Yaşamın temel öğelerinin sarsıldığı olağanüstü dönemlerden birini deneyimlediğimiz günümüzde yaşam dünyasının anlam kaynaklarını ilgilendiren istisnai uygulamalar din sosyolojisi için ivedi konulardan biri olmuştur. Bu araştırmada, COVID-19 pandemisinin toplumsal yaşamın düzenliliğine etkilerine ilk dönemlerinde verilen tepkiler, Müslüman dinî gruplar çerçevesinde ele alınmıştır. Toplumsal örgütlenme biçimleri, kendi özgül formlarında tepkiler ortaya koyduğu için farklılıkların dikkate alındığı bir araştırma deseni tercih edilmiştir. Sosyal bilimlerin vazgeçilmez ilkesi olan “İnsan doğası gereği sosyaldir.” hükmü, günümüz pandemisinin kısıtlamalarında önemli konuların temel özelliği olmuştur. İnceleme için önemli olan dinî sosyalleşme, sürekli bir temelde gerçekleştirilmek istenen bir olgudur. Edimsel boyutu, bilinç ve dayanışma gibi grubun oluşumunu ve toplumsal ontolojisini etkileyen önemli unsurlara dikkat çeker. Bazı dinî gruplar yüz yüze etkileşim ve ritüellerde ısrar ederken, bazıları dijital araç ve kanalları etkin bir şekilde kullanmayı tercih etmektedir. Bu farklılık özellikle pandemi sürecinde kamusal bir mesele haline geldi. Öte yandan, yeni medya araçlarının dijital dünyası ve ulaşım teknolojisinin seyahat olanakları bağlamında bir tartışma söz konusudur. Dinî grupların yüz yüze etkileşim ve ritüel ısrarlarını ele alan bu çalışmanın teorik temeli Erving Goffman’ın yaklaşımıdır. Onun yüz yüze iletişime ilişkin analizleri ve günlük yaşamın törensel doğasını vurgulayan yorumları iki temel vaka çalışması aracılığıyla işlevselleştirilmiştir: İlk vaka, pandeminin ilk günlerinde Tebliğ Cemaati’nin yıllık toplantılarındaki ısrar ve uygulamasıdır. Bu dini grubun Delhi’deki merkezi (Nizamuddin Markaz) hakkında başlayan tartışma, hastalık teşhisine rağmen yıllık toplantılarını iptal etmemelerine dayanıyor. İkinci vaka, İran’ın Kum kentindeki türbeleri ziyaret eden hacıların ritüel ısrarına dayanıyor. Şii İslam anlayışının ibadet ve hac üzerindeki ısrarı ve ona dayalı şuurla inşa edilen dayanışma, bilinen bir olgudur. Çağdaş pandemide Pakistan gibi ülkelerden Kum şehrine gelen hacıların hareketliliğinin yanı sıra Hac sırasındaki temas ve sosyal mesafenin neden olduğu bulaşma riski tartışılmıştır. İki vaka, vaka analizi yöntemi ve betimsel analiz tekniğini içeren nitel bir desenle ele alınmıştır. Makalenin temel amacı ve hedeflenen katkısı, toplumsal düzeyde analitik bir açıklayıcı olarak ritüellere dayalı performatif aracılığıyla yüz yüze etkileşimin ısrarını ortaya koymaktır. Dini grupların kısıtlamalara yönelik olağanüstü dönemlerdeki tepkisini analizine dayanan çıkarımlar, konunun