- Abstract
With the increase in climate change, environmental pollution and emissions in the world, a fight with fossil fuels has been entered. Many countries have begun to take measures to control CO2 emissions, enact laws and amend existing laws. Traditional logistics, which ignores the deterioration of ecological balance, adopts only product and consumption-oriented logistics. Issues such as waste management, the use of renewable energy sources and the circular economy are neglected. While traditional logistics is a purely cost-oriented and monetary-oriented type of transportation, green logistics concept has been revealed as an alternative to this situation. Especially in the emergence of green logistics, the increase in sensitivity and concerns about the environment can be shown as a reason. With the development of the logistics sector, the trend has started to increase in issues such as ecological balance, emission emission emission rates, savings understanding and renewable energy sources. In this context, many companies operating in the logistics sector use efficient transportation methods compatible with the environment, development of distribution and packaging systems, and, he decided that many services such as waste management and emission control should be within the framework of a nature-friendly understanding. These eco-friendly practices have accelerated the transition from traditional logistics to green logistics understanding, enabling companies to update their mission and vision policies. Because the issue to be considered here is the continuous reduction of the supply of natural resources globally and the increase in the degree of pollution. Green logistics activities, which also contribute to the circular economy, are the most important factors that enable the development of a sustainable environment. With renewable energy policies becoming an important issue in the field of logistics, environmentally friendly practices have emerged. In particular, companies within the scope of green logistics in order to achieve maximum profit at minimum cost; green supply, green production, green packaging, green transportation, green storage and on the contrary, logistics have begun to focus on issues such as. Because companies need to discover new markets and improve their brand image in order to have a good position in international markets. Carrying out both production and logistics activities without leaving waste in nature will ensure the efficient use of company resources and increase the company's preferability in international markets. Today, with the increase of environmental destruction, countries have started to bring a green-oriented understanding of their strategic plans and policies. Thanks to the sustainability of the energy resources used, having a lower carbon footprint is important for future generations. In Turkey, it can be said that this understanding has just begun to be applied and that it should produce a policy in a more conscious way. With the introduction of alternative energy sources in Turkey, it is also ensured that the foreign trade deficit of the energy-dependent country is reduced. The country's seasonal availability has expanded its range of uses, making it easier to discover, develop, promote and use renewable energy sources. In addition, the sensitivity of consumers in this regard has started to increase. In this study, renewable energy sources and green logistics relationship were examined in Turkey and Johansen cointegration test and Toda-Yamamoto causality analysis were performed for the period 1990-2019. Johansen cointegration analysis results show a long-term cointegration relationship between variables. In the Toda-Yamamoto causality test applied, a one-way causality relationship has been determined from gross domestic product to the amount of CO2 emissions from the logistics sector. This causality relationship states that economic growth is a variable that affects the amount of carbon emissions. This study also reveals that renewable energy sources should be used in a wider area. Analyzing how it is applied to other sectors, the stages to be followed and its contribution to the economies of the country can be an inspiration for future studies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Bisphenols are endocrine-disrupting chemicals used in plastics and resins for food packaging. This study aimed to evaluate the exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol S (BPS), and bisphenol F (BPF) associated with the consumption of fresh, canned, and ready-to-eat meals and determine the effects of bisphenols on blood pressure and heart rate. Forty-eight healthy young adults were recruited for this study, and they were divided into the following three groups: fresh, canned, and ready-to-eat meal groups. Urine samples were collected 2, 4, and 6 h after meal consumption, and blood pressure and heart rate were measured. The consumption of ready-to-eat meals significantly increased urine BPA concentrations compared with canned and fresh meal consumption. No significant difference in BPS and BPF concentrations was observed between the groups. The consumption of ready-to-eat meals was associated with a significant increase in systolic blood pressure and pulse pressure and a marked decrease in diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. No significant differences were noted in blood pressure and heart rate with canned and fresh meal consumption. It can be concluded that total BPA concentration in consumed ready-to-eat meals is high. High BPA intake causes increase in urinary BPA concentrations, which may, in turn, lead to changes in some cardiovascular parameters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Subacute thyroiditis (SAT) is an inflammatory thyroid disease with a frequency is 5% among all thyroid diseases. miRNAs are endogenous, non-coding RNAs ranging in length from 19 to 25 nucleotides. They play an important role in the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the expression levels of two circulating miRNAs, MIR22 and MIR16-1, can be used as a parameter in the diagnosis and follow-up of SAT disease. Fifty patients diagnosed with SAT and 41 healthy controls were included in this study. Expression levels of miRNAs were determined by real time-PCR method. Expression data of miRNAs were calculated by fold change (2
-ΔΔCt ) method. The statistical significance of miRNA expression was evaluated by t-test. The expression levels of MIR22-3p and MIR16-1-3p were not found to be statistically different between SAT patients and controls and also between the patients in different stages (hyperthyroid, euthyroid, and hypothyroid) of the disease. According to correlation analyses, we observed a positive strong correlation between erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and the expression levels of MIR22-3p and MIR16-1-3p (r = 0.960, p = 0.000 and r = 0.865, p = 0.006, respectively), and a positive strong correlation between fT4 and the expression levels of MIR22-3p in SAT patients in euthyroid stage (r = 0.712, p = 0.047). In this study, we showed that the expression levels of MIR22-3p and MIR16-1-3p have correlation with clinical characteristics of SAT disease. Our results suggest that MIR22 and MIR16-1 may be effective in the pathogenesis of SAT. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published

Sustainable development has become a more remarkable and emphasized issue with the increasing environmental damage. The need to maintain a balance between the environment and the economy forms the basis of the understanding of sustainability. With the rapid increase in population, the increase in demand for agricultural products has accelerated the emergence of new production models. These new production models have become the focus of sustainable development. While such positive changes and developments are taking place in the world, countries rapid consumption of natural resources and damage to ecological balance represent a negative trend. Although it is a little late to understand this bad course, countries have agreed that raw materials are running out and this strategy should be abandoned. The fact that renewable resources add a positive value to the country’s economy and do not harm the nature increases their preferability. The concept of bioeconomy has begun to gain importance and be adopted at this point. This term, which advocates a knowledge-based economy, has brought biotechnological applications to the agenda. Thanks to these innovation activities, the sustainable management of biological resources and the competitiveness of the agricultural sector have been increased. In this study, the importance of the concept of bioeconomy and its application areas have been tried to be emphasized by looking at sustainable development activities from an agricultural perspective. It has been concluded that bioeconomic activities in Turkey can become more functional in the agricultural sector and that new projects should be produced in this direction., Sürdürülebilir kalkınma, çevresel tahribatların artmaya başlaması ile birlikte daha dikkat çekici ve üzerinde daha çok durulan bir konu haline gelmiştir. Çevre ve ekonomi arasında bir dengenin sağlanması gerektiği sürdürülebilirlik anlayışının temelini oluşturmaktadır. Nüfusun hızla artması ile birlikte tarım ürünlerine olan talep artışı, yeni üretim modellerinin ortaya çıkışını hızlandırmıştır. Bu yeni üretim modelleri sürdürülebilir kalkınmanın odağı haline gelmiştir. Dünyada bu gibi