The Fairy as Hero(ine) and Author: Representations of Female Power in Murat\u27s Le Turbot
No full textHenriette-Julie de Castelnau de Murat\u27s Le Turbot (1699) is remarkable because its fairy Turbodine is both the tale\u27s true hero and heroine and its author, a character both devel- oping the plot—her own and others\u27—and narrating it. Turbodine is the protagonist, and her heroic male power, integral to her authorship of the plot, is both highlighted and disguised by the text. Her power and its limitations are representative of the simultaneous influence and marginality of the woman writer of 1690s France
Fixation of unstable distal radius fractures by using expandable Intramedullary nailing system in adult patients
No full textObjective: To present our experience on intramedullary nailing device Sonoma Wrx (Sonoma Orthopedic Products Inc., Santa Rosa, CA, USA) used for internal fixation of extra-articular or simple intra-articular distal radius fractures in adult population. Methods: This study was conducted from February 2011 to October 2016. A total of 48 patients (mean age 47.3±5.6 years, 35.4% females) with distal radius fracture, who underwent intramedullary distal Radius fixation by using Sonoma Wrx were included in this retrospective study. Clinical outcome measures (range of motion [ROM], visual analog scale [VAS]), functional outcomes (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand [DASH] score and Gartland-Werley score), radiographic scores (Stewart score) and parameters (radial inclination, volar tilt, radial height, radio-ulnar variance) and complications were evaluated. Results: The total surgery time was 24.3±2.3 minutes. Patients were followed up for 24.7±3.4 weeks. Complete fracture union was obtained at 5.5±0.9 weeks. The postoperative low VAS pain score (1.6±0.93) and high ROM values (76.7° for extension, 78.5° for supination, 80.1° for flexion, and 82.3° for pronation) indicated a very good clinical outcome. DASH score of 8.3±1.5 and Gartland-Werley score of 2.8±4.1 showed good functional outcome. The radiographic Stewart score was 1.0±1.2. Radial inclination, volar tilt, and radial height significantly increased (p<0.001), and radio-ulnar variance decreased (p=0.001) with surgery. No postoperative complication was recorded in 40 patients (83.3%). Conclusions: Sonoma Wrx, which is an expansible intramedullary elastic locking distal radius nail, offers a good alternative technique for internal fixation of unstable distal radius fractures with the advantage of minimum soft-tissue dissection and related postoperative complications

Role of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation in Increasing Femoral Venous Blood Flow After Total Hip Prosthesis
No full textObjective: This study aimed to investigate the role of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) in increasing femoral venous blood flow after total hip prosthesis and to evaluate its potential effects on preventing postoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Materials and methods: A total of 64 patients who underwent total hip prosthesis were randomly separated into two groups. The NMES group (n=32) received low-molecular-weight heparin+NMES. And the non-NMES group (n=32) received a low-molecular-weight heparin+compression bandage. Results: There was no difference between the groups in terms of the presence of preoperative and postoperative leg edema. The calf diameter was significantly lower in the NMES group than in the non-NMES group in both the preoperative (p=0.003) and postoperative (p=0.008) period. Although the femoral vein peak velocity (VPV) was similar between the groups in the preoperative period, it was significantly higher in the NMES group than in the non-NMES group postoperatively (p=0.001). The femoral VPV after total hip prosthesis increased more in the NMES group (43.2%) compared with the non-NMES group (16.3%). In the non-NMES group, the D-dimer value in the preoperative period was lower than on postoperative days one and five (p<0.05). There was no significant difference between the D-dimer values on postoperative days one and five. In the NMES group, a statistically significant difference was determined between the preoperative and postoperative test results (F(2.93)=20.86, p=0.001). The preoperative D-dimer values were compared to the postoperative values on the first and fifth day, and according to the post hoc test results, the D-dimer values were significantly lower on the fifth postoperative day than on the first postoperative day, and the preoperative value was significantly lower than the fifth postoperative day value (p<0.05). Conclusion: Although the two groups were similar in terms of leg edema, there was a significant increase in femoral VPV in the NMES group. This could indicate a potential effect of NMES in preventing postoperative DVT and needs to be confirmed with further studies
The social context of residential burglary: exploring neighborhood level risk factors in the city of Bursa, Turkey
No full textThis doctoral dissertation evaluated neighborhood level social environmental characteristics and their effects on creating residential burglary risk in Bursa, Turkey. In doing so, it follows the social disorganization and environmental criminology frameworks. The dissertation describes a multi-method study. Quantitative analysis focused on three separate issues. First, Census and police crime data were used in a bivariate and multivariate neighborhood level analysis. Neighborhood level social disorganization measures correlate strongly with the burglary rate. Second, feature environmental geocoded data were obtained and the key variables were treated as risk factors for the Risk Terrain Modeling (RTM) and traditional crime hot spot analysis. RTM is a better predictor of future burglaries when compared to hot spot analysis. Third, 165 neighborhoods of Bursa were coded into 4 categories according to physical structure: shantytowns, single family housing, adjacent type buildings, and multi-family apartment complexes. The neighborhood level burglary risk was regressed on the neighborhood type. Results indicate that type of neighborhood is significantly related to neighborhood level criminogenic risk. This dissertation also explored the role of neighborhood’s social characteristics by adding field observations of these differing social contexts. The researcher focused on indicators of risk and the social environmental context of four neighborhood types. The study found that single family housing neighborhoods have the lowest risk of residential burglary. These findings have important implications for interventions in urban settings, providing insights into the role that neighborhood characteristics can have on these encouraging crime and social disorderPh.