önemini inşa etmektedir. Vaka çalışması bağlamında belirlenen vaka bilgileri, geleneksel etkileşim biçimlerine sahip grupların belirsizlik ve inisiyatif alanında kendi uygulamalarında ısrar ettiğini göstermektedir. Zorunluluk inisiyatifi ortadan kaldırmadıkça, geleneksel dinî grupların bu ısrarının tespiti sadece teolojik değil aynı zamanda ontolojik bir doğrulamadır. Grup üyelerinin grup içindeki itibarlarını ve grubun özverisini temsil etmek için inisiyatif aldıkları anlaşılmaktadır. Ulus ötesi İslami dâvetin en büyük grubu olan Tebliğ Cemaati’nin demografik hareketliliğe dayalı bir yöntemden vazgeçmemesi tartışma konusu olmuştur. Grubun ısrarı, her sıradan müminin davayı yaymayı asli görevi olarak kabul etmesini gerektiren yöntemlerden kaynaklanmaktadır. Öte yandan İslam dünyasında geleneksel yapısı ve ritüel yoğunluğu ile öne çıkan Şiilik, özel önem verdiği, dayanışma ve kimliğini inşa ettiği hac olgusunda inisiyatif sürecinde ısrar etmiştir. Bu ısrar, üyelik sisteminin icrasında dinî grubun dinamiklerini ve sosyal ontolojisini korumayı amaçlamaktadır. Esasen gruptaki birey yüz yüze etkileşim konumunda ısrar eder; çünkü bir grupta rol almak aynı zamanda bir yüze sahip olmak demektir. Dolayısıyla dinî grupların bu ısrar performansı aynı zamanda kendilik teknolojilerinin bir yansıması olarak da okunmalıdır. Son tahlilde ortaya konan ısrar, özünde toplumsal ontolojideki konum ısrarıdır.

Solunum sistemine etki eden ve ileri vakalarda ölüme neden olan korona virüs salgını yaklaşık iki yıldır devam etmektedir. Her ülkenin salgın ile mücadele yöntemi farklı olmasına rağmen ortak izlenen metot ise hastalığın tespiti ve izolasyonudur. Tespit ve izolasyon için en kritik adım ise COVID-19 tanısının doğru ve hızlı konulmasıdır. Akciğer X-Ray görüntülerinde virüse özgü bulgulara rastlanılması, bu verilerin hastalık teşhisinde kullanılabileceğini göstermektedir. İlgili çalışmanın amacı, makine öğrenmesi yöntemleri ile COVID-19 ve diğer akciğer hastalıklarına ait X-Ray görüntülerini işleyerek çoklu sınıflandırma yapmaktır. Bu sayede kriz anında tanı koyma ve izolasyon için yardım alınacak alanında uzman olmayan personele mobil cihazlar vasıtasıyla karar aşamasında destek sağlanması hedeflenmektedir. Bu amaçla: COVID-19, Normal, Akciğer Opasitesi, Diğer Pnömoni etiketlerine ait 11,293 X-Ray görüntüsünden oluşan veri seti MobileNetV2, NASNetMobile, Xception ve DenseNet121 CNN ağları kullanılarak sınıflandırılmış ve sonuçlar karşılaştırılmıştır. En başarılı sonuçlar DenseNet121 ve MobileNet ağları ile elde edilmiş olup sırası ile %92,16 ve %91,78 doğruluk oranıyla sınıflandırma gerçekleştirilmiştir.

