Fans at home and away: Supporters traveling with their soccer teams

The aim of the research is to understand in depth the behaviors of soccer fans for travel planning process and their travel experiences’. Its main objectives are to identify; fans’ travel arrangements, tourist expenditures, visit and re-visit intentions to the event venue or main destination. The research is designed as qualitative study and it employs semi-structured interview methods as its data gathering tool. 14 interviews were held at the event venue before the UEFA Europa League soccer match between Manchester United FC™ and Fenerbahce FC™. The findings reveal that sporting events is the primary reason to go any destination for soccer fans. The main features of the destinations have the second significance. However, the name of the destinations has a big role on re-visit intentions of event-goers. According to the results, soccer fans are tend to organize their trips with team associations

Ultrafine conducting fibers: metallization of poly(acrylonitrile-co-glycidyl methacrylate) nanofibers

Electrospun poly(glycidylmethacrylate) (PGMA) and poly(acrylonitrile-co-glycidyl methacrylate) (P(AN-GMA)) nanofibers were coated with monodisperse silver nanoparticles by using an electroless plating technique at ambient conditions. Oxirane groups on the surface of nanofibers were replaced with reducing agent, hydrazine. Surface modified nanofibers were allowed to react with ammonia solution of AgNO3. A redox reaction takes place and metallic silver nucleate on fibers surface. Parameters affecting the particle size were determined

Adolescent pregnancy in West Turkey. Cross sectional survey of married adolescents

Objectives: The purpose of this research was to determine both the fertility characteristics of married adolescent women in Denizli province center and the adolescent pregnancy rate and also some factors that could occur with adolescent pregnancy. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the Denizli province center in the year 2001. According to the Turkish Demographic Health Survey 1998 statistics, the percentage of married adolescents between 15-19 years of age who have begun to give birth is 9.3-10.2%. The sample size of 3471 was determined using EPI INFO software. To reach this sample size, 5 of the 25 health clinics in Denizli province center were chosen by simple random sampling method. Results: Approximately 6.4% of the adolescents were married, 4.9% had been pregnant as an adolescent, 4.8% had delivered a baby, 23.3% of the married adolescents had never been pregnant, 23.3% were pregnant with their first child, and 51.2% were mothers; 76.7% had been pregnant one or more times. The majority of the married adolescent women in the research group (57.2%) do not use any method of family planning, followed by 15.7% who use an intrauterine device. Age, lower degree of education (less than 8 years) and unemployment were identified as risk factors for adolescent pregnancy. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that although the frequency of adolescent pregnancy in the region is lower than the mean value in Turkey, it is higher compared with other countries. Age, education <8 years and unemployment are risk factors for adolescent pregnancy

Acute kidney injury following supine mini-PNL versus retrograde intrarenal surgery in patients with renal stones < 3 cm: a prospective comparative study

Background: The purpose of the current study was to prospectively compare mini-PNL and RIRS for development of acute kidney injury (AKI), success, and complication rates in a cohort of patients with kidney stones less than 3 cm. Methods: In this prospective study, data of 60 consecutive patients underwent mini-PNL (n=31) or RIRS (n=29) was investigated. Urinary NGAL levels were measured preoperatively and at postoperative 6th hour to evaluate AKI. Success and complication rates were also compared. Results: The mean stone size was signifcantly higher in the mini-PNL group (24.6 mm vs. 18.2 mm, p=0.02). The mean postoperative NGAL levels were 45.6±12.4 and 48.1±13.6 for the mini-PNL and RIRS groups, respectively. The increase was statistically signifcant for both groups (p: 0.01). The diference between the two groups for mean postoperative NGAL measurements was not statistically signifcant (p=0.47). The SFR was signifcantly higher in the miniPNL group (96.7% vs. 79.3%, p=0.04). The complication rates were similar for the two groups (p=0.99). The mean duration of operation was 48.2±22.5 min in the mini-PNL group and 62.6±18.1 min in the RIRS group (p=0.03). The median duration of hospitalization was 1 day for both groups. Conclusions: In patients with renal stones<3 cm in diameter, mini-PNL in supine position provides higher SFR and shorter operative times with similar rates of complications and AKI when compared with RIRS. Mini-PNL should be considered as the primary treatment option together with RIRS for renal stones and should not be ruled out for being a more invasive option

Krizin kısa dönemli yansımalarının turizm i̇şletmelerinin kriz yönetimi uygulamalarına etkisi

Bu araştırma; Türkiye’de son dönemde yaşanan terör olayları ve Rusya ile yaşanan siyasi gerilim sonrasında ortaya çıkan krizin kısa dönemli olumsuz yansımalarının turizm işletmelerinin kriz yönetimi uygulamaları üzerindeki etkisini tespit etmek ve bu etkilerin işletmelerin faaliyet yıllarına göre farklılık gösterip göstermediğini belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma verileri, Travel Turkey Izmir’2016 10. Turizm Fuar ve Kongresi’ne katılan ve turizm sektöründe faaliyet gösteren (otel, seyahat acentesi, havayolu firması ve diğer turizm işletmeleri) işletme temsilci ve yöneticilerinden anket formu aracılığıyla toplanmıştır. Araştırmada, toplamda 219 kullanılabilir anket elde edilmiştir. Araştırma verilerine tanımlayıcı istatistikler, paralel test, açıklayıcı faktör analizi ve MANCOVA (Çoklu Kovaryans Analizi) uygulanmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda, krizin kısa dönemli olumsuz yansımalarının turizm işletmelerinin kriz yönetimi uygulamaları üzerinde oldukça büyük bir etkisi olduğu ancak bu etkilerin işletmelerin faaliyet yıllarına göre farklılık göstermediği tespit edilmiştir

N′-[(2Z)-3-Allyl-4-oxo-1,3-thia­zolidin-2-yl­idene]-5-fluoro-3-phenyl-1H-indole-2-carbohydrazide

In the title compound, C21H17FN4O2S, the planar indole fused-ring [maximum deviation 0.009 (1) Å] makes dihedral angles of 54.75 (9) and 14.90 (9)°, respectively, with the phenyl ring and the dihydro­thia­zolyl ring. The –CH2CH=CH2 substituent is disordered over two positions in a 0.51 (1):0.49 (1) ratio. An intra­molecular N—H⋯S hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring motif. The two independent mol­ecules are linked into a dimer by two N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming an R 2 2(10) ring motif. The crystal structure features inter­molecular C—H⋯π and π–π stacking [centroid–centroid distance = 3.679 (1) Å] inter­actions. C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F inter­actions are also present
