Sustainable textile and circular economy: paradigm changing
Authors: Moreira da Silva Fernando
Published: July 2023

To address sustainability is to talk about empathy and exhaustible
natural resources, i.e., to adhere to attitudes in the present that can
avoid future scarcity. The more we consume, the more we produce. The more it
is produced, the greater the negative impact on nature and the frequency of
disposal, promoting damage to the soil and, consequently, to ourselves, one
of the fast fashion problems. The circular economy is based on a sustainable
attitude and the concept of the five R's: rethink, refuse, reduce, reuse and
recycle materials and energy. The objective of the circular economy is,
therefore, to promote socio-environmental responsibility actions among
people, whether individuals or legal entities, understanding that nothing
has a definitive end. Among the various R's of the circular economy, this
research project focuses on recycling, which means reusing a product so that
another object can be manufactured from it, such as the textile product. In
this sense, several sustainable actions involving the circular economy have
been taken by the regulatory bodies of the textile industry and by the
fabric manufacturers themselves. The idea is to collaborate with the
conception, structuring and execution of projects that aim to carry out
ecologically correct activities. With the worsening of the environmental
crisis and the urgent need to implement Sustainable Development, companies
have felt greater pressure to integrate sustainability into their business,
namely companies in the Textile and Clothing Industry, whose environmental
and social impact is notorious. Although the value attributed to sustainable
practices depends on the business model and vision of the companies, the
textile industry is an industry in which sustainability is of special
importance. From material selection to product disposal, the value chain has
a significant environmental and social impact, namely related to: the use of
toxic chemicals in the dyeing process; the high energy consumption and
working conditions in the confection; the high amounts of greenhouse gases
emitted in transport; in addition to the disposal of clothing in landfills
and incineration. The main objective of this ongoing research project is to
understand and to underline the importance of sustainability and the
circular economy in textile production, as perceived by young designers and
fashion students, as well as by consumers of recycled textile products. For
this, a mixed methodology composed of literature review and survey was used.
This paper presents the results achieved so far, which show awareness on the
part of the different groups that took part in the study, but also the
difficulties and challenges faced by the implementation of sustainable
measures in the practice of recycling textile products.
Usability testing of instructions for use in cleaning, disinfection and
sterilization of ultrasound probes
Authors: Oliverio Marianna , Fiesoli Daniele , Bellavia Simona , De Luca Ramona
Published: July 2023

Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) represents an area of big
interest in healthcare. In this context, 'reprocessing' means a cleaning,
disinfection or sterilisation process carried out on a used device in order
to allow its safe reuse. A typical IPC responsibility assignments matrix
includes healthcare facilities, manufacturers of reprocessing agents and
equipment, and manufacturers of medical devices. This project aims to
analyze and validate the Instructions for Use (IFUs) for reprocessing of
ultrasound (US) probes, from the point of view of the usability, in
accordance with IEC 62366-1:2015+AMD1:2020 and IEC TR 62366-2:2016.US probes
enable a wide range of applications, with the level of infection risk based
on the Spaulding Classification, going from noncritical and semi-critical
(intact skin and mucous membrane contacts respectively), to critical
(intraoperative). In addition to the diverse clinical procedures, the risk
of contamination depends also on the variability in the healthcare
environment and user knowledge and expertise.Safe reprocessing of an US
probe requires that its IFUs, considered as part of the user interface, are
clear, legible, and complete. For this reason, to ensure their correct
execution and workflow, a usability testing for the reprocessing IFUs is
performed. According to the IEC 62366 standards, such test consists of two
steps: formative and summative evaluations. The overall aim of the first
step is to explore if the instructions are recognizable, understandable and
operable by the user and to identify worst-case scenarios and critical tasks
which will be further investigated during the second step by a user group,
including lay and professional users with different profiles and needs. For
the purpose of this project, the usability testing has confirmed a powerful
tool to verify that our reprocessing IFUs for aUS probe can be easily and
effectively used. The preliminary analysis and the following interviews of
diverse users operating in different environments, have provided evidence
that such IFUs enable the user to perform a proper and reliable reprocessing
for a safe reuse of the probe.
Can Transient Simulations Improve Lower Limb-Prosthesis Interaction
Analysis?
Authors: Plesec Vasja , Harih Gregor
Published: July 2023