Covid-19 disease has spread rapidly across continents since 2019, causing a pandemic. A higher prevalence of the disease has been observed in males, partly due to higher expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which, together with transmembrane serine protease 2 (TMPRSS2), plays an important role in viral entry into the cell. Both ACE2 and TMPRSS2 are expressed on the surface of many human tissues, including tissues of the male and female reproductive system. For this reason, the effect of SARS-CoV-2 on male fertility is still under investigation. Current studies have focused on histopathological changes in post mortem testicular samples from covid-19 positive patients, but also on immune responses induced by SARS-CoV-2. Cytokine storm caused by cell pyroptosis and oxidative stress may have a negative impact. As most viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, are able to break the bloodbrain barrier, the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, essential for endocrine regulation of spermatogenesis, may also be affected. Patients with covid-19 disease show higher levels of luteinizing hormone and prolactin and lower levels of testosterone due to Leydig cell damage. Sperm analysis showed a deterioration of total sperm motility and a decrease in sperm concentration in the ejaculate. However, the effect on spermiogram parameters appears to be temporary [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Biological attack or bioterrorism is one of the sides to cause disease or death in all living things by using biological causative agents of disease due to reasons such as political, ideological and economic. There were many biological attacks from the primitive ages when poisoned arrows were used to the use of anthrax spores in 2001 against USA. Although chemical attacks are not as deep-rooted as biological attacks, they have been used for a long time, but the period when they came to the stage of history was the 19th century with the development of the modern chemical industry. Chemical attacks caused injuries, permanent damage and death to many people especially during the period of World wars. The pandemic that can be caused by natural epidemic diseases is the spread of a factor or disease in a very wide area. With the spread of disease; panic, unrest and chaos environment occurs in the spreading area. Coronavirus (Covid-19), which causes the current pandemic, is the most recent example. Coronavirus out broke in Wuhan, China, and started to spread in China first, and then Iran, and had an impact on Italy as well as European continent and around the world with the American continent. It infected millions of people, hundreds of thousands of people died, and caused environmental, social, psychological and economic problems on a global scale. Recently, different pandemic processes related to influenza have been experienced, but states have not been able to demonstrate an effective and efficient defense against the new type of coronavirus since the necessary preparations were not made despite the death of millions of people. Since biological attack and natural epidemics have the same effects and characteristics, it is not possible to predict how the states will respond in a possible biological attack. As in the current pandemic process, the possible consequences that will arise when caught unprepared are doubtful. In this study, it is evaluated how biological agents and natural epidemics are similar to each other and how to take measures against a possible attack or a new disaster. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: In many studies on patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2, the mortality rate was found to be high in intubated patients. The aim of this study was to try to understand how intubation affects mortality in patients with coronavirus disease (COVID) polymerase chain reaction-positive ARDS and to understand the relationship between intubation and mortality in the patient group whose PaO2 /FiO2 is 100-150 mmHg (moderate) and who have difficulty in intubation decision. Materials and Methods: Patient information was obtained by retrospectively examining the hospital computer database and patient files. Three hundred thirteen patients were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups as intubated and non-intubated according to their intubation status after the first 24 h of their admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) and their intubation status when PaO2 /FiO2 was 100-150 mmHg (moderate ARDS). Results: In the group of patients who were intubated after the first 24 h, the number of mechanical ventilator days was 9.15±8.58 (p<0.001), the length of stay (LOS) in the ICU was 14.15±10.33 (p<0.001), and the length of hospital stay was 18.33±12.13 (p<0.05), it was longer and statistically significant compared to the non-intubated group. Additionally, 140 (80.92%) of these patients died (p<0.001). The number of mechanical ventilator days was 8.87±8.51 and the LOS days were 13.53±9.6 in the intubated group with moderate ARDS, which was longer and statistically significant than the non-intubated group (p<0.001). Moreover, in 80 (68.4%) of all intubated patients, 60 (37.5%) of the intubated patients with moderate ARDS had secondary bacterial infection (p<0.001) and mortality rates were higher (p<0.001). Conclusion: All intubated patients with coronavirus disease-2019, including those with moderate ARDS, had a higher rate of secondary bacterial infection, as well as a higher mortality rate.

