Authors: Çambay Zafer , Adsiz Taner , Keser Serhat , Mayda Domaç Füsun
Published: June 2024

Worldwide, cerebrovascular diseases rank third as the cause of death after heart diseases and cancer, and ranks first as the cause of handicap and disability. It is a disease that needs to be well known and recognized, especially due to the high risk of mortality in the acute period and the severe loss of function in the majority of surviving patients, requiring long-term care and assistance. In this study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature and to examine the relationship between thyroid dysfunction and cerebrovascular diseases in patients with hyperlipidemia. When the patient and control groups were evaluated in terms of blood lipid levels, HDL levels were found to be significantly lower in the patient group compared to the control group. VLDL, TG and cholesterol levels were found to be significantly higher in the patient group compared to the control group. The T3 value was found to be statistically significantly lower in the patient group. In some cases such as hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism and hyperlipidemia, it may not show serious clinical symptoms, which increases the importance of these investigations. We believe that the detected thyroid dysfunction and dyslipidemia treatments will decrease the acute stroke prevalence and improve the prognosis.

Authors: Yılmaz Mücahit , Kebiroglu Hanifi
Published: June 2024

2-Acetoxy benzoic acid (2ABA) can produce structural changes in the molecule when dissolved in different solvents depending on factors such as solvent polarity, Hydrogen bonding and solvent interactions. Therefore, quantum chemical calculations were performed using Gaussian 09: AS64L-G09RevD.01 software. The structural changes of the 2ABA molecule in the presence of solvents were recorded by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy in the 4000-0 cm-1 range. Additionally, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy was employed to examine changes in chemical shift values associated with the dissolution of the molecule. In another phase of the study, the geometric parameters of the optimized molecules, atomic charges, intensities of the vibrational bands, and vibrational frequencies were calculated using Density Functional Theory (DFT). These calculations were performed at the DFT/B3LYP level with the LanL2DZ basis set, providing a detailed analysis of solvent effects at the molecular level. This study offers significant insights into the interactions of solvent environments with molecular structures and contributes to potential drug development processes.
Liquefaction hazard of Wellington reclamations based on conventional analysis
Authors: Cappellaro Claudio , Dhakal Riwaj , Cubrinovski Misko
Published: June 2024

Severe liquefaction-induced damage occurred in reclamation fills at the port of Wellington (CentrePort) in the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake, but little or no damage was reported in areas of older and shallower reclamations in central Wellington. Recent studies have therefore primarily focused on understanding the liquefaction hazard of the port, while little is still understood with regards to the fill characteristics and liquefaction potential of the Wellington reclamations outside CentrePort. This study utilizes data from comprehensive field investigations, including 58 new cone penetration tests (CPTs) performed both within and outside the port in the Wellington waterfront area, supplemented with over 100 CPTs from our previous studies at CentrePort, to characterize the liquefaction resistance of the reclaimed fills in Wellington. The geotechnical data is first used to define simplified schematic soil profiles and to determine characteristic CPT parameter values (25th–50th–75th percentiles) for fills encountered in different reclamation areas. These analyses highlight differences in the soil profiles, and the relative similarity in the estimate of liquefaction resistance based on conventional CPT-based assessment, of fills encountered in different reclamation areas despite differences in the age, techniques, and materials employed in the construction of these reclamations. Conventional liquefaction assessments of reclamation fills based on CPT data are then performed over the wider waterfront area for a range of earthquake scenarios and ground motion intensities relevant for Wellington. For recent, past earthquakes, correspondence between predicted and observed severity of the manifestations of liquefaction vary depending on the earthquake event and area of observations. Likelihood of liquefaction occurrence and severity of the effects of liquefaction are then discussed for characteristic return periods, in the context of the seismic hazard of Wellington.

Critical care specialists, the missing link in organ procurement for transplantation
Authors: Gonzalez Cohens Francisca Del Rocio , Gonzalez Fernando M
Published: June 2024

The procurement process for organ donation begins with the identification of potential organ donors in emergency or critical care units (CCU), followed by their clinical evaluation, diagnostic procedures, and therapeutic interventions, mostly conducted in CCUs. It concludes with the request for organ donation and, if accepted, the retrieval of organs. Despite most interventions occurring in detection units, there has been a neglect of the strategic role played by critical care specialists (CCS) in managing and caring for brain-dead or near-brain-death patients. Questions arise: Are they willing to undertake this responsibility? Do they fully comprehend the nature of organ procurement? Are they aware of the specific interventions required to maintain possible organ donors in optimal physiological condition? Our objective is to examine the role of CCS in organ procurement and propose ways to enhance it, ultimately aiming to increase and enhance organ donation rates.

