Study Design: Cross-sectional study Place and Duration: This study was conducted at Abbottabad Medical Complex Hospital, Abbottabad in the duration from April, 2021 to October, 2021. Methods: Total 67 patients of both gender had lichen planus were presented in this study. After getting informed written consent detailed demographics of enrolled cases included age, sex, body mass index and duration of LP were recorded. Fasting blood sugar levels between 100 and 125 mg/dL (5.6 and 7.0 mmol/L) were considered to be indicative of impaired fasting glucose (IFG). Frequency of DM and glucose intolerance were recorded. SPSS 23.0 was used to analyze all data. Results: In this study, 36 (53.7%) were males and 31 (46.3%) were females. The mean age of the patients was 51.3±17.87 years and had mean BMI 26.08±12.63 kg/m2. Mean duration of LP was 3.9±10.29 years. There were 28 (41.8%) cases had classic lichen planus, followed by ashy dermatosis, hypertrophic, oral lichen planus, nail and actinic. We found that 17 (25.4%) patients had diabetes mellitus type II and 20 (29.9%) cases had glucose intolerance. We found a significant relationship between LP and DM in our cases with p value <0.004. Conclusion: We concluded in this study that the patients of lichen planus had higher frequency of DM type -2 and glucose intolerance. There was a close relationship between lichen planus and DM among all cases. There is need to evaluate patients early for treatment in hospitals.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the mean change in intraocular pressure following trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C in patients who present with congenital glaucoma. Study Design: Observational/ Cross-sectional Place and Duration: Data was collected from different hospitals of Pakistan, including Jinnah International Hospital, Abbottabad and Department of Ophthalmology, Sahara Medical College, Narowal from December 2021 to May 2022. Methods: The study included 62 patients, both male and female, with primary congenital glaucoma, ranging in age from birth to five years. After receiving signed permission from patients' legal guardians, we were able to record their demographic information. Trabeculectomy using 0.4mg/ml Mitomycin C was performed on all of the patients. Mitomycin C was placed for 2 minutes under the scleral flap. The intraocular pressure was measured before surgery and again 12 days later. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 22.0. Results: Included children had mean age 1.9±3.16 years. We found that, majority of the patients 39 (62.9%) were males and 23 (37.1%) cases were females. The mean intraocular pressure before and after surgery was significantly different, with a p-value of 0.002 (29.41±5.22 Vs 15.17±1.73). Conclusion: It has been determined that doing a trabeculectomy while administering mitomycin C results in a significant decrease in intraocular pressure. Following surgery, a substantial reduction in intraocular pressure was noted by the attending physician. Keywords: Intra-ocular Pressure, Primary Congenital Glaucoma, Mitomycin C, Trabeculectomy

Published: January 2023

Objective: To compare the conventional surgical turbinoplasty versus microdebrider assisted turbinoplasty in cases of inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Design of the Study: It was a cross-sectional survey. Place and Duration of Study: This study was carried at the Department of ENT Nishtar Medical University and Hospital, Multan from January 2022 to June 2022. Patients and Methods: Patients with hypertrophy of the inferior turbinates, the most common cause of nasal obstruction, were split into two groups of 30. The size of the inferior turbinates was classified as Grade I if they took up less than a third of the nasal cavity, Grade II if they took up more than a third but less than half, and Grade III if they took up more than half. Each group had either a standard partial inferior turbinectomy or a turbinoplasty with the help of a microdebrider. Visual evaluation was used to categorise blood loss during and after surgery. Patients were checked on at 1, 2, 4, and 6 months after surgery. Relief from symptoms and the occurrence of problems such crusting and synechiae formation were evaluated. Results of the Study: Both groups showed comparable significant improvements in nasal blockage. Most patients in the CPIT group experienced intraoperative blood loss of grade II (66.66%) or grade III (10%). When the packs were taken off, 60% of patients experienced grade I blood loss, 36.66% experienced grade II blood loss, and 3% experienced grade III blood loss after surgery. Most patients (46%) and surgeons (40%) in the MAT group experienced grade II or higher intraoperative blood loss. The majority of patients' postoperative blood loss was classified as grade I. Six months later, 6.66 percent of the CPIT group had acquired crusting, and 6.66 percent had developed synechiae. Those that received MAT did not have these problems. Practical implication: The choice of surgical procedure is up to the surgeon's attitude and experience due to the lack of agreement regarding their efficacy. That’s why we compared the effectiveness of these treatment methods for turbinate reduction in order to provide evidence to evaluate the results of the several surgical techniques in local population. Conclusion: According to the findings, both surgical approaches are effective in addressing nasal blockage. Complications are less likely to occur with microdebrider-assisted inferior turbinoplasty since the mucosa and nasal physiology are preserved.