Coronavirus emerged from Wuhan China, which has been a global challenge for healthcare authorities and individuals. Patients are presenting to clinicians with neurological symptoms caused by coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) or with preexisting neurological conditions with fear of contracting the virus. This is a literature review of COVID-19 patients and patients with underlying neurological conditions affected by the pandemic encompassing December 2020 to March 2021. We searched multiple databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, EBSCO, Semantic Scholar, and Wiley Online for information on neurological manifestations of patients suffering from coronavirus. Clinical data and co-morbidities of the patients were examined. Headache, dizziness, hyposmia, and stroke symptoms were reported. According to recently published literature, some of the patients with coronavirus who have respiratory symptoms also develop neurological symptoms. Certain medical emergencies such as stroke require immediate treatment to ensure better clinical outcomes for the patients. Neurologists and clinicians need to recognize these acute symptoms in order to timely manage and treat the affected patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: During a coronavirus pandemic, respiratory patients may be more vulnerable to mental health problems in addition to their physical vulnerability. Due to the specific nature of their illness, they are more likely to have pre-existing experience of crisis situations, serious existential issues and coping with them. Despite a growing body of literature based on quantitative research, there is still a lack of insight into the subjective experiences of those affected. Aim: Our aims were to explore and deepen our understanding of the experiences of chronic respiratory patients at risk of pandemic COVID-19. Our research questions were: 1. How do the interviewees relate to their underlying respiratory condition? 2. What does it mean to experience vulnerability? 3. How do the initial experiences of the underlying disease affect the experience of vulnerability to pandemic disease? Methods: We used interpretative phenomenological analysis. The study involved 8 participants: 7 women and one man, aged 29–60, with one of the following diagnoses: asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis. Results: Three main themes emerged from the analysis of the semi-structured interviews: 1. respiratory illness as a defining experience in everyday life, 2. the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the self and identity organisation, and 3. adaptation to experiencing vulnerability. Breathlessness is the most frightening feature of progressive lung disease, and can be linked to fear and anxiety in different ways. The potentially contagious nature of COVID-19 draws a sharp line between the endangered Self and the dangerous Other, and represents a critical life situation for the satisfaction of social needs and desires. In coping with them, we observe essentially self-defense mechanisms and emotion-focused strategies. Conclusions: The current pandemic is having a widespread and powerful impact on the lives of affected patients. Because of the nature of the coronavirus, which primarily affects the airways, those affected consider themselves to be at risk. Experiencing vulnerability fundamentally determines their lives: their decisions, their connection to the world, organization of identity, coping and their belief in the security of the world. Identifying their experiences and difficulties is of particular importance for the development of strategies to mitigate the psychosocial impact of the epidemic. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: The Coronavirus Disease (Covid-19), which emerged in the People's Republic of China and turned into a global epidemic, affected cancer surgery in our country as well as in the whole universe. Elective surgeries have been postponed in many countries affected by the epidemic. In our study, we aimed to reveal the results of the malignancy operations we performed in the Süleyman Demirel University Faculty of Medicine, Surgery Oncology Clinic during the pandemic. Material and Method: Patients who applied to SDU Faculty of Medicine Surgical Oncology Outpatient Clinic and were decided to be operated were included in the study. Covid-19 test (PCR) was applied to all of them during preop preparation. In the follow-ups, general findings of Covid-19, wound conditions and surgical findings were examined. All patients used surgical masks before surgery. Doctors and other healthcare professionals wore surgical masks and disposable latex gloves during their visits and examinations. Results: Between March 10, 2020 and June 31, 2021, 138 patients diagnosed with malignancy were operated at SDU Faculty of Medicine, Department of Surgical Oncology. None of the preoperative