    Primer saplanıcı baş ağrısı; saniyeler süren nadir ve şiddetli bir başağrısıdır. Ağrı özellikle trigeminal sinirin birinci dalı boyunca hissedilir ve günde bir veya birkaç günde bir gelen bir veya birkaç kez tekrarlayan saplanma atakları şeklinde ortaya çıkar. Primer saplanıcı başağrısı yıllardır bilinmekle birlikte tanı için klinisyenin sorgulaması gereklidir. Primer saplanıcı başağrısının tanısını koymada diğer olası nedenlerin dışlanması önemlidir. İndometazin klasik olarak ilk tedavi seçeneğidir ancak olguların %35'e yakını tedaviye direnç gösterir. Son yıllarda cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitörleri, gabapentin, nifedipine, parasetamol, ve melatonin tedavisinin etkinliğini destekleyen çalışmalar bildirilmektedir.Primary stabbing headache is an excruciating and relatively rare type of headache that typically lasts for only a few seconds. Pain is predominantly felt in the distribution of the first division of the trigeminal nerve and can be experienced as single stabs or as a series of stabs, either per day or every few days. Primary stabbing headache has been well-defined for decades and must be kept in mind during diagnosis. Exclusion of other possible causes is necessary in order to establish diagnosis. Indomethacin has classically been considered the first treatment option, but therapeutic failure occurs in up to 35% of cases. Recent studies have suggested that cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, gabapentin, nifedipine, paracetamol, and melatonin are also effective treatments

    Microangiopathy and m acroangiopathy are induced by increased the tendency of atherosclerosis caused by metabolic impairment. The prerevalance of diabetes mellitus is 15 - 33 % in cases with ischemic stroke. Diabetes mellitus is an independent risk factor especially for stroke an d it can increase the relative risk (RR) 1.8 - 6 times for initial stroke. The risk of ischemic stroke is higher in women with diabetes. Individual adjustment of glycemic targets is performed but treatment regulation as to set ≤ 7.0 % of HbA1C is recommended for decreasing the microvascular and macrovascular complications if the history of stroke or TIA are present. The targeted fasting plasma glucose levels should be ranged from 4.0 to 7.0 mmol/L and the targeted plasma glucose levels at postprandial second hour should be ranged from 5.0 to 10.0 mmol/L. Daily physial activity, weight control, blood pressure control, lipid control and life style changes are recommended to all diabetic patients. Also, medical treatment is commonly needed for targeted HbA1C levels. In diabetic patients, Metformin is an effective first - line pharmacotherapy to decrease the stroke risk. Also, monotherapy with fibrates can be considered. It is proposed to set the blood preassure at < 130/80 mmHg with AC EI or ARB hypertension treatments in diabetic patients. Diabetic adults with additionally risk factors should be treated with statins to decrease the risk of initial stroke. The benefit of antiagregant usage to decrease the stroke risk is not clear yet, ho wever aspirin usage can suitable in diabetic patients with increased cardiovascular event risk

    Recent developments in machine translation give hope for the possibility of communication without language barriers, as real-time interlingual conversations facilitated through automatic translation are already possible using free applications. This study aimed at measuring the level of intelligibility and accuracy of real-time chat messages translated instantly by translation bots embedded in GoogleTalk. The data consisted of chat scripts of a total of 12 sessions conducted between three pairs formed each of a native English- and Russian-speaker. The participants also answered a questionnaire about their chat experiences. The results suggest that even without any knowledge of the language of the other party, participants were able to conduct conversations on various topics without encountering any serious communication breakdown. About three fourth of the translated propositions were intelligible as well as accurate based on the human evaluation. Participants also reported positive comments on the effectiveness of this kind of interlingual communication, especially for informal chat.Les développements récents dans le domaine de traduction automatique laissent entrevoir la possibilité imminente d’une communication sans aucune barrière linguistique, les fonctions de traduction automatique fournies par des logiciels gratuits permettant déjà à des locuteurs de différentes langues d’entrer en conversation en temps réel. La présente recherche vise à mesurer le niveau d’intelligibilité et d’exactitude grammaticale des messages de clavardage traduits instantanément par des robots de traduction intégrés au logiciel de messagerie instantanée de Google : GoogleTalk. Cette étude se fonde sur un corpus de messages échangés pendant 12 séances de clavardage en temps réel entre trois paires de participants, chacune formée d’un locuteur natif anglais et d’un locuteur natif russe n’ayant aucune connaissance de la langue de l’autre partie. L’analyse des messages échangés et des questionnaires remplis par les participants montre que les participants ont pu maintenir la conversation sur des thèmes divers sans rupture de communication majeure. Environ les trois quarts des messages se sont révélés à la fois intelligibles et exacts selon l’évaluation effectuée par des humains. Les participants aussi ont formulé des commentaires positifs sur l’efficacité de cette forme de communication interlinguale, en particulier dans le cadre d’une expérience de clavardage informel

    WOS: 000433118700011OBJECTIVE: It has been shown that the physical activity of those with chronic illness is decreased. We aimed to evaluate the daily physical activities of hemodialysis (HD) patients with a pedometer. MATERIAL and METHODS: The study was conducted on 66 HD patients. Patients were given a pedometer and the number of steps were measured for 2 consecutive days; one HD day and one non-HD day. We compared the number of steps and clinical features of the patients. RESULTS: The average number of steps with a pedometer was 3426 +/- 3357 (278 - 14713) steps / two days. 62 (94%) patients took less than 5000 steps/per day. There was no significant correlation between the number of steps and HD duration, body mass index, interdialytic weight gain, serum phosphorus, albumin, and hemoglobin levels (p > 0.05). There was no difference in the number of steps between male and female patients (p > 0.05). However, as the age of the patients increased, the number of steps decreased (r = -0.43, p < 0.001). Patients with more steps had higher systolic blood pressure (r = 0.31, p = 0.01) and diastolic blood pressure (r = 0.39, p < 0.001). Patients with cardiovascular disease took fewer steps (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: A significant proportion of HD patients are sedentary. Elderly dialysis patients and those with cardiovascular disease have even less physical activity
