Türkiye’de Sosyal Harcamaların Gelir Eşitsizliği ve Ekonomik Büyüme Üzerindeki Etkisi: Fourier ADL Eşbütünleşme Analizi / The Impact of Social Expenditures on Income Inequality and Economic Growth in Türkiye: Fourier ADL Cointegration Analysis
Sosyal politikanın önemli araçlarından biri olan sosyal harcamaların gelir dağılımı üzerindeki olumlu etkisi çok fazla tartışma konusu olmazken, bu harcamaların ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkisi literatürde geniş bir tartışma alanı oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı; Türkiye’deki sosyal harcamalar ile gelir dağılımı ve ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkiyi ortaya koymaktır. Sosyal harcamaların ekonomik büyüme ve gelir dağılımı üzerindeki etkisi sırasıyla 1980-2019 ve 1987-2019 dönemleri için Fourier ADL eşbütünleşme testi ile belirlenmiştir. Fourier ADL eşbütünleşme testi sonuçları eşbütünleşme ilişkisini ortaya koymuştur. FMOLS tahminleri, sosyal harcamaların ekonomik büyüme ve gelir dağılımı üzerindeki etkilerinin olumlu olduğunu göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, çalışma Türkiye’de kamu politika yapıcılarına sosyal harcamaları artırmayı önermektedir
The Van Tušpa excavations 2015-2016
The Tušpa/Van Fortress, the capital of Urartu, is located on the eastern shore of Lake Van. In 2015 and 2016, our excavations focused mainly on three different areas: The Mound, the old City of Van, and Sardur’s Burg. The Mound in its north, extending in the same direction as the old city of Van to the south, covers an area roughly of 46 hectares and has a settlement history sprawling from the Early Bronze Age up to the beginning of 20th century (Fig. 1). The Mound excavations were conducted ..
Osteoporoz Hakkındaki Türkçe Videolarda Hangi Bilgiler Verilmektedir ve YouTube Güvenilir ve Kaliteli Bilgiler Sağlıyor mu: YouTube Videolarının Sistematik Bir Analizi
Objective: This study aims to evaluate what information is given in Turkish videos about osteoporosis on YouTube and to determine the quality and reliability of the videos. Materials and Methods: The first 50 Turkish videos about osteoporosis on YouTube were evaluated in terms of quality, reliability, and information level. Two searches were conducted for related content on YouTube and two orthopedics surgeons evaluated the videos simultaneously. The Global Quality score (GQS) (1-5) and DISCERN (15-75) scoring systems were used to assess the quality of the video content. With the Osteoporosis Specific scale (1-29), it was questioned what information specifically about osteoporosis was given in the videos while the accuracy of the video source information was evaluated with the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) score (1-4). Descriptive data regarding the number of views, comments, likes, dislikes were recorded, as well as the upload date to YouTube and the duration of the videos. The popularity of videos was evaluated with the video power index. Results: Considering the messages given in the videos, the most frequent information was “decrease in bone mass” with 41 videos. This was followed by “osteoporosis is a risk of fracture” and “there are risk factors for osteoporosis.” The Osteoporosis Specific score was low 8.92. The mean DISCERN score was 25.020 (15-75) and the mean GQS was 1.98 (0-5), indicating low quality. The JAMA score (1-4) for which the video source was questioned showed a low level of reliability of 1.66. Videos about osteoporosis prepared by people other than healthcare professionals were more popular (82.25 vs. 56.80) (cc=0.296, p=0.037). Conclusion: The content of the videos on YouTube osteoporosis is generally inadequate or inaccurate. Higher quality and informative videos based on international guidelines can contribute to patient compliance and increase public awareness of osteoporosis. ©Copyright 2022 by the Turkish Osteoporosis Society / Turkish Journal of Osteoporosis published by Galenos Publishing House
Determinating of heating amounts of greenhouses at Balikesir climatic conditions
Seralar bitkilerin yetişme periyodunda uygun iklim şartlarını optimum düzeyde sağlayan kontrollü yetiştirme ortamlarıdır. Soğuk gün ve gecelerde sera içerisinde bitkiler için uygun sıcaklık değerlerinin oluşturulması seraların ısıtılması ile mümkündür. Bu çalışmada, Balıkesir ilindeki mevcut bir seranın ve yöreye uygun sera modellerinin ısı gereksinimleri hesaplanmış, hesaplanan ısı gereksinimlerini karşılayacak farklı yakıt miktarları ve maliyetleri belirlenmiş ve yöreye uygun sera modelinin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla yaygın olarak kullanılan üç farklı sera örtü malzemesi seçilmiş ve sera iç sıcaklığının 10°C ve 20°C de tutulması için gerekli ısı gereksinimleri ve yakıt giderleri hesaplanmıştır. Hesaplamalar sonucunda çift katlı (PE) plastik örtü malzemesi kullanılması halinde seralarda ısı ihtiyacının en az olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Seraları ısıtmak amacıyla yerli linyit kömürü ve ithal Sibirya kömürünün yakıt olarak tercih edilmesi durumunda daha ekonomik bir yetiştiriciliğin yapılabileceği ortaya konulmuştur.The greenhouses are controlled growing environments to establish a suitable climatologic condition for the plants during growing period. It is necessary to heat up the greenhouses to ensure appropriate temperature for the plants, when the cold periods occur. In this study, the heating requirements were calculated for a certain greenhouse in Balıkesir and appropriate greenhouse models. Additionally, quantities and costs of different heating source were determined for those greenhouses. For this aim, three different types of cover materials were selected, and the heating requirement and the cost were computed assuming the inside temperatures were 10 and 20°C. According to these calculations, double-layered plastics cover (PE) was the most suitable, in order to minimize the heating requirement. Since, the region climate is suitable for greenhouse proowetion, lignite coal and Siberia coal were suggested for the heating

Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis mimicking iron deficiency anemia: a delayed diagnosis?
Idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis (IPH) is an uncommon chronic disorder in children. It is characterized by recurrent pulmonary hemorrhage and may result in hemoptysis and pulmonary insufficiency. The most common hematologic manifestation of IPH is iron deficiency anemia. The etiology of IPH is not known and its diagnosis may be difficult due to the variable clinical courses. The most helpful signs for identifying IPH are iron deficiency anemia and recurrent or chronic cough, hemoptysis, dyspnea, wheezing. We report here 5 pediatric cases of IPH presenting with iron deficiency anemia and without pulmonary symptoms. Mean corpuscular volume was low in all patients; iron was low in 4 out of 5 cases; total iron binding capacity was high in all of them; ferritin was low in 3 patients. At follow up, none of them had responded successfully to the iron therapy. Although they didn’t present with pulmonary symptoms, chest radiographs incidentally revealed diffuse reticulonoduler shadows in all of them. Computed tomography revealed diffuse ground-glass opacities, consolidation, increased density. The diagnosis was confirmed by the detection of hemosiderinladen macrophages in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and gastric aspirate. If patients with iron deficiency anemia don’t respond to iron therapy, they should be examined for IPH. Chest radiographs should be taken even in absence of pulmonary symptoms. Early diagnosis is important for a timely management of IPH
Seasonal variation and pathology associated with helminthes infecting two serranids (Teleostei) of Iskenderun Bay (Northeast Mediterranean Sea), Turkey
This study presents a detailed record of the philometrid nematodt, Philometm lateolabmcis (Nematoda: Philometridae) and trypanorhynch pleurocercoid, Grillotia sp. (Cestoda: Trypanorhynchia) in white grouper, Epinephelus aeneus, and dusky grouper, E. marginatus, from iskenderun Bay, Turkey, during 2000-2003. A total of 885 (418 white and 467 dusky grouper) serranids were sampled during the research period. Of these fish, 130 (31.1%) white and 118 (25.3%) dusky groupers were found infected with helminthes. In order to estimate the influences of helminthic infestation on fish growth, the length-weight relationship was determined. Trypanorhynch cestodes larvae were collected only from the external mesenteries of the internal organs, whereas philometrid nematodes were found in the ovary of the infected fish. Severe pathologic changes were detected in the ovary tissues of white groupers infected with P. lateolabracis.This study presents a detailed record of the philometrid nematodt, Philometm lateolabmcis (Nematoda: Philometridae) and trypanorhynch pleurocercoid, Grillotia sp.

Mültecilerin Türkiye’deki kaçak elektrik kullanımına etkileri: Türkiyedeki Suriyeli göçmen analizi
Electricity is necessity for daily needs in today’s condition and it has gained so much importance. Accordingly, illegal electricity consumption is a crucial situation in both developing and developed countries and this thesis aims to find the relationship between immigration and illegal electricity consumption. In this study, we use panel data and difference in differences estimation methods. Due to the fact that Turkey has random immigration influx and the majority of immigrants’ population in Turkey consists of Syrian immigrants, we take Syrian immigrants in Turkey as a case study. We use data of electricity theft and loss rate of 27 provinces and their socio-economic data for the period of 2009 -2016. Using the panel data fixed effects and difference in differences methods we mainly find that immigrant influx has an important impact on illegal electricity consumption. Moreover, unemployment rate, privatization, population density and amount of agricultural land have significant effects on illegal electricity consumption in our models.Elektrik, günümüz koşullarında günlük ihtiyaçların bir gereğidir ve çok fazla önem kazanmıştır.