patients had Covid-19 symptoms (fever, cough or fatigue). Covid-19 (PCR) test was positive in 2 patients (stomach and breast cancer). The positive patients were isolated and the operation was postponed. No Covid-19 symptoms were observed in any patient in the postoperative 15-day period. All patients were discharged without complications. Conclusion: During the Covid-19 Pandemic, the correct management of cancer patients within the surgical indication is important in terms of both preventing deaths due to emergencies and applying the right treatment. It has been shown that cancer patients can be operated safely during the pandemic period, provided that the necessary precautions are taken for the surgical team and patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper analyses online user comments on two mainstream Croatian portals, Index.hr and 24sata.hr regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, global conspiracies, and fake news in the context of decreasing media trust. Three-tier coding was conducted on 12.910 comments (2.194 from the portal 24 sata and 10.716 from the portal index.hr) and a thematic analysis was carried out. The findings showed that the main themes capture global conspiracy theories, including fascism as one of the main themes, as well as a lack of belief in the reality of the pandemic and negative views of the mainstream media seen as intertwined with the Government and as promoting one-sided views. Since the findings were unexpected, particularly regarding the extensive criticism of the media, and due to a large amount of conspiracy-related content on two portals neither of which is normally associated with the far right, an abductive analysis was conducted. The results revealed that the majority of content in the user comments regarding fascism and slavery as features of the COVID-19 policy in Croatia was posted either by a far-right political party (on Index.hr) or two unidentified users (on 24sata.hr) (likely far-right activists), and in both cases, comments were copy-pasted, including grammar mistakes. This signals an attempt of the far right in Croatia to not just contribute to but also manipulate public opinion and debates as well as give a false impression to an inattentive reader of the views of the Croatian public regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bu çalışmada SARS-CoV-2 virüsüne karşı etkili olabilecek antiviral ilaç adaylarının tasarımları yapılmıştır. Moleküler yerleştirme, antiviral etkiye sahip kumarin ve türevlerinin, koronavirüsün temel proteinlerinden biri olan RNA polimeraz NSP12 üzerindeki etkisini araştırmak için kullanıldı. Kumarinlerdeki şeker grubu, hidrofilisiteyi arttırmak için seçilmiş ve seçiciliği araştırmak için amid grupları çeşitlendirilmiştir. 3-(p-fenilamidomorfolin), 3-(p-fenilamidopiperazin) ve 3-(p-fenilamidopiperidin) gruplarını içeren kumarinler, sırasıyla -10.1 kcal/mol, -10.1 kcal/mol, and -10.0 kcal/mol bağlanma afiniteleriyle en iyi yerleştirme puanlarına sahipti. Bileşiklerin farmakokinetik ve toksikokinetik özellikleri, çeşitli veri tabanları kullanılarak gerçeğe yakın olarak tahmin edildi ve değerleri, bir bileşiğin ilaca dönüşmesi için gereken hedef değerlere yakındı. Bu çalışmanın ayrıca SARS-CoV-2 antiviral ilaçların tasarımı için çalışan bilim insanlarına kumarin ve fonksiyonel grupları arasındaki yapı aktivite ilişkisi açısından fikir vereceği düşünülmektedir.

İlk olarak Çin’in Hubei Eyaletinin Vuhan şehrinde ortaya çıkan yeni Koronavirüs (COVID-19) salgını, Avrupa ve Amerika başta olmak üzere tüm dünyaya yayılmakta ve çeşitli alanlarda köklü değişiklikleri beraberinde getirmektedir. Koronavirüs salgınının en çok etkilendiği alanların başında gelen medya, çevresinde yaşanan ekonomik, kültürel, sağlık gibi çeşitli gelişmeler ile sürekli olarak değişim yaşamaktadır. Günümüzde yeni medya alanında haber alma ihtiyacının büyük bir kısmını karşılayan internet siteleri, haberlerin anlık olarak paylaşıldığı ve dolaşıma sokulduğu bir alandır. Çalışma, Koronavirüs salgını ile ilgili alınan kararlar etrafında, medya metinlerinin sunumlarında herhangi bir değişikliğe gidilip gidilmediğini ortaya koyma amacı taşımaktadır. Buradan hareketle bu çalışmada, Dünya Sağlık Örgütü'nün (DSÖ) 11 Mart 2020 tarihinde yeni Koronavirüsü pandemi ilan etmesinden öncesinde ve sonrasında yayımlanan bir aylık haberlerin sayılarında ve sunumlarında bir değişiklik olup olmadığı saptanmaya çalışılmıştır. Bu bağlamda Milliyet ve Birgün gazetelerinin internet sitelerinde 11.02.2020/11.03.2020 ve 12.03.2020/12.04.2020 tarihleri arasında “Koronavirüs” anahtar kelimesiyle aratılan 3.444 haber, içerik analizi yöntemiyle niteliksel ve niceliksel olarak 26 analiz kategorisinde incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, Koronavirüsün pandemi ilan edilmesiyle birlikte haberin niteliklerinde, paylaşım biçimlerinde ve sunumlarında değişikliğe gidildiği bulgusuna ulaşılmıştır.

