the altitude of 20m and 30m have also been accounted at excell computer program using Hellman‘s
Relation. The theoretical power, net power and electricity energy values of each hour to be produced
from the 2kW, 3kW and 5kW’ wind tribunes for the altitudes of 10m, 20m and 30 metres have been
accounted one by one.
At the end of the study, it has been concluded that the basic needs such as the enlightening and
computer of the Vocational high school can easily be obtained from a wind tribune with little power
Examining the Relationship Between School Administrators' Leadership Styles and Teachers' Organizational Happiness
This study aimed to examine the predicting level of the leadership styles of school
administrators on the organizational happiness level of teachers. The research was
designed according to the sequential explanatory method, one of the mixed methods. First,
the quantitative data were analyzed, then the qualitative data were examined. For the
research, quantitative data were collected by applying the School Principals Leadership
Style Scale and the Teacher Organizational Happiness Scale to the teachers working in the
Güngören district of Istanbul. In the quantitative data collection part of the study, 323
participants were reached. Participants were selected by simple random sampling method.
Qualitative data were obtained with semi-structured interview questions developed by the
researchers. Eight volunteer participants were interviewed. According to the study’s
quantitative findings, it was determined that the happiness level of teachers was high, and
school administrators showed transformational leadership characteristics. According to
the study's qualitative data, it was determined that the organizational happiness of the
teachers was related to the relations with the manager, colleague relations, working
conditions, and personality traits. Based on the research results, it has been proposed to
increase the number of studies that address the professional happiness of teachers with
different types of leadership. In addition, it is proposed to improve the economic situation
of teachers. Finally, school administrators should pay attention to the school climate to
increase teachers' happiness
Investigation of opportunities the addition of canned watermelon pomace and watermelon juice produced from unmarketable watermelon in broiler quail ration
This study was conducted to evaluate the use of watermelon pomace and watermelon juice obtained from unmarketable watermelon in the diets of fattening quails. A total of 90 Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) wereassigned to three groups (30 quails in each group), each comprising of 5 replicates each having 6 quails. One groupwas designated as control groups whereas other groups fed 5% watermelon pomace or watermelon juice on dry matter basis. All the diets were isonitrogenous and isocaloric formulated in order to meet the nutrient requirements ofquails outlined in NRC standards. Live weight was greater in quails fed watermelon pomace compared with controlgroup in first week only (P0.05). Infirst week and overall period (1 to 4 wk), average daily feed intake (ADFI) was higher in control group than quailsfed watermelon juice which, in turn, was higher in comparison with those fed watermelon pomace (P0.05). In conclusion,it was observed that watermelon pomace can be used in quail diets having additional growth enhancer properties
The Investigation of Language Teacher Candidates’ Self-efficacy and Writing Anxiety in Processual Context
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the self-efficacy perceptions and writing anxiety of the Turkish language teacher candidates that receive training for learning and teaching language in a processual context. The research has been carried out with a total of 113 teacher candidates that study at the Department of Turkish Language in the first (n=56) and third (n=57) grades. The reason is that the first graders are beginner and they receive Written Expression classes; and the third graders receive Writing Education classes. The data from both grades have been collected by using the Writing Self-efficacy Perception Scale (WSPS) and the Writing Anxiety Scale (WAS) at the beginning and at the end of the term. The collected data have been analyzed both in respective class levels and by comparing to the other class level. The result of the research shows that the writing anxiety has decreased and the writing self-efficacy perception has increased in the first grader candidates. Whereas in the third grader candidates, the writing anxiety has increased and the writing self-efficacy perception has decreased. This has been interpreted as the professional awareness of the candidates increases depending on the grade level. Another result of the research is that the revision and editing (RE) factor in the writing process is higher in the female candidates than the male candidates. The findings obtained in the research bear a resemblance to the literature in some aspects, and differ from the literature in some aspects
Life balance and traumatic txperiences in undergraduate students living near conflict zones
This study aimed to examine the prevalence of PTSD among undergraduate students and how PTSD affected life balance of undergraduate students who live close to conflict zones. The participants of the study were 253 undergraduate students who lived close to conflict zone and witnessed or experienced bombing or war conflicts. Data collection instruments were Juhnke-Balkin Life Balance Inventory- Turkish Form and Turkish Version of the PTSD Checklist for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fifth Edition. The data were collected in paper-pencil format one month after bombing by terrorists across the border. Structural equation modeling was used in data analysis. The results indicated that PTSD symptomatology positively affects the students’ depression and sleep disturbance levels. However, PTSD symptomatology negatively affects global health and positive orientation. All effect sizes were in small to large range. We suggest that administrators should invest counseling services and have practioners providing help especially for undergraduate students in conflict zones; and to make families familiar with PTSD symptoms. © 2020, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature
Genetic diversity and population structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolated from Turkish sourdough by iPBS-retrotransposons markers
Molecular DNA markers are valuable tools for analyzing genetic variation among yeast from different populations to reveal the genetically different autochthonous strains. In this study, we employed inter-primer binding site (iPBS) retrotransposon polymorphism to assess the genetic variation and population structure of 96 Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates from four different regions in Turkey. The nine selected iPBS primers amplified 102 reproducible and scorable bands, of which 95.10% were polymorphic with an average of 10.78 polymorphic fragments per primer. The average polymorphism information content and the resolving power were 0.26–3.58, respectively. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed significant (P < 0.001) genetic differences within populations (88%) and between populations (12%). The unweighted pair group mean with arithmetic (UPGMA) dendrogram grouped 96 S. cerevisiae strains into two main clusters, where the highest probability of the data elucidating the population structure was obtained at ΔK = 2. There was not an obvious genetic discrimination of the populations according to geographical regions on UPGMA, supported by principal coordinate analysis. However, the individuals of the closer provinces in each population were more likely to group together or closely. The results indicate that iPBS polymorphism is a useful tool to reveal the genetically diverse autochthonous S. cerevisiae strains that may be important for the production of sourdough or baked goods
A retrospective analysis of thyroid lesions containing mature adipose tissue
Objectives: The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the lesions containing mature adipose tissues in surgical materials of the patients who underwent thyroidectomy operation owing to the diagnosis of nodular goiter.
