A Rare Cause of Dysphagia: A Giant Ganglioneuroma in Parapharyngeal Space
(Springer, 2022) Aslan, Mehmet; Dogukan, Fatih Mert
Parafarengeal ganglioneuroma is a very rare benign tumor originating from the sympathetic nervous system that produces mass and functional effects. Ganglioneuroma is most commonly caused by the posterior mediastinal, retroperitoneal area and adrenal glands. Generally, they do not present any additional signs or symptoms other than mass. Horner’s syndrome may sometimes occur due to the compression of the sympathetic chain. A 41-year-old male patient with a long-standing mass in the lateral compartment of the left neck was admitted to our clinic. The patient was operated, and the pathological result of the mass was reported as ganglioneuroma. We present a rare case of ganglioneuroma in paraphryngeal space by reviewing the current literature. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

Abu Ubayd’s Understanding Of Naskh;
(Hitit Univ, 2022) Yasar, Mehmet Aziz; Nas, Taha
In the period when Islamic sciences were formed, a large number ofscholars with absolute ijtihad capacity were trained. One of the scholars mentioned is Abu `Ubayd al- Qasim ibn Sallam al-Khurasani al-Harawi 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 Ebu Ubeyd as a follower of Imam Shafii. On the other hand, some Hanbali scholars have mentioned Ebu Ubeyd among the class of Hanbali scholars. However, it was concluded that it would be more correct to see Ebu 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. Ebu 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-Nasih ve'l-mensu. fi'l-kur.ani'l-aziz ve ma fihi mine'l-fera'iz ve's-sunen. While revealing Ebu Ubeyd's understanding of naskh, his work en-Nasi. ve'l-mensu. was used as the main source. In addition to this, his other works related to the subject, especially his work called Kitabu'l- emval, 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, Ebu 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. Ebu 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, tabi`in and early convert scholars. However, although Ebu 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 Ebu 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 Ebu 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. Ebu 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 ahad sunnah with its own like, no example has been encountered of the naskh of the ahad sunnah with its own like or with ahad and the ahad sunnah with the mutawatir sunnah. As it can be understood from my statements on the subject, Ebu 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.

Adsorptive Performance of Magnetic Nano-Biosorbent for Binary Dyes and Investigation of Comparative Biosorption
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Tarhan, Tuba; Tural, Bilsen; Boga, Kenan; Tural, Servet
The individual and competitive biosorption capacities of Metanil Yellow (MY) and Reactive Black 5 (RB5) by glutaraldehyde cross-linked magnetic chitosan nanoparticles (GMCNs) were studied. Competitive biosorption of the MY and RB5 dyes by the GMCNs has never been reported previously. Fourier transform infrared technique has been used to show the biosorbed MY and RB5 dyes onto GMCNs. During the studies, various essential factors influencing the biosorption, like adsorbate concentration, pH of the solution and contact time have been monitored.The equilibrium was achieved within 17 h for single dyes and 3 h for binary mixture at pH 3. The biosorption capacities were 620 mg/g for dye MY and 2549 mg/g for dye RB5 at pH 3, 30 degrees C. The second-order kinetic model has good compatibility with the dynamical biosorption behavior of a single dye and binary mixture. In order to study the competition biosorption of the RB5 and MY dyes in mixture solutions, the intraparticle diffusion model was used. Competition biosorption through analysis of the intraparticle diffusion model apparently favored the RB5 dye more than the MY dye on the GMCNs in mixture solutions. The biosorbent was regenerated efficiently through the alkaline solution and was then reused ten times for biosorption-desorption cycles.
Advances in Nano Vaccines: Covid-19
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2023) Asefy, Z.; Nasibova, A.; Hoseinnejhad, S.; Selimoğlu, A.; Baran, M.F.; Keskin, C.; 21.02.

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.
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.
Alzheimer’s Classification with a MaxViT-Based Deep Learning Model Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging
(Interdisciplinary Publishing Academia, 2025) Demirtaş Alpsalaz, S.; Aslan, E.; Özüpak, Y.; Alpsalaz, F.; Uzel, H.
Alzheimer’s disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, poses significant challenges for early diagnosis due to subtle symptom onset and overlap with normal aging. This study aims to develop an effective deep learning model for classifying four AD stages (Non-Demented, Very Mild Demented, Mild Demented, Moderate Demented) using brain MRI scans. We propose a Multi-Axis Vision Transformer (MaxViT)-based framework, leveraging transfer learning and robust data augmentation on the Kaggle Alzheimer’s MRI Dataset to address class imbalance and enhance generalization. The model employs MaxViT’s multi-axis attention mechanisms to capture both local and global patterns in MRI images. Our approach achieved a classification accuracy of 99.60%, with precision of 99.0%, recall of 98.1%, and F1-score of 98.51%. These results highlight MaxViT’s superior ability to differentiate AD stages, particularly in distinguishing challenging early stages. The proposed model offers a reliable tool for early AD diagnosis, laying a strong foundation for future clinical applications and interdisciplinary research in neurodegenerative disease detection. Future work should explore larger, more diverse datasets and additional biomarkers to further validate and enhance model performance. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

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.