İlk olarak Çin’in Wuhan bölgesinde ortaya çıktığı düşünülen ve kısa süre içerisinde tüm dünyaya yayılarak pandemiye sebep olan Koronavirüs (COVID-19), Türkiye’de de etkisini ciddi bir şekilde göstermiştir. Pandemi gibi kriz süreçleri önemli derecede haber değerine sahiptir. Genel olarak kriz süreçlerinin tamamında toplumun en önemli enformasyon kaynağı haber medyasıdır. Gazeteciler de bu süreçte pek çok farklı deneyimler yaşar ve haber üretimi çoğu zaman daha zorlu bir hale gelir. Bu çalışmanın konusunu, koronavirüs pandemisi ve kriz haberciliği bağlamında gazetecilik mesleğindeki pratikleri ele almak oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı ise, koronavirüs pandemisi süresince gazetecilerin çalışma koşullarındaki değişimlerin ortaya çıkartılması ve gazetecilerin konu hakkındaki görüşlerinin aktarılmasıdır. Nitel araştırma yönteminin tercih edildiği çalışma fenomenolojik desene uygun olarak inşa edilmiştir. Araştırma İzmir’deki gazeteciler ile yapılmış ve veri toplamak için derinlemesine görüşme tekniği kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda, pandemi sürecinde gazetecilik bağlamında ortaya çıkan değişimler temalar halinde sunulmuş ve gazetecilerin bu süreçte yaşadığı deneyimlerin haber takibini daha zorlu hale getirdiği bulgulanmıştır.

Soğuk Savaş sonrasında, açlık, eşitsizlik, işsizlik, göç, çevresel bozulma, terörizm, insan kaçakçılığı, etnik çatışma, iklim değişikliği ve salgın hastalıklar gibi askeri olmayan tehditleri içeren yeni bir güvenlik anlayışı ortaya çıkmıştır. İnsan güvenliğine yönelik bu tehditler dünya nüfusu ve ekonomisi üzerinde doğrudan ve ciddi etkilere sahip krizler yaratmaktadır. Bu krizlerin en yenisi 2019 yılının sonunda Çin’de ortaya çıkan ve sonuçları hala tam olarak netleşmeyen COVID-19 salgınıdır. Yaşanılan bu kriz dünya üzerindeki başka krizlerle de kesişmektedir. Mevcut çalışma bu kesişen krizlere örnek olarak COVID-19 salgını ve iklim değişikliğine odaklanmaktadır. İki krizin benzeşen ve farklılaşan yönlerini ve aralarındaki etkileşimi ele alan çalışmada COVID-19 krizi sırasında geliştirilen politikaların iklim değişikliği ile mücadeleyi nasıl etkileyeceği de sorgulanacaktır. Çalışma kesişen krizlerin küresel ölçekte dengeyi bozduğunu ve bu krizlere verilen cevapların birbirleriyle bağlantılı olduğunu savunmaktadır. Bu bağlamda çalışmada salgınla mücadelede verilecek yanıtların önümüzdeki dönemin iklim politikalarını şekillendireceği ve yeni bir küresel davranış biçimi geliştirebileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Objective: During the coronavirus-19 (Covid-19) pandemic, an effective treatment method for the treatment and prevention of the disease has not been determined yet. Promising results have been achieved in the treatment of Covid-19 with a holistic approach in addition to conventional medical methods in traditional and complementary medicine practices (TCM), which are increasing in popularity today. This study was aimed to evaluate the view, attitude and behavior of the participants who applied with the suspicion of Covid-19 in the treatment and protection of Covid-19. Material and methods: A 12-question questionnaire was applied to the volunteers among the patients who applied to the outpatient clinic with the suspicion of Covid-19. Participants were asked multiple choice questions questioning their beliefs and previous experiences in TCM and their views, beliefs and behaviors in the treatment and prevention of Covid-19. Results: 145 (77,5%) of the participants say that they have knowledge about TCM and 71,7% of them believe in TCM applications. In addition, 33.2% of the participants have applied to TCM applications before. During the pandemic period, phytotherapy (22,46%) was the second cupping treatment (12,83%), which was considered to be the most beneficial application. Although 27,7% of the participants thought that TCM would not be more beneficial than conventional Covid-19 drugs, 19,79% believed that it would be beneficial with routine medications. Conclusion: In Turkey increased knowledge and beliefs about TCM applications in all walks though the Covid-19 in the treatment and prevention holistic approach to conventional medicine has still not accepted enough belief in society.