Adaptation of the Employee Spirituality Scale Into Turkish: a Study on Healthcare Workers
(Halil Eksi, 2025) Apak, H.
This study aimed to adapt the Employee Spirituality Scale to Turkish culture for healthcare professionals. A total of 230 healthcare workers participated in the adaptation of the scale, which comprises 24 items. The research data were collected face-to-face with a questionnaire that included demographic characteristics, the Employee Spirituality Scale, and the Spiritual Orientation Scale. Construct validity was analyzed using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses. The two-factor structure of the Employee Spirituality Scale was confirmed in the Turkish sample and showed acceptable fit values. Because of CFA, 2 items were removed from the scale because they did not fit. For criterion validity, the Pearson Correlation Coefficient between the scale and the Spiritual Orientation Scale was calculated, and a significant positive result was obtained. This study demonstrated that the Turkish version of the Employee Spirituality Scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool for health care workers to assess the various dimensions of human spirituality that give individuals a sense of guidance, facilitate finding meaning and purpose in one’s tasks, enable them to overcome their weaknesses and limitations in the workplace, and assess various dimensions of human spirituality as a relationship with a higher power. © 2025 by Author(s).
Advances in Nano Vaccines: Covid-19
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2023) Asefy, Z.; Nasibova, A.; Hoseinnejhad, S.; Selimoğlu, A.; Baran, M.F.; Keskin, C.
Nanovaccines are considered a new approach in vaccination methodology specially for Covid-19 infection. Nanovaccines are more effective than conventional vaccines; Because ofhumoral and cellular immune responses which are simultaneously induced. Nano vaccines are assumed to upregulate the immune system as well as infection prevention. They are probably promising candidates for chronic autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, AIDS, and COVID-19 infectious. Based on this, we will describe the different working mechanisms of nanoparticles. In addition, applicable nano vaccines which have been approved for COVID-19 therapy Covid 19 are described. Antigen-carrying nanoparticles can affect the immune response and significantly enhance cell-T cytotoxic response. Nanoscale particles can improve vaccine efficiency because of their biomedical benefits. These properties include Small size, which allows better penetration into tumors and more half-life tumor cells. Current vaccines, however, are required to re-formulate almost because of gradual antigen modifications. More ever these vaccines do not protect against mutations and the low half-life of current vaccines due to limitations of current technologies. Nano vaccine formulation improvements have been required to induce a widespread and potent immune response. In this review, we provide an overview ofthe types and applications of nanoparticles in vaccines and their outstanding properties that made them alternatives for Covid-19 treatment. © 2023, Bentham Books imprint.

Türkiye’de 06 Şubat 2023 tarihinde yaşanan Kahramanmaraş depremleri, etkili olduğu bölgelerde eğitim süreçlerini uzun süre aksatmıştır. Depremlerin ardından, eğitim amaçlı birçok prefabrik yapı kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Çalışma, prefabrik eğitim yapılarının sürdürülebilirliğine yönelik öneriler geliştirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda sürdürülebilirlik sertifikasyon sistemlerinin değerlendirme kritlerleri ortaya konmuş ve prefabrik Diyarbakır Bağlar Anadolu Lisesi incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın bulguları, prefabrik yapıların malzeme ve kaynak ile iç mekan ortam kalitesi gibi kriterlerde olumlu değerlendirme puanları aldığını ancak enerji ve yenilik kriterleri açısından oldukça zayıf kaldığını göstermiştir. Ayrıca başta gürültü olmak üzere kirlilik kriterine yönelik alınan önlemlerin yetersiz olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada afet sonrası inşa edilecek prefabrik eğitim binalarına yönelik öneriler sunulmuş ve hızlı bir çözüm sunan prefabrik yapıların, uzun vadeli sürdürülebilirlik hedefleri doğrultusunda kapsamlı değerlendirilmelerinin yapılması gerekliliği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
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.
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.

Anaphylaxis
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2023) Ayik, D.B.; Dogan, D.A.
Anaphylaxis is a serious condition that usually occurs suddenly and requires immediate treatment, which can lead to hypoxemia and/or shock and death. Nurses should be able to recognize early signs of anaphylaxis and know how to intervene appropriately. Although the risk of complications from anaphylaxis can be reduced with timely and appropriate treatment, the ideal approach is to prevent anaphylaxis from developing. Routine education of patients and their families is critical to prevent recurrence of anaphylaxis, and teaching this knowledge is a key role of the nurse. © 2023 by Nova Science Publishers, Inc.

