Abstract
OBJECTIVES To identify the etiology of vertigo/dizziness and determine the effectiveness of the video-head impulse test (vHIT) and the suppression head impulse paradigm (SHIMP) tests in distinguishing between peripheral and non-peripheral etiologies in children who presented to the otolaryngology department with complaints of vertigo/dizziness. METHODS The vHIT and SHIMP tests were applied to the children. The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) gain and saccade parameters were compared. RESULTS In 27 children presenting with vertigo/dizziness, the most common etiological factor was inner ear malformation (IEM) (n = 6/27, 22.2%), followed by cochlear implant surgery (11.1%) and migraine (11.1%). Vestibular hypofunction was indicated by the vHIT results at a rate of 60% (9/15 children) and SHIMP results at 73.3% (11/15 children) among the children with a peripheral etiology, while these rates were 8.3% (1/12 children) and 25% (3/12 children), respectively, in the non-peripheral etiology group. SHIMP-VOR and vHIT-VOR gain values had a moderate positive correlation (p = 0.01, r = 0.349). While there were overt/covert saccades in the vHIT, anti-compensatory saccade (ACSs) were not observed in the SHIMP test (p = 0.041). The rates of abnormal vHIT-VOR gain (p = 0.001), over/covert saccades (p = 0.019), abnormal vHIT response (p = 0.014), ACSs (p = 0.001), and abnormal SHIMP response (p = 0.035) were significantly higher in the peripheral etiology group. CONCLUSIONS IEM was the most common etiological cause, and the rate of vestibular hypofunction was higher in these children with peripheral vertigo. vHIT and SHIMP are effective and useful vestibular tests for distinguishing peripheral etiology from non-peripheral etiology in the pediatric population with vertigo/dizziness. These tests can be used together or alone, but the first choice should be the SHIMP test, considering its short application time (approximately 4-5 min) and simplicity.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) The Society for Women in Radiation Oncology (SWRO) was founded in 2017 with a mission to promote representation and gender equity in the field of radiation oncology (RO). SWRO members include faculty and trainee radiation oncologists and medical physicists. We aim to assess the current experiences of SWRO members using a comprehensive survey of gender-related workforce issues we developed. Data was used to establish a 5-year benchmark. MATERIALS/METHODS From January to February 2023, an anonymous survey was distributed to current SWRO members. Questions included demographics, family planning/fertility issues, perceptions of the field, and membership needs. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize frequencies of the multiple-choice items on the survey. RESULTS On interim analysis, 115 of 680 (17%) completed the survey from 11 countries, 81% of which reside in the US. 55% were faculty physicians, 26% resident physicians, 10% faculty physicists, and 3% physics residents. The majority were female (97%) and either married or in a domestic partnership (74%). 47% reported having at least one child, and 26% reported that they or their partner became pregnant during residency. Length of leave was impacted by residents' desire to complete residency training on schedule. 53% felt RO was perceived as family-friendly, but much fewer (17%) agreed that it is. After clinical responsibilities (70%), insufficient mentorship was cited as the second most common limitation to professional productivity (35%). 48% reported being somewhat or extremely satisfied with current mentorship availability at their institution, while 56% reported being similarly satisfied with the mentorship available within the field. 69% reported seeking or having sought female mentorship outside of their institution. Unwanted sexual comments, attention, or advances by superiors or colleagues was reported by 38% of respondents. Additionally, 72% either agreed or strongly agreed that SWRO membership and participation were a valuable use of their time, with the top three reasons for joining being networking opportunities, mentorship opportunities, and increasing the visibility of women and gender minorities in RO. Suggested improvements included increasing female physics representation and advocacy, and physics-related events, as well as providing opportunities for members to socialize and interact. CONCLUSION This study provides an update on the experiences of women and gender minorities in the field of RO since the creation of SWRO in 2017. The study highlights ongoing targets for improvement such as gender-based obstacles, opportunity for additional education and advocacy, support of family-friendly culture shifts, mentorship, and increased physics inclusion and advocacy. These findings support the need for organizations such as SWRO to continue to promote representation and gender equity in RO.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lilium candidum L. is a perennial ornamental plant that has various medicinal properties and is used in the cosmetic industry. The species is facing threats from urbanization and climate change and requires urgent protection. The most secure and efficient technology for the long-term storage of plant genetic resources is cryopreservation, which involves preserving genetic material at extremely low temperatures. OBJECTIVE Today, plant biodiversity is endangered because of the narrowing of its natural distribution areas and/or destruction for different purposes. This study concentrated on creating a cryopreservation process using shoot tips and calluses as explant sources for the long-term conservation of L. candidum species. MATERIALS AND METHODS Populations of L. candidum naturally distributed from three different regions of Turkey (Kepsut, Balikesir; the area surrounding Bafa Lake, Aydin; and Fethiye-Mugla) were grown in vitro to supply shoot tip and callus explants. Prior to freezing by droplet-vitrification and vitrification techniques, shoot tips and calluses were treated with MS nutritional medium supplemented with 0.4 M sucrose 7 g per L agar and plant vitrification solution 2 (PVS2). RESULTS Cryopreserved shoot tips showed the highest levels of regeneration (71.8%) after a PVS2 treatment of 90 min, while calluses showed the highest levels of regrowth (63.9%) after a PVS2 exposure of 60 min. CONCLUSION High levels of regrowth are produced when the various cryopreservation procedures described here are used to preserve both shoot tip and callus explants. This potentially makes the method promising for the long-term preservation of endangered L. candidum varieties. Doi.org/10.54680/fr23510110512.