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada COVID-19 pandemi sürecinde kanser tedavisi ve bakım yönetimi” konusu ile ilgili yayınlanmış çalışmaların sistematik olarak değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Derleme için 1-30 Nisan 2020 tarihinde Covid-19, kanser ve kemoterapi anahtar kelimeleri kullanılarak PubMed, Medline, Google Akademik ve Cochrane veri tabanlarından makale taraması yapıldı. 366 adet makaleye ulaşıldı. Çalışmanın konusu ile ilgili araştırma sayısı 50 idi. Dahil edilme kriterlerine uyan 7 makale değerlendirmeye alındı. Verilerin elde edilmesinde makalelerin raporlama özelliklerini belirlemek için geliştirilmiş, 27 maddelik PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews) Bildirgesi Formu kullanıldı. Bulgular: İncelenen araştırmalarda kanser tanılı hastalar Covid -19 pandemisinde genel popülasyona göre daha riskli olarak kabul edilmektedir. Özellikle ek hastalıklara sahip ve ileri yaştaki kanser hastalarında risk daha da artmakta ve Covid-19 enfeksiyonu bağlı pnömoni daha ciddi seyretmektedir. Pandemi döneminde riski arttıran diğer değişkenlerden kanser türü evresi ve antikanser tedavi alma durumları konusunda net veriler bulunmamakla birlikte bu değişkenlerin de riski arttırdığı düşünülmektedir. Sonuç: Covid-19 pandemisinde kanser tanılı hastalar, riskli grup kabul edilmekle birlikte enfeksiyon geliştiğinde daha ciddi olaylar geliştirebilme ihtimalinin yüksek olması nedeniyle daha ayrıntılı ele alınması gereken gruptur. Bu nedenle kanser tanılı hastaların pandemi döneminde korunması, bulaş risklerinin azaltılması ve tedavi devamlılığının sağlanabilmesi açısından yeni politikaların oluşturulmasına ihtiyaç vardır.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to discuss the progression results of patients with muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) who delayed their treatment by not making hospital visits on time for fear of contamination during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials and Methods: Records of patients diagnosed with MIBC and recommended radical cystectomy (RC) between March 2020 and June 2020 were reviewed. Whether patients were operated on the scheduled time, and if not, the time elapsed after the first diagnosis or the end of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) were recorded. The patients who applied to our clinic late were restaged and examined whether there was any progression during the pandemic period. Results: NAC was recommended before RC in 9 of 24 patients, RC was recommended directly to the remaining 15 patients. After NAC, RC was applied to four patients in the planned period, and 4 patients applied delayed. The mean admission period of the patients who applied late after NAC was 197.8±68.5 days. Lung metastases and pelvic lymphadenopathies were found in two (50%). RC was applied to eight of fifteen patients who did not receive NAC in the planned period. Five of these patients applied for RC in the late period and the average application time after diagnosis was 202.8±31.9 days. In the staging of these five patients who presented late, two (40%) had progression (cT2, N0,M1b). Conclusion: In times of widespread COVID-19 outbreak, physicians should be alert to potential stage progression and worse survival outcomes resulting from delays in diagnosis and treatment.