(Murat Yakar, 2021) Akan, A.E.; Ünal, F.
In this study, information is given about the driers commonly used in the industry and the experimental errors and uncertainties that will be encountered in the experiments using these driers are tried to be explained by using the data obtained from the experiments carried out in an 8 chambers hot oil heated stenter, which is a conveyor type convection dryer. The fabric used in the experiments is the Thessaloniki type fabric, containing 67% cotton and 37% polyester. The experiments were carried out at a drying air temperature of 160 ºC and a fabric advance rate of 23 m/h (0.383 m/s). Thus, the example of error analysis in such experimental studies is provided and criteria that may cause an error for drying systems are discussed. As a result of the uncertainty analysis, the largest uncertainty in the system occurred in temperature measurements at ±0.367-±0.568 ºC values and the error rate for the whole system was found to be 4.08%. In terms of conducting the experiments in real production conditions and the materials and methods used in the experiments, this study is thought to will be help researchers that working on drying systems in their experimental studies. © Author(s) 2021.
Applications of Biodegradable Green Composites
(Springer Nature, 2021) Yildirim, A.; Acay, H.
Materials called biodegradable green composites consisting of matrices and reinforcers made entirely from natural resources are macro-, micro-, or nano-sized materials that can fulfill desired mechanical and thermal properties as well as being light. Producing natural polymers with good mechanical properties and thermal stability has attracted the attention of many researchers. The use of this material through a variety of mixtures and composites has become more and more popular as raw materials are limited and there is more concern about greener material that is environmentally friendly. Therefore, materials made from renewable sources such as biocompatible/biodegradable polymers can dominate the future by replacing the petroleum raw material. However, more efforts are needed to achieve better properties of the renewable polymer blend and composites and also to address the deficiencies of this new material. To do this, a basic understanding of renewable material types, structures, properties, and potential applications as needed. The study covers the application areas of biodegradable green composites. The stated application areas can be literature support for the rapid development of biodegradable composites at the request of researchers, manufacturers, and consumers for environmentally friendly products. © 2021, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

Architecture in Crisis: Exception as a Form of Decay
(Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile, 2016) Tan, P.
Although Agamben defines the camp (concentration or refugees camp) as the paradigm of the state of exception, this statement overlooks not only the physical and spatial conditions of the camp, but also everyday practices that take place inside. Analyzing the spatial practices in current refugee camps in Turkey, the text shows that its design often forgets the very humanity of the refugee. © 2016, Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile.

Botulism
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2024) Dicle, Y.
Botulism is a rare but serious illness caused by a toxin produced by the Clostridium botulinum bacterium. The toxin can cause paralysis and, in severe cases, it can be fatal. Botulism can be contracted through contaminated food, wound infections, or the use of contaminated drugs. Symptoms typically appear within six to 36 hours after exposure and include blurred vision, dry mouth, difficulty swallowing, and muscle weakness. Diagnosis is typically made through laboratory testing of blood or stool samples from a patient. Treatment involves administering antitoxin medication and supportive care to manage symptoms. Prevention measures include proper food handling and preparation, wound care, and avoiding the use of illicit drugs. While botulism is rare, it is a serious condition that requires prompt medical attention. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve outcomes and reduce the risk of complications. © 2024 Nova Science Publishers, Inc. All rights reserved.

British Orientalist And Intelligence Officer David George Hogarth's Perspective On The Palestinian Territory And Issue;
(Muhammed Mustafa KULU, 2024) İpek, M.
Due to its geopolitical position and the location of the holy shrines of the three holy religions, the Palestinian region has been a geography of interest to great powers throughout history. From the 19th century to the mid-20th century, the Britain was among the states that attached importance to the Palestine region in order to protect its interests in the Middle East and to be the defender of the Christian religion. Some politicians, clergymen, scientists and military officers working in official and private institutions within the British State also came to the Palestine region to protect the interests of their countries in the Middle East. The defenders of the state, who worked in different branches, gathered information about the Palestinian region and presented articles that would help the imperialist policies of their countries. Among the British who travelled to the Middle East and Palestine to protect their country's interests was the orientalist, researcher, writer and intelligence officer D. G. Hogarth (1862-1927). During his scholarly work in the Middle East between 1887 and 1915, during and after World War I, Hogarth wrote numerous military-political reports, letters, memoranda and academic papers on the Palestine region and issue. This study analyses the views, recommendations and warnings of the orientalist Hogarth on the Palestinian region and issue in the context of his texts. © 2024, Muhammed Mustafa KULU.

