No full textObjective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the effectiveness of nurses’ psychosocial interventions for addressing sensory deprivation in intensive care units (ICUs). Materials and methods: A comprehensive search of PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCOhost, Google Scholar, CİNAHL, Embase, Cochrane Library, and YÖK Thesis Center databases was conducted from August 2023 to May 2024, without any temporal restrictions. In addition, a physical search was made in the university library for grey literature. Results: The study revealed that nurses’ psychosocial interventions significantly improved patients’ level of consciousness (SMD = 1.042, %95 CI = 0.716 to 1.369; Z = 6.25; p <.05) and sleep quality in ICUs (SMD=1.21, 95% CI= 0.232 to 1.810; Z = 2.49; p <.05). The effectiveness of psychosocial interventions varied based on the type of intervention, patient age, ICU type, patient group, and intervention duration. Notably, auditory stimuli and aromatherapy demonstrated particularly high effect sizes, significantly enhancing patients’ levels of consciousness and sleep quality. Conclusion: In conclusion, psychosocial interventions aimed at reducing sensory deprivation in intensive care units exert beneficial effects on individuals, notably enhancing their level of consciousness and improving sleep quality. © The Author(s) 2024
Examination of the work of Mehmet Vecihi's Sevda-yı Masumane
No full textEdebi yazının farklı biçimlerde meydana gelmesi söylem alanlarının genişlemesine, faklı formlarla duygu ve düşüncelerin yaratımına imkân verir. Çok çeşitlilik arz eden edebi türler sanatkârların tüm canlı ve cansız varlıkları evrende konumlandırmasında yardımcı olur. Bir araç niteliği gören mektup türü ve tekniği ifade biçimlerine başka bir boyut kazandırır. Mektup hikâyenin Türk edebiyatında modern anlamda ilk örnekleri Tanzimat devri ile birlikte görülür. Mektup hikâye nesir türündeki metinlerde hem bütünlüklü bir yapıda hem de metnin içinde müstakil bir şekilde yer alarak günümüze kadar ulaşır. Mektup hikâye formunda kaleme aldığı Sevda-yı Masumane adlı eseriyle Servet-i Fünun dönemi yazarlarından olan Mehmet Vecihi yazdığı hikâye ve romanlarla devrinin tanınmış sanatkârlarındandır. Yazarın meydana getirdiği eserlerin niceliksel fazlalığına rağmen Latin harflerine aktarılmaması nedeniyle günümüzde bilinirliği azdır. Dolayısıyla Mehmet Vecihi'nin eserlerinden biri olan Sevda-yı Masumane mektup hikâyesini günümüz Türkçesine aktarmak, edebiyat dünyasındaki yerini belirlemek ve yazarın edebi yönünün izlerini sürmek önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışma, Türk edebiyatı sahasında daha önce üzerinde hiç durulmamış olması bakımından tercih sebebi sayılan Sevda-yı Masumane adlı eserin gün yüzüne çıkarılmasını ve yapı-tema düzleminde irdelenerek bundan sonraki çalışmalara kaynak teşkil etmesini amaçlamaktadır. Anahtar Sözcükler: Mektup hikâye, Mehmet Vecihi, Sevda-yı Masumane, Yapı ve İzlekThe emergence of literary texts in different forms enables the expansion of the fields of discourse and the creation of feelings and thoughts with different forms. A wide variety of literary genres help artists to position all living and non-living beings in the universe. The letter type and technique, which is seen as a tool, adds another dimension to the forms of expression. The first modern examples of the letter-story in Turkish literature are seen in the Tanzimat period and they survive in prose type texts both in a holistic structure and independently in the text. Mehmet Vecihi, one of the writers of the Servet-i Fünun period with his work called Sevda-yı Masumane, which is written in the form of a letter-story, is one of the well-known artists of his era with his stories and novels. Despite the quantitative excess of the works produced by the author, they are not known today because not transferred to Latin letters. Therefore, it is important to transfer the story of Sevda-yı Masumane, which is one of the works of Mehmet Vecihi, into contemporary Turkish literature, to determine its place in the world of literature and to trace the literary aspect of the author. This study aims to unearth the work called Sevda-yı Masumane, which is considered as a reason for preference in the field of Turkish literature, since it has never been emphasized before, and to be a source for future studies by examining it on the basis of structure-theme. Key Word: Letter Story, Mehmet Vecihi, Sevda-yı Masumane, Structure and Them
The effect of nonpharmacological interventions applied by nurses to intensive care patients on the duration of delirium: a meta-analysis study
