Published: June 2022

Lübnan, uzun yıllar yaşadığı iç karışıklıkları ve yönetsel sorunları günümüzde de zaman zaman yaşamaya devam etmektedir. Bu sorunların temelinde ülkenin çok dinli ve çok kültürlü yapısının önemli bir etkisi bulunmaktadır. Ülkenin içi işlerine müdahale etmek isteyen ülkeler için uygun zemini sağlayan bu çeşitlilikler ise yüzyılı aşkın süredir ülkenin temel sorunu olmaya devam etmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, dini ve kültürel farklılıklar temelinde Lübnan yönetsel yapısının nasıl şekillendiği ve mevcut durumunun ortaya konulmasıdır. Lübnan Anayasası ve literatür incelemeleri doğrultusunda, ülkedeki yasama ve yürütme erklerinin paylaşımının dini ve mezhepsel dağılıma göre yapıldığı ancak cumhurbaşkanının yetkilerinin geniş tutulduğu ve inanç grupları arasında zaman zaman dış müdahalelerin de etkisiyle güç ve yetki mücadelesinin devam ettiği görülmektedir. Demokratik geleneklerin yeterince yerleşmediği toplumlarda demokrasiyi sağlamak adına yapılan bu tür bir temsil anlayışının başarılı olamadığı ve ülkeyi dış güçlerin müdahalesine açık hale getirdiği sonucuna ulaşılmaktadır.

Objective: The plantaris is a muscle in the back of the leg that has a short body and a long, thin tendon. The muscle acts functionally with the gastrocnemius. Due to removal of the muscle does not cause a change in limb function, it is used as a potential source of graft. The aim of the present study was to investigate the morphological features and possible variations of plantaris in fetal cadavers.Methods: This study was carried out on the fetal cadaver collection of University of Necmettin Erbakan, Faculty of Medicine, Anatomy Department. 11 male and 9 female fetal cadavers (ages range: 28 to 40 weeks) were used. The muscle belly length (LB), width (WB) and thickness (TB) were measured. The plantaris insertion was classified into 4 types. Furtermore, the distal part of the tendon was classified as the fan-shaped and flat-shaped.Results: It was determined that plantaris was present in 36 of 40 (90%) lower extremities and absent in 4 (10%). The average muscle belly length (LB), width (WB) and thickness (TB) was found 13.29±3.73 mm, 4.72±1.77 mm and 3.65±1.17 mm, respectively. It was observed that the plantaris tendon often (Type 2, 67.5%) inserts in the anteromedial of the calcaneal tendon. Furthermore, the most common insertion type was observed as flat-shaped (86.11%). Conclusion: We believe that the data obtained from our study will be useful in procedures such as flexor tendinoplasties, reconstruction of hand tendons and lateral ankle ligaments, and repair of atrioventricular valves, which are planned to be performed in infancy and childhood.

OBJECTIVE: The COVID-19 pandemic has been affecting our world and all people for 2 years and It has been the subject of many studies that have been published in the literature. Common result of these studies is that the pandemic has increased people's stress levels and also many papers report the negative impact of the pandemic on private patient populations, such as those with chronic diseases, but there are no clinical studies in Turkey that have revealed the effects of pandemic restrictions on patients with rheumatic diseases yet. Our study aims to evaluate the effects of quarantine and restrictions imposed during the COVID-19 pandemic on patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis.

METHOD: This study was carried out in the USAK province of Turkey with patients with ankylosing spondylitis aged 18-65 years. After a detailed literature review, a 35-question questionnaire was prepared. This survey was aimed at determining the treatment routines and habits of patients during the COVID-19 restriction period, such as exercise and nutritional status. At the same time, the effects of the closure and restriction period on the mental health of patients were investigated.During this period, the availability of doctors and medicines of patients was questioned.

RESULTS: All participants reported an impact of lockdown. 43.7% reported lesser exercising levels than before the lockdown. These patients mainly consumed more vitamin C (65.7), as media advice for the public. However, despite specialist advice, some patients consumed more alcohol (21.4%). 78% of the patients reported sleep-wake rhythms markedly changed under restriction and the majority of patients could not go to a rheumatologist for follow-up.

CONCLUSION: The majority of the AS did not consult specialists or physicians during the lockdown period but most of them continued their medications to control the disease activity.

Purpose: We evaluate the appearances of the brain metastases (BMs) detected by brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) on 18Fluor-Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT).

Patients and methods: SCLC patients who had an 18F-FDG PET/CT scan and a brain MRI within 30 days for initial staging were included. MRI was used to detect BMs. The imaging results of BMs on 18F-FDG PET/CT were assessed. On the 18F-FDG PET/CT study, the BMs were classified as undetectable, hypometabolic, hypermetabolic, or mixed patterns (lesions with both hypermetabolic and hypometabolic parts).