Published: January 2023

Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of chest x-ray in detecting chest tube malpositions. Design of the Study: It was a cross-sectional survey. Place and Duration of Study: This study was carried at the Department of Radiology, Civil Hospital Karachi and Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto (SMBB) Trauma Centre Karachi over 6 months from28th January 2021 to 27th July 2021. Patients and Methods: This study comprised a total of 191 patients with blunt or penetrating chest damage needing a tube thoracotomy. An incision in the skin was made directly above the rib. A suitable-sized chest tube was placed inside, fastened with a silk 1-0 suture, and an aseptic dressing was placed. The patient was subsequently transported for a chest CT scan without contrast and a X-ray of chest (frontal and lateral views). Chest tube malposition, or CTM, was identified on a frontal, lateral, or both radiographs. All information was recorded in the Performa. Results: The patients were 35.9611.387 years old on average. 26.1% (52/199) of the patients had malposition, which was verified by CT. The frontal chest x-sensitivity, ray's specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy in detecting malposition were 36.5%, 100%, 100%, 81.7%, and 83.4%, respectively, and the lateral chest x-were ray's 15.4%, 100%, 100%, 77%, and 77.9%%. The combined frontal and lateral chest x-sensitivity, ray's specificity, PPV, NPV, and accuracy were 38.5%, 100%, 100%, 82.1%, and 77.4%, respectively, in detecting malposition. 83.4% of chest x-rays with combined frontal and lateral views correctly identified malposition. Practical Implication: A literature search reveals that there is relatively little information available about this topic in our population. As a result, it gives the study a solid justification since its main objective is to compare the diagnostic efficacy of frontal and lateral CXR to that of a CT scan in identifying chest tube malposition. Conclusion: When a chest x-ray is taken from both the front and the side, its accuracy in detecting malposition is 83.4 percent. In high negative and positive findings for the diagnosis of thorax injuries make chest X-ray an essential aspect of the first therapy of a trauma patient.

Published: January 2023

Медицинские информационные системы и эталонные подходы при разработке их информационных моделей все чаще основываются на принципах, моделирующих три различных типа информации. Это - данные о пациентах, терминология и поддержка принятия медицинских решений. Между этими тремя типами моделей требуются четко определенные интерфейсы. Основными проблемами, которые возникают при определении таких интерфейсов, являются взаимодействия между онтологическими и логическими выводами. В статье представлен подход, основанный на разработке программного обеспечения, ориентированный на концептуальную схему, где надлежащим образом предоставляются концептуальные примитивы, предназначенные для определения статических, динамических и диалоговых аспектов

Medical information systems and reference approaches in developing their information models are increasingly based on principles that model three different types of information: patient data, terminology, and medical decision support. Well-defined interfaces are required between these three model types. The main problems that arise when defining such interfaces are the interactions between ontological and logical conclusions. The paper presents a concept-driven software development approach, where conceptual primitives are appropriately provided to define static, dynamic, and conversational aspects.
Applying Paul’s Theological and Ethical Teachings in Romans 12:1 to an African Context
Authors: Boaheng Isaac
Published: January 2023