Human gait is a highly dynamic process; however, most numerical analyses
to simulate a lower limb prosthesis wearer are still performed using an
implicit static method. To account for the dynamic effects, a transient
numerical simulation was performed in this study, simulating a gait cycle of
a lower limb-prosthesis system. Donning of the socket followed by heel
strike and push-off conditions of the gait were analysed using a recently
developed generic transtibial limb model representing an average transtibial
amputee. The static results previously obtained were compared with the
transient simulation and the results in terms of contact pressure at
residual limb-liner interface and von-Mises stresses in the prosthetic
socket were evaluated. The numerical results show a significant difference
between the transient and static numerical simulations due to the dynamic
effect incorporated in the numerical analysis, indicating a need to include
these effects to obtain more realistic conditions.

Published: July 2023

Background and objectives: Developing screening programmes to lower breast and cervical cancer morbidity and mortality requires a better knowledge of psychological, socioeconomic, and environmental variables that may affect screening behaviours. This study was conducted to assess the knowledge, attitude and practices regarding breast and cervical cancer among women of reproductive age group in a village in West Bengal, India. Materials and methods: A descriptive type of observational study was conducted in village Muchisa of Budge-Budge II block, West Bengal among 300 women from January to June 2022 using a pre-designed, pre-tested, structured schedule by face-to-face interview method. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 25.0 using suitable descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The mean age of the study participants was 31.6 ± 7.4 years. Out of 300 women, 41.7% and 41.3% had adequate knowledge on breast and cervical cancer respectively. Regarding attitude, 57.3% and 75.3% had highly favourable attitude on breast and cervical cancer respectively. Only 38 (12.7%) had performed breast self-examination at least once whereas only 5.3% had undergone Pap smear test at least once before the survey. Socio-demographic and economic factors of the respondents were significantly (p<0.05) associated with knowledge on breast cancer while none of these factors were found to have statistically significant association with knowledge on cervical cancer. Conclusion: Most of the study population did not have adequate knowledge of breast and cervical cancer, their risk factors and symptoms. Their attitude was positive but practice related to screening was very unsatisfactory. IMC J Med Sci. 2023; 17(2):011.

De esta manera, en el presente artículo presentamos los retos de las mujeres trans asociados a sus condiciones de vida a partir de una revisión bibliográfica en Colombia de la literatura publicada entre 2010 y 2020. Los hallazgos dan cuenta de escasos estudios sobre las mujeres trans, así como las cualidades y procesos cotidianos de reproducción social que interfieren en el goce y protección de sus derechos asociados a las situaciones de estigma, discriminación y violencias que enfrentan por su identidad de género no hegemónica. Esto impacta negativamente en sus condiciones de vida, su salud y bienestar, y perpetúa las inequidades e injusticias que tienen que enfrentar y han enfrentado de manera estructural e histórica.
Karl Marx e a teoria do estado em perspectiva
Authors: Palhano Emanuel Paiva , Melo Esaú Castro de Albuquerque , Tavares Everkley Magno Freire , Lindozo José Antonio Spineli
Published: July 2023

As Ciências Sociais exibem muitas discussões acerca da teoria do Estado, que remontam aos autores clássicos do campo da Filosofia Política, além dos pensadores que fundam a Ciência Política moderna. Quando refletimos sobre a importância dos clássicos para as Ciências Sociais, deparamo-nos com a atualidade de suas concepções, sendo imperiosa sua leitura para as novas gerações. Por isso, torna-se pertinente estudar as contribuições da crítica política de Karl Marx para a teoria do Estado. Esse artigo fará um percurso analítico, abordando brevemente a teoria do Estado de Max Weber para colocá-la em contraste com a crítica política do pensamento de Marx, até compreender a teoria do Estado em obras selecionadas deste autor. Quanto aos resultados, apontamos para a contraposição entre as concepções de Estado de Weber e Marx; percebemos que a teoria do Estado de Marx não é linear, tendo mudanças ao longo de suas obras; e destacamos que, com o passar do tempo, Marx parte de uma concepção mecânica para uma compreensão do Estado mais dinâmica e dialética. Por fim, a crítica política de Marx nos leva a concluir que, mesmo havendo uma autonomia relativa, o Estado ainda pode ser objeto de controle por parte da classe dominante.
EFFECTS OF OMAR KHAYYAM’S THOUGHT ON URDU LETTERS
Authors: Shahab Uddin Shah  , Dr. Muhammad Asif Awan
Published: July 2023