Bu çalışma, küresel salgın sürecinde bireylerin evde geçirdikleri süre zarfında yaşam tatmin düzeylerini tespit etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmanın evreni 18 yaş üzeri, gönüllü ve cevap verebilecek akli yetiye sahip kişilerden oluşmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden 1254 kişi oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri online formlar aracılığıyla çeşitli sosyal medya araçları instagram, whatsapp, google formlar vb. ile elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler betimleyici analizlerin yanı sıra, Mann Whitney U ve Kruskal Wallis testleri yardımıyla analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre, belirtilen önlem unsurlarının maske, sosyal mesafe, hijyen vb. hayata entegre uyum edilmesinin yaşam tatmin düzeyi üzerinde önem arz ettiği tespit edilmiştir. Öte yandan kişilerin yaşam tatmin düzeyleri vasat ile yüksek düzey arasında farklılık göstermektedir. Bu bağlamda yaşam tatmininde yüksek düzeyde yer alan unsurların maske, sosyal mesafe, hijyen vb. önlemler olduğu belirlenirken, ölçekte yer alan diğer ifadelerin vasat düzeyde yer aldığı gözlemlenmektedir. Ayrıca ölçekte yer alan ifadeler içerisinde düşük düzeyde yer alan tek ifadenin günlük spor yapma olduğu elde edilen diğer sonuçlar arasındadır.

This study discusses the Covid-19 representation of the five prime-time American medical series (Chicago Med, Grey’s Anatomy, New Amsterdam, The Good Doctor, The Resident) screened in 2020-2022. Cultivation theory is an established research framework on medical series; there are studies on the educational potential of the genre too. Following these lines, the analysis aims to identify common plot elements and narratives. Technology, information exchange, and the role of professionals are focal points of the study. The five medical series portrayed the pandemics in three stages: the appearance of the first cases, the crises during the first wave, and the aftermath. Series promoted scientific viewpoints and safety protocols. Covid-19 created a new classification category within the genre: now it is possible to differentiate between medical series representing the pandemic as an ongoing or past issue. It is a sensitive question since this genre aims to present accurate information and educate the viewers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study investigates the effect of COVID-19 outbreak on stock markets. In this context, Wilcoxon Signed Rank test was used to examine whether stock returns and standard deviations differ between 1 February 2020 - 31 luly 2020 (COVID-19 period) and 1 February 2019 - 31 July 2019 periods. As a result of the analysis conducted it was found that the correlations between the markets generally increased in the COVID-19 period. In addition, it was observed that standard deviations increased and average returns decreased (except DSEX, ISE, KSE, MERV) in the same period. Wilcoxon test results prove that the differences between periods in terms of stock returns and standard deviations are statistically significant. These findings indicate that the COVID-19 outbreak negatively affected stock markets. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

COVID-19 is an infectious disease first discovered in Wuhan City, China, in December 2019. Ever since, COVID-19 has infected more than 70 million people and caused more than 1 million deaths worldwide. There is a need for models that predict the COVID-19 outbreak as accurately as possible to combat such an infectious and deadly disease. By using the results of the prediction models, governments can make better decisions and control measures about the disease, such as arranging budget and facility planning to combat the disease, deciding on how many medicines and medical equipment should be produced or imported, and how much medical staff is going to be needed. Consequently, various regression and classification models have been proposed for time series or supervised prediction of the COVID-19 outbreak in several countries and continents. This study aims to give an overview of recent studies on predicting the COVID-19 outbreak utilizing statistical and machine learning methods. Particularly, for each study, we outline the utilized groundtruth dataset characteristics, the type of the developed models, the predictor variables, the statistical and machine learning methods, the performance metrics, and finally, the major conclusion. The survey results reveal that machine learning methods are promising tools for making predictions for various needs, such as predicting whether a patient is infected with COVID-19 or not, predicting the trend of COVID-19 outbreaks, or predicting which age groups are most affected by COVID-19.