Cloud storage providers have widely integrated data deduplication techniques to manage the exponential growth of data. Various secure strategies for data deduplication have been developed to bolster the security of client data within shared storage environments. One critical area of focus is ensuring Re- encrypting deduplicated encrypted data in a safe and effective manner, which has garnered significant attention from researchers. However, recent investigations have uncovered vulnerabilities in the lightweight encrypted deduplication technique with rekeying awareness (REED), particularly susceptible to an assault via a stub-reserved. In response, We provide a reliable data deduplication method that uses effective re-encryption. leveraging Combined Win Big or Bust Transformation (CAONT) and segments that were chosen at random from the Sprout channel. Our approach is resilient protects sensitive data privacy and is resistant to the stub- reserved assault through one-way hash functions. Furthermore, our method minimizes computation overheads by requiring data owners to re-encrypt only a fraction of the package using CAONT, rather than the entire package. Through rigorous security analysis andexperiments, we validate the efficacy and safety of our re- encryption strategy.

Published: June 2024

Eco-innovation has been viewed as a tool for protecting the environment since the 1990s. The impact of external financial factors on eco-innovation is expected to reduce waste, air pollution, and the use of materials and resources. However, the effect of eco-innovation on economic and environmental performance has received little attention. More specifically, since the 1990s, eco-innovation has begun to be viewed as a tool to protect the environment. Eco-innovations are expected to reduce waste, air pollution, and the use of materials and resources. However, the impact of eco-innovation on financial and environmental performance has received little attention. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can function better, thanks in large part to the social fabric of the organization. In addition, there is a positive correlation between eco-innovation and GSCM, and these concepts significantly affect the development of CE capabilities. Our last conjecture shows a critical link between GSCM and CE skills. Our findings suggest that relationships between ideas for overarching design are more difficult to establish through more direct or indirect management of multiple tiers of suppliers and that major companies are expanding in ways that are likely to promote sustainability while bringing in sizeable New research questions.

In the dynamic landscape of the 21st century, Generation "Z" and Millennials face unique challenges requiring skills beyond technical knowledge, known as Soft Skills. These skills emerge as catalysts to overcome previous paradigms and mitigate work-related mental disorders like burnout. Innovative approaches, including the development of socio-emotional skills from university, not only boost productivity but also enhance the quality of life and mental health of young individuals. The review followed five methodological steps to ensure rigor and reproducibility. This included the defining research question (PICO method) and keywords, a Boolean scheme for search, eligibility criteria for articles, a selection from portals like PubMed, Science Direct, Lilacs, and Google Scholar, and result analysis using spreadsheets for article discussion. The inquiry into the benefits of Soft Skills for Generation "Z" and Millennials guided the article search. Using the Boolean scheme "generation" AND "soft skills" AND "work" AND "quality of life," 16 articles were found, with four meeting the selection criteria. Additionally, five articles were included for theoretical supplementation. The discussion emphasizes the necessary adaptations of youth to the 4.0 economy era, marked by volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity (VUCA). These changes affect entry into the workforce, causing insecurities, uncertainties, and impacts on quality of life and mental health. The need for interpersonal skills and soft Skills is highlighted, with studies identifying ten essential competencies for success in the Fourth Industrial Revolution and Society 5.0. Universities should integrate the teaching of these skills to prepare students, improving their adaptability and mental health. Academic and work programs should emphasize personality development and values to facilitate the transition of recent graduates. It is concluded that, given the complexity of the 4.0 economy, youth face challenges in the job market, affecting quality of life and mental health. Soft Skills are crucial for this adaptation. Universities should integrate them into the curriculum, and academic programs should emphasize personal development to ensure an effective transition.

Bu araştırma Ordu ili Aybastı ilçesinin gastronomi kültürünü incelemeyi hedeflemektedir. Bu kapsamda yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formları kullanılarak beş katılımcı ile görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Verilerin analizi aşamasında betimsel ve içerik analizlerinden faydalanılmış olup, temaların oluşturulmasında MAXQDA programı kullanılmıştır. Öğünler, kutsal günler, eğlence amaçlı etkinlikler, sofra adabı, araç-gereçler ile gelenek ve görenekler adı altında altı ana tema oluşturulmuştur. Temalara yapılan kodlamalar sonunda en fazla kodlanan kelimeler sırasıyla yemek, sarma, misafir, börek, çorba ve tatlı, fasulye ve keşkek olmuştur. Sabah kahvaltılarında peynir, siyah çay ve su böreğinin, öğle ve akşam öğünlerinde keşkek, sarma ve sebze yemeklerinin oldukça fazla tüketildiği ayrıca ikindi ve yatsı öğününün beslenme rutininde fazla yer almadığı yapılan çalışma sonucu elde edilen bulgulardandır. Aybastı’da etten hazırlanan tava yemeğinin meşhur olduğu yapılan görüşmelerde tespit edilmiştir. Kutsal günler bağlamında bayramlarda baklavaların ve keşkeğin sıklıkla tüketildiği, kesilip, dağıtımı yapılan etten kalan payın genelde kavrulduğu tespit edilmiştir. İlçe genelinin cenaze sonrası mevlit geleneği gerçekleştirdiği bir diğer elde edilen bilgilerdendir. Nevruz Bayramı’na ilişkin bir veri elde edilemezken ilçede Perşembe Yaylası Festivali ve Hıdırellez Festivalinin kutlandığına yönelik verilere ulaşılmıştır. Sofralarda belli başlı kuralların uygulandığı ve sofranın hazırlığı, sofra etrafında oluşan kültür gibi noktalarda da kadın figürünün ön planda olduğu söylenebilmektedir. Araç-gereçlerden yer sofrası ve sacın önemi katılımcıların da yorumlarıyla desteklenmektedir. Gelenek ve görenekler başlığı altında söz-nişan-düğün, sünnet, yol misafiri, imece, cenaze, asker uğurlama ve doğum dönemine dair ritüeller irdelenmiştir.

