This study was carried out to investigate the effects of 5 different doses of potassium (0, 15, 20, 25 and 30 kg da-1) on some yield and important yield components on 6 different dry bean genotypes of bean [Phaseolus vulgaris L.] in Yunak Town – Konya City (TURKIYE) ecological conditions. was made in 2018. The aforementioned research was designed with 3 replications based on "Split Plots in Randomized Blocks Trial Design". According to the results of the research, it has been determined that potassium applications at different doses are statistically significant in terms of emergence time, flowering time, pod setting time, and vegetation period. As a result of the research; the emergence period was 6.33 – 15.67 days, the flowering period 32.00 – 71.67 days, the pod setting time 48.67 – 88.00 days, the vegetation period 84.67 – 118.00 days, the spad value 41.57 – 53.87 spad, number of main branches per plant 2.90 – 5.00, first pod height 9.40 – 18.40 cm, root neck diameter of 4.97 – 31.50 mm, the number of pods per plant varied between 13.30 – 42.00, the number of seeds per pod varied between 3.20 – 5.67 values. When evaluated in general, emergence time, flowering time, pod setting time increased with increasing potassium application, while vegetation time, and first pod height (maximum value at 15 kg da-1 dose) values decreased. In the study, all of the shortest duration values in terms of all phonological observations emerged in the Akkiraz genotype, which was applied at a fertilizer dose of 15 kg da-1. The highest value for the first pod height was determined in the 25 kg da-1 fertilizer dose X Nirvana genotype, the highest pod number value in the 20 kg da-1 fertilizer dose X Nirvana genotype, the highest seed number value in 15 kg da-1 fertilizer dose X Nirvana genotype. For the consistency of the research findings, it can be said that longer-term studies and evaluation of different genotypes in different ecologies are required.

Present study was conducted to determine the effects of potassium doses applied to mung bean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] genotypes on seed yield and important yield components. Field trial was carried out in 2020 in the Prof. Dr. Abdülkadir AKÇİN experimental fields belongs to Faculty of Agriculture located in Alaaddin Keykubat Campus. The study consisted of a total of 45 plots with 3 replications by applying 5 potassium doses (0,10,20,30,40 kg/da K2SO4) on 3 mung bean genotypes (Ermenek, Turkmenistan, Aşağıçağlar) and was planned according to the Factorial Trial Design in Random Blocks. According to the results of the analysis of variance, the difference between genotypes was statistically significant in terms of seed yield, while the difference between potassium doses was statistically significant in terms of protein content. According to the results of the research, the highest seed yield was obtained from the Aşağıçağlar genotype with 20.57 g/plant as the average of the potassium doses, and the plots that were applied 20 kg/da of potassium (18.16 g/plant) as the average of the genotypes. Smiliarly, the highest protein content was obtained from the Ermenek genotype (25.18%) and from the plots (25.47%) treated with 10 kg/da potassium. As an average of potassium doses, the Aşağıçağlar genotype came to the forefront in terms of important yield factors such as thousand seed weight (69.13 g), plant height (54.52 cm) and first pod height (26.09 cm).

The main principles of safety risk reduction are elimination, substitution, and engineering controls. Hazardous conditions, safe work practices, and other forms of managerial controls should be provided for a safe work environment. For this reason, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is inevitable for employees. PPE can help mitigate accidents and injuries associated with hazardous materials or other potentially unsafe working conditions. Thus, the selection of a suitable PPE is a significant step in a safe working environment. PPE selection process is complex and involves multiple criteria decision making since several parameters affect PPE selection. In this study, factors affecting PPE selection were determined as Safety Features, Comfort and Efficiency, Design Principles, and Customer Support. In the present study, a systematic methodology to select an appropriate PPE was performed using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results indicate that Safety Features main criterion is the most significant factor, followed by Comfort and Efficiency, Design Principles, and Customer Support main criteria, respectively.

