An evaluation of the effectiveness of an inflation targeting strategy in Turkey
No full textIn this research, the performance of inflation targeting strategy was analysed using the least square method (LSM) with the regression model for economic circumstances in Turkey. The results of this research can be summarised as follows: (1) Inflation targeting regime has a weak positive effect on inflation rate performance; (2) There is no significant relationship between inflation targeting regime and growth rate; (3) There is a positive but a weak relationship between inflation targeting regime and exchange rate performance; and (4) Inflation targeting regime has a strong positive effect on nominal interest rate performance. Thus, these results support the argument in the literature that inflation targeting affects macroeconomic performance positively except for growth rate'. Thus, the post-2002 inflation-targeting regime, whether rule-based or occasional, has led to some improvements in other macroeconomic indicators, even though the primary aim of monetary policy instruments is to bring down the rate of inflation. Such stability-assuring policies enable investors to invest in a more trustable environment

analysed using the least square method (LSM) with the regression
model for economic circumstances in Turkey. The results of this
research can be summarised as follows: (1) Inflation targeting regime
has a weak positive effect on inflation rate performance; (2) There is
no significant relationship between inflation targeting regime and
growth rate; (3) There is a positive but a weak relationship between
inflation targeting regime and exchange rate performance; and (4)
Inflation targeting regime has a strong positive effect on nominal
interest rate performance. Thus, these results support the argument
in the literature that ‘inflation targeting affects macroeconomic
performance positively except for growth rate’. Thus, the post-2002
inflation-targeting regime, whether rule-based or occasional, has
led to some improvements in other macroeconomic indicators, even
though the primary aim of monetary policy instruments is to bring
down the rate of inflation. Such stability-assuring policies enable
investors to invest in a more trustable environment

Türkiye’de Yerleşik Bireylerin Sağlık Okuryazarlık Düzeylerinin Genel Sağlık Harcamaları Üzerindeki Etkisi
No full text<em>Dünyada sağlığın geliştirilmesi ve sağlık bilincinin oluşturulması için birey temelli uygulamalara odaklanılmış ve bu kapsamda sağlık okuryazarlığı (SO) kavramı gündeme gelmeye başlamıştır. SO, bireylere kendi sağlık kararları ile ilgili doğru tercihlerde bulunma yetisinin kazandırılması yanında tıbbi bilgileri doğru anlama, yorumlama ve sağlığı ile ilgili uygun kararları verecek davranışlar geliştirmesinin sağlanmasını ifade etmektedir. Bireylerin demografik özellikleri, genetik faktörler, beslenme alışkanlıkları, hastalıkları yönetme şekli, sosyoekonomik özellikleri gibi pek çok faktör ile ilişkilendirilebilen sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyinin yetersizliği elde edilen bulgulara göre sağlık hizmetlerine tahsis edilen kaynakların aşırı ya da gerektiği gibi kullanılmamasına neden olmaktadır.Bu çalışma ile yetersiz SO’nın sağlık harcamalarına olan etkilerinin analiz edilmesi ve Türkiye (TR)’nin sağlık harcamaları içerisinde yetersiz SO’dan kaynaklanan mali yükün tespit edilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu amaçla Vernon ve Diğerlerinin (2007), Friedland (2002)’nin varsayımlarını kullanarak geliştirdiği maliyet tahmin modeli ile Sağlık ve Sosyal Hizmet Çalışanları Sendikası tarafından 2014 yılında yayınlanan “Türkiye Sağlık Okuryazarlığı Araştırması”nın verileri kullanılarak TR için yetersiz SO’nın tahmini maliyetleri hesaplanmıştır.</em></jats:p
Restriktif Kardiyomiyopati ve orta serebral arter infarkt birlikteligi: Vaka sunumu
Get PDFRestrictive cardiomyopathy is rare in children, constituting 5% of diagnosed cardiomyopathies. Prognosis for the pediatric patient is poor. Thrombosis, embolic events are increased. Restrictive cardiomyopathy with middle cerebral artery infarct is rarely reported.

Ekimia ozcan-secmenii (Apiaceae), a new species from Southwest Anatolia, Turkey
No full textEkimia ozcan-secmenii Senol & Eroglu sp. nov. (Apiaceae) is described from SW Turkey. E. ozcan-secmenii differs from its close affinity, E. bornmuelleri, by life form (monocarpic), petal and bracteole morphology, and mericarp features. These data were more supported by the results of nrDNA ITS sequences. The ML tree depicted based on phylogenetic studies aimed to reveal the closeness of the Laserpitium and Prangos species as well as the location the affinity of species in the genus Ekimia. The taxonomic situation of Prangos hulusi was also evaluated based on nrDNA ITS sequences. Since E. ozcan-secmenii is distributed in Sami Soydam Sandalcik hydroelectric power plant in Acipayam, Denizli, the population is threatening by flooding. Therefore, conservation programs are urgently recommended.TUBITAKTurkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK) [TBAG-108T851]The author would like to thank the curators of GAZI and EGE Herbaria for their helpful assistance. We also thank Prof Dr Hayri Duman for his help and comments on the species. This research was financially supported by TUBITAK (TBAG-108T851)

Asperula fidanii Eroglu 2022, sp. nov.
No full textAsperula fidanii Eroğlu, sp. nov. (Figs 3; 4) Asperula fidanii sp. nov. resembles A. fragillima Boiss. & Hausskn., but is easily differentiated from it by its setulose hairiness (not velutinose, partially pubescent or glabrous), by having ovate-lanceolate to elliptical-lanceolate leaves (not oblong, rarely elliptical or ovate), having semi-revolute margins of leaves (not flat), having white, tubular, hairy corolla (not pink, infundibular and glabrous or velutinose), corolla length of 2-2.5 mm (not 3.5-5 mm). Asperula fidanii sp. nov. is similar to A. friabilis, but mainly differs from it by its setulose hairiness (not subvillous), ovate-orbicular basal leaf shape (not broadly obovate-spathulate), longer and wider middle and upper leaves of 3-21 × (2)4-7(9) mm (not 5-10 × 1.5-2.5 mm), corolla length of 2-2.5 mm (not 1.5 mm), corolla tube longer than lobes (not somewhat shorter than lobes) and glabrous ovarium (not velutinose). Asperula fidanii sp. nov. is also similar to A. podlechii, but is basically different from it by its setulose hairiness (not short scabrid to glabrous), hairy leaves (not glabrous), ovate-orbicular basal leaf shape (not obovate to suborbicular), longer and wider middle and upper leaves of 3-21 × (2)4-7(9) mm (not 4-8 × 1.5-2.5 mm), tubular corolla shape (not infundibular), pubescent corolla (not scabrid) and oblong ovarium shape (not elongated ellipsoid) (Table 1).