Antifungal Activity of Endophytic Bacillus Spp. Bacteria and Its Effect on Root and Coleoptile Length During Germination Period
(Centenary University, 2025) Güney, İnci Güler
In this study, endophytic bacteria were isolated from roots and crowns of rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis L.), olive (Olea europaea L.), and loquat (Eriobotrya japonica L.) plant samples. The morphological and physiological properties of nine isolated endophytic bacteria were determined. All isolates were identified as Gram-positive, oxidase-positive and catalase-positive. Amylase, cellulase, and carbohydrate tests gave positive results. Antagonistic activities of the isolates against fungal pathogens varied between 85.7% and 52.9% against Fusarium culmorum and between 86.0% and 65.1% against Neoscytalidium dimidiatum. BMBA2 isolate gave the best results both in Petri dish antagonistic activity and in wheat seed germination in terms of root length and coleoptile length. BMBA2 isolates gave the best results with a coleoptile length of 7.58 cm and root length of 8.33 cm. In wheat seeds treated with F. culmorum and bacteria, the BMBA2 isolate gave the best result with a coleoptile length of 6.98 and a root length of 7.30 cm. For the identification of bacteria, in vitro BiBA1 and ND3BA were determined as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum; BiBA2 and YDBA as Bacillus subtilis; NDBA, ND2BA, BMBA1, BMBA2, and BMBA3 as Bacillus mojavensis. Since this is the first study to use endophytic Bacillus mojavensis as a biological agent against F. culmorum and N. dimidiatum pathogens, the results obtained from this study are thought to be important and promising in terms of application.

(CMB Assoc, 2023) Zhang, Na; Baran, Ayse; Valioglu, Ferzane; Teng, Lei; Atalar, Mehmet Nuri; Keskin, Cumali; Beilerli, Aferin
Verbascum thapsus (Mullein) is a medicinal plant used in folk medicine to treat various ailments. For this study, the biological functions of Verbascum thapsus (VT) methanol extract were determined in vitro. The plant's methanol extract was created through the maceration process. The phytochemical composition of plant extracts was investigated using liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. The antioxidant capacity of the extract was determined using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazil (DPPH radical) and 2,2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS radical). Cell lines Caco-2 (human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells), LNCaP (Lymph Node Carcinoma of Prostate), and HEK293 (Human embryonic kidney 293 cells) were used to model colon, prostate, and non-cancerous cells. The cytotoxic activity of the plant extract on the proliferation of these cells was determined by the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, a tetrazole) assay protocol. VT extract showed moderate DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities at 30 mg/ml concentration. With this, VT extract was determined to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme and had strong cytotoxic activity on cancerous cell lines. In addition, our findings clearly showed that the plant extract had greater cytotoxic activity on the viability of cancerous cells compared to non-cancerous (Human embryonic kidney cells; HEK293) cells. The current findings showed that V. thapsus might be a promising anti-cancer medication candidate for the treatment of human colorectal adenocarcinoma and colon cancer, as well as a good source antioxidans.