Results: A total of 51 patients [48 (94.1%) of whom were male and 3 (5.9%) female, with an average age of 62.57 ± 9.64] were included in this study. Fifteen patients (29.4%) were in the limited stage, whereas 36 patients (69.6%) were in the extensive stage. In 11 individuals, MRI indicated 28 BMs. On 18F-FDG PET/CT, 13 of the 28 metastases were visible. The following were the BMs appearances on 18F-FDG PET/CT: hypometabolic (n: 4), hypermetabolic (n: 6), and mixed (n: 3). While the mean diameter of BMs detected in 18F-FDG PET/CT was 16mm; the mean diameter of undetected ones was 4.3 mm.

Conclusion: On 18F-FDG PET/CT, BMs can have a variety of appearances, including hypometabolic, hypermetabolic, and mixed patterns. On the other hand, failure to detect millimetric size BMs in 18F-FDG PET/CT prevents proper staging.

Authors: YILMAZ Farise , ÖNNER Hasan , KARA GEDİK Gonca
Published: June 2022

Background: The aim of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography-Computed Tomography (SPECT-CT) over planar imaging in distinguishing benign from malignant foci and patient management after 131I ablation therapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC).

Material and Methods: Planar and SPECT-CT imaging findings were retrospectively analyzed in 80 patients who received I-131 therapy for thyroid cancer. Possible foci in whole body scanning (WBS), neck, and thorax were compared with SPECT-CT. Anatomical localization of the foci and differential diagnosis of the benign and malignant lesion was made with SPECT-CT. Those without anatomical counterparts were recorded as equivocal foci. According to the 2015 American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines, patients were divided into three groups: High, intermediate, low-risk groups. Interpretation changes between both scannings were recorded as downstage and upstage.

Results: There were 53 female and 27 male patients. The patients' age ranged from 21 to 88 years with a mean age of 47 ±14.2. In 80 patients, 139 foci were detected in planar images and SPECT-CT images (neck: 118, thorax: 21). SPECT-CT revealed that 50% of the lateral neck foci were compatible with pathologies in malignant nature and 50% with pathologies in benign nature. Foci in the middle part of the neck were found to be not only thyroid remnant (56%), but also thyroglossal duct remnant (40%) foci at a significant rate It was determined that 66% of the foci in the thorax region were lung metastases and 34% were bone metastases. It was proved that 33% of the foci in the mediastinal region were lymph nodes. Although only one of the remaining patients had a pathological diagnosis, it was thought that all of them might have thymus pathologies. SPECT-CT images changed the interpretation of 18 patients (22.5%), of which 5 (6.25%) were upstage and 13 (16.25%) were downstage.

Conclusions: The use of SPECT-CT will be very effective, facilitating patient management and avoiding unnecessary procedures, especially in moderate/high-risk patients with suspicious focal lesions. The presence of benign iodine avid foci (thyroglossal duct residue, etc.) in the neck showing iodine uptake other than the thyroid remnant may be effective in making ablation decisions in low-risk patients.

Introduction: Irrational drug use is a severe problem affecting public health, increasing morbidity, mortality rates, and treatment costs. Healthcare personnel has important responsibilities in this regard. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of pharmacists, assistant pharmacists, and pharmacy technicians.Materials and Methods: Pharmacists, assistant pharmacists, and technicians working in pharmacies registered in an urban area were reached. Volunteers with the support extended to literature Turkey Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency, Department of Rational Drug Use ‘Survey of Hospital Pharmacists were required to be filled out online.Results: 156 pharmacy personnel voluntarily participated in the study. Of the volunteers, 48.1% were pharmacists, 4.5% pharmacy assistants, and 47.4% pharmacy technicians. 59% of the participants declared that they did not receive training on rational drug use. Among pharmacy technicians, this rate is 73%. All pharmacies monitor the drug monitoring with electronic devices or instant measurements by the responsible persons; 99.4% of the participants stated that they informed the patient about the storage conditions of the drug, and 84% informed the health personnel about the drug with a special preparation condition. 18.6% of the participants reported one or more adverse events in the last two years. It has been determined that there is no complete standardization in the disposal of residual/waste drugs for drugs from patients.Conclusion: In order to organize rational drug use training for pharmacy technicians, implement a standard method for waste residual medicine management, and increase feedback on pharmacovigilance practices, it is necessary to encourage the staff.
A Rare Diagnosis in the Emergency Department: Renal Infarction
Authors: GÜRGER Mehtap
Published: June 2022

Objective: Renal infarction (RI), which is caused by sudden cessation of renal blood flow, is a rare disease. In this study, we planned to investigate the demographic and clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients diagnosed with renal infarction in the emergency department.