olumlu değişmeler ve gelişmeler yaşanırken, ülkelerin doğal kaynakları hızla tüketmesi ve ekolojik dengeye zarar vermesi olumsuz bir gidişatı temsil etmektedir. Bu kötü gidişatın anlaşılması biraz geç olsa da ülkeler hammaddelerin tükendiği ve bu stratejiden vazgeçilmesi gerektiği konusunda hemfikir olmuşlardır. Yenilenebilir kaynakların ülke ekonomisine artı bir değer kazandırması ve doğaya zarar vermemesi tercih edilebilirliğini arttırmaktadır. Biyoekonomi kavramı bu noktada önem kazanmaya ve benimsenmeye başlamıştır. Bilgi temelli bir ekonomiyi savunan bu terim biyoteknolojik uygulamaları gündeme getirmiştir. Bu inovasyon faaliyetleri sayesinde biyolojik kaynakların sürdürülebilir yönetimi ve tarım sektörünün rekabet edilebilirliği arttırılmıştır. Bu çalışmada sürdürülebilir kalkınma faaliyetlerine tarımsal açıdan bakılarak, biyoekonomi kavramının önemi ve uygulama alanları vurgulanmaya çalışılmıştır. Türkiye’de biyoekonomik faaliyetlerin tarım sektörü alanında daha işlevsel hale gelebileceği ve bu yönde yeni projelerin üretilmesi gerektiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

Purpose: Infertility is the situation in which pregnancy cannot be achieved despite unprotected sexual intercourse within at least one year. Male infertility can range from the entire absence of spermatozoa in the testicles (azoospermia) to noticeable variations in sperm quality. The patients with a mutation in the leptin (LEP) gene have been reported to be infertile and the patients with a mutation in the Leptin Receptor (LEPR) gene were shown to lack pubertal development. This study was performed to state if there is a relationship between azoospermic male infertility and LEP gene -2548G>A and LEPR gene Q223R polymorphisms. Materials and Methods: One hundred thirty-seven azoospermic infertile men and a hundred fertile men were included in this study. DNAs obtained from peripheral blood of participants were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) along with restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) technics.. Results: In terms of LEP -2548G>A (rs7799039) and LEPR Q223R (rs1137101) polymorphisms, no statistically remarkable distinction was observed in the genotype and allele distributions of azoospermic infertile and fertile men. In the composite genotype analysis, it was determined that the GGQR composite genotype was approximately 9 times more common in azoospermic infertile men than in fertile men (8.8% vs. 1.0%). Conclusion: It has been determined that LEP -2548G>A and LEPR Q223R polymorphisms may have a dual effect in azoospermic male infertility. We believe that more efficient and precise results can be obtained by conducting these studies in larger populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objectives: Our aim is to determine prevalence, severity, duration of otorhinolaryngologic symptoms related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and correlation between the test results obtained by oronasopharyngeal swab and the symptoms of these regions by evaluating differences in ear, nose, and throat (ENT) symptoms between laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 patients and clinically and computed tomography (CT)-diagnosed COVID-19 patients. Methods: The study enrolled patients with a positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test diagnosed with COVID-19 that grouped as PCR (+), and those with repeated negative PCR tests but COVID-19 Reporting and Data System (CO-RADS) chest CT findings with high (CO-RADS 5) or very high (CO-RADS 6) similarity to COVID-19 that grouped as PCR(-)/CT(+). Demographic features, general symptoms, and otorhinolaryngological symptoms and severity of disease were evaluated and compared. Results: The most common ENT symptoms in the PCR(+) group were loss of taste (n=77), loss of smell, and sore throat with respective frequencies of 34.5%, 31.8%, 26.0%, and in PCR(-) CT (+) group loss of taste, loss of smell, and sore throat with respective frequencies 24.6%, 21.1%, and 18.4%. ENT symptom rates were found higher in PCR (+) group (65.0%) according to PCR(-)/CT(+) group (49.1%) with statistically significant difference (p=0.008). Loss of smell rates were found higher in PCR (+) group according to PCR(-)/CT(+) group with statistically significant difference (p=0.037). Conclusion: Loss of smell and taste were most common ENT symptoms in laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases. The presence of COVID-19 should definitely be considered in patients presenting with sudden loss of smell or taste. In addition, loss of smell and otolaryngologic symptoms were more common in laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 according to clinically and computed tomograpy diagnosed COVID-19 cases. There can be a correlation between positive sample region and symptom region. Location of symptoms must be considered for decision of sampling location. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Bu çalışmada, elektro erozyon ile işleme (EEİ) metodu kullanılarak 400 ve 500 m çaplı, delikli dönel pirinç elektrotlar ile Ti-6Al-4V ve Inconel 718 alaşım malzemelerinden imal edilmiş iş parçaları üzerinde farklı EEİ işleme parametreleri (akım, işleme süresi, bekleme süresi) ile mikro delikler imal edilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, EEİ yöntemi kullanılarak delinen mikro deliklerde delik geometrisini incelemek, elde edilen en iyi geometrik özellikler ile en iyi geometrik özellikleri sağlayan işleme parametrelerini ve bu özellikler üzerinde en etkin işleme parametrelerini belirlemektir. Delik geometrisini incelemek amacıyla çap büyümesi, koniklik ve yüzey pürüzlülüğü ölçümleri yapılmıştır. Her iki çap ölçüsü için Ti-6Al-4V iş parçası malzemesi üzerinde imal edilen deliklerdeki çap büyümesi, koniklik ve yüzey pürüzlülüğü değerlerinin Inconel 718 malzemeye kıyasla daha düşük olduğu görülmüştür. Ti-6Al-4V malzemede elde edilen en düşük çap büyümesi: %26,93, koniklik: % 0,38, yüzey pürüzlülüğü: 2,42 µm olarak gerçekleşmiştir. Inconel 718 malzemede elde edilen en düşük çap büyümesi: %70,53, koniklik: %0,59 ve yüzey pürüzlülüğü: 2,32 µm olarak gerçekleşmiştir. Her iki iş parçasında da en düşük çap büyümesi, koniklik ve yüzey pürüzlülüğü 500 m çapta elde edilmiştir. Delik çapı küçüldükçe hem Ti-6Al-4V'den, hem de Inconel 718 alaşım malzemelerinden imal edilmiş iş parçalarında çap büyümesi, koniklik ve yüzey pürüzlülüğü değerlerinin arttığı gözlemlenmiştir. In the present work; 400 and 500 m micro holes were drilled by using electrical discharge machining (EDM) method with different machining parameters (current, pulse-on time and pulse-off time) on Ti-6Al-4V (titanium) and Inconel 718 work pieces material. Single channel, rotational brass electrodes were used to drill micro holes. The objective of this study is to investigate the geometric properties of micro holes drilled by using EDM method; specify the best geometric properties obtained, the machining parameters to achieve these properties and the most effecting machining parameters on each geometric property. For these purposes, overcut, taper and surface roughness were measured on each experiments. Overcut, taper and surface roughness values are lower on Ti-6Al-4V rather than Inconel 718. For Ti-6Al-4V work piece material, minimum overcut ratio: 26,93%, taper: 0,38%, surface roughness: 2,42µm. For Inconel 718 work piece material, minimum overcut ratio: 70,53%, taper: 0,59%, surface roughness: 2,32µm. For both work pieces, lower overcut, taper and surface roughness values were achieved on 500 m holes. The smaller the diameter of the holes, the lower the overcut, taper and surface roughness values. 109

Pontuslu Evagrius dördüncü yüzyılda yaşamış olan bir asketiktir. Bir asketik olmasının yanı sıra teorisyen ve üretken bir yazardır. Platonculuk ile Origen'in öğretilerini mecz etmesiyle Hıristiyan asketizminin zemini hazırlamıştır. Evagrius Kudüs'te tanıştığı Melania'nın teşvikiyle asketik hayata adım atmıştır. Mısır çölüne giderek burada acemi münzevilere rehberlik edip asketizmin önde gelen isimlerinden olmuştur. Her ne kadar Origen'i göremese de öğretilerini en iyi anlayan ve öğretilerine işleyen kişi Evagrius olmuştur. Evagrius Origen öğretileri doğrultusunda doktrinlerini geliştirmiş. Bundan dolayı da kınanmış ve eserleri yok edilmiş ya da başka isimler altında tanınmıştır. Eserlerinde logismoi'ye (düşünceler) karşı verilmesi gereken mücadele ön plandadır. Evagrius ilerleyen zamanlarda yedi büyük günah olarak tanınacak olan bu düşüncelerin teorisyenidir. Bunun yanında Evagrius münzevi psikolojisi, kozmoloji ve eskatolojiye dair eserleri olan çok yönlü bir yazardır. Çalışmamızın amacı Pontuslu Evagrius'un asketizm anlayışını ortaya koymaktır. Evagrius'un asketizm anlayışı praktike ve gnostike olarak iki yönlüdür ve konu oldukça geniştir. Bu yüzden tezde praktike kısmı ele alınmıştır. Evagrius of Pontus is an ascetic who has lived in the fourth century. Besides being an ascetic, he is a theoretician and a prolific writer. By integration of the teachings of Origen with Platonism, he laid the groundwork for Christian asceticism.Evagrius stepped into the ascetic life with the encouragement of Melania whom he met in Jerusalem. He went to the Egyptian desert to guide the novice hermit and became one of the leading names of asceticism. Although he did not meet Origen in person, Evagrius is the person who understood and taught his teachings the best. Evagrius developed his doctrines in accordance with the teachings of Origen. Therefore he was condemned and his work destroyed or recognized under other names.In his works, the struggle against logismoi (thought) is at the central. Evagrius is the theoretician of these thoughts, which will be later known as the `Seven Great Sins`. In addition, Evagrius is a versatile writer with works on hermit psychology, cosmology and eschatology.The purpose of this study is to revealdoctrine of asceticism of Evagrius of Ponticus. Evagrius's doctirne of asceticism is divided into two parts as practike an gnostike and the subject is quite extensive. There fore in the thesis the practical part is discussed. 143