Methods: A total of 2800 pathologic specimens of thyroidectomies stained with hematoxylin-eosin were collected between January 2010 and November 2013 in Recep Tayyip Erdogan University School of Medicine. Pathologic sections were selected from pathology archive and re-examined. Upon examination, we determined 10 lesions with mature adipose tissue within thyroid parenchyma.
Results: Thyroid lesions containing mature adipose tissue were observed in 10 (0.004 %) of 2800 thyroidectomy materials. Eight of the patients were female and two of them were male. Minimum, maximum and median age of the patients were found to be 31, 74 and 52 years respectively. All of the cases had underwent a bilateral total thyroidectomy operation. In macroscopic examination of the only one cases, a homogenous yellow-gray color was observed. In other cases a large number of colloid-rich nodules of various sizes were observed. On microscopic examination, five adipose tissues in the nodules (adenolipoma-thyrolipoma), four scattered foci of mature adipose tissues (heterotopic adiposis) and one diffuse infiltrating mature adipose tissue on entire thyroid gland (diffuse thyrolipomatosis) were determined among mature adipose tissue containing lesions. A follicular variant of papillary microcarcinoma was found in two of thyrolipoma cases.
Conclusion: Nodular thyroid lesions containing mature adipose tissue, as a result of particularly on the outer surface of the gland and parathyroid glands containining mature adipose tissue may mimic parathyroid gland lesion. Therefore, to prevent from inappropriate treatments, pathologists should be aware of these kinds of lesions, especially when they are investigating the lesions of parathyroid glands during an intraoperative consultation

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether insulin deficiency and increased catabolism may have a role in the regulation of plasma glucagon−like peptide (GLP)−1 and GLP−2 levels in children with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and whether insulin treatment may affect the levels of these polypeptides
DP600 ve HSLA300 Sac Malzemelerde Geri Esneme Davranışlarına Proses Parametrelerinin Etkisinin Deneysel Araştırılması
Bu çalışmada sac metal malzemelerin
oda sıcaklığında bükülerek şekillendirilmesi sonrası gözlenen ve
şekillendirmede istenmeyen bir durum olan geri esneme davranışı deneysel olarak
araştırılmıştır. Çalışmada DP600 ve HSLA300 sac malzemeler farklı kalıp açılarında
ve ütüleme sürelerinde V bükme yöntemiyle şekillendirilmiştir. Çalışma sonunda
ütüleme süresinin 10 saniye artmasıyla elastik gerilmelerin kalıcı gerilmelere
dönüşmesinden dolayı geri esneme açısının DP600 sac malzemede ortalama %14,8,
HSLA sac malzemede ise ortalama %9,7 azaldığı tespit edilmiştir. Kalıp açısının
artmasıyla elastik gerilim miktarının da artmasından dolayı her iki malzemede
de esneme açısının arttığı, açının büyümesiyle de elastik gerilmelerin dar bir
alanda hapsolmasından dolayı da esnemenin daha sonra azaldığı belirlenmiştir.
DP600 sac malzemede 15 derece kalıp açısından 45 derece kalıp açısına kadar
esnemenin ortalama %15,2 arttığı, 45 dereceden sonra ise %27,6 azaldığı tespit
edilmiştir. HSLA sac malzemede ise 15 derece kalıp açısından 30 derece kalıp
açısına kadar esnemenin önce ortalama %10,4 arttığı, 30 dereceden sonra ise
%26,4 azaldığı gözlenmiştir. Ayrıca DP600 sac malzemenin sertliğinin HSLA sac
malzemeden daha yüksek olmasından dolayı oluşan geri esneme değerinin HSLA sac malzemeye
göre %12,3 daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir
