Published: June 2023

Background/Aims: This study aimed to determine the effect of health literacy level on early diagnosis Aim: This study aimed to determine the effect of health literacy level on early diagnosis behaviors of breast and cervical cancer in women between the ages of 18 and 65.
Material and Method: The descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with female patients who admitted to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Outpatient Clinics of a Training and Research Hospital in the Central Black Sea region. Data were collected using the Introductory Information Questionnaire prepared by the researcher and the European Health Literacy Scale (HLS-EU) between June 2019 and January 2020. The sample of the study included 395 women who were not pregnant, had not undergone hysterectomy, were between the ages of 18 and 65, were married or sexually active, had no psychiatric, hearing or visual impairments, and were not diagnosed with breast and cervical cancer before.
Results: 70.1% of women are between the ages of 25-44. 42.3% of women are graduates of higher education, 46.8% of them are not working. 91.9% of all women are married and 83.8% have a nuclear family. The mean general health literacy score of women on the European Health Literacy Scale (HLS-EU) is 32.43± 7.36. 40.3% of women have a problematic-limited level of health literacy. In the study, a statistically significant relationship was determined between the general score of European Health Literacy Scale (HLS-EU) and the state of knowing CBE (p=0.027) gender of the doctor in CBE (p=0.019), having gynecological examination before (p=0.008), knowing Pap-smear test (p=0.027), having Pap-smear test before (p=0.008),
Conclusion: The level of health literacy of women is problematic- limited. It has been determined that breast and cervical cancer information and early screening practices are insufficient, and insufficient health literacy level prevents participation in cancer screenings.

Published: June 2023

Abstract:
Physicians are making great efforts to decrease the long-term complications of the cesarean section such as placental adherent syndromes, uterine scar pregnancies, uterine rupture, abnormal menstrual bleeding, or isthmocele. There is a controversy about the closure technique of the cesarean incision. The purpose of that study was to compare the impact of single layer versus double-layer closure of the hysterotomy incision on the residual myometrial thickness, isthmocele, menstrual disorders, dysmenorrhea, and dyspareunia.
Material and Method
A prospective randomized cohort study has been performed in a tertiary center named Bursa Yuksek İhtisas Training Research Hospital between July – October 2021. Patients were randomly assigned to each procedure (1:1) to the Single Layer Locked Continuous group and Double-layer Continuous un-locked group as uterine closure technique. Patients were examined via transvaginal ultrasound to evaluate the isthmocele occurrence, residual myometrium thickness, and inquired about menstrual properties, dysmenorrhea, and dyspareunia. Patients were also divided into groups via underwent first cesarean and more than one cesarean.
Results:
The numbers of the women whose hysterotomy incision was closed by single-layer locked continuous( SLLC) technique and double-layer un-locked continuous(DLUC) technique 68 and 71 respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in terms of demographic variables, obstetric history, post-operative complications, neonatal outcomes. The comparison of these groups revealed that there was no significant difference in terms of post-menstrual bleeding, heavy menstrual bleeding, post-coital bleeding, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia. The incisional residual myometrial thickness was higher in the DLUC group with a p-value of 0,007. Six patients in SLLC and 5 patients in the DLUC group have detected isthmocele (p: 0,941).
Patients have also been categorized as women who undergone their first cesarean section (SLLC n: 33 versus DLUC, n:33) and more than one cesarean section (SLLC n: 35 versus DLUC, n:38). Comparing the patients in these subgroups also did not differ significantly in terms of isthmocele occurrence, menstrual disorders, or residual myometrial thickness.
Conclusion:
No significant difference had occurred in terms of isthmocele incidence, or menstrual disorders comparing the single layer versus double-layer closure. However, women whose hysterotomy insicions were closed with double-layer un-locked continuous technique have a thicker resudial myometrium than single layer closure group especially women who underwent repeated cesarean.

