Authors: Cakir Muhammet Ali , Kara Deniz , Cala Mervenur , Trak Sebnem , Ipek Zeynep
Published: December 2024

The development of technology and current conditions has enabled the diversification of studies on the foods, cooking techniques, and their effects on food composition. One of the emerging cooking methods in this context is molecular cooking, which is applied across various food categories, and offers numerous advantages beyond enhancing the appearance and taste of foods. Techniques such as sous vide, foaming, spherification, use of liquid nitrogen, powdering, flavor-aroma transfer, smoking, gelling, and ultrasonic application techniques are widely used in molecular gastronomy. The application of these cooking techniques can support consumer health by positively affecting the phenolic components and total antioxidant capacity of different foods, as well as promoting innovation in the food industry and presenting foods to consumers with attractive presentations. Moreover, molecular cooking techniques have the potential to innovate and transform the functional compounds of foods, diverging from traditional methods. These changes can significantly impact human health, necessitating a comprehensive evaluation and strategic approaches. This review investigates the effect of molecular cooking techniques on the functional compounds. Recent studies indexed in major databases were analyzed, and the data were systematically organized into tables, offering insights into the role of these techniques in shaping food composition.

ALINEACIÓN DINÁMICA Y LAS 6P: UNA HERRAMIENTA DE DIAGNÓSTICO SISTEMÁTICO CONTINUO DE LA TRANSFORMACIÓN DIGITAL ORGANIZACIONAL
Authors: Barrientos Jorge Washington , Efrón Alejandra Edith , Lopes Arouxa Tania María
Published: December 2024

This paper examines the post-Covid-19 pandemic digital transformation in organizations in Argentina. By combining proven methodologies such as dynamic alignment Gattorna (2009) and the Capabilities Maturity Model (CMM), the research team seeks a systematic analysis procedure that helps different organizations to design their digital transformation strategies in an operationally feasible way and based on the behavior and needs of the market in which they participate. In order to do this, the authors aggregate some of these activities in what they call "the 6Ps of digital transformation" (Preparation, Productivity, Precariousness, Prevalence, Prestige and Protection).
The results show that the combination of both methodologies can become a tool to work on the digital transformation in an organization with a positive impact on customers. It is suggested that this tool be used by an entity external to the organization, with certain periodicity, and with a more detailed diagnosis of dynamic alignment. Note that this is initial research, and the results and conclusions should not be generalized outside of the context studied.

Authors: Stein Andrés D. Daniels , Alarcón Iván , Treviño Carballo Daniel , Trujillo Contreras Diego A. , Camacho Sánchez Ricardo
Published: December 2024

Based on Becker’s family economics theory (1981) and Mincer’s earnings function (1974), the present study uses cross-sectional data from the National Survey of Households’ Income and Expenditure (ENIGH) and employs propensity score matching to determine marriage’s causal effect on labor income for households in Mexico. The key finding is that households led by a married couple have higher labor income than those led by a cohabiting couple; the effect’s magnitude is 3,597 quarterly pesos in 2020, 2,327 pesos in 2018 and 3,008 pesos in 2016. This result provides causal evidence to the marriage and income literature and conveys empirical support to the promotion of public policies seeking to formalize marital unions.

Authors: Kriger Pablo
Published: December 2024

This article recovers the content analysis as a research method for the social sciences. It aims to be a new impulse in studies that have legal normative data sources (laws, decrees, regulations, among others) in the investigation of historical periods or institutional structures. Describing moments in the backroom of the investigation, operational strategies proposed by various specialists are described, from which the reader can use themselves in their investigative process. Without blocking other theoretical-methodological alternatives that can better complement each process.
It is aimed especially at studies within economics, sociology, political science, and other social sciences that recover legislative documents in their samplings, whether under quantitative or qualitative models. Tasks and conditions for the segmentation and categorization of the analysis units are described, as well as the operationalization of variables, and alternatives for data analysis are analyzed. Likewise, this work seeks to offer frameworks that base the value of legal norms in the explanation of economic, social and political processes and institutions, for which it delves into the contributions of historical new institutionalism.
TELETRABAJO Y CAMBIOS ORGANIZACIONALES EN LOS REQUERIMIENTOS DEL PERSONAL A PARTIR DE LA PANDEMIA DEL COVID-19: IMPLICANCIAS DESDE LA PERSPECTIVA DE MUJERES JÓVENES PROFESIONALES
Authors: Villalobo Victoria Estefania
Published: December 2024