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Massive hemorrhage is a serious event that threatens the lives of patients. Fibrinogen concentrate (FC) can control bleeding without causing viral complications and without volume loading, which can happen in transfusion-associated circulatory overload and transfusion-associated acute lung injury. FC application is easy and does not require dissolution or extra devices. It is a cost-effective agent when considering the blood and products used in large quantities. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 67 postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and trauma patients' medical records, who had ASA I-III classification (The American Society of Anesthesiologists classification of physical status), were obtained. Patients were divided into two groups (fibrinogen level ≤ 100 mg/dl and ≥ 101 mg/dl). The following information was obtained from patient files: demographic parameters, history of operations, and laboratory findings (i.e., complete blood counts, coagulation tests, and fibrinogen levels). Also, the duration of intensive care unit stays and mechanical ventilation application days, the administration of fresh frozen plasma (FFP), erythrocytes, platelets, and FC numbers, and tranexamic acid infusion were recorded. RESULTS There was no mortality in PPH patients in either group (fibrinogen level ≤ 100 mg/dl and ≥ 101 mg/dl). The mortality rate in trauma patients was significantly higher in the group with fibrinogen levels ≤ 100. A total of 170 g of FC were given to PPH patients and 92 g to trauma patients. There were statistically significant differences between the preoperative PT (prothrombin time), postoperative APTT (activated partial thromboplastin time), postoperative PT, and postoperative INR (international normalized ratio) levels of the patients in the group with fibrinogen levels ≤ 100. Mortality rates were also significantly higher, and hospital stays significantly longer in trauma patients in the group with fibrinogen levels ≤ 100. CONCLUSIONS Therapy may be considered during massive bleeding and transfusion, as it can help to increase fibrinogen levels quickly and efficiently. Compared with FFP, fibrinogen concentrate may have some advantages in reducing the risk of fluid overload. FFP contains a range of clotting factors, including fibrinogen. It also contains other proteins and fluids that can lead to fluid overload, especially when given in large volumes during massive transfusions.

Abstract
Background Maternal bonding has an effect on the baby throughout its life. The effective and complete occurrence of the mother-baby bond depends on many factors which can be individual or environmental. Health literacy plays an important role in the health behaviors of individuals, the prevention of diseases, and the improvement of health. Health literacy is a key determinant of medical-related issues. Objectives This study was conducted to examine the relationship between health literacy and mother-infant attachment in infancy. It was aimed to predict the biopsychosocial impact of the mother's health literacy level on the baby's life indirectly. Materials and Methods The sample of this descriptive and cross-sectional study included 202 mothers. Data were collected using the Personal Information Form, Health Literacy Scale-Short Form (HLS-SF), and Maternal Attachment Inventory (MAI). Results There were no statistical correlations between HLS-SF scores and MAI scores. In addition, the mothers with a statistically significant higher MAI score were those whose partners had a higher education level, had a planned pregnancy, worked in the prenatal period, never breastfed, and had earlier skin-to-skin contact with their baby. (P < 0.05). Conclusion Factors that may affect maternal bonding, which affects a baby's entire life, should be addressed by the authorities and necessary improvements would be useful. We believe that this previously unexplored study will pave the way for multicenter similar studies.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of electroacupuncture in acute and chronic phases of radial and ulnar nerve injuries in histopathological, immunohistochemical and biochemical aspects. In the study, the rabbits were divided into four groups namely acute nerve injury (ANI) group, chronic nerve injury (CNI) group, positive control (PC) group and negative control (NC) group. In the ANI, CNI and PC groups, damage was created on the nervus radialis and nervus ulnaris by applying pressure for 60 seconds using a hemostatic forceps under anesthesia. No damage was created in the NC group. Fifteen sessions of electroacupuncture were applied to the rabbits in the ANI, CNI, and NC groups every other day using LI-4 (Large Intestine Meridian-4, He Gu), LI-10 (Large Intestine Meridian-10, Shou San Li), LR-3 (Liver Meridian-3, Tai Chong), and ST-36 (Stomach Meridian-36, Zusanli) electroacupuncture points. Electroacupuncture was not applied to the rabbits in the PC group. Decapitation was performed under general anesthesia at the end of electroacupuncture applications. After the euthanasia procedure, the samples obtained were evaluated for histopathological, immunohistochemical and biochemical parameters. In conclusion, degenerative foci in the treatment groups were found to be fewer than in the PC group whereas NGF and S-100 immunoreactivity were higher in the treatment groups than in the PC group. Whereas no statistically significant difference was observed between the treatment groups and the NC group in terms of oxidative stress factors, there was a statistically significant difference between the treatment groups and the PC group. In light of all these data, we have concluded that electroacupuncture is an effective treatment method for peripheral nerve injuries.

