Divanlarda Çocukla İlgili Kavramlar, Terkipler ve Manzumelere Dair Bir Deneme
Authors: ATAR Muhammed Kürşat , KİRAZ Seydi
Published: April 2023

Klasik Türk şiirinde aşk, sevgili, şarap, tabiat, güzellik, sevinç, özlem, acı gibi farklı konu ve temalı şiirler yazılmıştır. Bu konulardan biri de çocuk ve çocukla ilgili unsurlardır. Beyit ve müstakil şiirlerde, çocukla ilgili mazmunların tespitine ve pedagojik ilkelerin belirlenmesine imkân sağlayan önemli bilgilere yer verilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, çocuk konulu bilgilerin tespiti, tasnifi ve tahlili yapılmaya çalışılacaktır. Verilerin tespitinde 14-20. yüzyıllarda yaşamış bazı şairlerin divanları esas alınmıştır. Çocukla ilgili edebî tasvir ve tahlillerden önce çocuk kavramı, çocuğun farklı disiplinlere göre tanımları ve çocukluk döneminin sınırları üzerinde durulmuştur. Daha sonra çocuk kavramını karşılayan sözcükler belirlenmiş, geldikleri dillere göre Arapça, Farsça ve Türkçe başlıklara ayrılmış, şiirde kazandığı anlamlar incelenmiş ve hangi sözcüklerin şairler tarafından daha çok tercih edildiği tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çocukla ilgili edebî yaklaşımların ele alındığı kısımda ise çocuğa has özelliklerin beyitlerde nasıl işlendiği, çocuk konulu atasözü ve deyimlerin kullanımı araştırılmıştır. Çocuğun teşbih unsuru olarak hangi kavramlarla ilişkilendirildiği ve bir telmih unsuru olarak çağrışımları üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışmanın son kısmında ise çocuk konusu etrafında kaleme alınan müstakil manzumelere yer verilmiştir. Çocukların doğumu, ölümü ve sünneti gibi konularda yazılan bu manzumeler çeşitli başlıklar altında incelenmiş, karşılaşılan sonuçlar sayısal verilerle ortaya konularak birtakım değerlendirmelerde bulunulmuştur.
Homeros’un Gölgesinde Gelibolu’ya Sefer: Patrick Shaw-Stewart
Authors: CEYHAN AKÇA Nesime
Published: April 2023

Çalışmanın amacı, İngiliz askeri Patrick Shaw-Stewart’ın Gelibolu muharebesi esnasında yazdığı şiir ve mektuplarından hareketle kendisi ve yakın arkadaşlarının (Rupert Brooke, Denis Browne, Bernard Freyber, Frederick Kelly) ruhsal durumu, İliada destanının etkisiyle savaşta neyi hedefledikleri ve Türk askeri hakkındaki düşüncelerini Nitel Araştırma Tekniklerinden ‘Doküman/Metin İçerik Analizi’ metodunu kullanarak ortaya koymaktır. Türk harp edebiyatı çalışmalarında yaşadığımız savaşların bize bakan cephesi ilgi görmüşken bizimle savaşmaya gelen askerlerin ürettiği edebi ürünler ihmal edilmiştir. Karşı tarafın savaşları nasıl gördüğü, geldikleri coğrafyada neler yaşayıp ne hissettikleri, yaşadıkları sonlar da bizi ilgilendirmektedir. Shaw-Stewart, Britanya’da ‘savaş şairi’ olarak anılır, ancak şairin Gelibolu muharebesiyle ilgili tek şiiri bulunmaktadır. Orijinal metinde şiirin başlığı olmamasına rağmen bazı kaynaklarda ‘Bu sabah bir adam gördüm’ veya ‘Siperdeki Aşil’ başlığıyla okuyuculara sunulur. Shaw-Stewart ve arkadaşlarının zihinlerinde İliada Destanından parçalar olduğu hâlde heyecanla başladıkları yolculuk, umduklarından zor, keder yüklü ve uzun bir sefer olur. Shaw-Stewart’ın yolculukla ilgili umudunun azaldığı ve kendisini sorguladığı bir anda Gökçeada’da yazdığı şiiri, Gelibolu Savaşlarını temsil eden en önemli şiirlerden biri haline gelir. Shaw-Stewart’ın yazdığı şiir ve mektuplar iyi yetişmiş İngiliz gençlerinin Gelibolu’ya mitolojik hikâyeleri yeniden yaşamak ve İstanbul’u Türklerden almak üzere maceracı bir ruhla geldiklerini gösterir. Bu beklentileri gerçekleşmez ve sağ kalanlar umulandan çok büyük kayıplarla Avrupa’daki diğer cephelere dağılırlar.

