Abu Ubayd’s Understanding Of Naskh;
(Hitit University, 2022) Yaşar, M.A.; Nas, T.
In the period when Islamic sciences were formed, a large number of scholars with absolute ijtihad capacity were trained. One of the scholars mentioned is Abu ‘Ubayd al-Qāsim ibn Sallām al-Khurāsānī al-Harawī who was educated by many famous scholars of the period, had a great influence on both the scientific and political circles. For this reason, he could not be shared by different sect biographers. As a matter of fact, some Shafi’i tabaqat writers counted Ebû Ubeyd as a follower of Imam Shafii. On the other hand, some Hanbali scholars have mentioned Ebû Ubeyd among the class of Hanbali scholars. However, it was concluded that it would be more correct to see Ebû Ubeyd as an independent mujtahid rather than a follower of any madhhab. For, in his own works, the fact that he refers more to Imam Malik rather than Imam Shafii and Ahmad ibn Hanbal and sometimes refers to the views of Abu Hanifa and Imamey indicates this. Ebû Ubeyd, who came to the forefront with his faqih and muhaddis aspects, had a deep knowledge of the subject of naskh, which has a close relationship with these two sciences, and in this regard, he wrote a rare work called en-Nâsiḫ ve’l-mensûḫ fi’l-Ḳurʾâni’lʿazîz ve mâ fîhi mine’l-ferâʾiż ve’s-sünen. While revealing Ebû Ubeyd’s understanding of naskh, his work en-Nâsiḫ ve’l-mensûḫ was used as the main source. In addition to this, his other works related to the subject, especially his work called Kitâbu’l-emvâl, were among the first hand sources that were consulted. It has been tried to determine his approach to naskh based on the statements he made on the subject and the examples he gave in this regard. In this context, Ebû Ubeyd’s approach to the nature and framework of naskh and his views on the evidences that can abrogate each other are examined in this study. Ebû Ubeyd discussed the abrogation in a broader sense as “the modification of a shar’i ruling by a later evidence”, not the established meaning in the methodology as “removal of a shar’i ruling with a later shar’i proof”. In this context, naskh is also used for the allocation of public, the denial of the absolute, the statement of conciseness, the correction of a wrong understanding and the exception made from a general rule. This is known as the understanding of naskh among the companions, tābi‘īn and early convert scholars. However, although Ebû Ubeyd is at the same age as Imam Shafii and has copied and benefited from his works, it is noteworthy that he preferred the predecessor’s approach to the subject rather than the naskh understanding he adopted. It is important to investigate this. He adopted the approach of the public regarding the Shari’a evidences of Ebû Ubeyd that could naskh each other. According to him, the verses of the Qur’an can naskh each other. He gave many examples of this. Another point that draws attention here is to ascribe the concept of naskh used for the verse of the Qur’an by Ebû Ubeyd, from the Lawh-i Mahfuz, in the form of a verse whose recitation is lasting and its meaning is naskhed, and a verse that is removed from people’s hearts by canceling both its recitation and used in different meanings. Ebû Ubeyd stated that sunnah can be naskhed with sunnah, without making any distinction between ahad and mutawatir about sunnah and its naskh. However, despite giving many examples of the naskh of the âhâd sunnah with its own like, no example has been encountered of the naskh of the âhâd sunnah with its own like or with âhâd and the âhâd sunnah with the mutawatir sunnah. As it can be understood from my statements on the subject, Ebû Ubeyd saw that it is permissible to naskh both mutawatir and ahad sunnah with the Qur’an. However, while there is an example for the naskh of the ahad sunnah with the Qur’an in his related works, there is no example for the other. Although there is no clear statement on the issue that the Qur’an can be naskhed with the sunnah, it is understood from some examples that he gives permission for this. © Published by Hitit Ü niversitesi İlahiyat Fakültesi – Hitit University Divinity Faculty, Çorum, Turkey.