Abstract
Bu çalışmanın amacı, doksorubisinin (DOX) neden olduğu kardiyotoksisite üzerine kımızın etkisini araştırmaktı. Yirmi sekiz Wistar-Albino erkek sıçan 4 gruba ayrıldı: Birinci gruba (kontrol) herhangi bir müdahale yapılmadı. İkinci gruba 7 gün gavaj yoluyla 2 ml/kg/gün, üçüncü gruba intraperitoneal DOX, dördüncü gruba kımız+DOX 20 mg/kg tek doz verildi. DOX uygulamasından 7 gün önce Kumiss uygulamasına başlandı ve 7 gün devam edildi. 7 On thkımız uygulamasının ilk gününde intraperitoneal olarak DOX uygulandı. Malondialdehit (MDA), indirgenmiş glutatyon (GSH) seviyeleri ve katalaz (CAT), glutatyon peroksidaz (GSH-Px), süperoksit dismutaz (SOD), glukoz-6-fosfat dehidrojenaz (G6PD) ve glutatyon-S- gibi antioksidan enzimler Kalp ve kan dokularında kardiyotoksisite patogenezindeki etkinliklerini belirlemek için transferaz (GST) aktiviteleri belirlendi. DOX grubu kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında MDA (p<0,001, p<0,001) ve GSH (p<0,001, p=0,002) düzeylerinde artış ve CAT'de azalma (p=0,001, p<0,001) , GSH-Px (p<0.001, p<0.001), G6PD (p<0.001, p=0.001) ve GST (p=0.003) aktiviteleri bulundu ve SOD aktivitesinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmadı. Histopatolojik olarak dejenerasyon, nekroz, DOX uygulanan grupta kanama ve ödem gözlendi. DOX ile tedavi edilen grup ile karşılaştırıldığında, DOX ile kımız verilen grupta MDA, GSH düzeyleri ve antioksidan enzim aktivitelerinin kontrol grubu değerlerine ulaştığı görüldü. Sonuç olarak, lipid peroksidasyon ürünlerindeki artış ve antioksidan enzimlerdeki azalmanın, güçlü bir kemoterapötik ilaç olan DOX ile indüklenen kardiyotoksisitenin patogenezinde rol oynayabileceği belirlendi ve kırmızının DOX kaynaklı oksidatif hasara karşı koruduğu gösterildi.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed at evaluating the impact of HA330 hemoperfusion adsorbent application on inflammatory markers and end-organ damage markers in patients with sepsis/septic shock. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients who were diagnosed with sepsis/septic shock and treated with HA330 hemoperfusion adsorbent in addition to the standard treatment were included in this retrospective study conducted at Inonu University Turgut Ozal Medical Center between January 1, 2019 and January 1, 2021. RESULTS A total of 150 patients were included in the study. The mean±SD age of the patients was 51.9±17.7 years. 102 patients (68%) were in septic shock. Mean±SD APACHE II scores were 15.3±4.8. The need for mechanical ventilation was noted in 64 patients (42.7%). WBC, neutrophil count, hemoglobin, platelet count, BUN, creatinine, AST, ALT, CRP and procalcitonin levels were measured before and after the procedure. Overall, 104 patients (69.3%) died median (min-max) 2.5 (1-114) days after the cytokine adsorption, while 46 patients (30.7%) recovered from sepsis and were discharged. The increase in BUN levels and decrease in platelet count after the procedure were statistically significant (p≤0.001, 0.041, respectively) in the overall study population. The laboratory findings in 46 survivors indicated significantly decreased AST and ALT levels after cytokine adsorption compared to baseline pre-treatment levels. WBC, neutrophil count, CRP, procalcitonin, BUN and creatinine values were also decreased after cytokine adsorption in survivors, whereas the change was not statistically significant. There was also a non-significant tendency for an increase in platelet count and hemoglobin levels after cytokine adsorption compared to pre-treatment values in these patients. CONCLUSIONS Although no effect of HA330 hemoperfusion application on inflammatory markers and end-organ damage markers was demonstrated in our study, we used the HA330 hemoperfusion adsorbent method as a last resort in terminal patients with a mortality rate of approximately 90% and for whom antibiotic treatment did not benefit. Therefore, multicenter, prospective studies are needed to clarify the effect of early HA330 hemoperfusion use in the treatment of sepsis.