A Chalcedonian Conundrum: the Singularity of the Hypostasis of Christ
(Sankt-Peterburgskoe Obshchestvo Vizantino-Slavyanskih Issledovanii, 2014) Krausmuller, D.
The Chalcedonian theologians considered Christ as a hypostasis which is a composite of two parts. At the same time they adapted the conceptual framework that the Cappadocians had developed for the Trinity (the beings which share a set of natural idioms are distinguished from each other through specific characteristics that accede to these idioms). Having taken these steps, however, they ran into a serious problem. One can only meaningfully speak of hypostases within a particular species because if beings have different sets of natural idioms one cannot single out the specific characteristics that would constitute them as hypostases. Yet Christ does not belong to a species. This leads to the inevitable conclusion that Christ is not a hypostasis. In this article I will explore how four different Chalcedonian theologians of the sixth and early seventh centuries - Leontius of Byzantium, Pamphilus, Eutychius of Constantinople and Leontius of Byzantium - approached this problem and what solutions they proposed.
Classification of Eeg Signals Using Hilbert-Huang Transform-Based Deep Neural Networks
(IEEE, 2019) Zan, Hasan; Yildiz, Abdulnasir; Ozerdem, Mehmet Sirac; Zan, Hasan
Epilepsy is one of the most common neurologic disease. Electroencephalogram (EEG) contains physiologic and pathological information related human nervous system. EEG signals used in this study are obtained from Bonn University, Department of Epileptology EEG database. Original database has five subsets (A, B, C, D, E). Data have been reorganized into three groups which are healthy (AB), interictal (CD) and ictal EEG signals. Furthermore, in order to examine effect of signal length on classification performance, three different lengths are used. Hilbert-Huang transform is applied to the signals and they are represented as image files. Then, generated images are fed into deep neural networks with five different structures for classification. Accuracy is calculated for all cases to asses performance of proposed method. it is clear that successful results could be obtained using Hilbert-Huang transform along with deep learning networks.

(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Cizreliogullari, Mehmet Necati
This study investigates issues relating to community displacement of the indigenous residents of Famagusta resulting in an increased rate of relocation to the suburbs due to the sudden growth of educational tourism; thus, the main objective of the current study is to obtain perspectives of learners on primary motives. An in-depth interview of 28 Cypriots in Famagusta, through purposive sampling was used to gather data for the current research. Findings reveal that the increase in educational tourism in Famagusta caused the indigenous Cypriots to move into suburban neighbourhoods. Factors including urbanization issues, social issues, economic issues, cultural issues, and environmental issues were revealed to be the most challenging issues resulting in community displacement.
Comparison of Chitosan-Containing Hemostatic Pad and Manual Compression After Coronary Angiography With Femoral Access
(Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia, 2024) Kiliç, R.; Güzel, T.; Aktan, A.; Kaya, A.F.
Background: Femoral access remains a common choice in coronary angiography due to its easy accessibility and high success rate. Various techniques exist for achieving hemostasis following femoral artery catheterization. Objectives: The aim of our study is to compare the methods of chitosan-containing hemostatic pad (HP) and manual compression (MC) in terms of efficacy and safety in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with coronary angiography via femoral access. Method: A total of 204 patients from 3 centers were included in our study between August 2021 and June 2023. The patients were divided into 2 groups, HP and MC, with 102 patients in each. Patients were evaluated for back and low back pain, complications, and duration of hemostasis immediately after angiography and up to 24 hours. Student’s t test and Mann-Whitney U test were used for numerical variables, while chi-square test was used for categorical variables. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Hemostasis time and back and low back pain were significantly lower in the HP group (7.5 ± 1.1 versus 15.1 ± 1.6, p < 0.001 and 2.13 ± 1.29 versus 4.22 ± 1.69, p < 0.001, respectively). While ecchymosis was found to be significantly lower in the HP group (2.9% versus 14.7%, p = 0.003), there was no significant difference in terms of other complications. Conclusion: HP was found to be more advantageous than MC in patients who underwent coronary angiography with femoral access. While ecchymosis and back and low back pain were found to be lower in the HP group, the absence of the need for sandbags also increases patient comfort. © 2024, Sociedade Brasileira de Cardiologia.

Comparison Of Different Life Stages Of Total, Phospholipid And Triacylglycerol Fatty Acids Of Lucilia Sericata
(ABADER (Adıyaman Bilimsel Arastırmalar Dernegi), 2021) Kizmaz, V.
Lucilia sericata, which belongs to the Calliphoridae family (Diptera), is used as a debridement tool in open necrotic wounds that do not respond to conventional treatments. Knowing the total, phospholipid (PL), and triacylglycerol (TAG) fatty acid content of L. sericata fly, which is important for health, in its different stages is important both in terms of taxonomy and physiology. After L. sericata samples used in the study were obtained commercially, they were bred under laboratory conditions and then the fatty acids in different stages were analyzed by gas chromatography. Sixteen fatty acids are determined as a result of the analysis. When individual fatty acids are considered, Palmitic acid (16:0), Palmitoleic Acid (16:1n-7), oleic acid (18:1n-9) and Linoleic Acid (18:2n-6) were found to be major ones, while the others are detected in trace amounts. It is determined that, out of total, PL and TAG, saturated fatty acids (SFA) are found at a high percentage in the eggs, monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA) are the highest in the larvae, and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) are the highest in fly and pupa. Furthermore, out of total, PL and TAG, ∑PUFA is at a low percentage in the egg and the larval stages. Different results are found at different stages in this study. This may be because fatty acid percentages that change during metamorphosis meet different physiological needs at different phases. © 2021, ABADER (Adıyaman Bilimsel Arastırmalar Dernegi).