Activated Carbon-Coated Iron Oxide Magnetic Nanocomposite (ionps@ctac) Loaded With Morin Hydrate for Drug-Delivery Applications
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2024) Dogan, Yusuf; Ozic, Cem; Ertas, Erdal; Baran, Ayse; Rosic, Gvozden; Selakovic, Dragica; Eftekhari, Aziz; Doğan, Yusuf
Cancer is a major disease that affects millions of people around the world every year. It affects individuals of all ages, races, and backgrounds. Since drugs used to treat cancer cannot distinguish between cancerous and healthy cells, they cause systemic toxicity along with serious side effects. Recently, controlled drug-release systems have been developed to reduce the side effects caused by anticancer drugs used for treatment. Morin is an anticancer drug with a flavonol structure. It has been extensively researched for its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antitumoral, and antibacterial properties, especially found in Chinese herbs and fruits, and its multiple positive effects on different diseases. In this study, a nanocomposite with magnetic properties was synthesized by coating biocompatible activated carbon obtained using the fruits of the Celtis tournefortii plant on the surface of iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles. Characterization of the synthesized activated carbon-coated iron oxide magnetic nanocomposite was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering, zeta potential, and vibrating sample magnetometry. The cytotoxic effects of the drug-loaded magnetic nanocomposite were examined in HT-29 (colorectal), T98-G (glioblastoma) cancer cell lines, and human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) healthy cell line. The morin loading and release behavior of the activated carbon-coated iron oxide magnetic nanocomposite were studied, and the results showed that up to 60% of the adsorbed morin was released within 4 h. In summary, activated carbon-coated iron oxide magnetic nanocomposite carriers have shown promising results for the delivery of the morin drug.

Acute Cyanide Intoxication Due To Apricot Seed Ingestion
(Soc Argentina Pediatria, 2024) Talay, Mehmet N.; Gungor, Emre; Orhan, Ozhan
Introduction : Cyanide poisoning, whether it be accidental or intentional, remains a significant danger to adults and children, especially in societies where agriculture is a primary source of income. We examined the clinical follow-up, complications, and results of cyanide poisoning cases that occurred after eating the pits and seeds of plants containing cyanide glycosides, such as apricot kernels and almonds. Methods : Between 01/01/2017 and 01/08/2022, 14 children aged 1-18 years who were followed up with a prediagnosis of cyanide poisoning in our Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) were retrospectively analysed. Results : Eight of the patients followed with a preliminary diagnosis of cyanide poisoning were female and six were male. The most common admission month was July (42.8%) coinciding with the agricultural season. The most common symptoms at presentation were weakness and fatigue (n = 7). In the PICU, 4 patients presented lip cyanosis; 3, altered level of consciousness. Vomiting, seizure, headache, dizziness and palpitatons were less frequent. Four patients were treated with hydroxocobalamin (Cyanokit (R) ) as an antidote due to acidosis in their blood gases. All patients treated for cyanide poisoning were discharged. Conclusions : Cyanide poisoning should be considered in paediatric patients with suspicious findings, sudden loss of consciousness, increased anion gap acidosis and lactic acidosis. The history of eating the seeds of plants such as apricot and almonds should be investigated .

Adaptation of the Vicarious Resilience Scale To Turkish: a Validity and Reliability Study
(American Psychological Association, 2025) Topçu, F.; Boz, C.; Şeneldir-Patolo, A.; Kitapçıoğlu, S.; Işıker-Bedir, D.; Sanyar, S.