Abstract
Background
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is an effective therapy for patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS). Complete atrioventricular block (AVB) that requires permanent pacemaker implantation is a common complication of TAVI. Direct mechanical effect of the prosthetic valve, QRS duration and underlying myocardial fibrosis are proposed mechanisms of AVB after TAVI. Left ventricular mechanical dispersion (LVMD) by Speckle Tracking Echocardiography (STE) is an index of contraction heterogeneity and a marker of myocardial fibrosis.
Purpose
We aimed to evaluate the association between LVMD, QRS duration and AVB to assess markers used to predict AVB after TAVI.
Methods
A total of 163 consecutive TAVI patients were enrolled in the study. Echocardiograms andelectrocardiograms were recorded the day before TAVI procedure to assess global longitudinal strain (GLS), LVMD and QRS duration. AVB and pacemaker (PM) implantation information was obtained by telephone interviews three months after TAVI.
Results
Ten patients were excluded due to poor image quality. Of the 153 patients analyzed, 45% were female. Mean age was 80±7 years. In our patient cohort 15.7% of the patients received PM within three months after TAVI. GLS and QRS duration was not different between AVB group and No-AVB group (−15.8±4.5% vs −16.9±4.4%, p=0.26 and 107±31ms vs 102±18ms, p=0.24 respectively). LVMD was prolonged in patients with subsequent AVB compared to patients with No-AVB (60±19ms vs 48±13ms, p<0.001) (Figure 1). LVMD predicted AVB after TAVI with area under the curve 0.71. LVMD predicted AVB independently of QRS duration (odds ratio 1.68; 95% confidence interval 1.23–2.3; p=0.001 by 10ms increments) (Table 1).
Conclusion
LVMD predicted AVB after TAVI independent of QRS duration. LVMD may be of added value as a myocardial functional echocardiographic predictor of this important and frequent complication of TAVI.

Background and Purpose
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) is an effective therapy for patients with severe aortic stenosis. Complete atrioventricular block (AVB) that requires permanent pacemaker treatment is a common complication of TAVI and it is reported in up to one fifth of patients. Prediction of this complication could be important. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) and left ventricular mechanical dispersion (LVMD) by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) are novel techniques that detect subtle changes in myocardial function and are related to myocardial fibrosis. Thus, we aimed to investigate the association between LVMD and AVB development after TAVI.
Methods
We retrospectively screened 168 consecutive patients after TAVI. Patients with abnormal ECG and changed conduction pre- and post-TAVI were excluded. Data from the remaining 61 patients were compared to the group of 16 patients in need for a permanent pacemaker. Baseline echocardiograms recorded before TAVI were used to assess GLS and LVMD by STE (Figure).
Results
Of the 77 patients analysed, 60% were female (82 ± 7 years old). The mean GLS values were -16.8 ± 4.2% and -16.9 ± 3.7% in AVB and no AVB groups, respectively (p = 0.9). The mean LVMD was 60 ± 19 ms in AVB group and 50 ± 16 ms in no-AVB group (p = 0.04). (Table)
Conclusion
LVMD was increased in patients who developed TAVI-induced complete AVB, while GLS could not differentiate between post-procedural normal and abnormal electrical conduction. This finding may be important to identify myocardial properties associated with complete AVB after TAVI. Abstract Table Abstract Figure

Abstract
In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of hip dysplasia on some biochemical parameters, oxidative stress factors and hematocrit values in dogs. Hematocrit values (HTC), serum calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P) levels, serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP), creatine kinase (CK) activities and oxidative stress factors were evaluated in a total of 27 dogs with healthy hip joints (n: 11) and hip dysplasia (n: 16). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of HCT, Ca and P values (p˃0.05). ALP and CK activities were found to be statistically significantly increased in the group with hip dysplasia compared to the control group with a healthy hip joint (p˂0.05). While malondialdehyde (MDA) level, one of the oxidative stress factors, was increased in the group with hip dysplasia, decreased glutathione (GSH) levels, catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activities were significantly decreased. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of superoxide dismutase (SOD) level. As a result, it was determined that oxidative stress factors differ in dogs with hip dysplasia compared to dogs with the healthy hip joint.