Published: November 2024

Deliberation and democracy are two things that cannot be separated, because deliberation is the foundation of democracy itself. Without deliberation, a country that upholds democratic values ​​will not function. As stated in the Koran and also the fourth principle of Indonesia's foundation, namely Pancasila. In the deliberation process, dialogue occurs between one and another without making decisions personally, the voice of the people is also included, resulting in joint decisions, not individualistic ones. As exemplified by the Prophet Muhammad SAW, he was not rash in making decisions, but he always invited his friends to deliberation and consensus to listen to suggestions and input from his friends, so as to produce joint decisions, not rash and individual. As with democracy, in the election of people's representatives a general election is held so that a joint decision is made. Democracy is a system of government while deliberation is a working system in it. Therefore, we need to know that deliberation and democracy cannot be separated because they are interrelated.

Generations of Protest: Chile’s Students and the Fight for Democracy, 1975-2016
Authors: O'Brien Thomas V. , Carvalho Ricardo Souza de
Published: December 2024

This article outlines seven waves of youth protest that unfolded in Chile from the 1970s-2016. Secondary and university students protested against the brutal military dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet, challenging his carefully-crafted neoliberal education system, which continues into the present. In demanding a robust system of public schooling and rejecting the commodification of education, Chilean youth have advanced both a strategy and message to reverse market-based schooling. The study finds that each wave of protest articulated more clearly how the structure of Chile’s educational system impacted the nation’s general welfare. We conclude that despite neoliberalism’s deep roots, students’ actions and explanations of education for the public good have impacted education policy and brought about structural alternatives

Vaginitis is a common condition that affects women; it is an inflammation of the vagina, an infection that creates abnormal discharge followed by irritations and itching. Being aware of the etiology and epidemiology of vaginitis is very crucial for successful diagnosis, treatment, and public health intervention. These are the three most common types of infections responsible for vaginitis-bacterial vaginosis, vulvovaginal candidiasis, and trichomoniasis. Therefore, this review of literature tries to consolidate findings of research already done on vaginitis epidemiology, pinpoints areas where more research might be needed due to lack of information.

Yapay zekâ, bilgisayar sistemlerinin insan zekâsı gerektiren görevleri yerine getirme kapasitesini ifade etmektedir ve günümüzde birçok sektörde önemli rol oynamaktadır. Bu teknolojiler arasında makine öğrenimi, derin öğrenme, kural tabanlı sistemler, doğal dil işleme ve konuşma tanıma gibi alanlar yer almaktadır. Sağlıkta yapay zekâ uygulamaları 1970 yıllarından itibaren ön plana çıkmış olup tanı, tedavi, sağlık yönetimi, erken teşhis, karar verme, yaşlı bakımı, sağlığın korunması, kadın çocuk sağlığı, obstetrik ve eğitim alanlarında kullanılmaktadır. Sağlıkta eğitim alanında gelişmeye devam eden yapay zekâ; kişiselleştirilmiş öğrenme deneyimlerinin geliştirilmesinde, sanal ve artırılmış gerçeklik destekli uygulamalarla öğrencilerin karmaşık durumlara hazırlıklı hale gelmesini sağlayabilmektedir. Bununla birlikte topluma profesyonel bakım sağlayan ebelere ilişkin yapay zekâ uygulamaları; gebelik, doğum ve doğum sonrası süreçlerde anne ve bebek sağlığını iyileştirmeye yönelik kullanılmaktadır. Ebelik eğitiminde ise yapay zekâ; öğrenci başarısını artırma, sağlık eğitimini kişiselleştirme ve klinik başarıyı destekleme potansiyeli taşımakta olup yapay zekanın eğitime entegre edilmesi önemlidir. Veri güvenliği, algoritmik önyargılar, mahremiyet ihlalleri ve insan etkileşiminin azalması gibi etik sorunlar, yapay zekânın sağlık ve eğitim alanındaki kullanımında dikkat edilmesi gereken kritik konulardır. Dolayısıyla yapay zekâ uygulamalarının ebe eğitimine ve ebelik hizmetlerine entegrasyonu, öğrenci başarısını artırmada ve hasta bakım kalitesini iyileştirmede önemli fırsatlar sunmaktadır. Ancak bu süreçte veri gizliliği, algoritmik önyargılar ve insan etkileşiminin azalması gibi konuların titizlikle ele alınması gerekmektedir.