Objective: The 27-item Vicarious Resilience Scale (VRS) is the first tool developed to measure vicarious resilience in mental health professionals working with trauma survivors. Given that the VRS measures the positive impact on therapists resulting from observing the healing process of trauma victims, it is especially significant to evaluate its validity and reliability in Turkish culture. This study aims to adapt the VRS to Turkish and examine its psychometric properties. Method: VRS was adapted and administered via electronic survey to 337 mental health professionals from around the globe working with survivors of severe traumas, such as earthquake survivors. The validity of the VRS was examined using different techniques: confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and criterion-related validity. Results: CFA yielded seven factors that were consistent with the original form: changes in life goals and perspective, client-inspired hope, increased recognition of clients’ spirituality as a therapeutic resource, increased capacity for resourcefulness, increased self-awareness and self-care practices, increased consciousness of power and privilege relative to clients’ social location, and increased capacity for remaining present while listening to trauma narratives. The Cronbach’s α reliability of the VRS was found to be.95; it displayed positive correlations with posttraumatic growth, psychological resilience, and quality of life, indicating convergent validity. However, it had a negative correlation with depression, anxiety, and stress, indicating discriminant validity. Conclusion: The VRS is a valid and reliable measurement scale by professionals working with trauma survivors to aid the recognition and cultivation of vicarious resilience in Turkish mental health professionals. © 2025 American Psychological Association
Adolescent Transport and Unintentional Injuries: a Systematic Analysis Using the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2022) Peden, Amy E.; Cullen, Patricia; Francis, Kate Louise; Moeller, Holger; Peden, Margaret M.; Ye, Pengpeng; Ivers, Rebecca Q.
Background Globally, transport and unintentional injuries persist as leading preventable causes of mortality and morbidity for adolescents. We sought to report comprehensive trends in injury-related mortality and morbidity for adolescents aged 10-24 years during the past three decades. Methods Using the Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factors 2019 Study, we analysed mortality and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs) attributed to transport and unintentional injuries for adolescents in 204 countries. Burden is reported in absolute numbers and age-standardised rates per 100 000 population by sex, age group (10-14, 15-19, and 20-24 years), and sociodemographic index (SDI) with 95% uncertainty intervals (UIs). We report percentage changes in deaths and DALYs between 1990 and 2019. Findings In 2019, 369 061 deaths (of which 214337 [58%] were transport related) and 31.1 million DALYs (of which 16.2 million [52%] were transport related) among adolescents aged 10-24 years were caused by transport and unintentional injuries combined. If compared with other causes, transport and unintentional injuries combined accounted for 25% of deaths and 14% of DALYs in 2019, and showed little improvement from 1990 when such injuries accounted for 26% of adolescent deaths and 17% of adolescent DALYs. Throughout adolescence, transport and unintentional injury fatality rates increased by age group. The unintentional injury burden was higher among males than females for all injury types, except for injuries related to fire, heat, and hot substances, or to adverse effects of medical treatment. From 1990 to 2019, global mortality rates declined by 34.4% (from 17.5 to 11.5 per 100 000) for transport injuries, and by 47.7% (from 15.9 to 8.3 per 100000) for unintentional injuries. However, in low-SDI nations the absolute number of deaths increased (by 80.5% to 42 774 for transport injuries and by 39.4% to 31 961 for unintentional injuries). In the high-SDI quintile in 2010-19, the rate per 100 000 of transport injury DALYs was reduced by 16.7%, from 838 in 2010 to 699 in 2019. This was a substantially slower pace of reduction compared with the 48.5% reduction between 1990 and 2010, from 1626 per 100 000 in 1990 to 838 per 100 000 in 2010. Between 2010 and 2019, the rate of unintentional injury DALYs per 100 000 also remained largely unchanged in high-SDI countries (555 in 2010 vs 554 in 2019; 0.2% reduction). The number and rate of adolescent deaths and DALYs owing to environmental heat and cold exposure increased for the high-SDI quintile during 2010-19. Interpretation As other causes of mortality are addressed, inadequate progress in reducing transport and unintentional injury mortality as a proportion of adolescent deaths becomes apparent. The relative shift in the burden of injury from high-SDI countries to low and low-middle-SDI countries necessitates focused action, including global donor, government, and industry investment in injury prevention. The persisting burden of DALYs related to transport and unintentional injuries indicates a need to prioritise innovative measures for the primary prevention of adolescent injury.