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We analyzed the long-term results of malleable and inflatable penile prosthesis: the rates of complications, revision surgery and patient satisfaction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between January 1996 and December 2020, a total of 138 patients underwent implantation of a malleable or inflatable types penile prosthesis. The data of the patients were derived from the patient files and digital recording system. The patients were contacted face-to-face interaction if possible. If it is not possible, phone connection was made. RESULTS The median age of patients was 56 (21-83) years. Fourteen (10.2%) 1-piece, 46 (33.3%) 2-piece and 78 (56.5%) 3-piece penile prosthesis were implanted. The mostly used perioperative antibiotic was teicoplanin+amikacin in 107 patients. Total complication rate was 30% (n=42). Prosthesis infection constituted 9% (n=13) of these complications. The total satisfaction rate was 89.1%. There was no correlation between the complications and antibiotic regimen or prosthesis type (P=0.488, P=0.454, respectively). The rate of infection showed a slight increase in 3-piece penile prosthesis without any statistically significance (P=0.633). The patients with complications expressed more dissatisfaction compared to those without complications (P=0.001). CONCLUSIONS In our series, penile prosthesis implantation seems to be a recommended treatment method with high patient satisfaction in the treatment of refractory erectile dysfunction.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of surface sealants on the stain resistance of restorative materials exposed to iron syrups. METHODS Sixty specimens were prepared from each of three restorative materials-compomer (Dyract XP), a microhybrid composite (Filtek Z250), and a nanohybrid composite (G-aenial Anterior). Specimens were divided into three solution groups (n = 20) and immersed in two iron syrups (Ferrum and Ferro Sanol B) and distilled water. Two subgroups, sealed (BisCover ( +)) and unsealed (BisCover (-)), were established for each group (n = 10). Color changes between baseline and measurements at 4, 8, 24, 48, and 72 h were calculated with CIEDE2000 (ΔE00) metrics. Data were analyzed with 4-factor mixed-design ANOVA. RESULTS The first null hypothesis of this study that the use of surface sealant would not mitigate the restorative materials' susceptibility to staining was rejected: significant differences were found between BisCover ( +) and BisCover (-) groups in ΔE00 values for all restorative materials tested in Ferro Sanol B (p < 0.001) and Ferrum (p = 0.002) solutions. The ΔE00 values in the Ferro Sanol B/BisCover ( +) groups were significantly lower than in Ferrum/BisCover ( +) groups (p = 0.002), the second null hypothesis that different forms of iron syrups would not impact the staining resistance of restorative materials was rejected. ΔE00 values were different for each restorative materials tested, the third null hypothesis that the type of restorative material would not affect staining resistance was rejected. CONCLUSIONS The application of surface sealant significantly improved the color stability of restorative materials. The content of iron syrups was also an important factor affecting color change. Nanohybrid composites seem to be more resistant to the staining effects of iron syrups.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate lymph node (LN) density in retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) to analyze whether residual mass after chemotherapy might behave as predicting factor for recurrence in patients with germ cell testicular cancer (GCTC). MATERIALS AND METHODS The data of 185 patients that were operated between 12/2004 and 02/2017 because of GCTC were reviewed retrospectively. LN density was calculated. The patients were compared statistically in terms of demographic features, tumor characteristics, serum tumor marker levels, treatment strategies, and pathological results according to GCTC subtypes. Correlation analysis was performed to determine the parameters related to recurrent disease. RESULTS The median follow-up was 79 (31-179) months and the median age of the patients was 23 (16-71). The median tumor size was 4 (1-18) cm. Five (2.7%) patients had metastatic disease at initial diagnosis. Seminoma, non-seminomatous-GCT and mix type-GCTC was detected in 62 (33.5%), 60 (32.4%) and 63 (34.1%) patients, respectively. Following inguinal orchiectomy, 48 (25.9%) patients underwent follow-up, 126 (68.1%) patients underwent chemotherapy and 11 (5.9%) patients underwent radiotherapy. A total of 21 (11.4%) patients underwent post-chemotherapy RPLND. Early and late recurrence was seen in 3 (1.6%) and 2 (1.1%) of the patients, respectively. A mild to moderate, negative, but significant correlation was found between the recurrence and the number of LNs containing metastatic deposits and LN density (r= -0.490, P=.024 and r= -0.450, P=.041, respectively). CONCLUSIONS There was a negative correlation between the number of LNs containing metastatic deposits and LN density and recurrent disease.