Material and Methods: Patients over the age of 18 who presented to the emergency department with abdominal/flank pain, nausea, and vomiting between 2010 and 2021 and were diagnosed with acute renal infarction in contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography were included in the study. The data of the patients were reviewed retrospectively. Demographic and clinical characteristics, as well as laboratory results of the patients, were recorded.

Results: A total of 38 patients were included in the study. The mean age of the patients was 61.8±18 years and 63.2% (n=24) were male. The most common complaints of the patients were abdominal pain (84.2%), flank pain (68.4%), and nausea-vomiting (50%). More rarely, patients complained about chest pain, dyspnea, and fever. Acute renal failure developed in 4 patients (10.5%). While only three (7.9%) of the patients had no known disease, the others had comorbidities such as hypertension (31.6%), ischemic heart disease (31.6%), previous thromboembolic events (31.6%), diabetes (26.3%), cancer (23.7%), heart failure (21.1%), and atrial fibrillation (18.4%). The most common cause of RI was cardioembolic events (44.7%), followed by hypercoagulability (28.9%), renal artery damage (15.8%), and idiopathic causes (10.5%).

Conclusion: Acute RI is a disease that is rarely detected in the emergency department. Because there is a lack of specific clinical findings, it is often overlooked or diagnosed late. Delay in diagnosis can significantly cause morbidity and mortality. The diagnosis of acute RI should be considered especially in patients with a high risk of thromboembolism and who present to the emergency department with complaints of unexplained abdominal or flank pain.

Authors: YİĞİT Metin , KARAGÖL Cüneyt
Published: June 2022

Aim: Our study aimed to assess the knowledge and attitudes of parents of pediatric patients presenting at our pediatrics outpatient clinic about the rational use of antibiotics.
Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, we had face-to-face interviews with parents of children. Scale forms and questionnaires were filled out after the interviews.
Results: The mean level of knowledge of the parents about the rational use of antibiotics was found to be 55.33±7.77; their attitude level was 66.37±10.02. The more parents were educated, it was seen that knowledge and attitudes improved, but it was also observed that attitude levels fell and knowledge levels were not affected the older the parents were. Of the parents, 15.2% were found to keep antibiotics on hand in the house, 7.2% wished to have antibiotics sold without prescription, and 5.5% gave their children antibiotics without a prescription. Additionally, the level of attitudes toward the rational use of antibiotics were 2.6-fold lower in males and 5.6-fold lower among parents who kept a stock of antibiotics at home.
Conclusion: The high levels of knowledge and attitudes of the participants regarding the rational use of antibiotics constitutes an important finding and is a promising outcome. It is clear that families, especially those parents who are lesser educated, fathers, and the elderly need to be more informed on this subject. Multiple-site studies with more participants and controls that can represent a range of different socioeconomic circumstances should continue to be regularly conducted.

Authors: Susila Tirta
Published: June 2022

This article aims to explore a form of holistic pastoral assistance of pastors for bereaved families in the congregation of GKE Nanga Bulik Lamandau Regency. The method used in this study is with a qualitative descriptive approach. The results showed that holistic pastoral assistance for bereaved families in the GKE Nanga Bulik Congregation was carried out through the ministry of the Word during the Mourning Service. Pastoral assistance still does not reach the problems faced by the congregation as a whole or holistically in a state of mourning. Pastoral Counseling is a guide to the person who is in trouble how he can get out of the problem and be able to overcome it himself if at some point the problem comes again and he can solve by remaining based on the faith and word of God who can overcome how severe the problem is faced.

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menggali bentuk pendampingan pastoral holistik pendeta bagi keluarga berduka di jemaat GKE Nanga Bulik Kabupaten Lamandau. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini ialah dengan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pendampingan pastoral holistik bagi keluarga berduka cita di Jemaat GKE Nanga Bulik dilakukan melalui pelayanan Firman pada saat Ibadah dukacita. Pendampingan Pastoral masih belum menjangkau persoalan yang dihadapi oleh jemaat secara menyeluruh atau secara holistik dalam keadaan berdukacita. Pastoral Konseling adalah pembimbingan kepada orang yang sedang bermasalah bagaimana ia bisa keluar dari permasalahan tersebut dan mampu mengatasinya sendiri jika pada suatu saat kelak kembali masalah itu datang dan ia dapat menyelesaikan dengan tetap berlandaskan iman dan firman Tuhan yang sanggup mengatasi betapa beratnyapun masalah yang sedang dihadapi.
The Semantics and Theology of Joy in the Philippians: A Revision of William G. Morrice’s Thesis On Joy
Authors: Hendi
Published: June 2022

Joy is a fundamental doctrine in Christianity since it is the core message of the gospel and the fruit of the Spirit that distinguishes Christians' lives.  William G. Morrice particularly investigated this issue, and this article tries to revise his thesis of joy to be more comprehensive. Joy must be viewed as a concept or meaning rather than a single word. With a discourse analysis approach and semantic domain, the writer tries to complete Morrice's research by improving his method, which only examines eleven synonymous words of joy. The Philippians is chosen as a sample discourse because this is the epistle of Joy from the Apostle Paul. Joy in the Philippians is a matter of relations with God (as Morrice views) and believers' relations with others (church), personal, ministry and mission, and material needs, and the environment.

Authors: Mikkelsen Thomas R. , Breer Camilla B. , Nissen Kari K. , Christiansen Karin
Published: June 2022

Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the use of genetics/genomics (G/G) knowledge and competencies in a Danish nursing context.Methods: Using a qualitative approach, thirteen Danish nurses representing different parts of the Danish health care system were interviewed about their experiences with G/G in daily practice. One focus group interview was conducted face to face, and nine individual semi-structured interviews were conducted partly face to face, partly online due to Covid-19 restrictions. Data were analyzed through systematic text condensation using the NVIVO13 tool (QSR International).Results: We identified five themes: 1) The nature of genetics; 2) Knowledge about genetics; 3) The roles of the nurse; 4) Nurses’ engagement with patients and relatives; 5) Patient pathways. Ethics was a recurrent theme in all five themes.Conclusions: The Danish nurses interviewed generally hold a narrow understanding of genetics i.e. defining it as heredity. They are involved in G/G aspects of care, although the extent and nature of this involvement varies considerably between different care settings. Hence, it seems unlikely that all nurses will require the same G/G knowledge and competencies. Nevertheless, the nurses share the belief that they should possess some basic knowledge about G/G to perform adequate nursing care. Their current knowledge about G/G is typically informed by practice and to a very small degree by their formal education. They agree that G/G literacy will be a general requirement in future nursing. Some of the nurses consider personalized medicine to be the golden road to better patient treatment and care. Some request more knowledge about G/G topics and a vocabulary to communicate adequately with doctors, patients and relatives on these issues. The importance of ethics is emphasized throughout the interviews.

Authors: Hoang That Ton Lan
Published: June 2022

In this paper, the effects of three types of porosity on bending behavior of functionally graded porous (FGP) beams are studied. The finite element procedure is established and based on the simple Timoshenko beam theory. The results achieved in this paper are presented and compared with other results in the references to verify the feasibility of implementing the formula and writing the Matlab code. On the other hand, this paper can help researchers to have an overview of the bending behavior of the functionally graded porous beams.

Published: June 2022

In this paper, the adsorption of Congo red dye from an aqueous solution using chitosan-coated pumice (CCP) has been studied. The abundant natural pumice from Irind mine (Republic of Armenia) was successfully activated by an acid activation method and modified with chitosan. The adsorbent was applied as a low-cost, and environmentally-friendly adsorbent for Congo red dye removal from aqueous solution. The modified pumice samples were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). To study the adsorption behavior of Congo red dye on modified pumice, the batch adsorption method was used. The effects of operating parameters on Congo red dye adsorption on modified pumice were examined, including adsorbent dose, pH, contact time, and starting concentration. Solutions of Congo red dye concentrations before and after adsorption were measured by UV-Vis Spectrophotometer (Cary-60). The wavelength of 3.799 nm-1 corresponds to the dye's maximum absorbance, and the obtained spectra revealed that no peak was found above the threshold after modifications.
Analysis of the Structure of the Dispersed Gas Phase Produced in Turbulent Foam-Concrete Mixers
Authors: Morgun Vladimir Nikolai , Morgun Lyubov Vasiliy , Nagorsky Viktor Vladimir , Gebru Berhane Kumenit
Published: June 2022

It was noted that the overall stability of foam concrete mixtures made by single-stage technology depends significantly on the measure of distribution of the dispersed gas phase involved in the mixing. The effect of the gas phase structure on the foam concrete mixture was evaluated by the value of the current consumed by the concrete mixer. The results of the experimental studies have shown the relevance of the scientific justification of mass transfer phenomena, that occur during mixing of raw materials in an industrial turbulent mixer. It was found that the process of dispersion of large-sized gas inclusions formed in the foam concrete mixture in the initial period of high-speed mixing is characterized by achieving the maximum power consumption at the mixer shaft.  Then there is a slight decrease in energy consumption, in which there is an additional distribution of the dispersed gas phase, sufficient to attain stability of the foam concrete mixture.
Beyond the Label: A Patient-Centred Approach to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Authors: Briden Lara
Published: June 2022