(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2023) Okten, Veysi; Yildiz, Resit; Sigircik, Goekmen; Yıldız, Reşit
PurposeThis study aims to prevent mild steel (MS) against corrosion in 0.5 M HCl solution, 2-amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine was used. The effectiveness of the compound as a corrosion inhibitor was studied via electrochemical, surface and theoretical calculation techniques. Design/methodology/approachFor concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 10.0 mM, almost similar polarization resistances were obtained from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and linear polarization resistance tests. It also investigated inhibitive activity of 2-amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine on the steel surface using scanning electron and atomic force microscope instruments. Langmuir adsorption is the best matched isotherm for the adsorption of the inhibitor to the steel surface. FindingsEIS method was used to determine inhibition efficiency, which was determined to be 95.7% for 10.0 mM inhibitor containing acid solution. Density functional theory's predictions for quantum chemistry agreed well with the other experimental results. Originality/valueThe methods used in this study are effective and applicable; the used organic inhibitor is 2-amino-4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazine; and protective effectiveness is important, which is crucial for the task of MS corrosion prevention.
Adsorption Performance of bacillus Licheniformis Sp. Bacteria Isolated From the Soil of the Tigris River on Mercury in Aqueous Solutions
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Baran, M. Firat; Yildirim, Ayfer; Acay, Hilal; Keskin, Cumali; Aygun, Husamettin
Mercury is known to be one of the most toxic heavy metals in the environment and is released into the water systems in significant quantities through natural events and industrial process activities. Many chemical materials are used as adsorbents in the removal of toxic metals from the environment and wastewaters. However, using microorganisms as bio-sorbents instead of chemical materials has become common recently due to their low cost, easy availability and presence in nature. In this study, Bacillus licheniformis in the soil isolated from the Tigris River was used as bio-sorbent. The mercury (Hg(II)) absorption behaviour of Bacillus licheniformis bacteria (BLB) was investigated using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The effects of equilibrium of adsorption time, temperature, adsorbent dosage and pH on the adsorption of Hg (II) onto BLB were determined. The maximum adsorption capacity of Hg (II) onto BLB was determined as 82.12 mg/g (T = 25 degrees C, pH 5, Co = 50 mg/L, m = 25 mg). The BLB was characterised using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis, thermal gravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy analysis and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis. In addition, pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models were applied. The equilibrium data for the adsorption of Hg(II) onto BLB were examined by the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models. The activation energy was calculated using the pseudo-second-order rate constant. These results suggested the BLB can be used as an efficient adsorbent for the removal of Hg(II) metal ions from wastewater. When the results of bio-sorption studies were examined, it was found that the bio-sorbent could be reused easily. The present study suggests that microorganism bio-sorbents are useful for the efficient removal of mercury from aqueous solutions.
Advanced Detection of Retinal Diseases Via Novel Hybrid Deep Learning Approach
(int information & Engineering Technology Assoc, 2023) Aykat, Sukru; Senan, Sibel; Aykat, Şükrü
Diabetic drusen, choroidal neovascularization (CNV), and macular edema (DME) are some retinal diseases that can cause severe blindness and vision loss. Early diagnosis of retinal diseases is vital to prevent this irreversible damage to the eye. The problem statement of this study can be given as presenting new deep learning based results for detecting these retinal diseases. For this purpose, OCT dataset was used to detect CNV, DME and Drusen patients. This data set, which is frequently used in the literature, consists of CNV, DME, Drusen and Normal retina images. RestNet50, InceptionV3, InceptionResnetV2, MobileNet, DenseNet-201, Xception, EfficentNetB4, EfficentNetB7 and EfficentNetV2S models of the CNN architecture were applied to the data set and the performance results of these models were obtained. Then, in order to increase the classification performance of each of these models, hyperparameter tuning was performed by reducing the learning rate by half in each epoch. Later, a hybrid version of the EfficientNetV2S and Xception convolutional neural network models, the most successful of these hyperparameter-tuned models, was developed. The performance analysis results of our proposed hybrid deep learning model are given by comparing them with traditional deep learning models in the literature. These comparison results show that the classification success of the proposed model is higher than the success of traditional deep learning models in the literature. Thus, the proposed hybrid model can shorten the clinical diagnosis time. In addition, the costs of healthcare services can be reduced by intervening in treatable diseases earlier, instead of more costly interventions in the advanced stages of the disease.