No full textObjective: It was aimed to determine the effect level of nonpharmacological methods applied by nurses to patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit on the duration of delirium. Materials and methods: For this study, relevant studies were accessed by searching in July–October 2022. After the necessary exclusions were made, 14 studies were included in the study. The total sample size of the studies was 1123. Results: According to the results, nonpharmacological interventions applied by nurses to intensive care patients were found to reduce the duration of delirium (SMD: − 0.625, 95% CI: − 1.1040–0.210; Z = − 2.950, p = 0.003, I 2 = 93.119%). The country of the study (SMD: − 0.047, p = 0.001) and the types of nonpharmacological interventions used (SMD: − 0.062, p = 0.000) influenced the effect size of modulators on the duration of delirium in ICU patients. Conclusion: Nonpharmacological interventions applied by nurses, who have significant responsibilities in the protection and promotion of health, were found to reduce the duration of delirium in intensive care patients. This study shows that nurses, one of the main components of the multidisciplinary team in intensive care, are successful when they apply nonpharmacological interventions well. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Royal Academy of Medicine in Ireland.PMID: 3762445

Investigation of perceived parental attitude in children exposed to sexual abuse: A case-control study
No full textBackground: The enduring impact of children being subjected to sexual abuse is characterized by lasting traumatic effects. Aims: This study aims to assess the influence of perceived parental attitudes on the incidence of sexual abuse in children who have experienced such abuse, comparing them with a control group. Methods: The research took place at the Child Advocacy Center (CAC) of a hospital in northern Turkey and in the pediatric outpatient clinics of the same institution. The study evaluated 101 children who were exposed to sexual abuse and 100 children who were not. Data collection took place between November 2022 and August 2023. The study employed a ‘Descriptive Information Form’ and the ‘Parental Attitude Scale’ for both case and control groups. The t-test for independent samples, descriptive statistics, and logistic regression analysis were used for data analysis. Results: Analysis of scores from the Parental Attitude Scale revealed significantly lower mean scores in acceptance-involvement and strictness-supervision in the case group (p <.05). The mean scores for ‘acceptance-involvement’ (X¯ = 22.82 ± 6.26, X¯ = 25.71 ± 3.89) were highest in the case and control groups. Neglectful attitude (38.6%) was more prevalent in the case group, while the control group exhibited a higher frequency of democratic attitude (37%). In terms of predictors, acceptance-involvement (OR = 1.091, p =.005) and maternal employment (OR = 4.410, p <.001) were identified as the most significant predictors of exposed to sexual abuse. The study’s Cronbach’s alpha value for the scale was α =.743. Conclusion: The study’s findings on parental attitudes suggest a potential connection between children’s exposure to sexual abuse and inadequate parental acceptance, involvement, supervision, and control. © The Author(s) 2024

The outcomes of this study highlighted the significant burden of COPD on patients and its adverse impact on their sexual lives. Given the complex nature of COPD, a thorough and professional assessment of patients’ sexual well-being, coupled with timely identification of sexual dysfunctions and appropriate interventions, is of utmost importance. © 2024, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature
Experiences of Turkish mothers of children with autism: a phenomenological study
No full textThe study aimed to explore mothers’ experiences of children with autism using a phenomenological approach. Semi-structured, in-depth interviews were conducted with 18 parents with children attending a special education centre in a northern province of Turkey. Criterion sampling, a form of purposive sampling, was employed to select participants. Interviews continued until data saturation was achieved. All interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim. Thematic analysis was utilized to analyze the data, and the study adhered to the COREQ checklist for reporting qualitative research. As a result of analyses, three main themes (the process of diagnosis, the effect of the child’s illness on parents and their challenges over time, and considerations regarding the child’s educational journey) and eight sub-themes (feelings and thoughts, reflections on the causes, reactions encountered, emotional effects, social effects, physical effects, perception of social support, and expectations from the educator and the education process) emerged. The study concluded that mothers of children with autism are emotionally, physically, and socially impacted by their child’s condition, facing considerable challenges in coping. In light of these findings, it is recommended that policymakers in our country develop plans that address the difficulties expressed by participants, review and potentially enhance financial and social support for families, and consider increasing special education hours. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2024