Günümüzde işletmelerde dış müşteri kadar iç müşteri (çalışan) memnuniyeti de ön plana çıkmıştır. Çalışanların motivasyonlarının sağlanmasında çeşitli araçlar kullanılmaktadır. Bu araçların çalışan motivasyonunu nasıl ve ne derece etkilediği merak edilen konuların başında gelmektedir. Araştırmanın amacı işletmelerde ücret yönetimi uygulamalarının motivasyona etkisinin incelenmesi olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda araştırmada olasılıksız örnekleme yöntemleri arasında yer alan uygun örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmaya küçük ve orta ölçekli işletmelerde görev alan eleman (n=275), uzman (n=55), müdür yardımcısı (n=16), müdür (n=10) ve genel müdür yardımcısı ve üstü (n=7) çalışan bireyler katılmıştır. Katılımcılar 122'si Erkek, 241'i Kadın olmak üzere toplam 363 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Araştırma sonucunda maddi koşulların küçük yaş grupları için daha fazla motive edici olduğu, bekar çalışanların maddi faktörlere, eğitim ve gelişim olanaklarına daha fazla önem verdikleri, düşük eğitim düzeyine sahip bireyler için ise bu faktörler daha önemli bir motivasyon kaynağı olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca çalışanların belirli düzeyde bir maddi gelir ve yaşam standardı elde ettiği için gelecek ile ilgili özelliklerin daha fazla ön plana çıkmaya çalıştığı, çalışma süresi arttıkça bireylerin motivasyonları üzerinde başarı duygusu gibi psikolojik faktörlerin öneminin arttığını, kurumda uzun süredir çalışan bireyler üzerinde işi severek yapmanın motive edici etkisinin ortadan kalktığı ve daha az süredir çalışan bireyler için ise daha fazla motive edici özelliğe sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Diğer yandan ilk işinde çalışan bireyler için işi sevmek, amirden övgü almak ve çalışma garantisi önemli bir motivasyon faktörü olarak göze çarparken iş arkadaşı ve yöneticileri ilgili olması motive edici bir faktör olmadığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.Anahtar Kelimeler: Motivasyon, İnsan kaynakları yönetimi, Ücret, Ücret yönetimi EVALUATION OF FACTORS WHICH INFLUENCE MOTIVATION IN MANAGEMENTS: KONYA PROVINCE SAMPLEEKİCİ, MerveMaster of Business AdministrationSupervisor: Faculty Member, PhD Birol Büyükdoğan July 2019Today, internal customer (employee) satisfaction has come to the fore as well as external customer satisafaction in enterprises. Various tools are used to ensure the motivation of the employees. One of the most interested topics is that, how and to what extent these tools affect employee motivation.The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of wage management practices on motivation in enterprises. For this purpose, appropriate sampling method, which is among the improbable sampling methods, was used in the research. Staff (n=275), experts (n=55), deputy managers (n=16), managers (n=10) and deputy general managers and senior employees (n=7) working in small and medium sized enterprises (SME) participated in the study. Participants consisted of 363 people, 122 of whom are male and 241 of whom are female. As a result of the research, it was seen that financial conditions are more motivating for younger age groups, single employees give more importance to financial factors, education and development opportunities, and these factors are more important source of motivation for individuals with low education level. In addition it has been seen that, because of the access of employees to a certain level of financial income and living standards, the characteristics of the future are trying to come to the forefront, the psychological factors such as the feeling of success on the motivation of the individuals increase as the working time increases, the motivating effect of working on the individuals has not observed for the staff who work for a long time in the institution less than the individuals who have been working since less time. On the other hand, for the individuals working in their first job, doing the job fondly, getting praise from the supervisor and guarantee of work are important motivation factors, while it is concluded that the relationship between colleagues and managers is not a motivating factor.