Aflatoxin M1 in Human Breast Milk in Southeastern Turkey
(Springer Verlag, 2017) Kılıç Altun, S.; Gürbüz, S.; Ayağ, E.
This study was performed to determine aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) in human breast milk samples collected in Şanlıurfa, located in Southeastern region of Turkey, and to investigate a possible correlation between AFM1 occurrence (frequency and levels) and sampling seasons. Human breast milk samples collected in December 2014 and in June 2015 from a total of 74 nursing women, both outpatient and inpatient volunteers in hospitals located in Şanlıurfa, Turkey, were analyzed using competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the presence of AFM1. AFM1 was detected in 66 (89.2%) out of 74 samples at an average concentration of 19.0 ± 13.0 ng/l (min.-max., 9.6–80 ng/l). There was a statistically significant difference between December and June concerning AFM1 levels (p < 0.05). Further detailed studies will be needed to determine the main sources of aflatoxins in food, to establish protection strategies against maternal and infant exposure to these mycotoxins. © 2016, Society for Mycotoxin Research and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
Ahmed Anzavur: Soldier, Governor, and Rebel. a Reevaluation of a Late Ottoman Military Man
(Oriental inst Czech Acad Sci, 2023) Yelbasi, Caner
Following the Russian conquest of the North Caucasus, many Muslims from the region were exiled to the Ottoman Empire from the 1860s onwards. They were settled in different parts of the empire from the Balkans to Anatolia to the Syria and Iraq vilayets. By following this policy, the Ottoman state ensured that many Circassians would become part of the Ottoman army, ruling elites, harems and agricultural workforce. Anzavur Ahmed's family was one of them. Although he did not graduate from military school, he participated in the army during the war in Libya (1911), the Balkan Wars (1912-1913), and the First World War (1914-1918). He was also appointed as the governor of Izmit (1920). Anzavur Ahmet is portrayed as a rebel by Turkish official historiography, but in reality, he was much more than that. He was an Ottoman Governor, and supported by Ottoman administrators such as Damad Ferid and Ali Kemal, who were against the Kuvayi Milliye because they believed that the empire would eventually emerge from the chaotic atmosphere of the post-First World War period and make an agreement with the British. This article argues that although Ahmed Anzavur has been labeled a rebel and a traitor according to the official historiography, it is difficult to use these labels given the circumstances of his time.