Published: June 2023

Purpose: The correct and early diagnosis of brucellosis is very crucial to decelerate its spread and providing fast treatment to patients. This study aims to develop a predictive model for diagnosing bacteremia in brucellosis patients based on some hematological and biochemical markers without the need for blood culture and bone marrow and to investigate the importance of these markers in predicting bacteremia.
Materials/Methods: 162 patients with diagnosing brucellosis, 54.9% of whom are non-bacteremic, 45.1% bacteremia were retrospectively collected. The 20 demographic, hematological and biochemical laboratory parameters and 30 classifiers are used to predict bacteremia in brucellosis. Classifiers were developed by using Python programming language. Accuracy (ACC), Area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AROC), and F measure were employed to find the best fit classification method. Feature importance method was used to determine most diagnostic markers to predict the bacteremia. Results: Extratree classifier with criterion “entropy” (ETC1) showed the best predictive performance with Acc values ranging between 0.5 and 1.00, F values between 0.53 and 1, and AROC values between 0.62 and 1. The neutrophil%, lymphocyte%, eosinophil%, alanine aminotransferase, and C-reactive protein were determined as the most distinguishing features with the scores 0.723, 1.000, 0.920, 0.869, and 0.769, respectively.
Conclusions: This study showed that the ETC1 classifier may be helpful in determining bacteremia in brucellosis patients and that elevated lymphocytes, alanine aminotransferase, and C-reactive protein and low neutrophils and eosinophils may indicate bacteremic brucellosis.

COMPARISON OF DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUES USED IN THE DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS OF ENDOMETRIAL PATHOLOGIES PRESENTING WITH AN ABNORMAL UTERINE BLEEDING
Authors: OMURCA Fatih 
Published: June 2023

Introduction: Transvaginal ultrasonography ( TVUSG ) examination, dilatation and curettage ( D&C ) approach and hysteroscopic assesment are frequently used in examination of the abnormal uterine bleeding ( AUB ). The specisific test for detection of the AUB is histopathological evaluation. The study aimed to check the exactness of TVUSG, D&C and hysteroscopy for differential diagnosis of the AUB.
Patients and Methodology: Subjects with AUB, who were supposed to have an endometrial pathology on TVUSG, D&C or hysteroscopy, were included in this retrospective study. Our retrospective study was conducted in 160 patients who were admitted to our clinic with complaint of abnormal uterine bleeding. The final pathological diagnosis was accepted as the reference test and sensitivity and specifity of the D&C, hysteroscopy and TVUSG was checked with the pathological diagnosis.
Results: Hysteroscopy combined with biopsy provieded highest correlation with the histopathological evaluation. However, the statistical values obtained with TVUSG was comparable to that of the hysteroscopy alone and D&C but lower than that of the hysteroscopy combined with biopsy.
Conclusion: Transvaginal ultrasound is a readily available and reproducible imaging technique for the evalution of the endometrial pathologies leading to the AUB. However, the specificity of the TVUSG is quite low. Among the methods used to correctly identify the endometrial pathologies in our study population, the highest sensitivity and specificity was obtained with hysterosopy combined with the biopsy. Nevertheless, TVUSG provides similar statistical values compared to hysteroscopy alone and D&C.

Published: June 2023

The processes of transformation and transport of suspended matter in the mouth area of the Danube is discussing. Data in situ as a result of long-term monitoring was using in a period of different hydrometeorological conditions in a different seasons. Numerical Lagrange model was used as an approximation of natural process of suspended distribution. The process of domination of substances of riverine genesis was marked removing from the drudging area and dumping. Thus, there is leveling of anthropogenic genesis substances. Data in situ shows the total field of suspended matter but at the same time it is not possible to differ large scale influence of substances from anthropogenic and natural sources to the aquatic system In turn, numerical modeling enables to have quantity and quality evaluation of transformation and substance advection for separately. Appropriateness of comparing data of survey and numerical simulation had been done. This makes it possible to estimate total influence to marine ecosystem from riverine sediments input and input of hydro- technical dragging and damping.