Bu çalışmada, ilkokul düzeyi çocuk kitaplarında yer verilen engellilerin; engel türleri, günlük hayatta karşılaştıkları sorunlar, sorun çözme biçimleri, çocuk kitaplarının içerik özellikleri (dil ve anlatım, karakterler, kurgu/olay örgüsü, zaman-mekan, tema, planlama) ve yazarın bakış açısı kapsamında nasıl temsil edildiğini ortaya çıkarmak amaçlanmaktadır. Araştırmanın çalışma materyalini, kitabevlerinin ve dijital ortamların taranması sonucu, engelli karakteri yapısında bulunduran, ilkokul düzeyine hitap eden 26 çocuk kitabı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada, nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden doküman incelemesiyle toplanan veriler betimsel analiz tekniğiyle analiz edilmiştir. Seçilen çocuk kitapları uzman görüşleri doğrultusunda geliştirilen `kitap inceleme formu` ile ayrıntılı olarak incelenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, çocuk kitaplarında en sık rastlanan engel türünün ortopedik yetersizlik ve süreğen hastalık olduğu görülmüştür. Engelli karakterlerin en sık karşılaştıkları sorunlar arasında muhtaç olma, ulaşım ve iletişim sorunları yer almaktadır. Bir diğer sonuç ise; engelli karakterlerin, sorunlarını uzman desteğiyle çözmeleridir. Engelli karakterlerin içsel motivasyonları ve kendini kabul etmeleri, morallerinin yüksek olması sorunları daha kolay çözmelerini desteklemektedir. Çoğunlukla dilin olumsuz kullanımı, toplum tarafından kabul edilebilecek karakterlere yer verilmesi, engelli karakterlere ait umut duygusu, olumlu aile ilişkileri, olayın mutlu sonlandırılması araştırmanın içerik özellikleriyle ilgili dikkat çeken sonuçlarındandır. İncelenen kitapların tamamında yazar otoriter bir dil kullanmamış, düşünce ve olaylar belli bir düzen içerisinde sistematik olarak okuyuculara aktarılmıştır. This study aims to find out how children with disabilities in elementary school level children's books are represented within the scope of the types of disabilities, the problems they face in their everyday life, their problem-solving styles, the content features of children's book (language and expression, characters, fiction/plot, time-space, theme, planning), and the author's perspective. Research material of the study consists of 26 children's book containing children with disabilities, which address to elementary school level children as a result of scanning both bookstores and digital media. In this research, data collected through document analysis from qualitative research methods were analyzed with descriptive analysis technique. The selected children's books were examined in detail with `book review form` developed in accordance with expert's opinions. At the end of the research, it was observed that orthopedic insufficiency and clinic illness were the most common types of disabilities in children's books. The problems faced by the disabled characters are the problems of being in need, transportation and communication problems. Another result is that they solve their problems with expert support. The intrinsic motivations and self-acceptance of disabled characters, and their high morale support their problems to be solved more easily. Negative use of the language, the presence of characters that can be accepted by the society, the sense of hope for the disabled characters, positive family relations, happy ending of the story are remarkable results regarding the content of the research. In all of the books examined, the author did not use self-righteous or authoritarian language, and thoughts and events were systematically conveyed to readers in a certain order. 152

KILINC, FATMA/0000-0001-8297-958X WOS: 000446210800020 Objective: This study was conducted to determine obesity, stunting and nutritional habits in children and adolescents with disabilities. Methods: The study was carried out in 612 disabled children and adolescents in a 2-19 age group enrolled in 8 special education practice and rehabilitation institutions in Kirikkale city center in Turkey. The general characteristics and eating habits of the participants were examined and body mass indexes (BMI) were calculated (n=527) to determine obesity and stunting. Results: Of the participants (n=612), 39.2% were female and 60.8% were male, of whom 39.4% were mentally disabled, 37.1% were physically disabled, 12.3% were mentally and physically