One of the key challenges facing Christianity in contemporary Africa is ineffective discipleship. The African church has won many converts in recent times and yet, the continent is among the least performing continents in terms of socio-economic development. The reason for this observation is that many African Christians consider Christianity as a religion of the heart and consequently, do not care so much about what they do in the public arena. In a context like this, Paul’s concept of the transformed life (explained in Romans 12:1) has the potential of correcting misconceptions about Christianity and empowering African Christians to engage the public sphere with their faith. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a textual analysis of Romans 12:1 to develop Christian ethics for (Africa) believers. The paper used a literature-based research approach and collected data from such sources as commentaries, articles and dissertations. The main thesis is that living a sacrificial life involves a total dedication to God in response to his gracious mercies manifested toward the believer. The paper contributes to Christian ethics, Pauline studies and African Christianity.
Bartolina Xixa baila en un basural: cuerpo, sonido y performance de una colonialidad permanente

Bartolina Xixa desarma el relato de una argentinidad blanca, heteronormada y homogénea, a través de su arte transformista. Al bailar una vidala usando como escenario un basural a cielo abierto, cuestiona la cultura afectiva del folklore y presenta una estructura de sentimientos elaborada sobre la experiencia de la exclusión permanente. Bartolina lleva a la coreografía el movimiento que la desplaza entre diferentes identificaciones: se muestra como “vestida”, indígena, de género fluido, fronteriza y precaria. La vidala titulada “Ramita seca”, mediante la fusión de sonoridades provenientes de la vidala y el rap, ofrece formas de retención que permiten elaborar una narración colectiva del dolor incorporando lo abyecto, lo excluido y lo antagónico a la narrativa del folklore. “Ramita seca” interpretada por Bartolina, propone la emergencia de un folklore de resistencia que habilita otros repertorios sociales y estilos emocionales bajo los cuales devenir sujeto.
Del disco Siembra al sencillo “La gozadera”: el mito mestizo de la integración latinoamericana
Authors: González César
Published: January 2023

Este artículo presenta un análisis comparativo entre el disco Siembra de Rubén Blades y Willie Colón y el sencillo “La gozadera” de la agrupación Gente de Zona. Esta comparación se propone entre dos productos musicales de alta difusión a nivel mundial, en los que la representación de la integración latinoamericana está en primer plano. Las dos propuestas pretenden construir un discurso sonoro y textual sobre lo latino y los latinos. En función de esto, buscamos analizar las continuidades y discontinuidades en la forma en que la salsa y sus derivados han afrontado la latinoamericanidad de acuerdo con los distintos contextos de producción que enmarcan estos trabajos. Para ello, combinamos análisis formal y de contenido con algunas reflexiones de orientación sociológica. La selección de un LP y un sencillo se justifica en el hecho de que en los 70`s la industria del disco se centraba mayoritariamente en la promoción de LPs, y en las últimas décadas lo ha hecho en relación con los singles.

INTEGRATION OF PALLIATIVE CARE INTO MEDICAL SCHOOL CURRICULUM IN NEPAL – An analytical study among medical students in Nepal
Authors: Bellon Carlotta , Shah Tara , Shah Anish
Published: January 2023

Introduction

The holistic approach of palliative care aims at improving the life of patients with life-threatening diseases and their families through early identification, assessment, and treatment of physical, psychological, or spiritual pain. Despite the recognition of palliative care as a human right and essential for the improvement of the quality of life of patients – and their families, many low-income countries either lack palliative care services or have limited access to it. The WHO suggests that one of the steps that countries can take to eliminate these barriers is to include palliative care into the core curricula of all new health professionals. A study in 2019 showed that 58,000 adults required palliative care in Nepal in 2012, and most of them lived in rural areas. Palliative care in Nepal is still new and training programs for doctors and nurses are not fully developed and in place in undergraduate medical schools.

This study evaluates the working knowledge of palliative care among undergraduate medical students, and the presence of it in their academic curriculum.