Published: April 2023

O artigo parte de uma distinção entre as práticas rituais e as práticas teatrais, ancorando-seem teorias antropológicas, para propor uma abordagem conceitual para o teatro ritual,especificamente para o jogo-ritual. Utilizam-se como referência bibliográfica primária osestudos de Victor Turner e de Martines Segalen acerca dos rituais e de Robson Haderchpeksobre o teatro ritual. A partir de narrativas de experiência de atores e atrizes em processode formação integrantes do Arkhétypos Grupo de Teatro (RN), são problematizados osestados de transe e as experiências místicas diversas durante os processos de criação,realizando paralelos entre a prática mediúnica, os estados de transe e a arte do ator/daatriz. A conclusão deste artigo caminha no sentido de evidenciar a relação entre metafísicae poética, sugerindo que a experiência do sagrado gera um escape momentâneo doconceito de “humano” forjado pela modernidade.

mar em azulejos
Authors: Zortéa Adriel Dalmolin , Pugliese Vera
Published: April 2023

O artigo investiga a obra Celacanto provoca maremoto, realizada entre 2004-2008, por Adriana Varejão (1964) ao lado de questões teóricas abertas pela noção de Pathosformel, cunhada por Aby Warburg (1866-1929), e seus desdobramentos pensados por Georges Didi-Huberman (1953). Para além das camadas de elementos históricos, a instalação produzida pela artista para a galeria dedicada à sua obra no Instituto Inhotim, é investigada a partir de três eixos: a Pathosformel do corpo em movimento acentuado; a relação entre ethos e pathos contida na captação de uma forma transitória pela dureza de um azulejo; por fim, a experiência do espectador diante da imagem acessada em sua dimensão empática. O texto confronta a referida imagem com outras imagens, segundo uma lógica associativa.

Authors: BAHANI ABDERRAHIM , Ech-Chhibat El Houssine , SAMRI Hassan , AIT MAALEM Laila , AIT EL ATTAR Hicham
Published: April 2023

This paper presents a Multiple Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (MANFIS)-based method for regulating the handling force of a common object. The foundation of this method is the prediction of the inverse dynamics of a cooperative robotic system made up of two 3-DOF robotic manipulators. Considering the no slip in contact between the tool and the object, an object is moved. to create and feed the MANFIS database, the inverse kinematics and dynamic equations of motion for the closed chain of motion for both arms are established in Matlab. Results from a SimMechanic simulation are given to demonstrate how well the suggested ANFIS controller works. Several manipulated object movements covering the shared workspace of the two manipulator arms are used to test the proposed control strategy.