Turizm sektöründe sürdürülebilirlik ilkesini benimseyen tesis ve destinasyonlara, çevreye gösterdikleri duyarlı faaliyet ve işlemler için çevre ve kalite yönetim sertifikaları verilmektedir. Sertifikalar, çevreye saygılı ürünlerin tercih edilmesine, doğal kaynakların korunmasına ve çevresel yönetim vizyonunun oluşmasına destek vererek, turizmde önemli bir konumdadır. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın amacı, sürdürülebilir turizm adına önemli bir nokta olan ulusal ve uluslararası sürdürülebilir turizm sertifikalarının kriterlerini kıyaslayarak benzerlik ve farklılıkların açıklanması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma, kavramsal boyutta incelenmiş ve ikincil veri kaynaklarından yararlanılmıştır. İnceleme sonucunda konaklama işletmelerine verilen ulusal ve uluslararası sertifika kriterlerinin birçoğunda sertifika programının kuruluşundan itibaren güncelleme yapılmadığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca, ilgili sertifika programlarında genellikle Küresel Sürdürülebilir Turizm Konseyi (GSTC) ve Avrupa Birliği (AB) kriterlerinin tercih edildiği ve konaklama işletmeleri için sürdürülebilir yönetim anlayışı, su kullanımı, enerji yönetimi, personel eğitimi, ziyaretçilerin çevre konusunda bilgilendirilmesi ve teşvik edilmesi, hayvanların korunması, atık yönetimi gibi kriterlerin sağlanması gerektiği tespit edilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda sertifika kriterlerinin teknolojik ve mimari ilerlemelerle eşgüdümlü olarak güncellenmesi, sertifika kriterlerinin ülkelere hatta bölgelere göre değişiklik göstermesi ve asgari puan sınırlandırması yerine puan seviyelerine göre sertifika kademelerinin oluşturulması (bronz, gümüş ve altın) belirtilmiştir. Çalışmanın, turizm sektöründe sürdürülebilirlik uygulamalarının geliştirilmesi ve değerlendirilmesi açısından literatüre katkı sağlayacağı öngörülmektedir.

Ekoturizm faaliyetleri yerel kültür, yerel halkın kalkınması ve sürdürülebilirlik gibi unsurlarla harmanlanarak doğa ile iç içe kurgulanması gereken bir turizm türü olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Sahip olduğu sorumlu turizm özellikleriyle ve süreçte yer alan tüm paydaşların sürdürülebilir davranışlar göstermesinin önemli bir unsur olmasından dolayı paydaşlarına ekoturizmle ilgili bilgilendirme ve farkındalık eğitimleri sağlanması gerekmektedir. Bu kapsamda ülkemizde verilen ekoturizm eğitimlerini analiz ederek eğitim kapsamında yer alan konu başlıklarını ve içeriklerini saptayarak ekoturizm eğitimlerin odaklandığı unsurların tespit edilmesini sağlamak amaçlanmış olup çeşitli anahtar kelimeler belirlenerek ulaşılan 38 ekoturizm eğitimi çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Elde edilen verilere göre ekoturizm eğitimleri 2010 yılından itibaren uygulanmaya başlamış olup genellikle Kalkınma Ajansları yürütücülüğünde işleyiş sağlamıştır. Hedef kitle olarak işletmelerin ve yatırımcıların yanı sıra ilgililer adı altına genel bir kitleye hitap eden ekoturizm eğitimlerinde genel bilgilendirmelerin yanı sıra ekoturizm alanlarında yapılacak aktiviteler, işletmecilik ve farkındalık gibi konularda odaklanma olduğu görülmektedir. Bu kapsamda ekoturizm faaliyetlerinde yöresel ürün ve yerel kültürlerin ön planda olması gerektiğinden ekoturizm eğitimlerinde kültürleri korumak ve kültürün değişime uğramadan en öz hali ile gelecek nesillere aktarımının sağlanması için birtakım öneriler getirilmiştir
