CYTOLOGICAL CHANGES IN TURKISH DURUM AND BREAD WHEAT GENOTYPES IN RESPONSE TO SALT STRESS
Effects of salt stress on root growth, mitotic index, nuclear volume, vacuolization, nucleolar distortion and starch content were investigated in Turkish bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cvs. Yildiz - salt sensitive, Dagdas - salt tolerant) and durum wheat (Triticum durum L. cvs. C1252 - salt sensitive, Meramsalt tolerant) genotypes which were treated with 150 mM NaCI over a 6-day period. Salt treatment of wheat seedlings resulted in a decrease in root elongation and cell division in all genotypes at the 48 hours. According to controls, wheat root length decrease was 49% for Dagdas, 53.34% for Yildiz, 25.34% for Meram, 53.68% for C1252 at the 48 h. Mitotic index showed a more significant decrease in sensitive genotypes (1.24% for Yildiz, 0.66% for C1252 compairing to their controls 3.85% and 3.72%, respectively) of bread and durum wheat rather than tolerant ones (2.21% for Dagdas, 1.57% for Meram compairing to their controls 4.12% and 5.88%, respectively) at the 48 h of salt treatment. Calculated nuclear volume of wheat genotypes besides Dagdas showed a decline at the 48 h ranged from 1.57 x 10(5) to 2.13 x 10(5) mu m(3). Vacuolization and nuclear distortion appeared on DAPI-stained preparations. There was a clear reduction in starch content in salt treated genotypes of durum wheat

The effect on birth pain and process of the freedom of movement in the first stage of labor: a randomized controlled study
Objective: To determine the effect of freedom of movement implemented in the dilatation stage, which is the first stage of labor, on the labor process in pregnant women who will give their first birth.Methods: This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial. The study consisted of 70 primiparous women, including 35 in the study group (SG) and 35 in the control group (CG). Freedom of movement was provided to the study group in the first stage of labor. Data were collected using a Personal Information Questionnaire, a Labor Assessment Form, and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for perceived pain.Results: The SG was observed to be walking when dilatations were 4-7 cm and mostly squatting when 8-10 cm (94.2%). The level of effacement, frequency of contraction, and descent of the fetal head were faster (p<0.01), and total dilatation, expulsion, placental expulsion, and total labor and delivery time were shorter in pregnant women in the SG (p<0.001). After delivery, the SG had shorter initial contact with their babies and first breastfeeding time, and the total 24-hour postpartum hemorrhage was less (p<0.001). When there was no freedom of movement during labor, the total dilation time (OR=2.41), expulsion time (OR=1.25), placental expulsion time (OR=1.16), total delivery time (OR=2.76), the VAS score at 6 - 7cm dilatation time (OR=2.48), and first breastfeeding time (OR=1.15) were found to increase (p<0.05-0.01).Conclusion: The freedom of movement allowed at the first stage of labor was observed to reduce perceived labor pain, the process of labor and delivery time, the volume of postpartum hemorrhage, and the time of the first contact with the infant and the first breastfeeding
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