Abstract
The study aims to establish how feasible a natural therapy option (safflower oil) is in the treatment of postoperative pain. Naproxen sodium has already been experimentally proven to be effective for this purpose. Accordingly, the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of safflower oil were compared with those obtained with benzydamine HCl and naproxen sodium. Forty-two, healthy, adult female rats of Wistar albino species were divided at random into six groups of seven rats. The intervention allocation was as follows: Group No. 1-physiological saline 0.9%; Group No. 2-safflower oil 100 mg/kg; Group No. 3-safflower oil 300 mg/kg; Group No. 4-benzydamine HCl 30 mg/kg; Group No. 5-benzydamine HCl 100 mg/kg; and Group No. 6-naproxen sodium 10 mg/kg. Following allocation of treatment, pain was induced experimentally and tested in various ways (hot plate test, tail-pinching test, and writhing test) and the efficacy of each treatment in providing peripheral and central analgesia was evaluated. The second stage consisted of providing different treatments to four groups (groups 7-10) of seven rats each, chosen at random. The allocations were as follows: Group No. 7-physiological saline 0.9%; Group No. 8-safflower oil 300 mg/kg; Group No. 9-benzydamine HCl 100 mg/kg; and Group No. 10-naproxen sodium 10 mg/kg. To create experimental inflammation, 2% formaldehyde was injected into the experimental animal's paw and the resulting edema was measured and recorded for a 10-day period. Edema inhibition was calculated as a percentage. The rats were sacrificed and the paw and stomach dissected for histopathological examination. The data were used for statistical analysis, using the Shapiro-Wilk, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and two-way analysis of variance. In the tail-pinching test, it was determined that a 300 mg/kg dose of safflower oil shows central spinal analgesic efficacy and this effect is close in magnitude to 10 mg/kg of the reference material, naproxen sodium. In the squirming test, it was observed that the 100 and 300 mg/kg doses of safflower oil had a peripheral analgesic effect when compared with the serum physiological (placebo) group. The peripheral efficacy of 300 mg/kg safflower oil was found to approximate that of 10 mg/kg naproxen sodium. In rats treated with benzydamine HCl 100 mg/kg, similar peripheral analgesic efficacy to naproxen sodium 10 mg/kg was noted. In the hot plate test, no difference in the analgesic efficacy between the various agents was found. The change in inhibition of edema between the 1st and 10th days was most marked in rats receiving naproxen sodium 10 mg/kg. A significant difference was determined in the safflower oil 300 mg/kg and benzydamine HCl 100 mg/kg groups (P < .001). Regarding histopathology findings in the rat paw, significant differences were seen in venous congestion between placebo and safflower oil 300 mg/kg and in inflammation between the control and benzydamine HCl 100 mg/kg groups. Regarding the histopathology findings in the rat stomach, significant differences were observed in venous congestion between placebo and safflower oil 300 mg/kg; in damage to the epithelium between placebo and safflower oil 300 mg/kg and between naproxen sodium 10 mg/kg and safflower oil; and in cell infiltration and development of edema between placebo and safflower oil 300 mg/kg. It is predicted that further research into safflower oil and benzydamine HCl will create opportunities to develop analgesic-anti-inflammatory therapeutics of a novel kind for the treatment of postoperative pain and inflammation.

Abstract
Liver transplantation (LT) is the best treatment option for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-mediated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Nevertheless, recurrence is the most important issue after LT. The aims of the present study were to evaluate the relation of dysregulated expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in recurrence formation in HBV-mediated HCC cases. A total of 42 HBV-mediated HCC patients were evaluated in this study. Among 21 miRNAs, the expression level of miR-106a and miR-21 were higher and miR-143 and miR145 were lower in patients with HCC compared with noncancerous liver tissues (P = .0388, P = .0214, P = .0321, and P = .002, respectively). Compared with nonrecurrent patients, the expression level of miR-21 was 3.54-fold higher and miR-145 was 2.42-fold lower in patients with recurrence during the 5-year follow-up (P = .004 and P = .032; respectively). In addition, according to multivariate Cox regression analysis, the overexpression of miR-21 was found to be a prognostic indicator in HBV-mediated HCC patients (P = .002). In conclusion, we show a significant association between high expression of miR-21 and recurrence in HBV-mediated HCC. Therefore, up-regulation of miR-21 could serve as a promising prognostic marker for HCC.

Abstract
The study was carried out to promote a greater awareness of the potential for colorectal cancer in young adults under 40 years of age. During the 8 years between 1986 and 1993, 237 patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon and rectum were operated at the Uludağ University Hospital. Of these 237 cases, 46 patients under 40 years old were reviewed retrospectively. They accounted for 19.4% of the total number of patients with carcinoma of the colon and rectum operated during the same period. Rectal bleeding was the most common presenting symptom. The mean duration of time from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis was 5.8 months. The rectosigmoid area was the most frequently involved site (80%). Seventy-six percent of the patients had Dukes’ stage C or D tumors. Forty-eight percent of the tumors were either poorly differentiated or mucinous. The cumulative survival rate at 5 years was 43.4%. Patients under 40 years old with carcinoma of the colon and rectum are usually symptomatic and have advanced disease at the time of presentation. Although colorectal cancer is usually a disease of older patients it is becoming more common in younger populations.

Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of l-arginine addition on long-term storability of ram semen. Six Akkaraman rams were used as material. Semen samples were collected. Pooled samples were diluted and were divided into six equal aliquots. While aliquot 1 was kept as control, the stock solutions including 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5 and 10 mm l-arginine were added to other aliquots. All aliquots were routinely frozen in 0.25-ml straws at -130°C liquid nitrogen vapour and stored in liquid nitrogen -196°C until being analysed. The equilibrated and thawed sperm motility, membrane integrity and arginase activity were evaluated. While the 10 mm l-arginine supplementation significantly (p < .001) decreased equilibrated sperm motility, the 5 mm significantly (p < .05) increased the membrane integrity and arginase activity in comparison with the control group. The motility (p < .001) and membrane integrity (p < .01) were determined to be highest in 0.5 mm group, while significant reductions were observed in motility (p < .001) of 10 mm group and arginase activity (p < .05) of 1, 10 mm groups as compared to the control group. It was concluded that in vitro addition of 0.5 mm l-arginine to ram semen may be useful, but 10 mm may be harmful to spermatozoa quality during long-term storage.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We investigated the use of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to improve the success rate of fat graft myringoplasty in perforated tympanic membranes of rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 20 healthy Wistar albino female rats were divided into two groups. In Group 1, the left tympanic membranes were perforated and grafted with a fat graft that was harvested from the inguinal region. In Group 2, the left tympanic membranes were perforated, and a fat graft was also harvested from the inguinal region. Then, the fat was soaked in 0.5 mL PRP and grafted at the perforation. After the procedure, the rats were examined, and the graft situation was assessed at 3, 5, 7, 10, and 14 days. All of the rats were sacrificed 21 days after perforation, and a histopathological examination was made. RESULTS We compared fat graft histopathological and otomicroscopic findings between the groups. While we did not observe graft rejections in Group 2, we saw 1 case of graft rejection in Group 1. In the histopathological examination, PRP prevents fat graft resorption by the terms of the adipocyte area, granulation tissue area, and vacuolization area. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the efficacy of fat grafts prepared with PRP on rat tympanic membranes. The fat graft with PRP did not statistically improve the success rate compared to the graft without PRP. Histopatologic findings of the study showed that PRP prevents fat graft resorption. Further studies are needed to further examine the advantages of the graft with PRP.

Abstract
Palliative care is an interprofessional approach that focuses on quality of life of patients who are facing life-threatening illness. Palliative care is consistently associated with improvements in advance care planning, patient and caregiver satisfaction, quality of life, symptom burden, and lower healthcare utilization. Most transplant patients have advanced chronic disease, significant symptom burden, and mortality awaiting transplant. Transplantation introduces new risks including perioperative death, organ rejection, infection, renal insufficiency, and malignancy. Numerous publications over the last decade identify that palliative care is well-suited to support these patients and their caregivers, yet access to palliative care and research within this population are lacking. This review describes palliative care and summarizes existing research supporting palliative intervention in advanced organ failure and transplant populations. A proposed model to provide palliative care in parallel with disease-directed therapy in a transplant program has the potential to improve symptom burden, quality of life, and healthcare utilization. Further studies are needed to elucidate specific benefits of palliative care for this population. In addition, there is a tremendous need for education, specifically for clinicians, patients, and families, to improve understanding of palliative care and its benefits for patients with advanced disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Acute phonotrauma is the result of sound production by shouting or straining one's voice. In this study, we aimed to investigate the acute changes in the vocal folds and voices of soccer fans who voluntarily applied to our clinic after the soccer match where they engaged in acute phonotrauma. There are no other studies in the literature conducted on a similar sample group. STUDY DESIGN This is a case-control study. METHODS Videolaryngostroboscopic (VLS) examination, acoustic voice analysis, and Voice Handicap Index (VHI) questionnaire were performed on 29 voluntary soccer fans included to the study before the match and at the first hour after the match. The values obtained were compared statistically with each other and with 29 control groups without voice pathology. RESULTS The jitter, shimmer, and normalized noise energy values measured after the match increased significantly statistically compared with the pre-match level, but harmonic noise ratio value decreased significantly (P < 0.05). VHI scores increased significantly after the match according to the pre-match scores (P < 0.05). In the VLS examinations, there was no difference in the images before and after the match. CONCLUSIONS It has been concluded that people who are using their voices loudly and intensely by shouting during the match are exposed to sound changes after the match, and if this situation becomes persistent, it may cause permanent voice pathologies. It is thought that VHI and acoustic voice analysis should