Authors: Güven Nurbanu , Aydın Doğan Reyhan
Published: November 2024

Doğum şekli; vajinal doğum, yardımlı vajinal doğum ve sezaryen doğum şeklinde sıralanmaktadır. Anne ve bebek için en güvenilir tercih normal doğum olarak kabul edilmesine rağmen gün geçtikçe artan sezaryen oranları dikkat çekmektedir. Sezaryen nedenleri arasında tıbbi nedenlerin dışında normal doğum konusunda güvenlik endişesi, obstetrik travma, sezaryen öyküsü ve en sık karşımıza çıkan doğum korkusu bulunmaktadır. Her doğum anne ve bebek için eşsiz bir deneyim olarak adlandırılsa da çoğunlukla korku barındırmaktadır. Şiddetli korku tokofobi olarak adlandırılmakta olup gebelik, doğum ve doğum sonrası süreçte anne için olumsuz sonuçlara sebep olmaktadır. Doğum şekli tercihi ve doğum korkusu yönetiminde eş ve refakatçi desteği, prekonsepsiyonel dönemden başlayarak sağlık profesyonellerinden kanıt temelli eğitim alınması, sağlık okuryazarlığının olumlu yönde etki sağladığı görülmektedir. Ebelik desteği ile anne adaylarının doğum korkusu ile baş etme ve sonucunda da normal doğumu tercih etme oranlarının daha yüksek olduğu güçlü kanıtlarda görülmektedir. Bu derlemenin amacı doğum şekli, doğum korkusu yönetimi ve ebelik bakımı konusunda güncel literatürün incelenmesidir.
Gebelikte Tatlandırıcı Kullanımının Anne Bebek Sağlığına Etkileri
Authors: Aydın Doğan Reyhan , Ersoy Yasemin
Published: November 2024

Son yıllarda besleyici değeri olmayan tatlandırıcı kullanımı giderek artmıştır. Bu tatlandırıcıları kullanımının gebelik döneminde de artış gösterdiği görülmüş ve uzun vadeli sonuçları belirsizdir. Bu derlemede gebelikte tatlandırıcı kullanımının anne bebek sağlığına etkilerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Gebelikte besleyici değeri olmayan tatlandırıcı kullanımının gebelikte kilo alımının artmasına, gebelik diyabeti, preeklampsi ve erken doğum gibi gebelik komplikasyonlarının gelişmesine neden olmaktadır. Gebelikte tatlandırıcı kullanımının bebek kilosunda artışa, bebek mikrobiyotasında azalmaya, bebeklerin tat algısını değiştirdiği ve ileriki dönemlerde kalp hastalığı ile obeziteye neden olduğu görülmüştür. Anne tüketiminin yanı sıra babaların yapay tatlandırıcı tüketmesinin epigenetik aktarım ile bebeğe geçtiği görülmüştür. Gebelikten önce ve gebelikte besleyici değeri olmayan tatlandırıcı tüketiminin etkilerine ilişkin daha az çalışma olmasına rağmen, mekanizmalar belirsiz olsa da erken doğum riski, artan bebek vücut kompozisyonu ve yavruların tatlı yiyecekler için tercihi dahil olmak üzere bebek sonuçları üzerindeki etkilerinin olduğu görülmüştür. Gebelikte şeker tüketimi ve diğer tatlandırıcıların gebelik sonuçları ve fetüs sağlığı üzerinde olumsuz bir etkisi olabileceği ve bu alanda daha fazla gözlemsel ve randomize kontrollü araştırmaların yapılmasına ihtiyaç vardır.

Authors: Karakoç Sibel
Published: November 2024

Sağlık okuryazarlığı, bireylerin sağlık bilgisine erişme, anlama, değerlendirme ve kullanma becerilerini kapsamakta olup, sağlığın korunması ve geliştirilmesinde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Küresel düzeyde düşük sağlık okuryazarlığı, tedavi yöntemlerinin anlaşılmasını ve koruyucu sağlık hizmetlerine erişimi sınırlamakta, kronik hastalık insidansını ve sağlık harcamalarını artırmaktadır. Türkiye'de her 10 kişiden 7’sinin yetersiz sağlık okuryazarlığı düzeyine sahip olması, bu konuda acil eylem planlarını gerekli kılmaktadır. Prenatal sağlık okuryazarlığı, gebelik sürecindeki kadınların bilgiye erişimini artırarak gebelik takibi, ilaç kullanımı ve sağlıklı yaşam davranışlarını geliştirmektedir. Sağlık okuryazarlığı düşük kadınların prenatal hizmetlerde bilinçli karar verme oranları daha düşüktür. Natal sağlık okuryazarlığı, doğum sürecine yönelik bilgi eksikliğinin, korku ve stresi artırarak sezaryen oranlarını yükselttiğini göstermektedir. Doğum sırasında sağlanan eğitim ve profesyonel destek, kadınların doğum ağrılarıyla baş etmesine ve olumlu bir doğum deneyimi yaşamasına katkı sağlamaktadır. Postnatal sağlık okuryazarlığı ise annenin doğum sonrası kendi bakımını ve yenidoğanın ihtiyaçlarını karşılamada doğru bilgiye ulaşmasını destekler. Ayrıca, kontrasepsiyon ve aile planlaması konusunda bilgi düzeyini artırarak etkin karar verme becerisini güçlendirmektedir. Sonuç olarak, sağlık okuryazarlığını artırmaya yönelik eğitim ve farkındalık çalışmaları, hem maternal hem de neonatal sağlık çıktılarında olumlu etkiler yaratabilir. Sağlık profesyonellerinin rolü, bu süreçte kadınlara bireyselleştirilmiş destek sunarak bilgiye dayalı karar verme süreçlerini güçlendirmektir.