Published: April 2023

Distal radius-ulna fracture is one of the most common human osseous injuries, with incidence rate increasing worldwide. There are two peaks of prevalence: the first around the 10th and the second around the 60th year of life. During childhood, they are among the most common pediatric fractures accounting for 19.9 to 35.8% of all pediatric fractures. We reported a case of a boy 13 years old diagnosed as post open reduction internal fixation distal radius ulna et causa epiphyseal fracture. He came to rehabilitation outpatient clinic with chief complaint pain on his left forearm. He underwent a surgery two weeks ago at the distal radius ulna. The surgeon did osteotomy on ulna and then fixated with plate and screw. On physical examination, there were pain and range of motion limitation mainly on the forearm and wrist joint. The patient was treated with low level laser therapy at the surgical wound to promote healing and decrease edema, initial digital motion exercise along with active range of motion of the uninvolved joints. He was also educated about icing and medicamentation if pain still persisted. Once adequate bony healing had occurred, active, active-assisted, progressive passive wrist motion, and strengthening exercise using resistance were performed to maximize the result. At the end of rehabilitation program, there was great improvement on pain and also range of motion improvement. Albeit, there was still a slight range of motion limitation on ulnar deviation and wrist extension by 5 degrees. In conclusion, rehabilitation program is very beneficial in treating post-surgery patient using modalities and exercises to improve functional function.

EFFECT OF OXIDATIVE STRESS AND ROLE OF ANTIOXIDANTS IN CONSERVATIVE DENTISTRY AND ENDODONTICS
Authors: Balivada Akshita , Vinay Chandra R , I B Geeta , Jaichander Mrinalini
Published: April 2023

Oxygen is an ubiquitous element and an important substance for life on earth especially for human life and it can both be benecial and harmful to life. High and soaring concentration of oxygen are found to be toxic, and can damage tissues. When cells use oxygen to generate energy in the form of ATP in the mitochondria, free radicals are created. Excessive free radicals formation that is not counteracted by the removal, creates 'oxidation stress' which is associated with various oral and systemic destructive diseases. Dental treatment with the use of composites, amalgams, glassionomers, materials for root canal lling or irrigation, or whitening agents can disturb oral redox homeostasis by affecting the antioxidant barrier and increasing oxidative damage to salivary proteins, lipids, and DNA. It is suggested that the addition of antioxidants to dental materials or antioxidant therapy applied during dental treatment could protect the patient against harmful effects of oxidative stress in the oral cavity

Authors: Muley Gayatri , Bakhshi Girish
Published: April 2023

Background Surgical wound is any wound inicted during surgical process and infection of surgical wound is a relevant complication with an incidence of 1% to 3%. Many factors are responsible for the occurrence of surgical site infections, like age, presence of comorbidities, type of procedure, wound closure method, level of contamination etc. Surgical Site Infection or SSI is associated with a signicant economic burden in terms of extended length of stay and increased costs of treatment. Objectives- To determine whether the incidence of surgical site infections differed after wound closure with non-absorbable suture material vs skin stapler, in elective abdominal surgeries. Methods- A comparative study to determine the incidence of surgical site infections after elective abdominal surgery was conducted in a tertiary care setup for a duration of one year. The study population was divided by random computer method in two arms, consisting of 30 patients each. In one arm the abdominal wound after elective surgery was closed with non-absorbable sutures while in the other with skin staplers. Outcomes were noted in terms of Surgical site infection, i.e, presence of wound gape, burst abdomen, closure duration, duration of hospital stay and interventions like secondary suturing, daily cleaning and dressing (CnD) Results- A total of 60 patients who underwent elective abdominal surgeries were divided into two arms of 30 patients each. Wound closure in one group done by non-absorbable suture material while in the other group with skin stapler. The groups were comparable in demographics, ASA (American society of Anaesthesiologist) grading and CDC (Centre for disease control) class of surgical wound. In our study, Surgical site infections were detected in 33.3 % (10 patients) in the sutured arm of closure of abdominal incision, while SSI were detected in 26.6 % (8 patients) of stapled arm of closure of abdominal incision. No signicant difference encountered in the incidence of SSI in sutured and stapled closure of abdominal wound. 76.7% (23 patients) underwent wound closure within 10 minutes in the stapled arm, while only 20 % (6 patients) in the sutured arm had surgical time duration of wound closure less than 10 minutes (p value < 0.001), the wound closure duration in the stapled arm was signicantly less compared to the sutured arm. Conclusions- There was no signicant difference in the incidence of surgical site infections in both the groups, but the surgical time duration of wound closure was signicantly lower in the stapled group.