Methods

This analytical study was designed during an internship at the Binaytara Foundation Cancer Center in Nepal. The study was conducted among undergraduate medical students between March 6th, 2020 to July 6th, 2020. The questionnaire results were entered on Microsoft Excel and then analyzed.

Results

Results showed that 63.2% of the respondents had heard of “Palliative Medicine”, but 68.4% did not know the WHO definition of Palliative Care (Table 2 (135189)). Among all the students from the different universities, 33.3% said that palliative care is part of their curriculum, while 66.6% said it is not (Table 5 (135192)).

Conclusions

The results from the study demonstrated inadequate knowledge and perception of palliative care among undergraduate medical students in Nepali institutions. The EAPC indications on a palliative care curriculum could be taken as a blueprint for developing a tailored one for medical schools in Nepal to set a strong base for the next generation of doctors to be able to appropriately meet the needs of patients and their families.
Well beyond the 60s? The impact of a pandemic on the growth of the older population
Authors: Camarano Ana Amélia
Published: January 2023

Contrary to expectations that the first decades of the 21st century would experience an increase in lived time, the 2020s cast doubts on the future of old age. The Brazilian population is expected to increase until 2030, when it will reach its maximum, with a total of approximately 215 million inhabitants. A trend of population decline was already in progress and had already been documented, but the pandemic accelerated this process. This study describes a set of projections for the older Brazilian population. The projections were elaborated using the main components method, whose advantages are the possibility of separately projecting the behavior of the three demographic variables (fertility, mortality, and migrations) and obtaining results disaggregated by sex and age groups. Birth data for 2018, 2019, and 2020 suggest a 3.51 and 5.28% decrease in total births between 2018 and 2019 and 2019 and 2020, respectively. Preliminary data for 2021, which indicate the continuation of this trend between 2020–2021, show a 2.32% reduction in the number of births. The hypotheses raised for the mortality patterns, if proven to be accurate, suggest a life expectancy of 72.8 years for men and 76.2 years for women at the final period of the projection, resulting in gains of 4.6 and 2.0 years, respectively. Despite these gains, the levels obtained in 2019, pre-pandemic, would be reached by the male population only between 2035 and 2040.

Sacha Polak's Dirty God and the Politics of Authenticity
Authors: Biernoff Suzannah
Published: January 2023

Dutch director Sacha Polak’s Dirty God (2019) is the first narrative film with a female lead whose scars are real, and arguably the first to tackle the assumption that scars (especially on a woman’s body) are shameful or tragic. Vicky Knight, who plays Jade, a young woman rebuilding her life after an acid attack, has talked about the revelation of seeing her body on screen after enduring years of abuse because of her appearance. Polak ‘saved my life’ she says, by enabling her to see her scarred body as beautiful, ‘a piece of art.’ Like any art form, film has the potential to be transformative, and in interviews both Knight and Polak have repeatedly spoken of their work in those terms. This article uses Dirty God to think about what is at stake in the dismantling of stereotypes and the reclamation of beauty — a goal shared by many disability rights campaigners. Made at a time when escalating cases of acid violence in London were making headlines around the world, Polak’s film prompts comparisons with Katie Piper’s Beautiful (2011) and other survivor memoirs. Privileging imperfection over repair and fragility over strength, it challenges existing portrayals of disfigurement and, in the process, offers a more radical understanding of beauty and authenticity.
Dante e fumetti: Ricadute nella didattica, suggestioni divulgative
Authors: Somà Mariano
Published: January 2023