The correspondence literature in Urdu is almost two hundred years old. By studying the art and evolution of Urdu letters, it becomes clear that all kinds of subjects can be immersed in this genre and there is no limitation of the subject. These are literary achievements on which life is flowing smoothly. They have the great ability to capture present, future, and past plans, positions & scales, opinions, and thoughts. From vicissitudes of emotions and the commitment of relationships to the gravity of historical facts and glimpses of objectivity are only found in the genre of lettering.

This is the reason, why civilization, history, society, culture, politics, and literature, there is no such corner of life that is not described in this genre. The necessity, importance, and utility of letters of famous literature celebrities have been recognized from time to time. The proof of this is not only available in the collection of books published in large numbers but also in the correspondence numbers of magazines.

One approach to writing in Urdu is that it used to follow the Persian style. A critical or analytical study of the writings and creations of academic and literary figures and their historical arrangement is not possible with full confidence until we have access to the writings that are written in the form of letters. In this article, a study of the impact of Hakim Omar Khayyam's thoughts on Urdu literature correspondence has been presented. In this context, Urdu letters include comments on the exclusion of Omar Khayyam's Rubaiyat, his living conditions, and his works, which have been elaborated on by famous literary figures in their letters.

Nasal Condromesenchymal Hamartoma- A Diagnostic Dilemma
Authors: Shagufta Qadri  , Syeda Iqra Usman  , Kiran Alam  , Mahboob Hasan
Published: July 2023

Nasal chondromesenchymal hamartoma (NCH) is a very rare and benign tumor of sinonasal tract and usually presents in infants and young children with varied symptoms depending upon the site of tumor in nasal cavity or paranasal sinuses. Here we present a case of 12 years old female who presented with on and off nasal obstruction for 1 year. On the basis of clinical and radiological findings she was diagnosed as a case of ethmochoanal polyp but radiological findings also showed bony thinning because of which malignancy could not be ruled out. But surprisingly her histopathological findings were in favour of chondromesenchymal hamartoma which was confirmed by vimentin and S100 positivity.
Oral Health and Salivary pH Changes in Menopausal Women: A Cross-sectional Study
Authors: Prasad Shilpa , Pancharethinam Durgadevi , Gokulraj Sabitha , A Kumar
Published: July 2023

Introduction: Menopause is a natural process in life of women often associated with hormonal changes. It aﬀects oral health by inﬂuencing the growth of bacteria and plaque, which can cause tooth decay and gum disease. Menopause can alter salivary pH by reducing estrogen levels, which may lead to dry mouth, inﬂammation, and increased risk of infections. Therefore, it is important for women in menopause to monitor their salivary pH and maintain good oral hygiene habits. However, there is contradictory evidence about the level of salivary pH and oral symptoms. The present study was carried out to assess the oral ﬁndings and salivary pH in premenopausal and postmenopausal women. Methods: The study was carried out on 60 patients who reported to the Department of oral medicine and radiology and were divided into two groups consisting of 30 patients each. Group 1: premenopausal women with no known systemic illness and deleterious habits. Group 2: postmenopausal women. Results: Salivary pH is higher in postmenopausal women than in premenopausal women. Both pre and postmenopausal women have oral symptoms such as dry mouth, facial pain, and ulcerative lesions, but they are more frequent in postmenopausal women. Conclusions: Menopause aﬀects the oral health and salivary pH of women. Postmenopausal women are more prone to oral diseases and have lower salivary pH than premenopausal women. Salivary pH may be used as a biomarker for oral health status in postmenopausal women.
Evaluation Of Sphenoid Sinus Volume And Cranial Base Length In Subjects With Different Sagittal Skeletal Malocclusions
Authors: Kumar Arshya , Pandian Srirengalakshmi Muthuswamy
Published: July 2023