Madencilikte karşılaşılan en önemli meslek hastalıklarından biri gürültüye bağlı işitme kaybıdır (GBİK). Bu çalışmada, Türkiye'deki bir açık ocak linyit madeninde GBİK'nın incelenmesine yönelik analizler yapılmıştır. GBİK madencilerin yaşı, deneyimi, mesleği, maruz kalma değeri (Lex) ve maksimum gürültü seviyesi (Lpeak) dikkate alınarak değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışanların maruz kaldıkları gürültü seviyeleri gürültü dozimetreleri ile ölçülmüş ve çalışanlara özel işitme merkezi tarafından işitme testi uygulanmıştır. GBİK'da etkili olabilecek parametreleri belirlemek için elde edilen verilerin tamamı lojistik regresyon analizi (LRA) ve hiyerarşik log-lineer analiz (HLA) yöntemleri ile değerlendirilmiştir. Saha personelinin GBİK olasılığının operatörlere ve sürücülere göre yaklaşık 6 kat daha fazla olduğu belirlenmiştir. 21-29 yaş grubuna göre 57-65 ve 48-56 yaş grubunda GBİK olasılığının sırasıyla 11,4 ve 4,41 kat daha fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir. İşitme kaybında deneyim ve maksimum gürültü seviyesi en önemli parametreler olarak bulunmuştur. Bunların yanı sıra yaş×deneyim, meslek×maksimum gürültü düzeyleri ve meslek×ortalama gürültüye maruz kalma düzeylerinin etkileşimlerinin GBİK olasılığını artırdığı belirlenmiştir. Çalışanların GBİK tahmini için bir lojistik regresyon modeli geliştirilmiş ve işitme kaybının en çok sahada çalışanlar için sorun olduğu tespit edilmiştir. İşitme kaybının yaş ve tecrübe ile arttığı ve meslek gruplarına göre farklılık gösterdiği belirlenmiştir., One of the most important occupational diseases encountered in mining is the noise induced hearing loss (NIHL). In this study, analyses were carried out to examine the NIHL in the open pit lignite mine in Turkey. The NIHL was evaluated in accordance with the miners’ age, experience, occupation, exposure value (Lex), and maximum noise level (Lpeak). Noise levels exposed the employees were measured with noise dosimeters and a hearing test was applied to the employees by a special hearing center. To determine the parameters that could be effective in NIHL, all of the obtained data were evaluated by the logistic regression analysis (LRA) and hierarchical log-linear analysis (HLA) methods. It was determined that the NIHL probability of field staff is approximately 6 times higher than operators and drivers. According to the 21-29 age group, it was found that the probability of NIHL in the 57-65 and in the 48-56 age group was 11.4 and 4.41 times higher, respectively. Experience and maximum noise levels were found to be the most important parameters in hearing loss. Besides these, it was determined that the interactions of age×experience, occupation×maximum noise levels, and occupation×average noise exposure levels increased the likelihood of NIHL. A logistic regression model has been developed for the NIHL estimation of employees and hearing loss was found to be a problem mostly for those working in the field. It was determined that hearing loss increased with age and experience, and varied according to occupational groups.

Objective: The aim of the study is to determine which bacteria are the causative agents and the antibiotic resistance rates in the respiratory tract secretions of patients who have diagnosed with COVID-19 and to compare these results with before the pandemic. Method: This study is a retrospective study comparing bacteria grown in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and endotracheal aspirate(ETA) fluids coming from adult clinical services and intensive care units and their antibiotic resistance profiles between January 2019 and December 2019 before the pandemic, with the results between January 2020 and December 2020 during the pandemic period. Results: A total of 900 culture results were examined in 2019; Acinetobacter baumannii was detected in 36%, Klebsiella pneumoniae in 23%, Pseudomonas aeruginosa in 14%, and Staphylococcus aureus in 8%. In 2020, during the pandemic, 660 culture results were examined, and same bacteria was detected in 43%, 23%,16% and 5%, respectively. K.pneumoniae's 3rd generation cephalosporin resistance, A. baumannii's resistance to tigecycline, gentamycin, tobramycin and P. aeruginosa's resistance to ceftazidime were found to have increased significantly during the pandemic compared to the pre-pandemic period. Conclusion: In hospitalized patients with COVID-19, secondary bacterial agents are mostly multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. For this reason,in patients with COVID-19 disease, appropriate empirical treatment should be selected by knowing the local bacterial agents and antibiotic resistance profiles.