Dante’s Divina Commedia is one of the most influential literary works in Italy and not only. Reading, understanding and analysing it are a fundamental part of the skills every Italian student should reach, due to the national school programs, particularly in middle and high school. Many Italians and internationals comics’authors worked on Divina Commedia, feeding the collective imagination about Dante, giving new readings of popular suggestions – in this paper, we’ll partially analyse Marcello Toninelli’s and GōNagai’s works, as influences in didactics, but also as peculiar products, with a universal approach, inspired by Dante’s world. So comics can also be considered didactic media. In fact students can be involved in a process where they could build their own comics based on Divina Commedia. Considering both Divina Commedia and comics linguistic media, every student will be able to join a travel from literature to comics and back, creating a final original product, testifying comprehension and personalization of the original literary work.
«Auf dem Kopf gehen». Il discorso sulla follia nel Lenz di Georg Büchner
Authors: Liguori Daniela
Published: January 2023

The essay aims to analyse Georg Büchner’s novel Lenz as a viable argument on madness that overturns the Cartesian perspective of Metaphysical Meditations. In the itinerary of the mind which leads the thinking subject to the self-understanding as res cogitans –  the “still and immobile” starting point for understanding the idea of God and thus unravellling the doubt about the very existence of the world and of its own corporeity – Descartes excludes madness considering it what is – and must remain – extraneous to thought so that through the exercise of doubt it can reach reliable knowledge that regulates man’s existence in the world and allows him to get out of doubt as to whether the world is a dream that does not exist ‘outside’ the mind.

In this way, a human subject is outlined who does not know the suffering, nor does he experience the dramas of real existence, the fragility and vulnerability of finiteness. In the novel Lenz Büchner instead gives voice to a poet torn to the point of madness that suffers from doubt about the existence of God, of the world and of his own self. This leads to a discourse on madness as a pathological verse of human existence, a discourse that relates about the darkest parts of the human soul, that is, those eluding any clinical opposition between reason and madness and that represent, for this reason, an extraordinary trial for our main metaphysical categories.
Abstract Life
Authors: Robinson Keith
Published: January 2023

In this paper I will argue that Deleuze, Whitehead and Bergson share a similar approach to abstraction, an approach that is fundamentally ‘pragmatist’ (broadly construed, close to James Williams’ ‘fantastic’ pragmatism). Leaning on William James one name for this shared approach methodologically is radical empiricism and is best understood in my view in the context of process philosophy. Although, they share a similar approach I will point out some differences between the radical empiricists in the way they think about some of their own key abstractions engaging the themes of relation, becoming and space-time. All three thinkers give us abstractions for thinking life as the creation of the new.
Conan, el niño del futuro (1978): alegoría de la lucha contra el sistema hegemónico
Authors: Delgado Del Aguila Jesús Miguel
Published: January 2023

Conan, el niño del futuro (1978) es un dibujo animado oriental que plasma a una sociedad futurista que ha sobrevivido a la Tercera Guerra Mundial. El personaje principal, un niño de 10 años, aparece en la historia para impedir que el grupo hegemónico continúe con su pretensión de dominar el mundo, sin importar la tiranía que ejercen contra los ciudadanos. Para lograr ese vil propósito, las autoridades de Isla Industria han incurrido en escenarios en los que se observa la esclavitud, la dificultad para expresarse con libertad y el sometimiento obligatorio a las decisiones del sistema. Esas actitudes no solo revelan un contexto recreado en un mundo ficcional, sino que es latente al apreciar las revueltas sociales de la actualidad. A ese tipo de manifestación por los derechos, se le agrega otra modalidad correlativa: la censura. Esta se concreta de forma implícita y sutil, con el objetivo de que las víctimas desacrediten sus derechos y no reclamen ante los abusos frecuentes de un gobierno que los sanciona, los encarcela o los exilia con injusticia. Su condición de peligro para la hegemonía es esencial, porque puede acarrear una toma de conciencia para los demás pobladores y una posible rebelión. Para finalizar, esta investigación se valdrá de las teorías poscoloniales e interculturales para evidenciar cómo un proyecto político se instaura en un anime japonés y, en especial, en el protagonista que desea reorientar a toda una sociedad, junto con ese sistema represivo inherente.