Since the 1973 oil crisis, there have been a series of socioeconomic shocks and transformations in business strategies within the context of economic globalization processes and the struggle to capture markets. The changes incorporated since 1970 are associated with the intensive use of "new technologies" called Cedrola Spremolla (2017). In this framework, from the ICT revolution, teleworking emerges as a new labor modality. Given the technological and organizational changes developed since the 1970s, business management strategies bring renewed interest in the qualification level of the human resources employed and therefore in the training of the workforce (Wehle, 2002).With the arrival of the health crisis caused by COVID-19, multiple organizations were affected by a situation in which physical contact between people has been restricted, and several have opted for teleworking as a work modality. We will particularly analyze the case of five interviews with young professional women, the incidence of remote work in certain organizations that have adopted this modality of work and the new dynamics that teleworking brings with it from the point of view of personnel requirements.In this way, we focus on analyzing how the members of the organizations perform when implementing teleworking and excellent are the new attitudes and skills that the workers perceive as necessary to carry out their tasks from remote work.

La inercia y el cambio en el presupuesto universitario argentino
Authors: Ruiz Matías , Doberti Juan Ignacio
Published: December 2024

Las universidades son instituciones que se caracterizan por la inercia de sus actividades y los condicionantes para instrumentar cambios drásticos. En este sentido, los estudiantes permanecen cursando carreras por un lapso típico teórico de al menos cinco años, las carreras no pueden cerrarse por los derechos adquiridos de los cursantes y los grupos de investigación requieren una estabilidad larga en el tiempo para desarrollar la transmisión artesanal e intergeneracional de los conocimientos, mecanismos y vínculos involucrados. En consecuencia, los cambios se producen con una cierta morosidad y más por añadidura que por sustituciones veloces.
La experiencia comparada muestra que algunos elementos adicionales contribuyen a dificultar los cambios. La construcción colectiva a través de órganos colegiados con representación de los diferentes claustros, la apelación inevitable a argumentos racionales sustentados con evidencia empírica, la presencia de objetivos múltiples y la existencia de actores diferenciados (estudiantes, docentes, no docentes, graduados, colegios profesionales, facultades, colegios secundarios, hospitales, etc.) con intereses no siempre concurrentes, llevan a la necesidad de contar con acuerdos complejos para instrumentar modificaciones.
En términos presupuestarios se observa que las asignaciones suelen ser estables como consecuencia de la inercia inherente a las universidades, con modificaciones menores en el corto plazo. Sin embargo, en el caso argentino, las fluctuaciones macroeconómicas han conspirado contra el mantenimiento de los recursos otorgados por el estado a las universidades nacionales. Por ello, existe una particularidad que vale la pena examinar.
Aportes al debate sobre la tributación en América Latina
Authors: Cetrángolo Oscar , Morán Dalmiro
Published: December 2024

Este libro presenta una serie de ensayos que, como homenaje a Juan Carlos Gómez Sabaini, un nutrido y prestigioso grupo de expertos en finanzas públicas ha decidido actualizar los diagnósticos y recomendaciones sobre la política tributaria en América Latina, tomando como referencia las contribuciones que Gómez Sabaini había realizado a lo larga de su larga trayectoria, central en los debates regionales sobre política tributaria. Se trata de una excelente oportunidad para poner al día una temática que cobra hoy especial vigencia al interpelar sobre el tamaño y características de la actividad estatal. 
Se trata del trabajo de 43 especialistas que a través de 27 ensayos se refieren a los diferentes aspectos de esta temática que se pueden agrupar en referencias generales a la importancia de la política tributaria en el desarrollo de los países; el análisis de la tributación más tradicional; las características de tributos menos frecuentes en países más desarrollados, pero muy utilizados en la región (especialmente en la Argentina); los nuevos debates sobre imposición correctiva y ambientales; la problemática vinculada con el federalismo fiscal; cuestiones de administración tributaria, y, por último, algunos análisis referidos especialmente a la Argentina.
7 tesis sobre el campesinado argentino contemporáneo
Authors: Colla Julia
Published: December 2024