In deaths considered not to arise from natural causes, the physician participating in the forensic death examination is asked to determine the possible time of death by evaluating the injuries on the body and post-mortem findings that have emerged on the corpse, and to give an opinion about the most likely cause of death. These examinations, which should primarily be performed by a forensic medicine specialist, are also conducted by physicians working in primary health care. In this study, we have aimed to develop a standardized form that we think will be a guide to provide convenience to physicians participating in forensic death examination.While creating the post-mortem forensic examination form presented in this study, the general forensic examination reporting form recommended to be used in today’s daily medical practice was taken as the sample. The form consisted of sections related to “determinants of medical identity”, “post-mortem findings”, “injury-related lesions”, “probable cause of death according to findings in the examination” and “decision made”. Body diagrams were added to mark the locations of the lesions on the corpse.Certain standardization is achieved in the reports issued by the physician in forensic cases with the preparation of general forensic examination reporting forms. However, there is no standardized form used for forensic post-mortem examination in our country. As the time between postmortem examination and forensic autopsy increases, post-mortem findings on the corpse may change. Therefore, the findings observed during forensic post-mortem examinations should be accurately defined and recorded. Lacks or mistakes made during this process may cause critical problems in the functioning of the justice system.We anticipate that the deficiencies in the post-mortem forensic examination process can be reduced by using this form, which has been shaped into a conformation suitable for the needs of physicians participating in a post-mortem examination.

Background Spontaneous combustion of coal is one of the factors which causes direct or indirect gas and dust explosion, mine fire, the release of toxic gases, loss of reserve, and loss of miners' life. To avoid these incidents, the prediction of spontaneous combustion is essential. The safety of miner's in the mining field can be assured if the prediction of a coal fire is carried out at an early stage. Method Adularya Underground Coal Mine which is fully mechanized with longwall mining method was selected as a case study area. The data collected for 2017, by sensors from ten gas monitoring stations were used for the simulation and prediction of a coal fire. In this study, the fuzzy logic model is used because of the uncertainties, nonlinearity, and imprecise variables in the data. For coal fire prediction, CO, O2, N2, and temperature were used as input variables whereas fire intensity was considered as the output variable.The simulation of the model is carried out using the Mamdani inference system and run by the Fuzzy Logic Toolbox in MATLAB. Results The results showed that the fuzzy logic system is more reliable in predicting fire intensity with respect to uncertainties and nonlinearities of the data. It also indicates that the 1409 and 610/2B gas station points have a greater chance of causing spontaneous combustion and therefore require a precautional measure. Conclusion The fuzzy logic model shows higher probability in predicting fire intensity with the simultaneous application of many variables compared with Graham's index.

Education is responsible to satisfy and develop, taking both physical and spiritual needs of people. Education is aprocess which starts before birth, forms in family, shapes in school and continues throughout life. The formation of a healty understanding of religion is possible with family life, behaviour and love. Love is the key element for children which makes them closer to the god belief and also also need to acquire in proper time. A child who grows in a family which dominated by love is successfull in all aspects of adulthood, peacefull in social and religious life. If our children can not win a behaviour in proper time, they can have life-long problems, even they can have anti-religious attitude. The language used in family, school and environment is also important. It is known that stories and religion language plays an affective role for formation and development of faith. Stories and fairy tales can be seriosly affective of explaining religious issues. The first thing we have to do is, to teach love by applying, organize the language which we use according to development characteristics of chidren and be sure that the concept which we use is understandable for them. We have enugh material to use for this issues in our religious and national culture. The most important issue in the religious education of children is the words and behaviours of adults must be compatible and examplry. It will be helpful to look from a “child – eye” all the activities for the kids, offer the religion as “child’s religion” and use and understandable religion language.

Coal mines have sudden, usually unexpected expulsions of gas in conjunction with coal into the mine workings. The gas is mainly consisted of methane making this so-called coal and gas outburst a major hazard affecting the safety and productivity of an underground coal mine. Several parameters affect this outburst hazard. In this study, a statistical method namely structural equation modeling (SEM) was applied to identify the relationships between the parameters affecting the coal and gas outbursts for an underground coal mine in Turkey and to analyze multiple interactions between them. The model includes main factors (mining depth, coal seam gas content and moisture content) and contributor factors (seam thickness, seam inclination and distance from fault). The results indicate that mining depth is the most efficient factor in main factors and distance from fault is the most significant contributor to outburst.