Introduction: The most hidden and inaccessible of all the paranasal air sinuses is the sphenoid sinus, a cavity with an irregular shape that is situated in the middle of the cranial base. Since the anterior cranial base shows little growth after the age of 7, it is regarded as a stable reference for cephalometric analysis. Objective: The aim of this study was to predict skeletal malocclusion by correlating the length of the cranial base and the volume of the sphenoid sinus in different sagittal skeletal patterns.Materials and methodology: In this study, a total of 30 cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans of patients, aged between 18 and 35 years who underwent orthodontic and orthognathic treatment were evaluated. DICOM files from the CBCT scans were imported and viewed using Dolphin imaging software. Skeletal malocclusion was evaluated using a lateral cephalogram obtained from the CBCT. Volumetric analysis of the sphenoid sinus and length of the cranial base was evaluated with the help of the Dolphin imaging software. A normality test was done to decide the statistical method for data analysis. A one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post hoc test was done to compare the three groups. Results: There was a correlation noted between the volume of the sphenoid sinus in skeletal class II malocclusion but no correlation was noted in the length of the cranial base. The mean value of the volume of the sphenoid sinus in subjects with class II skeletal malocclusion was 12613.50± 2023.409 which was greater compared to the other skeletal malocclusions.Conclusion: Sphenoid sinus volume was reported to be increased in subjects with skeletal class II malocclusion but there was no correlation between the cranial base length and sphenoid sinus volume in any group.

Published: July 2023

Context-aware mobility has the potential to make the way we travel more efficient, safer, and more sustainable. Among the possible contexts, safety, in terms of crime levels in city regions, is one that has been used to calculate safer routes. Making a bus route safer is important to improve the quality of life of the passengers, who often are victims of criminals during their journey. However, existing studies focus only on private vehicles and do not assess the impact for citizens as a whole. In this work, an existing solution for calculating safe routes is evaluated in the context of public bus transport in terms of the impact caused to passengers. The results showed that, in general, changing a bus route to make it safer increases the distance traveled by a few kilometers for most passengers. This small increase in distance is not harmful to the passengers, given that they will be at less risk to face any kind of criminal situation. In addition to this analysis, a scalable tool for extracting mobility flow was also developed.
Soil water management: evaluation of infiltration in furrow irrigarion systems, assessing water and salt content spatially and temporally in the Parc Agrari del Baix Llobregat area.
Authors:   , Aljoumani Basem
Published: July 2023

Sustainability of irrigated agriculture is a growing concern in the Baix Llobregat area. Although irrigated land accounts for a substantial proportion of food supply to the local market, it has been, and still is increasingly degraded by poor agricultural management. This dissertation focuses on ways to evaluate furrow irrigation and to assess soil water content and soil salinity (temporally and spatially) under usual farmers's management practices.
This dissertation meets these goals through an extensive study of relevant literature and the implementation of practical research. The latter was carried out with a case study on representative fields of the area. Empirical and stochastic models were applied to evaluate furrow irrigation as well as to monitor water flow and solute transport in the root zone. This research produced a number of key findings: first, evaluating furrow irrigation confirmed that 40-43 % of the applied water would have been saved in the study fields if irrigation was stopped as soon as soil water deficit was fully recharge taking the amount of water needed for salt leaching into account, and that the application efficiency (AE) would increase from 48% to 84% and from 41% to 68% (Field 1 and Field 2, respectively). Second, the predictions of soil water content using ARIMA models were logical, and the next irrigation time and its effect on soil water content at the depth of interest were correctly estimated. Third, considering the linear relationship eb-sb, by transforming the Hilhorst (2000) model, which is based on the deterministic linear relationship eb-sb, into a time- varying Dynamic Linear Model (DLM) enabled us to validate this relationship under field conditions. An offset esb=0 value was derived that would ensure the accurate prediction of sp from measurements of sb. It was shown that the offset esb=0 varied for each depth in the same soil profile. A reason for this might be changes in soil temperature along the soil profile. The sp was then calculated for each depth in the root zone. Fourth, by using a (multiple input--single output) transfer function model, the results showed that soil water content and soil temperature had a significant impact on soil salinity, and soil salinity, predicted as a function of soil water and soil temperature, was correctly estimated. Finally, applying the analysis of variance (ANOVA), the results showed that the irrigation frequency, according to the farmer's usual management practice, had statistically significant effects on soil salinity behaviour, depending on soil depth and position (furrow, ridge). Moreover, it was shown that at the end of the crop's cycle the farmers left the field with less soil salinity, for each depth, than at the beginning of the crop's agricultural cycle.