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder affecting women of reproductive age. Importantly, it is not one disease with a single pathophysiology but is instead a heterogeneous syndrome with several underlying biological mechanisms. Careful diagnosis requires attention to the key symptom of androgen excess as well as the exclusion of similar disorders including hyperprolactinemia, late-onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and hypothalamic amenorrhea. A patient-centred approach to treatment requires further assessment of underlying drivers and mechanisms including neuroendocrine disturbance, insulin resistance, and adrenal hyperresponsiveness.
Graphic and Textual Elements in Selected Political Campaign Posters: A Stylistic Analysis
Authors: Cristobal Jay-ar
Published: June 2022

This study described and analyzed the selected political campaign posters using the stylistic approach.  The sources of data are the 13 political campaign posters of the 13 competing candidates for councillors in one of the municiplaities of Ilocos Norte, Philippines, during the 2019 National and Local Elections. The selection was based on accessibility and availability of the campaign posters which means that the posters were selected based on the case by which the posters were obtained and not by any political ideology or affiliation. The stylistic features of the political campaign posters were analyzed using the adapted models of Crystal and Davy (1969), Gosling (1999) and Seidman (2008). The model is centered on describing and analyzing the graphic and textual elements used in the selected posters. The analysis was carried out in order to identify and discuss the stylistic features of the images and words in the selected political campaign posters. The study revealed that the political campaign posters are essential visual communication means that the political candidates use in canvassing for votes. Graphetically, the political campaign posters used varied colors, images, tools/figures that convey meanings. They are designed purposely to entice the electorates to vote for the candidates. Textually, the syntax is simple. At the lexical level, the campaign posters used descriptive and emotive words to make the texts more appealing. Semantically, most of the posters used clear language to ensure clarity of message. Overall, the political campaign posters have positive portrayals of the competing candidates.

Ser profesores de matemáticas, contribuir en la formación de ciudadanos críticos para una sociedad democrática y en paz es complejo en un país como Colombia, pues la tradición investigativa en este campo es aún incipiente y guiada fundamentalmente por enfoques cognitivos importados. Parte de la investigación en educación matemática de nuestro país centra sus esfuerzos en la enseñanza de contenidos descontextualizados, con fines prácticos de mejorar puntajes en las pruebas estandarizadas. Por esto, reportar y estudiar las vivencias de un grupo de investigación en educación matemática (EdUtopía) que trabaja profesionalmente en ese escenario, bajo enfoques emergentes de naturaleza social, cultural y política, resulta interesante en la idea de analizar los desplazamientos teóricos-metodológicos alcanzados, así como los desafíos y consecuencias de tales desplazamientos. Este texto presenta tres aspectos del devenir de un grupo de profesores investigadores colombianos: su proceso de integración, las iniciativas y formas de organización que ha tenido hasta el momento, y el impacto y recepción de su trabajo dentro de la comunidad educativa colombiana. Presentar la trayectoria del grupo de investigación que hace contracorriente a una tendencia hegemónica sirve para crear estrategias, sub-versiones y alternativas hacia una democracia crítica, justicia social y procura del buen vivir.
Rome – An Empire of Integrated Elites
Authors: Zhekov Zhivko
Published: June 2022

One of the unique features of the Roman state-political model is the ability of Roman elites to integrate those of the conquered into their political, military, and social structures. This practice was unique for ancient societies and states, which, by conquering a territory, turn the conquered into a secondary social and economic factor that has no access to political and military power. The history of Rome is an example of how to build a powerful state through the constant gradual integration of conquered elites into institutions of power. The analysis of the policy pursued by the ruling Roman elite in relation to those conquered by the Romans shows that, over the centuries, they have followed the same political practice with varying intensity and some fluctuation. Roman history shows that, after a period of fierce military expansion and forcible subjugation, the Romans gradually shifted to a policy of integration, which in most cases was expressed in the gradual inclusion of local elites in the traditional Roman patron-client relations, and through them their involvement in Roman administrative and military institutions. After moving to live permanently in Rome, the most ambitious and intelligent representatives of these local elites gained access to Roman magistrates, and some of them even reached the highest Roman magistracies. In many cases, they even became one of the most influential politicians in ancient Rome during their time.