Dust-related occupational diseases are common in the mining sector. It is important to identify employees who have high potential for these diseases and to investigate the factors affecting disease formation. For this reason, dust and dust-related occupational diseases should be carefully investigated in mining operations. In this study, dust-related occupational diseases in an open-pit lignite mine were investigated. Firstly, dust measurements were performed and then a health check of all employees was implemented. The obtained data set was categorized by taking into account the occupation, age, experience and level of dust exposure of the employees. While the logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the probability of the diseases, a hierarchical loglinear model was established to investigate the factors in the occurrence of these diseases for those employees with the diseases. Therefore, the most important factors for the development of the diseases were determined by the hierarchical loglinear model.

Today, countries implement policies and programs for childhood obesity. However, the effect of classroom teachers in preventing obesity is in a position to be a role model for students. Therefore, the awareness of the pre-service classroom teachers about nutrition and their nutritional behaviors have an important place on the students. On the other hand, a regular and correct nutrition behavior that the teacher candidates who are trained in the primary school teaching program will receive can gain this behavior to the students they will teach. In addition, there is a balanced and regular eating habit in the physical activity and nutrition section of the Physical Education and Play Lesson Curriculum in primary schools. In this study, it was aimed to examine the dietary habits of primary school teacher candidates. For this purpose, the questionnaire revealing the eating habits was applied to the primary school teacher candidates. In the analysis of the data, percentage and frequency tests were performed with the SPSS program. In the research results; it was discovered that most of the primary school teacher candidates did not receive nutrition education, did not have alcohol and smoking habits, and did not engage in any sports activities. It has been stated that almost all of the primary school teacher candidates have the habit of breakfast, but they skip meals, and the most skipped meal is lunch. They stated that the reason for skipping meals was that they did not have the opportunity. It was seen that the majority of the participants consume less than two liters of water per day and less than five cups of tea/coffee per day. As a result of the study, it was determined that the primary school teacher candidates’ nutritional habits and knowledge levels were deficient.

Preschool education is a period in which most of the characteristics features, abilities of a child are shaped. Therefore, conscious and guiding teachers and adults have important duties. Religious education is required in preschool as well as other knowledge and skills. Religious and moral education that will be given by taking into account the characteristics of the childhood period and using methods and techniques that they can understand will be able to contribute to them throughout their future life. The important point here is that such an education should be based on pedagogy and given together with the data of other branches of science in this direction. Beyza Bilgin is the founder of the scientific field of religious education in our country. She is also the first scientist to address pre-school religious education in a scientific framework. In our study, Prof. Dr. Bilgin who placed the religious and moral education of pre-school children in our country on pedagogical foundations, determined the methods and techniques, explained like the story and tale narrative technique should be used in this education and explained how to use it with examples. We aimed to reveal Beyza Bilgin's views on the subject, based on her books, articles and papers. In our study, Beyza Bilgin's views on children's religious education, how the subject is scientifically based and what are the methods that can be used? We have tried to find answers to your questions. This literature review is especially important as it reflects her views on religious education of preschool children.

Commercial grain-loaded cartridges for shotguns have been recently associated with injuries and fatalities. These cartridges are generally used as a scare gun for large animals, with a little probability of causing harm. Almost all grain-loaded cartridges contain one type of cereal grain, such as bulgur wheat, wheat or vetch seed, instead of lead pellets. Our study aimed to investigate the shot range estimation of grain-loaded cartridges and assess the variations from conventional lead pellet cartridges. In this study, eight different brands of grain-loaded cartridges were used. The inspections and measurements were made with cartridges that contain cereal grains, gunpowder and wads. Shots were made from 50, 100, 200, 300, 500 cm with modified and improved cylinder chokes. Diameter of grain distribution patterns on targets were measured. These measurements were evaluated statistically considering brand, choke and distance variables. Both satellite entry holes and central entry holes were detected in all shots that were fired from 50 cm distance. The smallest average diameter of grain distribution pattern between 8 different brands were measured as 14.3, 38.3, 58.5 and 83.4 cm for 100, 200, 300 and 500 cm respectively with modified choke. Gathered data from this study was compared with the studies conducted with conventional cartridges and differences were determined. It was detected that the grain-loaded cartridges showed much wider distribution on targets at the same shooting distance with the same and similar barrel lengths and choke values compared to conventional lead pellet containing cartridges.