disabled, and 11.3% were suffering other types of disabilities (speech disorders, learning disability, etc.). Of the participants (n=527), 18.8% were overweight and 17.8% were obese. The rate of overweight (Male:18.5%, Female:19.2%) and obesity (Male:19.1%, Female:15.9%) was higher in males compared to females (p>0.05). The correlation between BMI classification and disability type, disability level, and income level was not statistically significant (p>0.05). The rate of stunting was 24.5%, which was lower in males compared to females (Male: 20.4%, Female: 30.8%) (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between height-for-age classifications and the type of disability (p>0.05); however, the difference between disability level and income level was significant (p

ÖZET Giriş: Parkinson hastalığı (PH), esansiyel tremordan sonra en sık görülen hareket bozukluğu ve Alzheimer hastalığından sonra görülen ikinci en yaygın nörodejeneratif hastalıktır. Ana motor semptomlar; istirahat tremoru, rijidite, bradikinezi ve postural instabiliteyi içermektedir. Ancak hastalığın non-motor komplikasyonları da oldukça önemlidir. Otonomik disfonksiyon PH'nın en yaygın non-motor özelliklerinden biridir. Hastalığın ileri evrelerinde olabileceği gibi her evresinde görülebilir. Otonomik disfonksiyon PH'da ciddi mortalite ve morbidite nedenidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı; Parkinson hastalarında oluşabilecek otonom disfonksiyonu, hafif, orta, ağır Parkinson hastaları arasında karşılaştırarak, PH şiddeti ve sağlıkla ilişkili yaşam kalitesi üzerine etkilerini gösterebilmektir.Yöntemler: Çalışmamıza 2016-2017 yılları arasında Ufuk Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Nöroloji polikliniği tarafından takip edilen 40 yaş üzerindeki PH tanısını almış, dışlanma kriterlerinden herhangi birini taşımayan, çalışmayı kabul eden 47 hasta alındı. Hastalığın evrelendirmesi Hoehn-Yahr skalası ile yapıldı. Klinik ciddiyet derecesi ise Birleşik Parkinson Hastalığı Değerlendirme Ölçeği (BPHDÖ) ile değerlendirildi. Çalışmaya alınan her hastaya kardiyak fonksiyonları değerlendirmek amacıyla ekokardiyografi tetkiki yapıldı. Hastaların 24 saatlik Holter elektrokardiyografi kayıtları alındı. Zaman ilişkili kalp hızı değişkenliği parametreleri hesaplandı. Sempatik deri yanıtı (SDY); çalışmaya katılan tüm hastalarda, EMG cihazı ile kaydedildi. Hastalarda yaşam kalitesi ve sağlık problemlerinin standardize ölçümünü sağlamak için geliştirilen Nottingham Sağlık Profili (NSP) kullanıldı. Hastalar Hoehn-Yahr skalasına göre hafif(evre 1-2), orta (evre 3) ve ciddi(evre 4-5) olmak üzere üç gruba ayrıldı. Kruskal-Wallis analizine göre üç grup arasında karşılaştırmalar yapıldı. Bulgular: Parkinson yılı arttıkça, hastalığın ciddiyeti istatistiksel olarak artıyordu (p=0.011). Çalışma popülasyonunun tümünde transtorasik ekokardiyografi ile ölçülen ejeksiyon fraksiyonu (EF) değeri normal olmakla birlikte, hastalığın ilerlemesi ile EF değerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı azalma izlendi (p=0.040). Hastalığın ciddiyeti arttıkça, kalp hızı değişkenliği parametrelerinde, başta SDNN olmak üzere genel olarak trend bazında azalma izlendi (p=0.052).NSP toplam ve alt birim puanları da hastalığın ilerlemesi ile artış göstermekteydi.(p

- Abstract
Objectives: Our aim is to determine prevalence, severity, duration of otorhinolaryngologic symptoms related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and correlation between the test results obtained by oronasopharyngeal swab and the symptoms of these regions by evaluating differences in ear, nose, and throat (ENT) symptoms between laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 patients and clinically and computed tomography (CT)-diagnosed COVID-19 patients., Methods: The study enrolled patients with a positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test diagnosed with COVID-19 that grouped as PCR (+), and those with repeated negative PCR tests but COVID-19 Reporting and Data System (CO-RADS) chest CT findings with high (CO-RADS 5) or very high (CO-RADS 6) similarity to COVID-19 that grouped as PCR(-)/CT(+). Demographic features, general symptoms, and otorhinolaryngological symptoms and severity of disease were evaluated and compared., Results: The most common ENT symptoms in the PCR(+) group were loss of