    The Effect of COVID-19 Fear in Patients and Clinical Nurses on Night Nursing Care
    (Sage Journals, 2023) Utli, Hediye; Dinç, Mahmut; Oner, Ugur
    This study was conducted with the aim of determining the effect of fear of COVID-19 in patients and clinical nurses on night nursing care. This was a cross-sectional study. The research sample consisted of 604 patients and 270 clinical nurses selected by the convenience sampling method. Data were collected between August 2021 and July 2022 using a Patients’ Information form, a Nurse’s Information form, the Fear of COVID-19 scale, and the Night Nursing Care instrument. No significant difference was found between the total mean scores of the patients and the nurses on the Fear of COVID-19 scale or the Night Nursing Care instrument (rho = –0.017, p = .702; rho = –0.020, p = .741). It was found that patients’ and nurses’ fears of COVID-19 did not affect their perceptions of night nursing care.

    The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on self-management in patients with type 2 diabetics
    (Elsevier, 2021) Utli, Hediye; Vural Doğru, Birgül
    Aims: The research was conducted with the aim of determining the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on levels of self-management in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Methods: This cross-sectional descriptive type of study was conducted between 21 December 2020 and 1 April 2021. It was performed with 378 individuals with type 2 diabetes attending the endocrinology clinic and outpatients' department of a government hospital who agreed to participate in the research. In the collection of data, a Patient Identification Form, Visual Analog Scales (an Anxiety VAS and a Stress VAS), and the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) were used. The Wilcoxon test, Independent Sample t test, One-Way Anova and binary logistic regression were used in the analysis of data. Results: The Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ) total mean score of the individuals with type 2 diabetes participating in the study during the COVID-19 pandemic was 5.25 ± 1.04. Their anxiety total mean score was 0.32 ± 1.56, and their total mean stress score was 7.06 ± 1.62. Being male, over the age of 65, married and having a diagnosis of diabetes for 6-11 years, increased smoking, the COVID-19 pandemic, reduced physical activity (not walking) and support obtained from health professionals, and increased anxiety and stress levels were found to be risk factors affecting diabetic self-management. Conclusions: The findings show that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a negative effect on the self-management levels of individuals with type 2 diabetes.

    The effects of Reiki and back massage on women's pain and vital signs post-abdominal hysterectomy: A randomized controlled trial: The Effects of Reiki and Back Massage on Women's Pain and Vital Signs
    (Elsevier, 2021) Utli, Hediye; Yağmur, Yurdagül
    Background: Using Reiki and back massage to support pharmacological treatments is increasingly common in nursing. This study aimed to determine the effects of Reiki and back massage on pain, analgesic use, and vital signs among women who had undergone an open abdominal hysterectomy. Methods: This experimental study involved a single, blinded, pretest-posttest design. The study population comprised women who had undergone an abdominal hysterectomy at the obstetrics clinics of Gazi Yasargil Training and Research Hospital and Dicl ¸ e University Hospital between July 2017 and February 2018. Patients were divided into three groups: a Reiki group, a back massage group, and a control group. Each group comprised 34 patients. Reiki or back massage was applied to patients in the respective non-control groups for 20 min once a day. Data were collected using a patient information form, the “Numeric Pain Rating Scale,” and the “Vital Signs and Postoperative Analgesic Follow-up Form.” Results: Statistically significant differences in pain intensity and analgesic use were observed between the women in the Reiki group and the women in the back massage and control groups (p < 0.001). Significant differences in vital signs were observed between the groups before and after their respective procedures; in the Reiki group, they tended to decrease, while in the back massage and control groups, they tended to increase. Conclusion: This study’s findings confirmed that pain, analgesic use, and vital signs decreased after Reiki among women who had undergone an abdominal hysterectomy

    Synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles decorated polydopamine coated hexagonal boron nitride and its effect on wound healing
    (Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2021) Tarhan, Tuba; Şen, Özlem; Emanet Ciofani, Melis; Yılmaz, Deniz; Çulha, Mustafa
    Background: Wound healing is an essential physiological process involving many cell types and their products acting in a marvellous harmony to repair damaged tissues. During the healing process, cellular proliferation and extracellular matrix remodelling stages could be interrupted by undesired factors including microorganisms and altered metabolic activities. In such a case, the process requires some external stimulants to accelerate or remediate the healing stages. Methods: In this study, we report a multifunctional wound healing stimulating agent. In this context, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanoparticles, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and polydopamine(pdopa) were used through mussel-inspired chemistry of dopamine to obtain pdopa coated hBN (hBN@pdopa) and AgNPs decorated hBN@pdopa (hBN@pdopa-AgNPs). These two nanostructures were investigated to observe stages of healing. Results: AgNPs were chosen for inflammation reduction and hBN for induced cell proliferation and migration. In in vitro experiments, firstly, high cellular uptake capacity and biocompatibility of hBN@pdopa and hBN@pdopa-AgNPs were evaluated. They were also tested for their reaction against increased concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in injured cells. Finally, their effect on cellular migration, intracellular tube formation and F-actin organization were monitored by light and confocal microscopy, respectively. Conclusion: The results clearly indicate that the hBN@pdopa-AgNPs significantly decrease ROS production, promote wound closure, and reorganize tube formation in cells.
