Influences of need for uniqueness, social media and social peer on consumption status in generation y and z consumers in Turkey: the mediating role of social exclusion
Consumers mostly prefer products with the same functionality to be used as an indicator of status and wealth.
It is essential to determine the motivations that drive consumers to status consumption. The purpose of this
study is to determine the consumption habits of customers in generations Y and Z. The perceived social
exclusion, uniqueness need, social peer influence, social media intensity, and status consumption of
'consumers' are researched for this purpose. With the use of the online survey approach, 158 valid replies were
acquired between the 12th and 23rd of January 2021. Data was collected using an through online survey with
six part of questionnaire. This research discovered that social exclusion and the need for uniqueness have a
strong significant impact on status consumption. Furthermore, social peer influence has been found to have a
considerable significant effect on consumption status and social exclusion. To summarize, this study's sample
consisted solely of Turkish customers. It would be beneficial to conduct a comparative research with other
countries. Second, all of the participants belonged to the Y and Z generations. Their ages ranged from 19 to
39 years old. There are five variables in the structural equation model. Future studies could include a wider
range of variables

Does Varicocele Repair Improve Conventional Semen Parameters? A Meta-Analytic Study of Before-After Data
Purpose: The purpose of this meta-analysis is to study the impact of varicocele repair in the largest cohort of infertile males with clinical varicocele by including all available studies, with no language restrictions, comparing intra-person conventional semen parameters before and after the repair of varicoceles.
Materials and methods: The meta-analysis was performed according to PRISMA-P and MOOSE guidelines. A systematic search was performed in Scopus, PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase databases. Eligible studies were selected according to the PICOS model (Population: infertile male patients with clinical varicocele; Intervention: varicocele repair; Comparison: intra-person before-after varicocele repair; Outcome: conventional semen parameters; Study type: randomized controlled trials [RCTs], observational and case-control studies).
Results: Out of 1,632 screened abstracts, 351 articles (23 RCTs, 292 observational, and 36 case-control studies) were included in the quantitative analysis. The before-and-after analysis showed significant improvements in all semen parameters after varicocele repair (except sperm vitality); semen volume: standardized mean difference (SMD) 0.203, 95% CI: 0.129-0.278; p<0.001; I²=83.62%, Egger's p=0.3329; sperm concentration: SMD 1.590, 95% CI: 1.474-1.706; p<0.001; I²=97.86%, Egger's p<0.0001; total sperm count: SMD 1.824, 95% CI: 1.526-2.121; p<0.001; I²=97.88%, Egger's p=0.0063; total motile sperm count: SMD 1.643, 95% CI: 1.318-1.968; p<0.001; I²=98.65%, Egger's p=0.0003; progressive sperm motility: SMD 1.845, 95% CI: 1.537%-2.153%; p<0.001; I²=98.97%, Egger's p<0.0001; total sperm motility: SMD 1.613, 95% CI 1.467%-1.759%; p<0.001; l2=97.98%, Egger's p<0.001; sperm morphology: SMD 1.066, 95% CI 0.992%-1.211%; p<0.001; I²=97.87%, Egger's p=0.1864.
Conclusions: The current meta-analysis is the largest to date using paired analysis on varicocele patients. In the current meta-analysis, almost all conventional semen parameters improved significantly following varicocele repair in infertile patients with clinical varicocele
