Published: December 2024

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the impact of add-on pelvic floor exercises on a weight management rehabilitation program.
Patients and methods: This proof of principle study was conducted between July 2019 and December 2019. Ninety-three adult female inpatients with obesity and diagnosis of urinary incontinence (UI) were assessed for inclusion, and the suitable patients were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. Both groups underwent a weight management rehabilitation program, while the experimental group also performed pelvic floor exercises. The primary outcome was UI severity, assessed by the 1-h pad test. Secondary outcomes were urinary symptoms, assessed by the International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Short Form (ICIQ-SF), Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I), and Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire (I-QOL).
Results: Sixty female inpatients were randomly assigned to the experimental group [n=30; median age: 64.50 (51.25 to 70.50) years] or the control group [n=30; median age: 67.50 (58.50 to 74.75) years]. The experimental group showed a statistically significant reduction in UI severity [pad test: 2.08 (1.21 to 8.85) g vs. 0.54 (0.24 to 1.13) g, p<0.01; ICIQ-SF: 14.00 (10.25 to 17.00) vs. 8.00 (6.25 to 11.75), p<0.01; I-QOL: 56.37 (42.28 to 73.64) vs. 78.64 (64.32 to 90.68), p<0.01]. Statistically significant differences were found in the between-groups analysis [pad test: 0.54 (0.24 to 1.13) g vs. 1.08 (0.83 to 3.86) g, p<0.01; ICIQ-SF: 8.00 (6.25 to 11.75) vs. 12.00 (10.00 to 16.00), p<0.01; I-QOL: 78.64 (64.32 to 90.68) vs. 68.18 (60.00 to 84.32), p<0.01].
Conclusion: Including pelvic floor exercises might provide additional benefits compared to standard rehabilitation in reducing UI symptoms in obese women.

Published: December 2024

Objectives: This study aims to investigate the effects of trunk stabilization exercises (TSEs) in addition to conventional exercises in patients with stroke on balance, functionality and abdominal muscle thickness as measured by ultrasonography (USG) and to compare the patients’ non-paretic side abdominal muscle thickness with healthy population.
Patients and methods: Between April 2019 and June 2019, a total of 26 hemiparesis/hemiplegic patients with stroke (15 males, 11 females; mean age: 62.3±7.8 years; range, 52 to 71 years) confirmed by neurological examination or computed tomography (CT) / magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 20 age-matched healthy volunteers (12 males, 8 females; mean age: 62.3±7.2 years; range, 53 to 70 years) were included in the study. The patients were randomized into two groups. In the first group (n=13), TSE were performed in addition to conventional neurorehabilitation program, five times/week for a total of four weeks. The second group (n=13) was given conventional neurorehabilitation program, five times/week for a total of four weeks. Also, healthy volunteers as the third group were compared with the patient population. The evaluations were made at the beginning and end of the treatment. The Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Barthel Index (BI), Postural Assessment Scale for Stroke Patients (PASS), and Functional Reach Test (FRT) were used. Abdominal muscle thickness at rest and contraction were evaluated using USG.
Results: Ten patients in Group 1 and 10 patients in Group 2 completed study. A significant improvement was observed in all abdominal muscles in both groups (p<0.05), indicating no significant difference between the groups (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant improvement for BBS and FRT in both groups. The PASS and BI scores showed a significant improvement only in TSE group.
Conclusion: Both the TSE and conventional neurorehabilitation program provided significant improvements in abdominal muscle thickness, balance and trunk control. For postural control and functionality, additional TSE seems to be more effective.

This study aimed to evaluate the impact of gamified apps on phonemic awareness, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. The study aims to explore the relationship between engagement levels and literacy outcomes. A quasi-experimental design involving pretest and post-test assessments of 200 children aged 5 to 7 divided equally into experimental and control groups. The experimental group used gamified learning apps, while the control group engaged in traditional learning activities. Data were analyzed using paired t-tests, independent sample t-tests, ANCOVA, and multiple regression analyses. The findings revealed that the experimental group showed significant improvements in all literacy measures compared to the control group. Higher engagement with the gamified apps was positively associated with more significant literacy gains. The study concludes that gamified mobile learning apps enhance early childhood literacy by increasing engagement and motivation. These results have important implications for educators and policymakers, suggesting that integrating gamified elements into early childhood education can significantly improve literacy outcomes. Educational technology developers are encouraged to design engaging and motivational learning tools to maximize educational benefits.