Gebelik doğal bir süreç olmasına rağmen fiziksel, ruhsal ve sosyal pek çok farklılığı beraberinde getirmektedir. Bu değişimler kadının günlük yaşamını, yaşam kalitesini ve gebelik sürecini önemli ölçüde etkilemektedir. Her toplumda farklılık göstermekle birlikte doğum öncesi, doğum ve doğum sonrası dönemle ilgili yetersiz bilgi ve kanılar oldukça fazladır. Bu nedenle bu süreçte, ebeler sağlığı koruma ve geliştirme üzerine eğitimler vererek, gebeye, eşine ve aileye danışmanlık yaparak ailenin sağlıklı bir gebelik süreci geçirmesine ve sağlıklı bir bebeğin doğmasına katkıda bulunurlar. Doğum öncesi bakım, gebeliğin başlangıcından doğuma kadar süren bir dizi kontrol ve bakımı içermektedir. Bu süreç, annenin ve fetüsün düzenli bir şekilde takip edilmesini sağlar. Kaliteli doğum öncesi bakım, annenin fiziksel, ruhsal ve sosyal ihtiyaçlarını değerlendirerek, uygun eğitim ve danışmanlık hizmetleri sunmayı amaçlar. Anne adaylarının tehlike işaretleri ve belirtileri konusunda danışmanlık alması, gebelikteki olası sorunların sayısını ve şiddetini azaltabilir. Bu nedenle, sağlıklı bir gebelik süreci için en az dört kez izlem altında kaliteli doğum öncesi bakım önerilmektedir.

Blue Butterfly
Authors: Katsumata Milo
Published: December 2024

The "butterfly" is a symbol of the mind, soul, and transformation (Bradway & McCoard, 1997, p. 157).  Jung believed that just as an acorn becomes an oak tree and a larva a butterfly, the role of the psycho-clinician is to discover and fulfill the client's innate and profound potential (The Charleston Jung Society, 2020). This absolute trust in human beings and their transformative potential is the guiding principle that Jungian psychologist should have. I (the author) must say that Jung's philosophy is especially poignant to me, as I have has such a tumultuous like that I think it is rare for someone to have achieved such great growth as I have. The butterfly transforms from egg to larva, larva to chrysalis, and chrysalis to butterfly, abandoning its old self and transforming into a new self in stages. Even though I am not as beautiful in body and mind as a butterfly, I feel a sense of familiarity with a butterfly and take my hat off to show my respect for its power of 'rebirth.' As I have walked the path of individuation as a Jungian-oriented psychologist, the butterfly has always been with me and guided me along my psychological journey. As a human being and a Jungian-oriented psychologist, the symbol of the butterfly has taught me about rebirth, healing, and synchronicity.

Published: November 2024

Ütopyalar, yazıldıkları dönemin kusurları ve sorunlarını göz önünde bulundurularak, toplumsal ve mekânsal değişimlerle birlikte insanların zenginliklerini, arzularını ve hayallerini yansıtan eserler olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Dönemsel olarak değerlendirildiğinde düşsel metin yazınlarının ilk kez bir idea ve geleceğin kurgusu olarak ele alınması, klasik ütopyalar olarak tanımlanan Thomas More (1516), Francis Bacon (1627) ve Tommaso Campanella (1623)’nın eserleri ile olmuştur. Bu eserler dönemlerinin bir ifadesi olarak bulunduğu anı eleştirdiği gibi toplumsal açıdan da bilim, teknoloji, mimari üretim, şehircilik gibi birçok fütürist tasarım yaklaşımını yansıtan söylemler içermektedir. Bu doğrultuda çalışmada kavramsal çerçevede klasik ütopyalar incelenmiş, ardından ütopya ve mimarlık kavramları arasındaki ilişki irdelenerek klasik ütopyalardaki mimari söylemler analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden biri olan içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır.