In the last four decades, Argentine rurality has changed and, along with it, the conditions of subordination of peasant families to the capitalist system. From an ap-proach that values the class perspective and its dynamic transformation in an eco-nomic-social formation, this article proposes 7 theses on the current social experience of the traditional type of peasantry in the Argentine regions: the structural condi-tions of exclusion and social marginality; the desegregation of economic activities and pluriactivity; the eco-territorial turn, the dispute and construction of territories; the role of social movements in shaping peasant activism; the processes of re-eth-nization and ethnic re-emergence; agroecology and food sovereignty and incorpora-tion into the dynamics of statehood. In our view, these topics make up a “new ques-tion” in social studies, they function in an articulated manner and help to under-stand the structural conditions, the processes of identification and political struggle that the truly existing peasantry goes through.
El campo de lo común y lo común en el campo. Posibilidades, límites y alcances en la gestión colectiva de las experiencias de acceso a la tierra mediante el Instituto Nacional de Colonización en Uruguay (2005-2019)
Authors: Otero Martina
Published: December 2024

The article investigates and reflects on the forms of production of the common in collective experiences of land access, mediated by state intervention through the public policy of the National Colonization Institute (INC) in Uruguay. The period from 2005 to 2019, corresponding to the three administrations of the Frente Amplio government, is taken as a reference, during which the promotion of collective land access policies was one of the key initiatives.
Six collective experiences involved in livestock farming are examined, which reveal the implications of collective organization along with the emerging subjectivities, capturing the voices and experiences of the protagonists. The aim is to achieve a dynamic perspective that accounts for the conflicts and changes occurring both in the organization and in the formation of the subjects.
The perspective of Marxism and cultural studies enriches the discussion, bringing into dialogue the analysis of collective experiences in light of three central concepts: labor, culture, and the production of the common. The debates around these categories are essential for the current understanding of hegemonies and social relations in contemporary Uruguayan agriculture.
Revisitar la primera conversación sobre la cuestión agraria: ¿qué fue? ¿qué no fue? ¿qué es hoy?
Authors: Zorzoli Facundo
Published: December 2024

El objetivo de este trabajo es explorar y conversar con las problematizaciones de la cuestión agraria clásica para identificar temas aún vigentes en el siglo XXI. Para ello, los ejes que ordenan este ejercicio de exploración son: (a) ¿qué era la cuestión agraria?, (b) ¿qué no se preguntaba?, (c) hacer nuevas preguntas. Las obras de referencia de la primera conversación sobre la cuestión agraria son: El Capital, de Marx; El problema campesino en Francia y Alemania, de Engels; La Cuestión Agraria, de Kautsky; y El Desarrollo del Capitalismo en Rusia, de Lenin. Situamos esta conversación en coordenadas tempo-espaciales específicas de enunciación; esto es: el del ciclo sistémico de acumulación de capital de hegemonía británica; allí, momento de mayor intensidad en la primera conversación sobre la cuestión agraria fue la década de 1890. Finalmente, identificamos temas de la primera cuestión agraria vigentes en la conversación contemporánea del siglo XXI. Algunos de ellos, son temas clásicos; otros, han cambiado de forma a través del desarrollo del capitalismo en el agro a lo largo de más de un siglo; y otros tantos son temas que tuvieron poco protagonismo en la primera conversación, pero que hoy son insoslayables en la agenda contemporánea.

The project proposes the creation of an end-of-life tire recycling plant with a solid focus on sustainable and triple impact finance. It addresses three fundamental dimensions, economic, social and environmental. The main objective of the project is to design, build and operate a tire recycling plant that is financially profitable and environmentally responsible. This will be achieved through the transformation of used tires into high-quality recycled products using advanced recycling technology, which will include shredding, shredding and processing of used tires to obtain recycled raw materials. These raw materials will be used in the manufacturing of products such as rubber granules, modified asphalt and construction products, allowing for income diversification. The expected sustainable benefits are the reduction of waste, the generation of employment, the contribution to the local economy because it is expected to boost the economic development of the region by promoting the demand for recycled products. The project's financial approach is based on sustainability principles such as profitability, energy efficiency and access to sustainable financing. It will be carried out in phases, from planning and construction of the plant to its operation. A management team committed to sustainability will be established and training and compliance with quality and safety standards will be guaranteed. This presentation includes the development of the main idea and the initial analysis of the technical and economic-financial feasibility since it is in process.
PLATELET-RICH PLASMA IN ANTI-AGING AND AESTHETIC MEDICINE
Authors: Fedorchenko Yuliya
Published: December 2024