Published: April 2023

Background: Vitamin D deciency is prevalent among obese individuals. Some authors have postulated that Vitamin D is sequestered in the excess adipose tissue, leading to less bioavailability, whereas others suggest that low Serum 25-hydroxy Vitamin D may be a result of volumetric dilution of vitamin D in the large adipose stores. Aim: To study and compare the Vitamin D levels in Obese and Non-obese diabetic female with obese and Non-obese nondiabetic females. Method & Materials: The present study was conducted in the Department of Medicine, MLN Medical College & SRN Hospital, Prayagraj to assess Vitamin D levels of diabetic and non-diabetic obese and non-obese females. A total of 115 diabetic female patients attending Clinic fullling the inclusion criteria and giving consent were included as Cases and 115 female non-diabetic patients without active or chronic problems attending different departments were included in the study. Serum samples of all the participants were collected for estimation of 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH vitamin D). Quantitative determination of 25- hydroxy vitamin D (25- OH vitamin D) in human serum is done by chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA). Result: Majority of Controls had Normal Vitamin D levels (52.2%) , on the other hand only 1.7% cases had normal Vitamin D levels. Vast majority of Cases (98.3%) had Vitamin D deciency. Higher percentage of Cases were found to have mild and severe vitamin D deciency as compared to that in controls. [Mild Vitamin D deciency -12.2% vs. 11.3% in cases and controls respectively and severe Vitamin D deciency - 86.1% vs. 36.5% in cases and controls respectively] . Difference in vitamin D status of Cases and Controls was found to be signicant statistically. Serum Vitamin D levels of Controls (29.18±20.31 ng/ml) was found to be signicantly higher as compared to Cases (9.06±6.03 ng/ml). Conclusion- Mean serum vitamin D levels were signicantly lower in Diabetic females as compared to that in Non-Diabetic females.Obesity was associated with a signicantly lower vitamin D levels in both Diabetic females as well as Non-Diabetic females.

CT Brain was done which was suggestive of gross dilatation of both the lateral ventricles and fourth ventricle and thinning of the cortex was seen. A detailed ophthalmological evaluation was done which showed reduced ocular motility, lagophthalmos and right esotropia. Fundus examination showed bilateral primary optic atrophy with blurred margins of the optic disc. The Results – clinical history, detailed ophthalmological examination and investigations suggest that hydrocephalus and thinning of the cortex led to retrograde optic atrophy in this patient. Hydrocephalus and thinning of the cort Conclusion – ex led to retrograde optic atrophy. Due to high degree of thinning of the occipital lobe caused by hydrocephalus, we do not expect the patient's visual functions to develop in future.

Simplifying the implementation of machine safety on LVMCCs
Authors: Marques Roberto , Rivera Gabriel , Newbern James , Johnson Jonathan B
Published: April 2023

When parts of a machinery control system are required for risk reduction of a hazard, they are considered a safety function. A typical safety function is comprised of safety input and output devices which are monitored and controlled by a safety logic device. Emergency stop buttons and guard door interlocks are typical safety input devices which are often remote, and field wired. Safety relays are typical safety logic devices and safety contactors, and variable frequency drives (VFDs) are typical output devices which are commonly located inside of a Low Voltage Motor Control Center (LVMCC). Safety functions must be engineered and implemented according to relevant machinery safety standards. Despite having common design requirements, safety functions often require customized engineering when applied to a LVMCC. 

This paper serves as an overview of how to promote standardization in the implementation of safety functions when using LVMCC’s. Standardization reduces delivery times of safety rated LVMCC units, decreases overall cost of acquisition of a safety rated LVMCC, and enables users to maximize operational productivity while assuring a proper design of the safety function.

The selection of standard safety rated motor controller units as safety function subsystems enables users to minimize personal and enterprise risk when engineering new safety functions.