Published: December 2024

Siyasal aktörler, demokrasinin asli unsuru olan seçimlerde, başarı ve hedef odaklı bir yaklaşım sergilerler. Seçmen davranışlarının analiz edilmesi ve buna yönelik propaganda argümanları geliştirilmesi ve aday tespit edilmesi seçim başarısında anahtar bir rol oynamaktadır. Seçmen davranışının sağlıklı bir şekilde tespit edilebilmesi aynı zamanda demokrasinin normatif niteliğine de katkı sağlayabilecektir. Seçmen davranışları ve gerekçelerinin, pratik ve güncel metotlarla tespit edilerek bunlara uyumlu politik argümanların geliştirilmesi siyasal aktörlerin temel ilgi alanlarında yer almaktadır. Bu güncel ihtiyaç ve talep, konuya akademik ilgiyi de beraberinde getirmekte ve seçmen davranışı başlığı kademeli olarak artan nispette akademik çalışmalara konu olmaktadır. Çalışmaya konu olan siyasal minyatür kavramı, seçim sonuçlarının (milletvekili, cumhurbaşkanlığı, halkoylaması); katılım oranı, siyasi partiler, adaylar ve sonuçların (halkoylaması açısından evet ve hayır) dağılımı bağlamında, üst idari birim (ülke geneli, il, ilçe) ile hiyerarşik alt birimi (ilçe, belde, köy) arasında devamlılık arz edecek şekilde benzeş durumda olma hali olarak tanımlanabilir. Siyasal minyatürlerin tespit edilmesi, büyük ölçekli idari birimlere göre daha kolay alan araştırma yapılması mümkün olan alt idari birimlerdeki seçmen davranışlarına göre makro politik tercih belirlenmesine olanak sağlama işlevine odaklanmaktadır. Türkiye’nin ilçe bazlı siyasal minyatürünün tespit edilmesine yönelik yapılan analizlerde, Kocaeli ili Körfez ilçesi ve Tekirdağ ili Kapaklı ilçeleri öne çıkmakla birlikte görece anlamlı sonuç veren Kocaeli ili Körfez ilçesinin Türkiye genelinin ilçe bazlı siyasal minyatürü olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada ayrıca son on beş yıl içerisinde Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisinde temsil edilen ve seçime katılan siyasi partilerin il bazında siyasal minyatürlerinin tespit edilmesi hedeflenmiştir. Bu bağlamda Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi açısından Burdur ili, Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi açısından Kocaeli ili, Milliyetçi Hareket Partisi açısından Artvin ili, Halkların Demokratik Partisi açısından ise Elazığ ilinin ilgili siyasi partiler açısından siyasal minyatür olarak değerlendirilebileceği tespit edilmiştir.

THOUGHT EXPERIMENT TO PROVE VIOLATION OF THE LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY
Authors: Saumya Deep  
Published: December 2024

The following paper attempts to prove violation of the law of conservation of energy, or in other words is a theoretical proof of over unity efficiency. Here, a thought experiment is demonstrated which mathematically proves over unity efficiency of a flywheel energy storage system under specific conditions . In the experiment , a flywheel system is considered such that , the entire mass of the flywheel consists of two masses which are free to move under the influence of centrifugal forces. The enclosing body of the flywheel should essentially be of negligible mass. When the flywheel is given input energy, it starts rotating and the movable masses of the piston move radially outwards due to centrifugal force, in the process, storing energy in an energy storing mechanism . The rotational kinetic energy of the flywheel is harnessed ( typically like the conventional flywheel energy storage systems ) . When the flywheel stops rotating and its entire rotational kinetic energy is harnessed, the additional energy stored by the masses in the energy storing mechanism is released and harnessed. This additional release of energy essentially violates the law of conservation of energy as the net output energy is greater than the net input energy . This is mathematically proven in the present paper.
Habermas, Honneth, Critical Theory, and Ideology Critique for Transformative Mixed Methods Research
Authors: Morrison Keith 
Published: December 2024

This article sets a theoretical foundation to transformative mixed methods research that is rooted in the critical theory of Habermas and Honneth. This addresses Habermas’s knowledge-constitutive interests and communicative action for redressing societal pathologies, and Honneth’s work on (mis)recognition, (dis)respect, and social justice. In doing so, the article argues for broadening the scope and embrace of mixed methods research, to go beyond being empirical research only or largely, and to include theorisation, critical theoretical discourse and its analysis, and ideology critique, as legitimate methods for (transformative) mixed methods research. The article makes a case for these methods as constituting important research methods in themselves in the portfolio of mixed methods research, moving the boundaries of mixed methods research beyond solely empirical studies, and providing emancipatory lenses and consciousness-raising in recognising that transformation takes many forms.