Skin aging is a multifactorial process influenced by intrinsic and extrinsic factors, leading to structural and functional deterioration, including wrinkles, laxity, pigmentation, and barrier dysfunction. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) has emerged as a novel regenerative therapy in anti-aging and aesthetic medicine due to its ability to stimulate collagen production, tissue repair, and neo-angiogenesis through autologous growth factors. PRP has demonstrated significant efficacy in improving skin texture, tone, and elasticity, particularly when combined with microneedling, dermal fillers, or fractional lasers. In addition to facial rejuvenation, PRP shows promise in treating androgenetic alopecia (AGA), enhancing hair density and thickness, and reducing shedding with minimal adverse effects. The treatment’s safety profile, versatility, and shorter recovery periods make it an appealing alternative to conventional anti-aging therapies. Despite its clinical potential, further research is warranted to standardize protocols, elucidate cellular mechanisms, and optimize outcomes for widespread application in aesthetic dermatology.
THE IMPACT OF FRAILTY ON DISEASE PROGRESSION OF SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS: A HYPOTHESIS
Authors: Gokcen Neslihan
Published: December 2024

Frailty, a multidimensional syndrome marked by diminished physiological reserve and increased vulnerability, hasemerged as a critical concern in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Both age-related inflamm-aging and disease-related chronicinflammation contribute to the higher prevalence of frailty in SSc patients compared to their age-matched counterparts. Frailty in SSc is strongly associated with adverse outcomes, including skin involvement, increased disability, physical inactivity, higher hospitalization rates, malnutrition, severe gastrointestinal symptoms, interstitial lung disease, and elevated mortality. This hypothesis posits frailty as an overlooked factor in the progression and severity of SSc. Early identification of frailty at its pre-frailty stage is essential. Implementing targeted preventative strategies could mitigate its impact, significantly enhancing long-term disease management and clinical outcomes for patients with SSc.
COLONIC IRRIGATION AND AGING: HYPOTHETICAL INSIGHTS INTO INFLAMMATION REDUCTION
Authors: Coskun Benlidayi Ilke
Published: December 2024

Colonic irrigation (colon hydrotherapy) is a procedure where water is applied to clean the colon of the contents it holds. Colonic irrigation has a theoretical rationale for improving systemic inflammation and gastrointestinal health. Applications in metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal problems, and age-related diseases are speculative and demand further research. Moreover, particular attention should be given to the contraindications of colonic irrigation. Colonic irrigation as an anti-aging modality through its proposed anti-inflammatory effects remains a very controversial topic. The objective of this article is to examine the potential mechanisms of action and contraindications of colonic irrigation while discussing the hypotheses and current knowledge regarding its potential anti-inflammatory and anti-aging benefits.
YOUTUBE AS A SOURCE OF HEALTH INFORMATION: QUALITY AND RELIABILITY ANALYSIS OF SARCOPENIA-RELATED VIDEOS
Authors: Kocyigit Burhan Fatih , Cetin Emine , Öztürk Gülşah Yaşa
Published: December 2024

Introduction. YouTube is a prominent platform for obtaining health-related information, providing expert guidance and user-generated content. This research assessed the features and quality of YouTube videos concerning sarcopenia. Methods. On September 9, 2024, YouTube videos were viewed in incognito mode using the keywords «sarcopenia» and «loss of muscle strength.» A total of 100 videos were evaluated, with 37 satisfying the inclusion criteria following exclusions. The video quality was evaluated utilizing the Global Quality Scale (GQS) and the modified DISCERN instrument. Data regarding views, likes, comments, video duration, and sources were analyzed. Statistical analyses encompassed the Kruskal-Wallis test for group comparisons and Cohen’s kappa coefficient for inter-rater reliability. Results. Of the 37 videos examined, 48.6% (n = 18) were categorized as high-quality, 32.5% (n = 12) as intermediatequality, and 18.9% (n = 7) as low-quality. Videos of high quality were predominantly obtained from physicians (75%, n = 6), non-profit organizations (71.4%, n = 5), and government agencies (66.7%, n = 2). Low-quality videos predominantly originated from independent users (100%, n = 2) and health-related websites (36.4%, n = 4). Engagement indicators, comprising daily views, likes, and comments, showed no significant differences among quality groups, underscoring a disconnect between popularity and quality. Conclusion. YouTube is a helpful platform for distributing information on sarcopenia, provided the content is derived from reputable sources. The abundance of substandard videos highlights the danger of disinformation. Enhancing content control, promoting authoritative videos, and improving health literacy among viewers is crucial for optimizing YouTube’s capacity as a dependable health information resource.
Efficacy of Metarhizium rileyi and Beauveria bassiana as Biocontrol Agents against Third-Instar Spodoptera frugiperda under Laboratory Conditions
Authors: Yashaswini G , Upendhar S , Sree K Vani , Triveni S , Vanisri S
Published: December 2024