Al-Ikhwan Al-Safa' On The Ethical Dimensions Of Art: An Analysis On Music
(Ilahiyat Bilimleri Arastirma Vakfi, 2018) Kilic, Muhammet Fatih
Since Ancient Geek philosophy, one of the most fundamental problems of the aesthetics has been the relationship between ethics and aesthetics. At the beginning of the questions that determine the nature of this relationship is the question of whether an object which is subjected to the judgment of beauty should have an ethically related content. Until modern times, this question has been answered to the point that, an object which is subjected to the judgment of beauty must also bear an ethical value. This answer states that in order to qualify an object or thing as beautiful in aesthetic sense, it should be connected to the good in ethical sense. From Ancient Greek philosophy to Islamic thought, we can clearly see the ideas and theories about this close relationship between ethics and aesthetics. This study aims to reveal the integrity between ethics and aesthetics in the philosophy of the al-Ikhwan al-Safa', a group of philosophers living in Basra and its environs during 4th/10th century, through the art of music. For this purpose, it is discussed in this article how music influences on human morality in their philosophy. The relationship between music and morality could be established in two ways in the philosophy of the al-Ikhwan: metaphysical and physical ways. When they connect music to metaphysics, they argue that music is a door to metaphysics, unlike the other arts. They refer to the strong effect of music in the human soul when they compare it with the other arts. As an auditory art, music has a richness of meaning that transcends the boundaries of the physical world and language. Through the sense of sight, one knows only what is at his side, but through the sense of hearing he may know the metaphysical truths that transcend time-space dimensions. As an art based on the sense of hearing, music can convey metaphysical truths to the audience differently from the other arts based on the sense of sight. Accordingly, music is a door for humans to direct them to the metaphysical truths and to enrich their morality. The al-Ikhwan al-Safa' assert that music has a divine and prophetic sources. These sources render it in relation to the wisdom. This thought about the source of the music also provides an explanation of the legitimacy of music. In order to emphasize this ground of legitimacy, they give some examples of usage of music used during religious rituals. They also argue that music in these rituals enriches human's morality. Another dimension as a metaphysical level for the relation between music and ethics in the philosophy of the al-Ikhwan is the mathematical basis of music. According to them, mathematics is the first path to the discovery of divine wisdom. This is because God has created the world in a harmony with the supreme proportions that describe the specific relation between the world and the numbers. Music is an art that is located in mathematics and that these supreme proportions could be obviously seen. Accordingly, music presents definitively the truth, divine wisdom and secrets. The al-Ikhwan argue that music is similar and harmonious with the sounds that emerge from the movements of stars and planets. The happiness in the celestial world where there is no generation and corruption is reproduced by the artist in the world of generation and corruption through music. Thus, music increases the desire to rise to the celestial world. This desire is described by the al-Ikhwan as trying to resemble to God. This description demonstrate that they evaluate the nature of music in a metaphysical context. Consequently, performing music, according to them, creates a result that redirects the human to the metaphysics. This metaphysical redirection does not only have a theoretical dimension in the sense that one acquires knowledge of the truth, but also has a practical content in the act of human in the sense of the resemblance to God. This practical content concerns the moral development of a person. Regarding the relation between music and morality, the al-Ikhwan al-Safa' offer a physics-based explanation in addition to these metaphysical bases. They argue that music creates psycho-physiological effects on humans and that the melodies coming out of the strings of the lute influence the four elements; blood, yellow bile, black bile, and phlegm in the human body. The background of this explication is the Hippocratic-Galician medical theory, which has become widespread in the Islamic world since the ninth century. Within this theory, they reveal that music influences the physical and psychological states of human and that it can create permanent moral virtues such as courage, generosity, chastity, and mercifulness.
Ali Al-tusi's Contributions To the Seventeenth Discussion of Al-ghazali's Tahafut
(Beytulhikme Felsefe Cevresi, 2016) Kilic, Muhammet Fatih
In this paper, I analyze the 17th chapter of a 15th century Tahafut work by Ali al-Tusi which is devoted to the problem of causality. This analysis argues that Ali al-Tusi agrees with alGhazali's 17th discussion of causality and presents a number of conceptual and argumentative structures. Like al-Ghazali, Ali al-Tusi argues that the ontological relationship between cause and effect is not necessary and that this non-necessity does not weaken the certainty of our knowledge of the causal order. Ali al-Tusi differs from al-Ghazali by utilizing the concept of nafs al-amr in order to deny causal necessity, applying the distinction between true and ordinary causality for the two realms of causality (i.e. physical and metaphysical), and focusing on the contradictions between the physical and metaphysical explanations of the philosophers' theories of motion. Consequently, Ali al-Tusi's Tahafut cannot be considered as a commentary in the narrow sense, because he goes beyond the original context of al-Ghazali by taking into account post-classical thought on causality.