be done together with VLS for diagnosis and follow-up of voice changes for which the VLS examination alone is not sufficient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS), comprising of 19 members is a family of peptidases. They have several vital functions in physiological and pathological processes in organisms. ADAMTS-9 has aggrecanolytic activity and is responsible for degradation of aggrecan mainly in articular cartilage. It is known that adiponectin is the most abundantly secreted adipokine (adipocytokines), and the characteristics of adiponectin have not been elucidated yet. It was assumed that adiponectin has anti-inflammatory effect before. However, an inflammatory feature of adiponectin was shown in researches. In our study, the effect of adiponectin on ADAMTS-9 gene expression in primary human chondrocytes was investigated. METHODS Primary human chondrocytes were exposed to adiponectin at 1, 4, 8 and 12 µg/ml doses for certain time period. Total RNA was isolated and reverse-transcribed by random primer after incubation. ADAMTS-9 and β-actin genes expression levels were determined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). RESULTS The highest upregulation of ADAMTS-9 gene expression level was found at 12 µg/ml dose of adiponectin and 48 h incubation. CONCLUSION Adiponectin is the key element in the maintenance of cartilage homeostasis. Similarly, the involvement of adiponectin in articular inflammatory diseases was demonstrated in detail. These findings bring adiponectin into central place in the research to develop adiponectin based new therapy methods for arthritic diseases. Together with these findings, our results suggest that adiponectin may be involved in the degradation of articular cartilage by increasing ADAMTS-9 gene expression (Tab. 1, Fig. 3, Ref. 35).

Abstract
AIM The Self-Adjusting File (SAF) system has been recommended for use in permanent teeth since it offers more conservative and effective root-canal preparation when compared to traditional rotary systems. However, no study had evaluated the usage of SAF in primary teeth. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the use of SAF, K file (manual instrumentation) and Profile (traditional rotary instrumentation) systems for primary-tooth root-canal preparation in terms of instrumentation time and amounts of dentin removed using micro-computed tomography (μCT) technology. MATERIALS AND METHODS Study Design: The study was conducted with 60 human primary mandibular second molar teeth divided into 3 groups according to instrumentation technique: Group I: SAF (n=20); Group II: K file (n=20); Group III; Profile (n=20). Teeth were embedded in acrylic blocks and scanned with a μCT scanner prior to instrumentation. All distal root canals were prepared up to size 30 for K file,.04/30 for Profile and 2 mm thickness, size 25 for SAF; instrumentation time was recorded for each tooth, and a second μCT scan was performed after instrumentation was complete. Amounts of dentin removed were measured using the three-dimensional images by calculating the difference in root-canal volume before and after preparation. Data was statistically analysed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Kruskal-Wallis tests. RESULTS Manual instrumentation (K file) resulted in significantly more dentin removal when compared to rotary instrumentation (Profile and SAF), while the SAF system generated significantly less dentin removal than both manual instrumentation (K file) and traditional rotary instrumentation (Profile) (p<.05). Instrumentation time was significantly greater with manual instrumentation when compared to rotary instrumentation (p<.05), whereas instrumentation time did not differ significantly between the Profile and SAF systems. CONCLUSION Within the experimental conditions of the present study, the SAF seems as a useful system for root-canal instrumentation in primary molars because it removed less dentin than other systems, which is especially important for the relatively thin-walled canals of primary teeth, and because it involves less clinical time, which is particularly important in the treatment of paediatric patients.

Abstract
A complete mechanical design concept of an electromyogram (EMG) controlled hybrid prosthetic hand, with 24 degree of freedom (DOF) anthropomorphic structure is presented. Brushless DC motors along with Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators are used to achieve dexterous functionality. An 8 channel EMG is used for detecting 7 basic hand gestures for control purposes. The prosthetic hand will be integrated with the Neural Network (NNE) based controller in the next phase of the study.

Abstract
AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the success levels of students using the Jigsaw learning method in dental education. METHOD Fifty students with similar grade point average (GPA) scores were selected and randomly assigned into one of two groups (n = 25). A pretest concerning 'adhesion and bonding agents in dentistry' was administered to all students before classes. The Jigsaw learning method was applied to the experimental group for 3 weeks. At the same time, the control group was taking classes using the lecture-based learning method. At the end of the 3 weeks, all students were retested (post-test) on the subject. A retention test was administered 3 weeks after the post-test. Mean scores were calculated for each test for the experimental and control groups, and the data obtained were analysed using the independent samples t-test. RESULTS No significant difference was determined between the Jigsaw and lecture-based methods at pretest or post-test. The highest mean test score was observed in the post-test with the Jigsaw method. In the retention test, success with the Jigsaw method was significantly higher than that with the lecture-based method. CONCLUSION The Jigsaw method is as effective as the lecture-based method.
