Authors: AKIN Fetiye , DİNÇ ATA Gül
Published: September 2022

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of two different repair methods (Er:YAG laser and bur) with or without silane application on the microtensile bond strength of a nanohybrid resin composite aged with two different aging methods (pH cycling and thermocycling).

Material and Method: Resin composite blocks (Clearfil Majesty Esthetic, Kuraray, Japan) were randomly assigned into two groups for aging process: (a) pH cycling (b) thermocycling (5,000 cycles). After aging, the blocks were assigned to one of the following repair procedures: (1) Er:YAG laser (LightWalker STE-E, Fotona Medical Lasers, Ljubljana, Slovenia) (2) Er:YAG laser+silane (3) bur (4) bur+silane and (5) no-pretreatment group and (6) Cohesive control (cohesive strength of the resin). Resin composite (Clearfil Majesty Esthetic) was bonded to the conditioned substrates incrementally and light polymerized. Repaired samples were thermocycled (5.000 cycles). The microtensile bonding test was performed. The data were analyzed using Scheirer-Ray-Hare, Kruskal-Wallis Mann-Whitney U tests, Chi-square and Z tests with Bonferroni correction (p=0.05).

Results: No statistically significant difference was found between the aging methods applied to filling material (p=0.821) and the interaction of applied surface treatments and aging (p=0.289). All repair procedures achieved bond strength values higher than the no-pretreatment group but they did not reach the resin composite’s cohesive bond strength. Failure modes distribution was found statistically different according to repair procedure and also aging methods (p

Authors: YILMAZ Uğur , YAPRAK Gökhan , IŞIK Naciye
Published: September 2022

Aim: To assess oncological outcomes and adverse events of patients receiving single or multi-fraction stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for spine metastases.

Material and Method: Patients with any pathologically proven solid tumor histology who had SBRT to the spine for recurrent or metastatic disease between the years 2010 and 2021 at our department were identified from institutional database. Patient, tumor and treatment characteristics, and follow-up medical records were retrospectively reviewed. Local control (LC) and overall survival (OS) rates were calculated, and adverse events were evaluated.

Results: A total of 47 patients were treated to 50 spine metastases. Median age was 53 years for all patients. Histologies included breast cancer (45%), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC; 21%), prostate cancer (15%) and other types (19%). Median follow-up was 16 months for all patients. Of 47 patients, six (13%) developed local failure and 15 (32%) died without local failure. One and two-year actuarial LC rates were 90.1% and 83.6%, respectively. One and two-year OS rates were 75.1% and 62.7%, respectively. Twenty-two (47%) patients had pain before SBRT. Fifteen (68%) of them had complete or partial pain response at 3 months after SBRT. Vertebral compression fracture, which was grade 1 in severity according to the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE [v.4.03]), was observed in only one (2%) patient and it occurred 46 months after SBRT. No cases of treatment-related radiation myelopathy or any≥grade 3 RT induced acute or late toxicities occurred.

Conclusion: This study supports that SBRT to the spine results in high LC without any significant toxicity. The results of ongoing phase 3 trials will highlight whether this high LC benefit reflects to survival in oligometastatic disease.
The factors affecting sexual satisfaction and sexual myths in married women: A prospective study
Authors: KORKMAZ Nazlı , ÇETİN Sidal
Published: September 2022

Aim: The cultural differences and taboos of the society affect women’s sexual life and sexual relationship qualities and their belief in sexual myths. In addition, women’s demographic characteristics and living conditions are also effective on sexual myths. Our aim in this study is to analyze the frequency of believing in sexual myths in married women and to examine the factors affecting sexual life and sexual relationship qualities.

Material and Method: Married women between the ages of 18-55 in the tertiary gynecology and obstetrics clinic were included in the study, prospectively. Demographic characteristics of women such as age, marital status, marriage and employment status, monthly income, family structure and number of children, sexual life and sexual relationship qualities and sexual myths were compared. The Golombok-Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS) Scale, which is used to evaluate the quality of sexual intercourse and sexual dysfunctions, and The Sexual Myth Scale to determine the status of having sexual myths were used.

Results: Overall 171 married women were included in the study. The median age was 35 years (IQR 29-43) and 60.8% (n=104) were university graduates and 20.5% (n=35) were graduate/doctoral graduates. The rate of believing in sexual myths among married women was 21.4%. As the age of the women increased, the frequency of sexual intercourse decreased (p
Factors independently associated with prognosis in patients operated for pancreatic cancer: Assessing the role of various parameters including red cell distribution width, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio

Published: September 2022

Objective: We aimed to assess whether, among other parameters, preoperative red cell distribution width (RDW), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) values were associated with prognosis in patients operated for pancreatic cancer (PC).

Material and Method: This retrospective cohort was conducted from February 1, 2016 to February 1, 2021 at the general surgery department of a university hospital in Turkey. A total of 75 patients histologically diagnosed with PC who had undergone surgery were included in the study.

Results: The PLR values of patients with poorly differentiated and undifferentiated tumors were found to be higher than those with moderately and highly differentiated tumors. Also, there was a significant relationship between PLR values and the length of hospital stay. PLR values increased as the length of hospital stay increased. There was a statistically significant positive correlation between CA 19-9 levels and NLR and PLR. High total bilirubin level was related with increased risk of death, while adjuvant chemotherapy recipients had 4.049-fold lower risk of death than those without adjuvant chemotherapy.

Conclusion: Our results indicate that preoperative NLR, PLR and RDW cannot be used as prognostic indicators of mortality in patients with operated PC, but high PLR appears to be associated with lower level of tumor differentiation and prolonged hospital stay. We also found that high total bilirubin was a poor prognostic factor, while adjuvant chemotherapy was a good prognostic factor. Further multicenter, prospective studies with larger sample sizes will help to verify these results.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: It is known that COVID-19 in pregnancy causes some negative consequences. Although some studies have been conducted on the possible effects of COVID-19 seen in late pregnancy, its effects in the previous trimesters are not clearly known. This study aimed to examine the umbilical cords of pregnant women who did not have COVID-19 and those who had in the second and third trimesters, after delivery using histopathological and immunohistochemical methods.

Material and Method: The study included 27 pregnant women who had never had COVID-19 (n:9), who had had COVID-19 in the second trimester (n:9) and had had COVID-19 in the third trimester (n:9). After delivery, sections were taken from the umbilical cords of the pregnant women and examined with histopathological and immunohistochemical (VEGF and vimentin antibodies) methods. H-scores were determined for statistical analysis of immunohistochemical staining results. Group means were analyzed using the non-parametric Kruskal Wallis Test.

Results: In cases that had COVID-19 in the third trimester of pregnancy, histopathological findings were more significant than in the other groups. Hemorrhage, thinning of the tunica intima layer, and deterioration in its integrity were observed in the umbilical vascular structures of this group. VEGF and vimentin expression levels were higher in the third-trimester group than in the other groups.

Conclusion: The COVID-19 disease has both acute and long-term effects. The presence of histopathological and immunohistochemical findings in the umbilical cord during the third trimester of pregnancy supports this information. Moreover, the high levels of expression of VEGF and vimentin in the umbilical cords of pregnant women may contribute to the understanding of the pathogenesis of COVID-19 and the post-acute effects of these proteins.
Comparison of BK virus nephropathy risk between double-J-stent with anti-reflux mechanism and standart double-J-stent: single-center experience
Authors: AY Nurettin
Published: September 2022

Aim: Ureteral stend use is a risk factor for BK nephropathy (BKVN). In 2015, we compared the patients with anti-reflux mechanism DJS (ARD-DJS) and those used standard DJS (st-DJS) in terms of BKV and BKVN frequency in 90 kidney transplant patients in two centers. With the increase in the number of our patients over time and lengthening of the follow-up duration, we needed to re-evaluate the data in one center.
Material and Method: We retrospectively evaluated 211 patients who underwent kidney transplantation at Gazi Yaşargil Training and Research Hospital between September 2012 and September 2019. The following parameters were recorded, demographic data, immunosuppression protocols, presence of rejection, graft loss, plasma BKV levels, and presence of BKVN.
Median and IQR follow-up time for ARD-DJS and St-DJS patients was 72 months (62,5-80,3 months) and 27,8 months (17,4-39,6 months) respectively.
Results: Thirteen patients (6,1%) had BKV viremia. BKVN was revealed by kidney biopsy in 3 of 13 patients. However, graft loss due to BKVN was observed in only one patient. ARD-DJS was used in 4 of these cases and standard DJS was used in 9 of these cases. Patients in whom BKV revealed in the first 3 months were compared in the aspect of DJS technique, BKV was significantly less observed in the ARD-DJS group (ARD-DJS: 2 patients; St-DJS:9 patients), (p=0,046).
Conclusion: In our study, BKV was observed less in patients with ARD-DJS that were clinically significant but not statistically significant. Therefore, prospective randomized studies with high patient numbers are needed to determine the effectiveness of ARD-DJS.

Published: September 2022

Aim: Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) are among the most common endocrine diseases. Although it has been shown that hyperparathyroidism may be associated with various cancers, the question of whether there is an association between hyperparathyroidism and PTC remains controversial. To evaluate the incidence of concomitant PTC among patients with PHPT and to identify possible risk factors for the development of PTC in these patients. Material and Method: The data of 543 patients who had been operated on due to PHPT in our institution were reviewed retrospectively. Patients who underwent thyroid surgery in conjunction with parathyroidectomy and patients whose diagnosis of PTC was confirmed histopathologically were compared in terms of their clinical, biochemical, and histopathological features. The prevalence of PTC found in patients with PHPT was compared with national rates to estimate standardized incidence ratios (SIRs). Results: Of the 456 PHPT patients enrolled in the study, 281 (61.6%) had concomitant thyroid nodules on thyroid ultrasonography, and PTC was detected in 53 (11.6%) patients during their thyroid surgeries. Compared to the general population, the incidence of papillary thyroid cancer was increased in both women and men with PHPT (SIR: 272.2, 95% CI: 201.6-360.0, p

Corporate governance is still an important issue today because poor governance can be the cause of business failure. Therefore, good governance is needed to maintain business sustainability. This study aims to examine and analyze the effect of corporate governance, namely the board of commissioners, audit committee and risk monitoring committee on the company's current and long-term performance. In addition, corporate secretary is added as a variable that moderates the influence of the board of commissioners on firm performance. The object of research are financial firms listed on the BEI in 2017-2020. This study found that a qualified corporate secretary can positively moderate the proportion of independent commissioners on the company's current and long-term performance. Audit committee qualifications have a significant positive effect on current and long-term performance. The meeting of the risk monitoring committee has no effect on the firm's performance for the current year but has a significant positive effect on the firm's long-term performance. Considering these results, this study suggests that companies should implement good governance today because it has an impact on firm performance in the future.

Facing Ethical Dilemmas as Professional Accountants in the Future: Do They Aware?
Authors: Diyanti Ferry
Published: September 2022

Accountants often face ethical dilemmas, so appropriate ethical decisions and actions are needed. Accounting students must be able to identify ethical dilemmas. This study aims to get an overview of the ability of accounting students to identify the ethical dilemmas faced. This research uses an exploratory method through an in-depth interview with internship accounting students in government and private institutions. The results showed that students currently participating in the internship program could feel and identify ethical dilemmas in their work. They can identify the procurement of equipment and services used for personal purposes, empty notes, and the fraudulent in preparation of financial statements. However, factors of superior pressure, position in work, work environment and organizational culture force them to remain silent and or carry out the ethical dilemma practices they face. These results show that business ethics learning methods have not been able to encourage interns to make decisions and take ethical actions.

The right regime in Honduras: from stabilization towards destruction (2017-2021)
Authors: Piatakov Andrey
Published: September 2022

The author of the article examines the evolution of political confrontation in Honduras during the second presidential mandate of Juan Orlando Hernandez. He analyzes the causes and process of the growth of protest moods in society. He proves that Honduras experienced several protest waves, which eventually led to the erosion of the electoral base of the right-wing regime. The author also focuses on such a destabilizing factor as the problem of corruption, which traditionally plays a significant role in the internal political life of Honduras. He examines the main state reforms implemented by the government, in particular, the reform of electoral legislation, and touches upon aspects related to the functioning of the armed forces and their socio-political activity. In particular, he shows the role of the Honduran military in the force scenarios for the prevention of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused a significant increase in dissatisfaction with the policy of the authorities. The author proves that the actions of the authorities led to a rise in public sentiment in support of alternative political forces, which eventually came to power following the 2021 elections.
Denigrating films and their prohibition in the State of Veracruz, Mexico between 1922 and 1923
Authors: Martínez Landa Abner
Published: September 2022

One of the great problems that General Álvaro Obregón (1920-1924) had as head of the presidency of Mexico, was obtaining recognition from the United States of America government. The entry into force of the articles of the Political Constitution of 1917, especially those relat-ed to the oil industry, led to a tense environment between Mexico City and Washington, which resulted in some discrepancies. One of them was with the American film industry, where the federal government prohibited the projection of American films in the national territory, which were considered degrading to the Mexican people. This essay is an approach to the conflict between the emerging film industry of the United States of America and the Mexican federal government and the impact it had on the theaters and variety halls in the State of Veracruz between the years of 1922 and 1923. It is divided into three sections: the creation of the stereotype of the Mexican from the American per-spective and its adaptation in the cinema of that country, the censorship measures applied that gave rise to the confrontation, ending with the application of the government of the state of Veracruz and its municipalities of provisions to combat denigrating content.

ЦИФРОВА МЕДИЦИНА: ОСОБЛИВОСТІ ТА ПРОБЛЕМИ СТАНОВЛЕННЯ В УКРАЇНІ
Authors: Корчинський І.О. , Фірман Н.А.
Published: September 2022

Цифрова трансформація суспільства проникла у медичну сферу, що спричинило виникнення понять Е-медицина або Digital Health. Цифрове здоров’я включає програми для мобільного здоров’я, електронні медичні записи, переносні пристрої, телемедицину та персоналізовану медицину. Встановлено, що третина населення України використовує Інтернет мережу для пошуку інформації, що пов’язана зі здоров’ям та ліками. Проникнення цифрових технологій у сферу охорони здоров’я здійснюється за трьома напрямами: впровадження Медичних інформаційних систем, використання інформаційних систем для моніторингу стану пацієнтів та з метою діагностики. Цифрову трансформацію медичної сфери стримують технічні та соціальні причини. До перших відносять низький рівень забезпеченість комп’ютерами та доступом до мережі Інтернет медичних закладів, до других – низький рівень «цифрової» грамотності працівників лікарень та пацієнтів.

Authors: АЛЬОХІН Михайло
Published: September 2022

У аналітичній статті автором здійснено спробу рефлексії реалізованої в Україні освітньої та молодіжної політики, технологій та практик соціально-педагогічної діяльності щодо забезпечення всебічного та гармонійного розвитку та соціальної інтеграції молоді покоління центеніалів. Констатується, що телепроєкти «Перші ластівки» та «Стоп-земля» на широкий загал піднімають проблему відповідності суспільного та поколінного запитів центеніалів із мірою та ступенем їх розуміння, усвідомлення та задоволення відповідними агентами та соціальними інститутами. Зазначається, що соціальним тлом зростання українських центеніалів є складне дитинство кінця 90-х – початку 2000-х, яке характеризується зростанням в умовах функціонування «пострадянського» суспільства, відтворення застарілих соціальних структур та інститутів, «шоком без терапії». Сьогодення центеніалів розвивається в умовах подвійної інституційної системи, масової аномічної деморалізації і масової соціальної ексклюзії. Тому українським центеніалам характерні гедоністичні устремління та споживацькі позиції, безвідповідальність та некомпетентність у побуті, егоїзм, високий рівень прагматизму та часто безпідставні амбіції, брак соціальної нормативності, соціальне відчуження й індивідуалізм, ризикована поведінки й недостатньо сформовані соціальнозначимі якості особистості. Автор наводить індикаторами соціальної втрати покоління центеніалів низьке усвідомлення ними цінності життя, насильницькі моделі взаємодії та нетерпимість до інакшості. Складна соціальна ситуація та доповнені до неї неконструктивні моделі виховання дітей призводить до їх світоглядної обмеженості, конформізму і тотального інфантилізму, особливо в соціально депресивних регіонах України. Подолання даного становища на думку автора лежить у площині активізації факторів та інструментів соціального розвитку молоді – подолання примітивності, а подекуди – нікчемності або фіктивності їх соціального досвіду, набуття ним проактивного, позитивного, формуючого нові конструкти виміру через їх залучення у найширшому контексті цієї дефініції.