Amino Acid Profile, Nutrients Content and Yield of Chickpea (Cicer Arietinum L.) Genotypes
(Scibulcom Ltd., 2015) Dogan, Y.; Doğan, Yusuf
Chickpea has significant amounts of all the essential amino acids except sulphur-containing types. It was found that chickpea is a rich source of protein and minerals. The experiments were conducted in a Randomised Complete Block Design with three replications 2013 and 2014 years in South-Eastern Turkey. A total of fifteen varieties, lines and populations were used as materials. In the study were investigated different parameters such as amino acids of protein, seed yield, protein and fat rate in seed, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, manganese, zinc, copper and iron contents and of seeds. The essential amino acid leucine (8.43 mg/100 g in 2013 and 8.59 mg/100 g in 2014) was found in highest concentration, followed by lysine (7.14 mg/100 g in 2013 and 7.27 mg/100 g in 2014) and phenylalanine (5.99 mg/100 g in 2013 and 6.07 mg/100 g in 2014) in the chickpea. Mineral composition of chickpea genotypes showed that they contribute sufficient amount of Ca, P, K, Cu, Zn and Mg in human diets to meet the recommended dietary allowance. According to the average of two years, the highest grain yield was obtained from Diyar-95 variety with 1618 kg ha–1, the lowest grain yield was obtained from M-1 local population with 1104 kg ha–1. © 2015, Scibulcom Ltd.

An Examination of the Effects of Propolis and Quercetin in a Rat Model of Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
(Mdpi, 2024) Tueredi, Sibel; Celik, Hakim; Dagli, Seyda Nur; Taskin, Seyhan; Seker, Ugur; Deniz, Mustafa
The purpose of this study was to reveal the combined effects of propolis (P) and quercetin (Q) against diabetic peripheral neuropathy developing with streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats. Sixty-four adult male rats were divided into eight equal groups: control, P (100 mg/kg/day), Q (100 mg/kg/day), P + Q (100 mg/day for both), diabetes mellitus (DM) (single-dose 60 mg/kg streptozotocin), DM + P, DM + Q, and DM + P + Q. The rats were sacrificed, and blood and sciatic nerve tissues were collected. Blood glucose and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels increased, while IL-6 and total antioxidant status decreased in the DM group (p = 0.016 and p = 0.047, respectively). Ultrastructural findings showed degeneration of the axon and myelin sheath. The apoptotic index (AI %), TNF-alpha, and IL-1 beta immunopositivity increased significantly in the DM group (p < 0.001). Morphological structures approaching those of the controls were observed in the DM + P, DM + Q, and DM + P + Q groups. Morphometric measurements increased markedly in all treatment groups (p < 0.001), while blood glucose and MDA levels, AI (%), TNF-alpha, and IL-1 beta immunopositivity decreased. In conclusion, the combined effects of propolis and quercetin in diabetic neuropathy may provide optimal morphological protection with neuroprotective effects by reducing hyperglycemia, and these may represent a key alternative supplement in regenerative medicine.
Analyses of Po-Based Fuzzy Logic-Controlled Mppt and Incremental Conductance Mppt Algorithms in Pv Systems
(Mdpi, 2025) Cakmak, Fevzi; Aydogmus, Zafer; Tur, Mehmet Rida
This manuscript aims to increase the utilization of solar energy, which is both environmentally friendly and easily accessible, to satisfy the energy needs of developing countries. In order to achieve this goal, maximum power generation should be provided from photovoltaic panels. Several maximum power point tracking (MPPT) methods are utilized for maximum power generation in photovoltaic panel systems under different weather conditions. In this paper, a novel intelligent hybrid fuzzy logic-controlled maximum power point tracking algorithm founded on the perturb and observe (PO) algorithm is presented. The proposed fuzzy logic controller algorithm and the incremental conductivity maximum power point tracking algorithm were simulated in a MATLAB(2018b version)/Simulink environment and evaluated by comparing the results. Four Sharp ND-F4Q295 solar panels, two in series and two in parallel, were used for the simulation. In this study, the voltage ripple of the proposed hybrid method was measured at 1% compared to the classical incremental conductivity method, while it was 8.6% in the IncCon method. Similarly, the current ripple was 1.08% in the proposed hybrid FLC method, while the current ripple was 9.27% in the IncCon method. It is observed that the proposed smart method stabilizes the system voltage faster, at 25 ms, in the event of sudden weather changes.