The Use of Youtube in Health Communication: A Study on the Uses of Augmented and Virtual Reality
Authors: ÜNLÜ Simge , YAŞAR Lütfiye
Published: January 2023

In this study, the use of social media within the scope of health communication will be discussed. The study aimed to analyze the social media use of companies in the health sector using augmented and virtual reality within the scope of health communication. The study is essential since there is no research on health communication of health companies using augmented and virtual reality technology. While the health companies using the augmented and virtual reality technology of the universe of the study constitute the sample, the Youtube channel of the XRHealth company is selected by random sampling method among these companies. The Youtube channel contents of XRHealth company were analyzed with the content analysis method in the Maxqda program, and the following results were obtained: Shares were made about primary health care services, health promotion/development, and preventive health services. Among these topics, preventive health services were mainly included. Within the scope of preventive health services, videos about doctors, patients and pieces of training for both doctors and patients are published. In addition to rehabilitation services within primary health care services, virtual and augmented reality services and diagnosis-treatment services were included in the video contents. Content aimed at least promoting and improving health has been produced on the Youtube channel. As a result, a high concentration of protective and primary health care services in video content reveals the importance of AR and VR technology in terms of health education in society.
Post-war Spatial Production in Mrs Dalloway
Authors: TABUR Şemsettin
Published: January 2023

The present study examines Virginia Woolf’s Mrs Dalloway as a cartographic work mapping the intricacies of post-war experience in London. The novel, telescoping all of its action into one single day and foregrounding mobility and space, captures the pervasive effects of the Great War and its ramifications on the individuals and on society, and this spatially-oriented literary analysis of it investigates the diverse yet relational processes of spatial production. To this end, the physical spaces, dominant discourses and the characters’ negotiation of their lived spaces will be addressed by referring to the spatial theories of scholars such as Henri Lefebvre and Edward Soja. Mrs Dalloway, as a critical textual space, charts the convergence of the private and the public, the lived and the imagined, the past and the present, and thereby contests the dominant spatial discourses as defined and prescribed by the social system.
TÜRKÇENİN FONETİK POETİKASI: ALİTERASYON VE ASONANS
Authors: KUYUMCU Elif
Published: January 2023

Bir dilin sahip olduğu sesler ve seslerin arasındaki uyum, o dilin müziğini teşkil etmektedir. Türkçenin ünlü ve ünsüzleriyle repertuvarı geniş bir dil olduğunu söylemek yanlış olmayacaktır. Türkçede yazımda gösterilmeyen ancak telaffuzda farklı şekillerde kullanılan ünlüler ahengi sağlamaya hizmet ederken Türk dilinin sesler arasında uyum arayışı, şiirler dışında günlük hayatta bile müzik gibi duyulmasını sağlar. Türkçenin müziğe elverişli bu yapısı fonetik poetikası gereğidir. Güçlü bir fonetik poetikaya sahip olan Türkçe, aliterasyon ve asonans olarak adlandırılan şiirsel ses sanatlarında oldukça başarılı bir dildir. Asonans ve aliterasyon “dil sazı” gibi düşünülecek olursa ünlüler ve ünsüzler de sazın telleri olarak tahayyül edilebilir. Bu saz, sesiyle hem estetik bir duyuşa hem de psikolojik işleve zemin hazırlamaktadır. Seslerin insan psikolojisi üzerindeki etkisi ve seslerin sosyal dünyanın izlerini taşıması, en az sanatsallığı kadar önem arz etmektedir. Yansıma seslere sahip olması nedeniyle sözcüklerinde gerçeğin sesini yansıtan Türkçenin müzikalitesi, onu asonans ve aliterasyona elverişli bir dil yapan seslerinde gizlidir. Aliterasyon ve asonans genel olarak aynı sesin tekrarı olarak düşünülse de sesler arasındaki benzerliklerle de oluşturulabilir. Yapısı itibariyle benzerlikleri destekleyen ve uygulayan Türkçe, ifade gücüyle dev bir orkestradır.
2006-2011-2017-2018 Ortaöğretim Almanca Dersi Öğretim Programlarının Karşılaştırılması
Authors: YAPRAK İbrahim Halil
Published: January 2023