Ütopyalardaki mimari tasarımı ve malzeme kullanımı, mimarlık alanında hala önemli bir referans noktası olarak kabul edilmekte olup, gelecekte de bu rolü sürdüreceği öngörülmektedir. Sonuç olarak sosyo-teknolojik bağlamına uygun olarak mevcut durumu eleştiren ütopyaların gelecek vaat eden yaklaşımı, geleceği tasarlama ve mimari çevre ilişkisi açısından, edebi eserlerin temsil ve tasvirlerinde görülmektedir.
Exploring the Architectural Perspectives of Surrealists as a Potential of Deformation in the Architectural Discipline
Authors: Gönül Hale , Tanju Bülent
Published: November 2024

Simmel identifies a conflict between life and forms, in which cultural constructions, in pursuit of permanence and stability, attempt to impose order on the ever-changing nature of life, ultimately leading to the ceaseless deformation and erosion of cultural forms. From this perspective, a transformative ability is attributed to avant-garde art, that does not only abolish established aesthetic rules but also denounces art as an institution. The oppositional stance of avant-garde artists paved the way for the disruption of architectural norms, that function as the creator and guardian of cultural forms. The investigation into the potential of Surrealism to act as a catalyst for deformation stems from this standpoint. Rejecting rationalism that they associated with the prevailing world order and the suppression of individual desires, Surrealists favoured emotions and dreams harboured within the unconscious of the individual, hence they criticized Modern Architecture for its totalitarianism and technological orientation. While denouncing abstract spaces of Modernism, Surrealists demonstrate a profound fascination with Art Nouveau buildings and naïve constructions, and propose designs for domestic interiors, which they regard as havens to protect the individual’s inner life from rationalism. In addition, they find fascination in the everyday life in the passages and streets, where surreal events and internal psychological experiences unfold. Within this framework, the objective of this study is to discuss whether the architectural perspectives of the Surrealists can serve as guiding forces for the deformation of the established norms in architecture or assume a critical role within the discipline. To achieve this objective, the paper delves into three key concepts: the intellectual contributions of Surrealists on discovered architectures, house and the domestic interiors, and the everyday inner experience in urbanscape. These concepts provide a rich and comprehensive field for exploring the architectural imagination within Surrealism and uncovering the potential of architectural deformation it promises.
"Estrategias Competitivas y Sostenibilidad en el Sector Bananero: Un Estudio Basado en Percepciones y Prácticas Agrícolas."
Authors: Cantos Luces Víctor Hugo , Velasco Donoso Andrea Paola
Published: November 2024

El sector bananero ecuatoriano es crucial para la economía del país, siendo una de las principales fuentes de exportación y empleo. Este estudio examina cómo las estrategias competitivas, tales como certificaciones internacionales, sostenibilidad ambiental y percepción de calidad, influyen en la competitividad de los productores bananeros en Ecuador. Utilizando un enfoque cuantitativo y un diseño no experimental, se recopilaron datos de 38 productores a través de encuestas estructuradas que evaluaron su percepción sobre certificaciones, inversión y sostenibilidad. Los resultados indican que el nivel educativo es fundamental para la adopción de estas estrategias: los productores con educación universitaria valoran más las certificaciones y la sostenibilidad en comparación con aquellos con menor nivel educativo. Asimismo, los gerentes son los actores con la percepción más consistente y alineada con las exigencias del mercado, a diferencia de jornaleros y productores, quienes muestran mayor variabilidad en sus respuestas. El análisis estadístico revela correlaciones significativas entre sostenibilidad y calidad (r=0.76) y entre sostenibilidad e inversión económica (r=0.89), destacando la importancia de la sostenibilidad como un motor de competitividad. Estos hallazgos no solo confirman la relevancia de integrar prácticas sostenibles, sino que también subrayan la necesidad de programas educativos y políticas públicas que promuevan la adopción de certificaciones y estrategias diferenciadoras. Este estudio proporciona una base sólida para fortalecer la posición de Ecuador en el mercado global, alineando sostenibilidad, calidad y competitividad como pilares fundamentales para el desarrollo del sector bananero.

The aim of this article is to analyse the anonymous work Menākıb-ı Sheikh Necmeddîn Kübrā written in Khwarezm Turkish in the nineteenth century and to reveal how important it is in terms of academic research on the Kübreviyya tradition. In this article, based on Menākıb-ı Sheikh Najm al-Dīn Qubrā, the narrations about Najm al-Dīn Qubrā’s relationship with his shaykhs, his disciples and what happened to them, the struggle of Sheikh Qubrā during the Mongol siege of Khwarezm and his martyrdom are compared with the historical and Sufi information obtained so far and evaluated how they should be understood. There are various manuscripts of the work in question, including the Leningrad Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Biruni Institute of Oriental Studies of Uzbekistan and personal libraries. However, most of them are not complete and some of them are missing some narrations or chapters. In addition, this menâkıbnâme was published in Cyrillic alphabet by a group of scholars in Uzbekistan, but it is little known in Turkey. The author of the menâkıbnâme, first introduced to the scientific world by the Russian orientalist Evgenii Berthels (1890-1957), is unknown. The stories about Najm al-Dīn al-Kubrā, his disciples and the Mongol conquest of Khwarazm, which have been passed down for centuries, have been brought together in this work. In the aforementioned menākıbnāma, some of the colourful and tragic incidents that happened to Shaykh Najmādīn Qubrā (d. 618/1221) and his disciples constitute a large number. Traces of many of these are also found in other historical and Sufi sources. However, some of them have an originality not seen in other sources.

Published: November 2024

Azerbaijani poetry, which has a thousand-year history, has been constantly updated, accumulating rich poetic experience, enriching itself in form, content, size, form, figurative structure and literary art. Tradition and innovation have always followed each other in poetry, and the development of each period and stage reflected a new poetic thought. One of the poets who was influenced by minstrel (aşıq) poetry is Zelimkhan Yakub. Zelimkhan Yakub is a modern Azerbaijani poet and bard who grew up in the minstrel environment of Borchali and held the post of president of the Azerbaijan Minstrels Association. Zelimkhan Yakub, a master of the minstrel art and performing saz melodies, became famous in the Turkisch world for his poems written in the style of minstrel poetry. The poet’s poems in a pure and fluent language set out the genetic memory, ethnography - holidays, weddings, everyday life of the Azerbaijani people. “Epic of Liberation”, “Epic of Yunus Emre”, “Epic of Great Life”, “Epic of Huseyn Sarajli”, “Epic of Fifty Years” and others are among the poems of the poet with epic motives. Poems written by the poet were published in 13 volumes. The life and work of the poet were studied by such researchers as Musa Nebioglu, Azer Turan, Rustam Kamal, Elnare Akimova, Kadim Rufullayev, Emine Huseynova and Sebuhi Bayramov. This article examines the problem of tradition and innovation in the poetry of Zelimkhan Yakub.

Damage Identification of a Steel Plate Using Vibration Methods
Authors: Kowalska Edyta
Published: December 2024

This paper presents an experimental study on the detection and localization of damage in a steel plate using vibration-based methods. Dynamic impulse tests were conducted on both undamaged and damaged plate to determine changes in modal parameters, such as eigenfrequencies and mode shapes. Several damage detection methods, including the Modal Assurance Criterion (MAC), Coordinate Modal Assurance Criterion (COMAC), Mode Shape Curvature (MSC), Mode Shape Curvature Square (MSCS), and Damage Index (DI), were applied. The results showed that while MAC and COMAC effectively detected damage, they did not provide information about the location. MSC and MSCS indices demonstrated improved damage localization, with the MSCS being particularly effective. The DI index provided the clearest and most accurate representation of the damage location. These findings highlight the potential of these methods for non-destructive testing and structural health monitoring.

Background: Limited access to health services is one of the factors that increases the risk of neonatal death. Previous studies identified inadequate transportation as a problem in the neonatal referral system in Indonesia. The Neonatal Emergency Transportation Service (NETS) was established to address this problem. NETS is equipped with an incubator, transport ventilator, and mobile vital sign monitor. Newborns transported via NETS are accompanied by a doctor and trained nurses. Objective: This study aims to compare the survival rates of newborns referred with and without using the NETS ambulance. Materials and Methods: This descriptive observational study employed a total sampling technique. Data were collected retrospectively from the electronic medical records at dr. Ramelan Central Naval Hospital, comparing the number of referrals and neonatal deaths between September 2021 and August 2022 (without the NETS ambulance) and between September 2022 and August 2023 (with the NETS ambulance). The data were analyzed using a chi-squared test (p = 0.004). Results: A total of 81 newborns were referred to the hospital using the NETS ambulance. The survival rate of newborns transported with the NETS ambulance was higher (69.1%) compared to those transported without the NETS ambulance (48.1%) (p = 0.004). The risk ratio was calculated at 0.413. Conclusion: Neonatal survival rates were higher for referrals using the ambulance compared to those without using the ambulance.