taste (n=77), loss of smell, and sore throat with respective frequencies of 34.5%, 31.8%, 26.0%, and in PCR(-) CT (+) group loss of taste, loss of smell, and sore throat with respective frequencies 24.6%, 21.1%, and 18.4%. ENT symptom rates were found higher in PCR (+) group (65.0%) according to PCR(-)/CT(+) group (49.1%) with statistically significant difference (p=0.008). Loss of smell rates were found higher in PCR (+) group according to PCR(-)/CT(+) group with statistically significant difference (p=0.037)., Conclusion: Loss of smell and taste were most common ENT symptoms in laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases. The presence of COVID-19 should definitely be considered in patients presenting with sudden loss of smell or taste. In addition, loss of smell and otolaryngologic symptoms were more common in laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 according to clinically and computed tomograpy diagnosed COVID-19 cases. There can be a correlation between positive sample region and symptom region. Location of symptoms must be considered for decision of sampling location., Competing Interests: None declared., (© Copyright 2022 by The Medical Bulletin of Sisli Etfal Hospital.)

- Abstract
Objectives: Adenotonsillectomy is one of most common surgeries performed in childhood. Post-operative pain associated particularly with tonsillectomy is still a problem for many physicians. Despite advances in surgical techniques, analgesics, or anti-inflammatory drugs, no unique strategy for post-tonsillectomy pain management has been suggested. The aim of this study is to investigate the analgesic effect of steroid containing nasal spray applied to tonsillar region after tonsillectomy., Methods: Eighty-two patients were assigned into two groups as study and control. In study group, nasal spray containing steroid was applied to each tonsillar region after surgery for 5 days. Post-operative pain of all patients was assessed using a visual analog scale and results were compared., Results: Pain decreased gradually over time in both the study and control groups. Although the pain scores from 4 h post-surgery to post-operative day 5 were not found to significantly decrease in children that used nasal spray containing steroid, these patients developed less pain on post-operative day 5,with statistical significance (p<0.05)., Conclusion: Post-tonsillectomy pain was reported to increase around post-operative day 5, which coincides with the time of intense wound inflammation. Therefore, significant pain reduction on post-operative day 5 observed in children that used nasal spray with steroid may have clinical importance for overcoming this problem., Competing Interests: Conflict of Interest: None declared., (Copyright: © 2021 by The Medical Bulletin of Sisli Etfal Hospital.)

- Abstract
Objectives: General anesthesia is preferred in most otorhinolaryngologic surgeries. The aim of the present study was to evaluate upper airway complications secondary to intubation including sore throat, cough, dysphonia, and dysphagia considering endotracheal tube (ET) cuff pressure, tube diameter, and duration of intubation., Methods: After the assignment of 67 patients to the study and control groups, ET cuff pressure was adjusted to be between 20 and 30 cm H
2 O using a cuff pressure manometer in the study group. In the control group, the cuff pressure was decided by the anesthesiologist using the conventional palpation method. Sore throat, cough, dysphonia, and dysphagia were compared between the groups at 4, 8, and 24 h postoperatively., Results: Cuff pressure was significantly higher in the control group than in the study group. In the control group, sore throat was more frequently observed at 4, 8, and 24 h, whereas in the study group, cough and dysphonia were more often observed at 4 and 8 h. At 4 and 8 h, cough was found to be related to the duration of intubation., Conclusion: Arrangement of cuff pressure using a cuff manometer is suggested to decrease complications of the upper airway secondary to intubation because of the higher rate of these complaints in patients whose cuff pressure is arranged by the conventional palpation method., Competing Interests: Conflict of Interest: None declared., (Copyright: © 2018 by The Medical Bulletin of Sisli Etfal Hospital.)- Published