Bu çalışmanın genel amacı 2006-2011-2017-2018 Ortaöğretim Almanca Dersi Öğretim Programlarını programın amaçları, yapısı, temel özellikleri gibi genel hatları ile birbiriyle karşılaştırmaktır. Öncelikle ülkemizde gerçekleştirilen yabancı dil eğitimi reformları çerçevesinde ikinci yabancı dil olarak Almanca eğitiminin ortaöğretim kurumlarındaki 2000’li yıllarının başından günümüze dek olan tarihsel sürecine kısaca değinilmiştir. Bu bağlamda Almanca eğitimi için hazırlanan Almanca Dersi Öğretim Programları kronolojik sıraya göre incelenmiş ve bu programların ortak ve farklı yönleri ortaya konmuştur. İncelenen dört öğretim programına bakıldığında hepsinin ortak noktasının Diller için Avrupa Ortak Başvuru Metnin temel aldığı 6 basamaklı bir dil düzeyinin esas alınmasıdır. Yine bu programların benzer yönlerine bakıldığında öğrenci merkezli ve iletişimsel bir yaklaşımı benimsediği görülmektedir. Dilin bir iletişimsel araç olarak görüldüğü bu programlarda günlük yaşamdan konulara yer verilmiştir. Genel anlamda birbirinin üzerine inşa edilmiş bu programların en kapsamlısı 2011 Almanca Dersi Öğretim Programı iken 2017 yılında yapılan değişikliklerle Almanca Dersi Öğretim Programı daha sade bir hal almış ve son olarak 2018 yılında ufak birkaç değişikliğe gidilerek güncellenmiş ve o tarihten itibaren ortaöğretim kurumlarında uygulanmaktadır.
Kentlileşme ve Aidiyet Bağlamında Sosyolojik Bir Araştırma: Ankara Örneği
Authors: YILMAZ Musa , AKYÜZ Niyazi
Published: January 2023

Bu çalışma, Ankara’nın Keçiören ilçesine bağlı Yükseltepe ve Şehit Kubilay mahallesinde kentsel dönüşüm uygulamaları ile mekânın değişimi sonucunda, bireylerin kentlileşmeye dair kente özgü tutum ve davranışlarda ortaya çıkan farklılaşmaları belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu kapsamda, araştırmaya katılan katılımcıların kentlileşmeye dair görüşleri ve deneyimleri; kimlerin kentli olduğu, kentli bireyin en önemli profilinin ne olduğu, kendilerini kentli hissedip hissetmedikleri, yaşadığı yerde kalış süresi ve aidiyet duygusu gibi konular üzerinden incelenmeye çalışılmıştır. Araştırma nicel yönteme dayalı bir saha araştırmasıdır. Araştırma evreninden örneklemin elde edilmesi aşamasında, olasılığa dayalı örneklem tekniği uygulanmıştır. Araştırma verilerinin elde edilmesinde ise, yüz yüze anket tekniği uygulanarak 405 kişi ile anket yapılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgulara göre, araştırma bölgesinin önceki sosyal yapısı her ne kadar gecekondulu davranış kalıplarına sahip olsa da kentsel dönüşüm uygulamaları sonucunda mekânın dönüşümü ve kentle bütünleşme süreci, kentlileşmeyi de beraberinde getirdiği sonucuna varılmıştır. Bununla beraber, Ankara’da kalış süresi arttıkça, bulunduğu yere aidiyet hissetme oranları da artmakta olduğu ortaya çıkmıştır. Sonuç olarak, kentsel mekânda kalış süresi, hem aidiyet hissini artırmakta ve yaşanılan mekâna uyum sağlama ile bütünleşme sağlamakta hem de kentlileşme sürecinde, daha fazla kente özgü sosyo-kültürel deneyim ve donanım kazandırmakta olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
