Cadastral services in Turkey within the framework of new public management
Central, national, political-managerial actors and the organization, processes and personnel structure of the public administration are changing within the framework of the new public management paradigm that envisages the superiority of private sector and private sector management techniques over the public sector. Restructuring of public management has been put on the agenda in 2000s in Turkey and various regulations have started to be established accordingly. In this process, new expansions have been made in the roles of the cadastre sector -which is considered to be a traditional public service- by bringing new legal and public regulations. The most significant step taken in this regard is the purchase of technical services from the private sector and handover of demand-oriented tasks (amalgamation, position determination, type variations etc.) conducted by the General Directorate of Land Registry and Cadastre (TKGM) to the licensed private measurement offices. Therefore, thanks to its reduced work load, TKGM uses all its facilities to establish a guiding, supervisory and spatial information system. This study analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of private-sector involvement in providing cadastral services in Turkey. Various options for the role of the private-sector are examined
Cost Benefit Analysis Of The Structures Designed For Alternative Seismic Hazard Levels
In this study, multiple performance objectives under the various earthquake hazard levels are investigated. In case of well defined earthquake hazard, as an alternative of classical earthquake resistant design principles, it is possible to design structures at different performances depending on structure's initial cost and economic life. In this study, costs of the structure with different performance levels are discussed.Current study is carried out on the reinforced concrete structures that are designed and analyzed for various seismic hazard levels. The aim is to determine, if the risk is released, whether the economic losses can be acceptable or not. In the study, cost of reinforced concrete ductile frames and dual systems that are designed for various seismic performances, are also compared for the economical aspects.To that end, in the first step 3, 5 and 8 storey frames and dual systems of several structures at Life Safety and Immediate Occupancy performance levels was designed for the earthquake hazards of 2% and 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years. The study reveals that if both direct and indirect effects of earthquake such as retrofitting costs, cost of temporary moving, temporary accommodation costs, cost of demolition and reconstructing the building, cost of damage to household goods and business disruption, social disturbance, are be taken into consideration, initial design performance level can be accepted as Immediate Occupancy performance level rather than Life Safety performance which is proposed current earthquake codes. The cost due to injuries and cost due to loss of lives are not included

Günümüzün ağa bağlı toplum yapısında ağlar, toplumu şekillendiren ve iletişim yapısını kökten değiştiren bir yapı içerisinde işlemektedir. Bu yapıda kurumsal iletişim biçimleri değişmiş, genişlemiş ve uygulanan stratejiler de yeniden yapılandırılmıştır. Günümüzde üniversiteler de kurumsal kültürün aktarılmasında ve şeffaflığın sağlanmasında sosyal medya ağlarında kurumsal iletişim faaliyetlerine önem vermektedir. Bu çalışma, dünyada ve Türkiye’de saygınlığı olan Oxford, Harvard, Koç ve Sabancı üniversitelerinin kurumsal iletişimde Twitter kullanımlarını sosyal ağ analizi yöntemiyle incelemiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, dünyanın en iyi üniversiteleri olarak kabul edilen Oxford ve Harvard üniversitelerinin Twitter’da kurumsal iletişime önem verdiği, Twitter’ı daha aktif ve interaktif bir şekilde kullandığı, bunun da takipçi ve etkileşim sayısına yansıdığı belirlenmiştir. Koç ve Sabancı üniversitelerinin ise Twitter kullanımının tekdüze olduğu, Twitter’ı daha çok diğer araçlar için üretilen içerikleri paylaşmak için kullandığı ve kullanıcılarla etkileşime geçmemeyi tercih ettiği belirlenmiştir.

Aortocaval Fistula in a Behcet's Disease Patient
Behcet's disease (BD) is a chronic, recurrent, systemic disease that is characterized by oral and genital ulcers and oculocutaneous inflammatory lesions. Cardiovascular involvement especially large artery involvement is a serious and vital complication of BD. Pseudoaneurysms in the major arteries may be the cause of sudden death in BD. In our case a pulsatile abdominal mass was determined to be an aortic pseudoaneurysm associated with BD and an aortocaval fistula. Here we report this case and a short review of literature because this is the first reported aortocaval fistula in a BD patient in English literature
Calcified fibrous pseudotumor with Castleman disease
Simultaneous calcified fibrous pseudotumor (CFT) and Castleman disease (CD) is an extremely rare association. CD is an uncommon lymphoproliferative disease that can arise in various sites of the body, while CFT is a rare type of benign fibrous lesion that frequently affects children and young adults, occurring as solitary or multiple lesions throughout the human body. Both entities are rare and exhibit typical and diverse histomorphological features. We report the case of a 15-year-old female patient, who, at the age of 13 had a biopsy performed at an external medical center; however, after 4 months the lesion had regrown. This lesion was removed with a surgical operation; however, it regrew 2 years later and was removed a third time. The results of the latter two biopsies were the same: CFT accompanying CD. The histologic examination of the excised lymph node and the surrounding tissue showed hyalinized fibrous tissue containing dystrophic and psammomatous calcification. In this case, the hyaline vascular type of CD was found to be intertwined with a CFT, which hampered the differentiation of whether both entities emerged within the lymph node or if the CFT developed from the soft tissue and then involved the lymph node. Future studies involving larger case series will provide a more precise insight, which should serve to resolve the current uncertaint

Diagnosis, treatment and prevention of infective endocarditis: Turkish consensus report-2019 [İnfektif endokarditin tanısı, tedavisi ve önlenmesi: Ulusal uzlaşı raporu-2019]
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a rare but still important as an infectious disease due to high rate of morbidity and substantial mortality. Although IE is not a notifiable disease in Turkey, and an incidence study has not been performed, the incidence may be higher than that in the developed countries due to frequent predisposing cardiac conditions and higher rates of nosocomial bacteremia, which may lead to IE in risk groups. IE generally affects the elderly in developed countries but it is frequently encountered among young individuals in Turkey. In order to reduce mortality and morbidity, it is critical to diagnose IE, to determine the causative agent, and to start treatment rapidly. Most patients cannot be diagnosed at the first visit, about half can be diagnosed after 3 months, and the disease often goes unnoticed. In patients diagnosed with IE, the rate of the identification of a causative organism is significantly lower in Turkey than that in developed countries. Some important microbiological diagnostic tests are not performed in most centers and several antimicrobials that are recommended as the first option for the treatment particularly antistaphylococcal penicillins, are unavailable in Turkey. These problems necessitate reviewing the epidemiological, laboratory, and clinical characteristics of IE in our country, as well as the current information about its diagnosis, treatment, and prevention together with local data. The diagnosis and treatment processes of IE should be standardized at every stage so that the management can be conducted in a setting in which physicians of various specialties are involved and is consistent with the current recommendations. The Study Group for Infective Endocarditis and Other Cardiovascular Infections of the Turkish Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases called for the collaboration of the relevant specialist organizations to establish a consensus report on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of IE in the context of current information and local data in Turkey. © 2020 Turkish Society of Cardiology