Published: June 2023

The paper presents the method of engineering geodynamic typification of a territory prone to dangerous landslides. It includes the analysis of the structural and material composition of rocks and instrumental observations of deformation processes on landslide slopes. Based on geological drilling and geodetic observations of surface displacements of rock slopes made between 1981 and 2010, we performed engineering geodynamic typification of a landslide-prone spot of the right bank of the Maly Ajalyk liman (the territory of Odessa Port Plant) and identified potentially high-risk areas associated with modern engineering-geological and geodynamic processes.To identify possible higher-risk areas associated with modern engineering-geological and geodynamic processes, following problems were solved: maps are plotted for the surface relief topography of the main deformable horizon (Meotian deposits), as well as maps of vertical and horizontal displacements of rock slope; also, the data analysis of long-term instrumental observations was made; there were identified spatial patterns of formation and development of deformation processes.The main reason for activation of engineering geodynamic risk zones is the hierarchical block structure of the territory, which is characterized by continuous and differentiated movements of geoblocks of various scales.For areas of high geodynamic risk, the diagonal direction is most characteristic, which is typical of the geological structure of the territory. Closer to the bank of the liman, the diagonal network activity is “suppressed” by the meridian-aligned liman, so higher-risk areas are mostly oriented along the coast.The patterns identified on the territory of Odessa Port Plant are characteristic of the whole Odessa region. A significant role in the formation and dynamics of landslide processes is played by micro-block structure of the geological environment. Its main elements are the inter-block zones, the zones of highest engineering geodynamic risk. Extreme velocity gradients and strains associated with differentiated movements of blocks are typical for such zones. It is those areas that create conditions worsening the stability of slopes. Cartographic modeling results should be considered while developing and designing protective structures (landslide, drainage, etc.).

Purpose The article is devoted to security (vulnerability) of groundwater used for drinking water supply in Kiev. Object of research are groundwater horizons and complexes in territory of Kiev. Subject of researches is the groundwater horizons security. The purpose of researches is Kiev’s territory estimation from the point of view of hydrochemical groundwater changes security. Methodology The published scientific information about hydrogeology conditions of Kiev’s drinking groundwater horizon and complex changes for the period of their operation was analyzed. The groundwater complex (J2-3iv + K1-2zg-br) and groundwater horizon (J2or) were considered. They are used for drinking water supply from the end of XIX century. Were assembled and processed the groundwater chemical analyses actual data which used for drinking water supply. Data are accumulated and processed in geographic information system medium. Finding The problem of security for drinking groundwater in natural conditions and in conditions of anthropogenic influence is investigated. From the end XIX – beginning XX of century the groundwater complex (J2-3iv + K1-2zg-br) chemical structure has changed. The class of quality of water on ДСТУ 4808:2007 (State standard) as a whole has changed from first (excellent) up to third (satisfactory). The changes are unequal on the area and differ in various geomorphologic areas. The areas, on which there is an infringement of hydrogeology conditions under anthropogenic factor influence, are revealed with help of GIS-systems. The anthropogenic changes are fixed in the groundwater horizon (J2or) too. The researches of spatial mineralization change in the groundwater horizon (J2or) show that it essentially differs for different regions of city (fig. 1) and reaches the large meanings on the left coast of Dnieper. It also testifies to necessity of detailed researches of security of groundwater in view of geological and hydrogeological structure features.Results The areas of the anthropogenic violation hydrogeology conditions are revealed. The urgency of detailed studies of groundwater protection taking into account the geological and hydrogeology characteristics of the structure territory are proved. The received results may be used at designing system of hydrogeological monitoring

Published: June 2023

The beginnings of Odessa I. I. Mechnikov National University (ONU), Ukraine, date back to 1865. Its Department of Physical and Marine Geology continues the school’s strong tradition in marine geological research. This paper describes the main developmental stages of marine geology at Odessa University, emphasizing the role of the scientists (among them V. Lapshin, R. Prendel, N. Golovkinskiy, N. Andrusov, and G. G. Tkachenko) who played significant roles in geological research in the Black Sea region.Following the Great October Revolution in the early 1920s, the Novorossian University was closed, and its leading scientists left to enrich foreign universities. It took ten years to revive the university anew with the name I. I. Mechnikov Odessa State University.In the early 1970s, marine geology began to flourish thanks to G. G. Tkachenko. He established the Interdisciplinary Laboratory of Marine Geology and Geochemistry as well as the university’s first scientific fleet, represented by the research vessels “Mechnikov” and “Antares.” University marine geologists worked around the globe, exploring mineral resources, including hydrocarbons and iron-manganese nodules. Today, the Department of Physical and Marine Geology contributes substantially to the development of mineral resources in Ukraine. It has established international contacts with many scientists through numerous research programmes supervised by the Department Head, Prof. Valentina Yanko. The projects have geological, ecological and geoarchaeological impact, especially in preserving the environment as well as reconstructing sea level and climate changes together with the associated human adaptive strategies.