(Springer Nature, 2021) Yildirim, A.; Acay, H.; 09.03. Department of Nutrition and Dietetics/ Beslenme ve Diyetetik Bölümü; 9. Faculty of Health Sciences / Sağlık Bilimleri Fakültesi; 01. Mardin Artuklu University / Mardin Artuklu Üniversitesi
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.
Arap Edebiyatı Tarihi Yazımının Kuramsal ve Metodolojik Temelleri
(Hitit Univ, 2024) Simsek, Sultan; Araz, Ismail
The writing of literary history as a scientific discipline was initiated by Western researchers in the late 18th century, as a result of a modern research endeavor, distinct from the long-standing tradition of literary works. In the modern era, firstly the literature of the history of nations was written. Arabic literary history also benefited from this process, and it is considered one of the earliest examples of literary historiography. In the second half of the 19th century, the works of writers such as Hammer Purgstall (d. 1856) and Alfred von Kremer (d. 1889) on the history of Arabic literature emerged as pioneering studies. The writing process accelerated with Carl Brockelmann's (d. 1956) comprehensive work, leading to the production of numerous Arabic literary history books in both the West and the East, continuing to the present day. While this process contributed to enriching the literature of literary history, it also sparked various theoretical and methodological debates. Since the 19th century, different approaches have been proposed in the writing of Arabic literary history, and there is no theoretical unity in this regard. This situation, which complicates the understanding and interpretation of literary history works, poses an obstacle to developing literary history writing based on scientific criteria. To benefit greatly from reading literary history books, it is crucial to know the authors' perspectives, approaches to the subject, and methods. Aware of this importance, our article focuses on the theoretical and methodological framework used in studies of Arabic literary history. The article examines the writing theories and methods that are often not clearly and explicitly expressed by the authors in the writing of Arabic literary history. However, philosophical differences between the East and the West in literary historiography, the relationship between literature and history, criteria for determining periods, and the ideal method for writing literary history, which is beyond the scope of the article, are not discussed. The main aim of the article is to provide information about the methods and theories applied in Arabic literary history writing, to raise the awareness of researchers about the background of works in this field, offer a more informed reading perspective, and draw attention to the many aspects of the subject that still await further study. Today, despite the numerous studies on Arabic literary history that focus on specific periods, literary figures, and genres, research on theoretical approaches and methodology is almost nonexistent, leaving a significant gap in the field. Our article can be considered a modest step toward filling this gap. To substantiate the conclusions reached in the article, descriptive methods of qualitative research were employed throughout the study, and the obtained data were evaluated by using analytical methods. In this context, the emergence of Arabic literary history and its transmission to the Eastern world were highlighted to provide a better understanding of the scope of the subject. The article discusses how writing of literature history was applied among Arabic literary historians as a theoretical and methodological problem during this transmission process from the West to the East, based on primary sources. At this point, the methodological foundations and areas of influence in Arabic literary history writing were discussed. Additionally, the most widely adopted literary history method and its implications among the methodological problems were examined. As a result of the evaluations, it was determined that the methods followed in the writing of Arabic literary history were highly diverse and that some methods were synthesized. The article concludes that there is a need for indepth new research to evaluate holistically the accumulated knowledge in this area, given the diverse methods employed by literary historians, the complex and multifaceted nature of the field, and the lack of consensus on a single method.
Architectural Features and Typological Analysis of Historical Syriac Churches in Mardin Rural Area
(KeAi Communications Co., 2025) Dinç, Erdal; Dalkiliç, Neslihan
This study deals with the architectural features, typological diversity and sustainability of the historical Syriac churches in the rural areas of Mardin province in southeastern Turkey. Mardin countryside, which bears the traces of different civilisations starting from the pre-Christian period, is of great importance especially for the architectural and cultural heritage of the Syriac Orthodox community. Within the scope of the research, 61 churches and monasteries, most of which were built between the 4th and 9th centuries, were examined in detail, preserving their original structural features and survey drawings of these buildings were created. In this context, a typological classification of the churches and monasteries (monastery churches) in rural Mardin was conducted, identifying three main plan types: single nave village churches oriented along the east-west axis, multi-nave churches and monastery-type churches oriented along the north-south axis. Important architectural elements of these buildings, such as Kduskudshin, doors, windows and bell towers, were analysed in detail and their impact on the original character of the buildings was studied. The results of the study indicate that the preservation of Syriac religious buildings in rural Mardin is crucial not only for the conservation of these buildings but also for ensuring the continuity of the multi-layered cultural heritage of the region. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

(Istanbul Univ, 2025) Kodak, Ergul; Ciftci, Yunus; Kodak, Charlotte Labedan; Cin, Rustem
Boncuklu Tarla is a settlement located within the borders of the village of Il & imath;su in the Darge & ccedil;it district of Mardin. The settlement provides important information on the architecture ofthe PPNA and PPNB periods, in particularthe architectural traditions ofthe Middle PPNB, the focus ofthis article. In addition, these remain to allow the evaluation of village-space organization. The architectural remains found at Boncuklu Tarla also provide the opportunity to compare the Middle PPNB period architecture unearthed atvarious settlements such as & Ccedil;ay & ouml;n & uuml;, Nevali & Ccedil;ori, Gritille, Tell Halula, Akar & ccedil;ay Tepe, Gre F & imath;lla and Cafer H & ouml;y & uuml;k in a regional context. This study aims to present and discuss new information on how village spatial organization changed within the PPNB period, following on from previous discussions on the PPNA period data. Especially within the Middle PPNB period, it is thought that the village spatial organization model of being centered around public buildings was abandoned at Boncuklu Tarla. It is believed that with this change the public buildings were separated from the dwellings but still influenced their spatial organization.

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.
