collision data, resulting in a Higgs boson mass of 124.94±0.17(stat.)±0.03(syst.) GeV. © 2023 The Author(s)We acknowledge the support of ANPCyT , Argentina; YerPhI , Armenia; ARC , Australia; BMWFW and FWF , Austria; ANAS , Azerbaijan; CNPq and FAPESP , Brazil; NSERC , NRC and CFI , Canada; CERN ; ANID , Chile; CAS , MOST and NSFC , China; Minciencias , Colombia; MEYS CR , Czech Republic; DNRF and DNSRC , Denmark; IN2P3-CNRS and CEA-DRF/IRFU , France; SRNSFG , Georgia; BMBF , HGF and MPG , Germany; GSRI , Greece; RGC and Hong Kong SAR , China; ISF and Benoziyo Center , Israel; INFN , Italy; MEXT and JSPS , Japan; CNRST , Morocco; NWO , Netherlands; RCN , Norway; MEiN , Poland; FCT , Portugal; MNE/IFA , Romania; MESTD , Serbia; MSSR , Slovakia; ARRS and MIZŠ , Slovenia; DSI/NRF , South Africa; MICINN , Spain; SRC and Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation , Sweden; SERI , SNSF and Cantons of Bern and Geneva , Switzerland; MOST , Taiwan; TENMAK , Türkiye; STFC , United Kingdom; DOE and NSF , United States of America.

Evaluation of Choroidal Vascular Structure in Hyperopic Anisometropic Amblyopia
No full textObjectives: The aim of the study was to investigate the choroidal structure of patients with anisohypermetropic amblyopia compared to that of healthy eyes in controls of the same age. Methods: The study comprises three groups: One group was the amblyopic eyes of patients with anisometropic hypermetropia (AE group), another group was the fellow eyes of patients with anisometropic hypermetropia (FE group), and a final group of healthy controls. Both the choroidal thickness (CT) and choroidal vascularity index (CVI) values were obtained using the spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) method of improved depth imaging (EDI-OCT; Heidelberg Engineering GmbH, Spectralis, Germany, Heidelberg). Results: This study included 28 anisometropic amblyopic patients (AE and FE groups) and 35 healthy controls. Regarding the distribution of ages and sexes (p=0.813 and p=0.745), the groups were the same. The mean best-corrected visual acuity in AE, FE, and the control group was 0.58±0.76, 0.008±1.30, and 0.004±1.20 logMAR units, respectively. There was a significant difference in terms of CVI, luminal area (LA), and all the CT values between groups. Post hoc univariate analyses indicated that CVI and LA were significantly higher in AE compared to FE and the control group (p0.05, for each). The temporal, nasal, and subfoveal CT values were considerably higher in AE compared to FE and the control groups (p0.05, for each). However, there was no difference between FE and the control group (p>0.05, for each). Conclusion: The AE group had larger LA, CVI, and CT values compared to the FE and control groups. These results show that choroidal changes in amblyopic eyes in children are permanent in adulthood if untreated and are involved in the pathogenesis of amblyopia.

Mcdonagh’ın Ölüm Perileri ve Bir Erkeklik Eleştirisi Olarak İrlanda İç Savaşı
No full textYazar ve yönetmen Martin McDonagh’ın İrlanda taşrasında geçen “The Banshees of Inisherin” filmi orta yaşlı bir adamın varoluşsal krizinden çok daha fazlasını izleyicilere sunuyor ve McDonagh biten bir dostluk üzerinden İrlanda tarihine eleştirel bir bakış açısı getiriyor. Bu bağlamda, 1920’li yıllara damga vuran İrlanda İç Savaşı ve İrlanda’nın İngiliz sömürgeciliğine cevaben geliştirdiği, şiddetle şekillenen milliyetçiliğinin eril karakteri, McDonagh’ın siyasi mesajlarını anlamak için iyi bilinmesi gereken çetrefilli meseleler olarak ön plana çıkıyor. Colm ve Pádraic’in aniden biten arkadaşlığı üzerine kurulu senaryo, tarihi arka planıyla, oldukça kişisel bir hikâyeyi ulusal ve kolektif bir düzleme çekerek, filme alegorik bir anlam katıyor. Filmde banshee rolünü yerine getirerek, ölüm çığırtkanlığı yapan Bayan McCormack karakteri ve bu karakterin İrlanda düşün dünyasına damgasını vurmuş İrlanda Ana mitiyle olan ilişkisi, McDonagh’ın İrlanda milliyetçiliğindeki hâkim erkeklik anlatısına eleştirel tavrını ortaya koyuyor ve film, ölüm perilerinin aslında kim olduğunu sorguluyor. Bu makale McDonagh’ın İrlanda İç Savaşını, bir erkeklik eleştirisi olarak ele aldığını iddia ederken, Synge ve Joyce gibi İrlanda tarihine eleştirel yaklaşımın önünü açan 20. yüzyıl İrlandalı yazarlarla, McDonagh eserleri arasındaki bağlantıyı ortaya koymayı amaçlıyor