Managing the Fall Armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith), a significant pest affecting maize, has become challenging due to widespread restrictions on synthetic pesticide use and the emergence of insecticide-resistant populations. As a sustainable alternative, entomopathogenic fungi have shown promise as biological control agents against S. frugiperda. In this study, commercial formulations of two fungal biocontrol agents, Metarhizium rileyi (Mr-18 strain) and Beauveria bassiana (Bb-52 strain), were assessed against third-instar larvae of S. frugiperda under laboratory conditions. Results showed that both M. rileyi and B. bassiana were similarly effective, with M. rileyi exhibiting a slightly lower LC50 value (1.648 x 10⁵ ppm) compared to B. bassiana (2.203 x 10⁵ ppm), particularly in populations from Telangana. These results highlight the potential of using effective strains of B. bassiana and M. rileyi at a concentration of 1 x 10⁵ conidia/ml as viable biocontrol strategies against S. frugiperda.
Societal Impacts of Zoonotic Diseases: Wildlife and Public Health Interactions
Authors: Chowdhury Bulbul Roy , Sinha Chandrima , Banerjee Kaushik
Published: December 2024

This article reviews the complex relationships between zoonotic diseases, wildlife, and public health while taking cognizance of how human activities such as habitat encroachment, climatic changes, and international trade amplify outbreaks. Zoonotic diseases, or diseases caught from animals, are a significant global challenge in public health. Over 60% of emerging infectious diseases come from wildlife, so zoonotic transmission is a significant threat to society. Diseases can be transferred from a wildlife species to humans directly, indirectly by acting as a carrier of pathogens, contacting humans or consuming animal products. Some of the recently notable examples include COVID-19, avian influenza, and Ebola. Such diseases have dramatically affected health, economic, and social aspects. In addition to the direct health impact, zoonotic disease transmission has profound social implications. Outbreaks cause billions of dollars in economic loss and really do affect industries through trade, tourism, or agriculture. On a societal level, these diseases can disrupt daily life, intensify inequalities, and strain healthcare systems, especially in resource-limited regions. This article highlights the importance of international cooperation, robust public health systems, and sustainable development practices in mitigating the risk of zoonotic disease transmission. By examining available literatures and assessing current policies, we provide recommendations for reducing the societal and public health impacts of wildlife-related zoonotic diseases in a rapidly changing world. This paper critically examines the multifaceted societal impacts of zoonotic diseases, delving into the complex interplay between wildlife, human behavior, and public health systems. It underscores the urgent need for integrated strategies to address the escalating threats posed by human-wildlife interactions and their public health implications.

Osmanlı İmparatorluğu Dönemindeki İlk Demir Yolu Projesi: Fırat Vadisi (Samandağ – Basra) Demir Yolu Projesi
Authors: Çelik Cahit
Published: December 2024

Demir yolu taşımacılığı kısa sürede tüm dünyayı değiştirdi. İlk demir yolu taşımacılığının 1825 yılında gerçekleştirilmesinden sonra İngiltere ve diğer Avrupa ülkeleri emperyalist politikaları çerçevesinde yeni hatlar inşa etmeye çalıştılar. Adriyatik Denizi'nden Basra Körfezi'ne, Ağrı Dağı'ndan Mısır'a kadar geniş bir coğrafyaya yayılan Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, stratejik coğrafi konumu nedeniyle Avrupa ülkelerinin ilgisini çekmiştir. Bu araştırma, Akdeniz'i Basra Körfezi'ne bağlamayı amaçlayan önemli bir kalkınma projesi olan Fırat Vadisi Demir yolu projesini ele almaktadır. Proje ile ilgili öneriler 1830'lu yılların başında ortaya çıkmış ve 19. yüzyılın sonuna kadar savunucuları tarafından projenin uygulanması için birçok çaba sarf edilmiştir. Bu araştırma, projenin tarihsel arka planı, Osmanlı ve Birleşik Krallık politikalarına yansımaları, projenin Osmanlı İmparatorluğu ve Birleşik Krallık'a faydalarını özetleyen tartışmaları ele almıştır. Çalışmada tarihsel-analitik metodoloji uygulanmış ve en önemlisi projeyle ilgili Osmanlı İmparatorluğu arşiv kaynaklarından elde edilen bilgiler olmak üzere çeşitli veri kaynakları kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca, Rawdon Chesney, William Patrick Andrew gibi proje savunucularının yazıları ve 19. yüzyıla ait diğer birincil önemli kaynaklar da kullanılmıştır. Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nin Birleşik Krallık'tan bağımsızlığını kazanmasının ardından Birleşik Krallık, o dönemdeki en büyük sömürge ülkesi olan Hindistan üzerindeki egemenliğini güvence altına almak için elinden geleni yapmaya çalışmıştır. Fırat Vadisi Demir yolu projesi, Hindistan'daki İngiliz çıkarları ile proje çıktıları arasındaki güçlü ilişkiyi ortaya koymuştur. Birleşik Krallık, Hindistan ile en kolay ve en iyi bağlantıyı kurarak hem ticari rotayı güvence altına almaya hem de Hindistan'a mümkün olan en kısa sürede askeri teçhizat ve asker sevkiyatı yapabilmeye çalışmıştır. Osmanlı Hükümeti, Orta Doğu'daki politikalarını uygulamak için daha etkili araçlara sahip olmak gerekçesiyle projeyi destekledi ve 1857'de proje şirketine bir imtiyaz teklif etti. Süveyş Kanalı Projesi'nin %40 hissesinin satın alınmasından sonra İngiliz Hükümeti'nin projeye karşı tutumu değişmiştir. Rusların Erivan-Van veya İran üzerinden Basra Körfezine inme çalışmaları projeyi sürekli gündemde tutmuş ancak Fırat Vadisi Demir yolu Projesi hiçbir zaman hayata geçirilememiş, buna karşın bölgenin stratejik konumu ve sahip olduğu doğal kaynaklar batılı ülkelerin iştahını kabartarak bölgenin sömürgeleştirilmesinin önünü açmış ve bugüne kadar bölgenin istikrarsızlaştırılmasına neden olmuştur.