Ukraine has recently experienced a significant economic downturn as a result of
the COVID-19 pandemic and the war caused by a large-scale military aggression of the
Russian Federation. In conditions of the constant fluctuations of the national economy,
the stimulating effect of the budgetary policy aimed at minimizing the consequences of
such fluctuations and guaranteeing a sufficient level of financial security of the state
becomes especially important. The aim of the study is to deepen the theoretical and
methodological foundations of the creation and implementation of budgetary policy in
Ukraine, evaluation of its impact on the financial security in time of challenges. The
study uses methods of comparative analysis, grouping in the process of evaluating the
current state of budgetary policy indicators, methods of normalization and
standardization of data, modelling, and graphical analysis of data for normalizing the
financial security indicators and determining the dynamics of financial security
components. The materials and reports containing statistical data from the Ministry of
Finance of Ukraine and the State Statistics Service of Ukraine served as the basis of
the study. We found out that the components of the financial security of the state in
the face of the challenges posed by martial law and the pandemic do not take into
account the impact of budgetary policy. We substantiated the thesis that the creation of
Ukraine's budgetary policy under martial law requires adjustments to the financial
security assessment system. The most statistically significant and reliable models of
interrelation were selected for further use in multifactor modelling and forecasting the
financial security of the state (on the basis of ranking the linear, polynominal,
exponential, logarithmic and power dependencies within one-factor equations). It was
experimentally proved that out of 122 statistically significant indicators, budgetary
policy indicators such as the coefficient of financing the national functions, the
coefficient of public debt service and redemption, and the coefficient of the
proportionality of financing the national security agencies had the greatest impact on

The article analyses systems of electronic information resources (registers and
databases) in the field of the healthcare in different countries. Not only do such
systems provide information to support the treatment of patients, but they also
accumulate large amounts of statistics, thus enabling their qualitative operational
analysis. Electronic health systems are particularly popular in the United States, and
as regards Europe, in Denmark and Norway. These countries created good conditions for
the efficient introduction of new electronic information resources that would store all
the accumulated information about the COVID 19 pandemic. The aim of the article is to
summarise information on the use of electronic registers and databases to create an
information base for the study of the COVID-19 pandemic and its consequences in
different countries, and to formulate proposals for the improvement of electronic health
systems in Ukraine. On the basis of the results of their research, the authors propose a
list of electronic registers that can significantly improve the analysis of both the
course and the consequences of the coronavirus disease. The list includes: the register
of immunisations, a specialised register of complications after the recovery from
COVID-19, a register of tests for the presence of this disease or the recovery, etc., as
well as a register of hospitalisation cases.
EFFECT OF STERILIZATION ON ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITY: IN THE CASE OF THAI HALAL CURRY PASTE
Authors: Madsari Naeem
Published: July 2023

Halalan and thayyiban foods are intensively important among Muslims all around the world. Besides, consumer health concerns are escalating the demand for healthy food. Thai cuisine usually consists of several spices and herbs meant for colouring, flavouring, enhancing taste, and having various medicinal properties. Thai red curry paste commonly contains chilli pepper, black pepper, garlic bulb, lemon grass, and turmeric as its main ingredients. In addition, the phytochemicals of particular herbs in red curry paste also have antioxidant activities. This study builds on previous research using halal red curry pasted to increase shelf-life and monitor the herbal values. The sterilization and packaging improvement could increase the shelf-life by up to 1 year. Moreover, phenolic, flavonoid, and antioxidant activity (DPPH) were measured by comparing PreS and PostS. The results show that red curry paste has a high level of phenolic, and flavonoid content, and radical scavenging activity. Moreover, the health benefits of herbs and spices were increased after sterilization. This study presumed that curry paste considered a thayyiban product might be a fascinating choice for health-conscious Muslims and non-Muslims.
EXPLORING BRUNEI'S TOURISM POLICIES FOR ATTRACTING MUSLIM TOURISTS FROM THE US AND AUSTRALIAN MARKETS: A PRELIMINARY STUDY
Authors: Sim Stephen
Published: July 2023