Search for Leptoquarks Decaying Into the Bt Final State in Pp Collisions at √s=13 Tev With the Atlas Detector
No full textA search for leptoquarks decaying into the b tau final state is performed using Run 2 proton-proton collision data from the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb(-1) at root s = 13TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector. The benchmark models considered in this search are vector leptoquarks with electric charge of 2/3e and scalar leptoquarks with an electric charge of 4/3e. No significant excess above the Standard Model prediction is observed, and 95% confidence level upper limits are set on the cross-section times branching fraction of leptoquarks decaying into b tau. For the vector leptoquark production two models are considered: the Yang-Mills and Minimal coupling models. In the Yang-Mills (Minimal coupling) scenario, vector leptoquarks with a mass below 1.58 (1.35) TeV are excluded for a gauge coupling of 1.0 and below 2.05 (1.99) TeV for a gauge coupling of 2.5. In the case of scalar leptoquarks, masses below 1.28 (1.53) TeV are excluded for a Yukawa coupling of 1.0 (2.5). Finally, an interpretation of the results with minimal model dependence is performed for each of the signal region categories, and limits on the visible cross-section for beyond the Standard Model processes are provided.ANPCyT, Argentina; YerPhI, Armenia; ARC, Australia; BMWFW, Austria; FWF, Austria; ANAS, Azerbaijan; CNPq, Brazil; FAPESP, Brazil; NSERC, Canada; NRC, Canada; CFI, Canada; CERN; ANID, Chile; CAS, China; MOST, China; NSFC, China; Minciencias, Colombia; MEYS CR, Czech Republic; DNRF, Denmark; DNSRC, Denmark; IN2P3-CNRS, France; CEA-DRF/IRFU, France; SRNSFG, Georgia; BMBF, Germany; HGF, Germany; MPG, Germany; GSRI, Greece; RGC, China; Hong Kong SAR, China; ISF, Israel; Benoziyo Center, Israel; INFN, Italy; MEXT, Japan; JSPS, Japan; CNRST, Morocco; NWO, Netherlands; RCN, Norway; MEiN, Poland; FCT, Portugal; MNE/IFA, Romania; MESTD, Serbia; MSSR, Slovakia; ARRS, Slovenia; MIZS, Slovenia; DSI/NRF, South Africa; MICINN, Spain; SRC, Sweden; Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden; SERI, Switzerland; SNSF, Switzerland; Canton of Bern, Switzerland; Canton of Geneva, Switzerland; MOST, Taiwan; TENMAK, Turkiye; STFC, United Kingdom; DOE, United States of America; NSF, United States of America; BCKDF, Canada; CANARIE, Canada; Compute Canada, Canada; CRC, Canada; PRIMUS, Czech Republic [21/SCI/017]; UNCE, Czech Republic [SCI/013]; ERC, European Union; ERDF, European Union; Horizon 2020, European Union; Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions, European Union; Investissements d'Avenir Labex, France; Investissements d'Avenir Idex, France; ANR, France; DFG, Germany; AvH Foundation, Germany; Herakleitos programme - EU-ESF, Greece; Thales programme - EU-ESF, Greece; Aristeia programme - EU-ESF, Greece; Greek NSRF, Greece; BSF-NSF, Israel; MINERVA, Israel; Norwegian Financial Mechanism 2014-2021, Norway; NCN, Poland; NAWA, Poland; La Caixa Banking Foundation, Spain; CERCA Programme Generalitat de Catalunya, Spain; PROMETEO Programme Generalitat Valenciana, Spain; GenT Programme Generalitat Valenciana, Spain; Goran Gustafssons Stiftelse, Sweden; Royal Society, United Kingdom; Leverhulme Trust, United Kingdom; COST, European UnionWe thank CERN for the very successful operation of the LHC, as well as the support staff from our institutions without whom ATLAS could not be operated efficiently.; We acknowledge the support of ANPCyT, Argentina; YerPhI, Armenia; ARC, Australia; BMWFW and FWF, Austria; ANAS, Azerbaijan; CNPq and FAPESP, Brazil; NSERC, NRC and CFI, Canada; CERN; ANID, Chile; CAS, MOST and NSFC, China; Minciencias, Colombia; MEYS CR, Czech Republic; DNRF and DNSRC, Denmark; IN2P3CNRS and CEA-DRF/IRFU, France; SRNSFG, Georgia; BMBF, HGF and MPG, Germany; GSRI, Greece; RGC and Hong Kong SAR, China; ISF and Benoziyo Center, Israel; INFN, Italy; MEXT and JSPS, Japan; CNRST, Morocco; NWO, The Netherlands; RCN, Norway; MEiN, Poland; FCT, Portugal; MNE/IFA, Romania; MESTD, Serbia; MSSR, Slovakia; ARRS and MIZS, Slovenia; DSI/NRF, South Africa; MICINN, Spain; SRC and Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden; SERI, SNSF and Cantons of Bern and Geneva, Switzerland; MOST, Taiwan; TENMAK, Turkiye; STFC, United Kingdom; DOE and NSF, United States of America.