Published: April 2023

This paper presents the design, implementation and validation of a M-Class PMU on a general purpose embedded controller, concurrently used for inverter and grid control tasks, deployed over a unified real-time control environment. The rising number of embedded controllers in active distribution grid opens an opportunity for shared computation and instrumentation resources. Unified real-time control environments can efficiently coordinate multiple embedded controllers, IOs and models from different toolchain. The PMU in this paper, is implemented within the NI Veristand real-time control environment at CoSES laboratory in TU Munich. It uses the existing instrumentation and controller setup for inverter and prosumer control in an active distribution grid laboratory. The PMU passes all Mclass device accuracy tests set by the IEC/IEEE 60255-118-1 standard. The output is compliant to the IEEE-SA C37.118.2 messaging standard and connected to an open source PDC software. The proposed solution demonstrates the possibility of merging different grid control and operation functionalities within the unified Veristand RT control environment.

Assessment of Dietary Pattern for Patients with Peptic Ulcer
Authors: AL-Bahadli Athra'a karim Hussein
Published: April 2023

Objective: To assess dietary pattern that may contribute to the occurrence of peptic ulcer as risk factors and find out the relationships between dietary pattern indicators and some demographic characteristics (age groups& gender) of the patients with peptic ulcer.
Methodology: A descriptive study was carried out in liver and digestive disease hospital and Al-Kadhmiya Teaching Hospital in Baghdad city during the period of March/13/2012 to June/10/2012. A purposive (non- probability) sample was selected that consisted of (100) patients with peptic ulcer their age between (20-60) years old. A questionnaire format and observational checklist were used which consist of three parts the first part includes demographic information of the sample, the second part includes risk factors information and the third part includes dietary pattern indicators distributed to (18) items. The data were collected through the utilization of questionnaire and the structure interview technique with peptic ulcer patients, the interview with each patient took approximately (12-15) minutes. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistical measures which included frequencies & percentage, as well as the use of inferential statistical measures which include Chi- Square (X2) and p-value.
Results: The results of the study sample have revealed that more than one third of patients with peptic ulcer were with the age group(20-29) years, mostly females, college graduate, married and government employee (officer). However, the greater number of these patients were non smoker and not drinking alcohol. Most patients with peptic ulcer were (63%) always eat hot foods.
Conclusions; The study concluded that there was a significant differences between dietary pattern indicators with age and gender.
Recommendations: The study recommended that:
1- Educational program should be designed to increase people information toward the disease and to reduce the risk of peptic ulcer.
2- A booklet should be prepared and presented to patients with peptic ulcer as guide for the management of the disease.

Authors: Ismail Kameran Hassan , Khidder Bushra Baker
Published: April 2023

Background: Hypertension is a powerful risk factor for fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular disease events, and many randomized trials showed that hypertension control is associated with a decrease in incidence of stroke and coronary heart disease.
Objective: This study was carried out to identify the prevalence of, and factors associated with, uncontrolled hypertension in a group of hypertensive patients in Erbil.
Patients and methods: A cross sectional study was carried out. A convenience sample of 400 hypertensive patients attended outpatient clinics at Rizgary teaching hospital in Erbil city was included. This study was extended of 1st April 2011 through 31st March 2012. The data were obtained by a direct interview with the patients using a questionnaire a specially designed questionnaire. The statistical package for social sciences (SPSS, version 18.0) was used for data entry and analysis.
Results: The prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension was (58.8%). The prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension among males hypertensive patients were 61.8%.and among females were 57.5%. The Logistic regressions analysis of uncontrolled hypertension showed a statistically significant association between uncontrolled hypertension with current smoker (OR=8.77), regularity of treatment (OR=0.296), exercise (OR= 0.414) and type of antihypertensive drugs: diuretics (OR=11.938), ACEI (OR=7.907) beta blockers (OR=7.096), and CCB (OR=7.169).
Conclusions: More than half of the hypertensive patients were uncontrolled. The factors associated with uncontrolled hypertension were smoking, lack of exercise, irregularity of treatment (non adherence to treatment).
Recommendations: There is a need to stimulate researches and further studies, such as complete community-based case ascertainment.