The field of Halal tourism is experiencing burgeoning growth and is expected to reach a market value of $300 billion by 2026. In this context, the tourism policies implemented by Brunei play a crucial role in shaping the perceptions and experiences of tourists, while also exerting a substantial impact on the country's economic development. As Brunei aims to diversify its economy and reduce its dependence on oil exports, the Halal tourism market presents a promising opportunity for the nation's Islamic travel industry. Particularly, Muslim tourists from the United States (US) and Australia emerge as potential target markets for Brunei. Given Brunei's predominantly Islamic character, the country possesses inherent advantages as a Muslim-Friendly Tourism (MFT) destination for US and Australian Muslim tourists. These advantages embrace shared religious values, a safe environment (Darussalam – Abode of Peace), and common use of the English language. This paper aims to assess the potential of these target markets by considering their Purchasing Power Parity, consumer needs, and demand for Halal food and accommodations. This paper adopts qualitative research methods, focusing on Netnography to gain insight into the digital experiences of potential Muslim tourists/consumers. Extensive datasets drawn from eHalal.io, a reputable provider of quality management systems for Halal products and services, will be analysed to gather valuable information. Through this study, we hope to shed light on the viability and attractiveness of the US and Australian Muslim tourist markets for Brunei's Halal tourism industry.  The findings presented in this study suggests valuable insights for policymakers in Brunei's tourism industry, in regard to target markets of the US and Australia Muslim tourists.
KAZAKÇA RUSÇA DİL İLİŞKİLERİNİN EDİLGENLİK KATEGORİSİNE ETKİSİ

Bugün geniş bir coğrafyaya yayılmış olan Türk dillerinin pek çok üyesi bulunmaktadır. Bu üyeler

aynı dil ailesinden olmalarına rağmen birbirlerinden farklılaştıkları noktalar vardır. Bazen bu

farklılıkları açıklamak için Türk dillerinin yayıldıkları coğrafyalarda çeşitli dillerle kurdukları dil

ilişkilerini göz önünde bulundurmak gerekmektedir. Kazakça üç yüzyıla yakın bir süredir Rusça ile

etkileşimde bulunmaktadır. Coğrafi, ticari, siyasi vb. çeşitli sebeplerle Kazak ve Rus toplumu ve

dolayısıyla dilleri arasındaki bu uzun soluklu etkileşim iki dilliliği de beraberinde getirmiştir. İki dillilik,

Rusça ve Kazakça arasındaki ilişkiyi daha da derinleştirerek baskın dil konumundaki Rusçadan

Kazakçaya çeşitli dil bilgisel düzeylerde kopyalamaların yapılmasını arttırmıştır. Basit sözcük kopyaları

en kolay kopyalanan katman iken biçim bilimsel ve söz dizimsel unsurların kopyalanması yoğun bir dil

ilişkisine işaret etmektedir. Bugün Kazakçada Rusçadan yapılmış pek çok genel ve seçilmiş kopyaların

olması dil ilişkisinin yoğunluğuna işaret etmektedir. Bu makalede dil ilişkileri bağlamında Rusçanın

Kazakçadaki edilgenlik kategorisini ne derece etkilediği ve ne gibi farklılıklara sebep olduğu

incelenmiştir.

1893-1938 yılları arasında Doğu Türkistan’da misyonerlik faaliyetleri yürüten İsveçli misyonerlerin asıl

amaçları olan Hristiyanlığı yayma çalışmalarının yanı sıra bölgede yaptıkları kültürel çalışmalar, ilgi çekici

bir inceleme alanıdır. Bu çalımalar sırasında derlenen veriler günümüz Türkoloji araştırmaları için birinci el

kaynaklar ortaya koymuştur. Misyonerlerin çalışmalarını değerlendirirken dini yayma çabaları ve daha hızla

ve kapsamlı misyonerlik faaliyetleri yürütmek için kurdukları matbaa ile bölgenin kültürel gelişimine katkıda

bulunmuşlardır. Bu matbaada basılan çeşitli yayınlar Doğu Türkistan hakkında şu an en kolay ulaşabilecek

kaynaklardır. İsveç misyoner ekibinin asıl hedefleri dışında bölgenin kültürel gelişmesine sağladıkları katkıyı,

misyonerlerin ekipçe ya da ekipte yer alan uzmanların bıraktığı notlar, derlediği kaynaklar, yayımladığı kitap,

makaleler ve bunların üzerinde yapılan akademik çalışmaları takip ederek daha açık anlayabiliriz. Bu yazıda,

İsveçli misyonerlerin Doğu Türkistan’da yaptıkları çalışmalar; onların yazdıklarından ve buradaki

misyonerlik faaliyetlerinden hareketle incelenecektir.
TAHKİYELİ BİR ŞİİR ÖRNEĞİ OLARAK VAHÎD MAHTÛMÎ’NİN OKÇULUKLA İLGİLİ BİR TARİH KASİDESİ
Authors: UĞUR Fatih
Published: July 2023

Klasik Türk edebiyatında kasidelerin kendine özgü bir şekil ve muhteva yapısı vardır. Ancak bu yapı,

kimi zaman şairler tarafından yeniden düzenlenmiş ve gelenek içerisinde farklı kompozisyonda metinler

oluşturulmuştur. Tarih kasideleri de bu metinlerdendir. Şairler, kimi zaman başlarından geçen veya şahit

oldukları bir olayı kaside nazım şekliyle anlatmışlar ve ebced hesabıyla tarih düşürmüşlerdir. XVIII. yüzyıl

şairlerinden olan Vahîd Mahtûmî (ö. 1732-33) bu yazıda incelenecek olan manzumesinde devrin padişahı

Sultan III. Ahmed ile aralarında meydana gelen bir ok atma olayına tarih düşürmüştür. Buna göre padişah,

bir gün Vahîd Mahtûmî’yi huzuruna getirtmiş, bir ok atacağını ve eğer ağzıyla bu oku tutabilirse ona çeşitli

hediyeler vereceğini söylemiştir. Şair de padişahın attığı bu oku ağzıyla tutabilmiş ve bu hünerini bir tarih

kasidesi yazarak anlatmıştır. Ancak Vahîd, başından geçen bu olayı doğrudan anlatmak yerine çeşitli

özelliklerle tahkiye etme yoluna gitmiş, manzume boyunca da okçulukla ilgili mecazlara başvurarak tematik

bir bütünlük oluşturmuştur. Bu yazıda söz konusu manzume hikâye yapısı ve okçulukla ilgili kavramlar

üzerinden incelenmiş ve yapısal özellikleri gösterilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Introducción. Los trabajadores de salud presentan un alto riesgo de trastornos de la salud mental durante epidemias como lo ocurrido en la pandemia por COVID-19. No existía evidencia sobre el efecto de la pandemia en el personal de vigilancia de salud pública. Estudiamos el efecto de la epidemia por COVID-19 en la salud mental del personal que realizó vigilancia de salud pública en la República Dominicana en 2020-2021. Población y métodos. Estudio transversal, en 89 trabajadores de la salud ocupados en la vigilancia de salud pública en las direcciones provinciales y áreas de salud que participaron en la respuesta a la pandemia por COVID-19. Aplicamos un cuestionario en línea y recolectamos datos sobre variables de exposición sociodemográficas, entorno del trabajo y la afectación por COVID-19. Medimos trastorno de ansiedad y síndrome de desgaste profesional como variables de resultado. Utilizamos estadísticas descriptivas y exploramos la asociación entre las variables de exposición y las de resultado.  Resultados. El 42.2% (89/211) respondió a la encuesta, participando menos hombres que mujeres. El 29.2% (26/89) percibió la necesidad de buscar ayuda psicológica pero solamente el 7.8% (7/89) la buscó. El 14.6% (13/89) tuvieron desgaste profesional. El 36% eran encargados de epidemiología, 10.1% (9/89) de 60 o más años, siendo los menos afectados por la ansiedad y desgaste.  Discusión. La pandemia del COVID-19 causo desgaste profesional en los trabajadores de vigilancia de salud pública. La inexperiencia del personal fue un factor de riesgo. Recomendamos establecer políticas estatales para proteger su salud mental.