Kat Mülkiyetinde Ortak Yerlerin Bakımı ve Korunması Borcunun Sınırlandırılmasına İlişkin Görüşler
No full textKat mülkiyetinde ortak yerlerin bakımı ve korunmasına yönelik yükümlülükler, kat malikleri için getireceği mali yüke ve hasarın kapsamına bakılmaksızın, yapı kısmen yıkılmış olsa bile, birer borç olarak öngörülmüştür. Yapının tamamen yıkılması, kanunun ifadesiyle “tamamen harap olması” halinde kat mülkiyetinin kendiliğinden sona erdiğini kabul eden kanun koyucu, yapının kısmen yıkıldığı, değerinin ve kullanılabilirliğinin ciddi şekilde azaldığı ve artık kapsamlı bir tadilatla bile telafisinin mümkün bulunmadığı ağır harabiyet hallerinde malikleri yeniden inşa ile yükümlü kılmakta, malikler bu yükümlülüğü yerine getirmediğinde mülkiyet haklarını kaybetme tehlikesiyle karşılaşmaktadır. Çalışmada söz konusu hükümler eleştiri konusu yapılmış, karşılaştırmalı hukuk düzenlemeleri incelenerek çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur.In condominium ownership, the liabilities for the maintenance and protection of common areas are envisaged as obligation, regardless of the financial burden forthe condominium owners and the extent of the damage, even if the building is partially demolished. The legislator, who accepts that the condominium ownershipterminates automatically in the event of the complete demolition of the building, in the words of the law, “complete ruin”, obliges the owners to rebuild in cases ofsevere ruin where the building is partially demolished, its value and usability are seriously reduced and it is no longer possible to recover even with acomprehensive renovation, and the owners face the danger of losing their property rights when they do not fulfill this obligation.In this study, these provisions are criticized, comparative law regulations are examined and solutions are proposed
Importance of Nk Cells in Cellular and Humoral Responses Triggered by Pneumococcus Vaccination
No full textIntroduction: Despite the success of vaccination in reducing overall rate of pneumococcal pneumonia, Streptococcus pneumoniae is still held responsible for high mortality and modality rates worldwide. Our study aimed to investigate the potential role played by NK cells in immune response generated by pneumococcal vaccination, which could contribute to the development of more effective vaccines. Methods: The study included mice with and without NK cell depletion which were immunized with pneumococcus polysaccharide-conjugated vaccine followed by pneumococcus polysaccharide vaccine (PPV). Serum samples and splenocytes were collected from mice sacrificed 4 weeks after the last PPV dose. Serum samples were used for antibody level quantification by ELISA assay, while splenocytes were treated with PPV in vitro before monitoring CD4+ T-cell subsets (T(H)1, T(H)2, and T(H)17) and cytokine (IFN-gamma, IL-4, and IL-17) secretion levels by flow cytometry and ELISA analysis, respectively. Results: Results demonstrated reduced pneumococcal IgG and T(H)1 cell levels due to NK cell depletion. Nevertheless, in contrast to these observations, IFN-gamma secretion levels after in vitro PPV-23 treatment of splenocytes did not exhibit any statistically significant difference between the two mice groups. Conclusions: The data indicate a positive contribution of NK cells to both T-cell and B-cell responses triggered against pneumococcal vaccination. Further studies are required to confirm our data and investigate the potential benefit of NK cell targeting in promoting vaccine efficacy, especially in the elderly population who continues to be affected significantly by pneumococcal pneumonia.Hitit University Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit/Corum/Turkey [TIP 19001.20.006]We would like to thank Hitit University Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit/Corum/Turkey for the financial funding (TIP 19001.20.006).