Analysis of legionella and Some Chemicals in Water Samples in Mardin Province
(Kahramanmaras Sutcu Imam Univ Rektorlugu, 2022) Dundar, Abdurrahman; Yildirim, Idris; Dundar, Nagihan Demir
In this study microbiological and chemical analyzes were carried out on water and swab samples taken from two water wells, a water tank and taps of buildings belonging to a public institution in Mardin Province. In these specimens the presence of Legionella and its serogroups as well as the parameters such as chlorine, nitrate, nitrite concentration, pH level and electrical conductivity were analyzed. While Legionella growth was not observed in 25 water samples, L. pneumophila serogroup 1 was detected in 4 of 25 swab culture samples taken from the same places. The pH values of water samples ranged from 7.53 to 8.02 the lowest pH value was observed in well no 1 as 7.53 while the highest was observed in well no 2 as 8.02. The lowest electrical conductivity value was measured at well 2 as 376.44 mu S cm(-1) and the highest was measured as 446.57 mu S/cm from well 1. As a result of the analyzes made in our research nitrite was not detected in any of the water samples. Whilst the nitrate amount was found to be the lowest with 4.30 ppm in the well, the highest with 10.85 ppm in the well 2. The chlorine values in the well 1 and 2 from which water samples were taken and the main tank were measured as 2.21, 2.05 and 2.43 ppm respectively. These values were found to be in the range of 1.68-1.73 ppm in the samples taken from the building taps.
Analysis of Lipid Classes and the Fatty Acid Composition of Fresh and the Salted Fish, Alburnus Tarichi
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Kizmaz, Veysi
This study was carried out to determine the distribution of total, phospholipid and triacylglycerol fatty acid composition in salted and fresh fish of pearl mullet. Fatty acid analyses were performed in muscle tissues of the fish samples. Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), Omega-3 (n-3), Omega-6 (n-6) which are important for health, were determined in the analyses. The distribution of total and TAG fatty acids in males and females was similar. It was determined that the changes were in the Phospholipid. N-3/n-6 ratio showed a similar distribution in both female and male individuals. In particular, the results obtained may benefit the fisheries industry, nutritionists and researchers, as the nutritional value of the fish is high.
Analyzing the Environmental Kuznets Curve Hypothesis in Terms of Economic Growth and Different Types of Globalization in Turkiye
(Istanbul Univ, 2023) Polat, Melike Atay; Ergun, Suzan
Environmental pollution has become one of the issues most widely discussed by researchers, scientists, and policy makers these days. In particular, investigating the determinants of CO2 emissions is one of the leading areas of interest for scientists. Meanwhile, globalization causes countries to interact with each other economically, politically, and socially, and this interaction inevitably affects the environment. Therefore, globalization is an important determinant of CO2 emissions. This study aims to evaluate the dynamic effects different types of globalization (economic, social, and political) have on environmental quality in Turkiye with reference to the environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis during the 1970-2018 period using the vector error correction model (VECM). The presence of a long-term relationship among CO2 emissions per capita, GDP per capita, economic globalization, social globalization, and political globalization for Turkiye has been demonstrated using the Johansen cointegration test. According to the results, the VECM Granger causality test has determined a short-term one-way causality nexus from economic globalization to CO2 emissions and from social globalization to political globalization. In terms of long-term estimators, the study has concluded GDP per capita, economic globalization, and social globalization to significantly and positively affect CO2 emissions per capita and the square of GDP per capita and political globalization to negatively affect CO2 emissions per capita at a significant level..