Published: December 2024

1927 nüfus sayımına göre Bolu Vilayetinin nüfus yapısı, dönemin sosyo-ekonomik ve kültürel yapısını anlamada önemli bir kaynak sunmaktadır. Toplamda 217.597 kişilik nüfusa sahip olan Bolu'da, kadınların erkeklerden daha fazla olduğu görülmektedir. Nüfusun büyük çoğunluğu kırsal alanlarda yaşamaktadır; kent nüfusu sadece %24.22 oranında kalırken, kırsal nüfus %75.78 ile oldukça yüksek bir oranı temsil etmektedir. Dil açısından, Bolu'da halkın büyük kısmı Türkçe konuşmakta olup, %5.54’ü ise Çerkezce konuşmaktadır. Bu durum, Bolu'nun etnik yapısının Çerkez göçmenleri yoğun bir şekilde barındırdığını göstermektedir. Dini yapı açısından ise, nüfusun büyük kısmı İslam'a mensuptur, diğer dini inançlar ise çok küçük bir oranda yer almaktadır. Ekonomik olarak, Bolu'da tarım (zirai faaliyetler) başta gelmektedir; erkeklerin %74.53’ü, kadınların ise %96.17’si tarımda çalışmaktadır. Sanayi ve ticaret sektörü oldukça geri plandadır. Bu veriler, Bolu’nun kırsal bir yapıya sahip, tarıma dayalı ekonomisi olan ve etnik olarak homojen bir nüfusa sahip olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. 1927 sayımı, dönemin Türkiye’sinin genel demografik yapısını yansıtarak, gelecekteki kalkınma planlarına temel teşkil etmiştir.

Modern Approach to the Treatment of Dry Eye: A Complex Multifactorial Disease
Authors: Sneha Ranjan  , Shalini Mohan
Published: December 2024

Dry eye disease (DED) is a growing public health concern affecting quality of life and visual function, with a significant socio-economic impact. It is characterised by the loss of homoeostasis, resulting in tear film instability, hyperosmolarity and inflammation of the ocular surface. Treatment of DED should be aimed at the restoration of the homoeostasis of the ocular surface system. A proper diagnostic approach is fundamental to define the relevance and importance of each of the DED main pathogenic factors, namely tear film instability, epithelial damage and inflammation. All the factors that maintain the vicious circle of DED in the patient’s clinical presentation have to be considered and possibly treated simultaneously. The treatment should be long-lasting and personalised since it has to be adapted to the different clinical conditions observed along the course of the disease. Since DED treatment is frequently unable to provide fast and complete relief from symptoms, empathy with patients and willingness to explain to them the natural history of the disease are mandatory to improve patients’ compliance. Furthermore, patients should be instructed about the possible need to increase the frequency and/or change the type of treatment according to the fluctuation of symptoms, following a preplanned rescue regimen.
