Over seröz kistadenomu duvarında ektopik adrenal

Ektopik adrenal çocuklarda nispeten sık görülen bir durumdur. En sık lokalizasyon erkek genital sistemi, özellikle de spermatik korddur. Kadın genital sistemi de ektopik adrenal dokusunun sık görüldüğü bir bölgedir, ancak over lokalizasyonu çok nadirdir. Yirmi bir yaşında kadın hasta karında şişlik, pelvik ağrı ve menstrüasyon düzensizliği nedeniyle başvurdu. Ultrasonografide sol ovarian bölgede 25 cm çaplı kistik kitle saptandı. Ameliyatla çıkartılan kist seröz sıvıyla doluydu ve duvarında 0.2 cm çapta sarı renkte nodül görüldü. Mikroskobik bakıda kist iç yüzü seröz kübik epitelle döşeliydi. Kist duvarındaki nodül ise iyi sınırlıydı ve adrenal dokudan oluşuyordu. Patolojik tanı, seröz kistadenom ve ektopik adrenal doku olarak geldi.Ectopic adrenal tissue is a relatively common finding, especially in children. The most common localization is the male genital system, especially the spermatic cord. Female genital tract is also a common site for ectopic adrenal tissue but, ovarian localization is very rare. A 21-year-old woman presented with complaints of abdominal swelling, pelvic pain and menstrual irregularity. Ultrasonographic examination revealed a 25 cm cystic mass in the left ovarian region. The cyst which was removed surgically, was filled with serous fluid and there was a 0.2 cm yellowish nodule within the wall. Serous cubic epithelium was lining the inner portion of the cyst. The nodule within the cyst wall was well defined and consisted of adrenal tissue

Effects of humidity level and IBA dose application on the softwood top cuttings of white mulberry (Morus alba L.) and black mulberry (Morus nigra L.) types

In this research, the effects of 85-90% relative humidity and ındol-3-butyric acid (IBA) doses on softwood top cuttings of two black mulberry (Types 1 and 2) and one white mulberry (Type 3) types were studied. Cuttings were taken from early June (14 Haziran) and applied to the different IBA doses (0, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 ppm). Cuttings were planted in pumice medium under misting system in the greenhouse for 48 days in order to root. The highest rooting percentage was determined from Type 1 (black mulberry) in 2000 and 3000 ppm IBA doses application (100%). The lowest one was control group from Type 2 (black mulberry) which was not rooted. Acording to increase liveliness of the cuttings, rooting percentage increased. Nearly all of the living cuttings were rooted. The highest ratio of cutting callus formation was found to be 2000 and 3000 ppm IBA doses (100%) from Type 1; the lowest one was determined control group of Types 2 and 3 (0.00%). The highest rooting area lenght was found from Type 3 (2.00 cm) and Type 1 (1.92 cm); the lowest one was control group of Type 2 (0.00 cm). With respect to root numbers, the highest value was found from Type 3 (21.73 number/cutting) and Type1 (16.42 number/cutting); the lowest one was control group of Type 2 (0.00 number/cutting). The longest root was determined from 3000 ppm IBA dose of Type 1 (11.23 cm); the highest root branching value was found from Type 3 in 3000 ppm IBA dose (16.20 number/cutting) application

Unbounded p-Convergence in Lattice-Normed Vector Lattices

A net xα in a lattice-normed vector lattice (X, p, E) is unbounded p-convergent to x ∈ X if p(| xα− x| ∧ u) → o 0 for every u ∈ X+. This convergence has been investigated recently for (X, p, E) = (X, |·|, X) under the name of uo-convergence, for (X, p, E) = (X, ‖·‖, ℝ) under the name of un-convergence, and also for (X, p, ℝX ′) , where p(x)[f]:= |f|(|x|), under the name uaw-convergence. In this paper we study general properties of the unbounded p-convergence.Article Pre-prin

Fonksiyonel Kademelendirilmiş Sandviç Plakaların Balistik Darbe Yükü Altındaki Davranışı Üzerinde Farklı Seramik Bileşenlerinin

Konferans Bildirisi -- Teorik ve Uygulamalı Mekanik Türk Milli Komitesi, 2015Conference Paper -- Theoretical and Applied Mechanical Turkish National Committee, 2015Günümüzde de gelişen tehditler karşısında daha etkin balistik koruma sağlayacak hafif ve yüksek performanslı zırhların geliştirilmesi kritik bir ihtiyaç haline gelmiş ve bu sahadaki yeni malzeme arayışları seramik ön yüzlü kompozit zırhları ön plana çıkarmıştır. Katmanlı yapıya sahip bu plakalar yüksek mukavemetleri ve yüksek rijitlikleri nedeniyle balistik sistemlerde yaygın olarak kullanılırlar. Ancak, katmanlardaki malzeme özelliklerinin ani olarak değişmesi nedeniyle ara yüzeylerde yüksek gerilmeler meydana gelir ve bu gerilmeler de katmanlar arasında ayrılmalara (delaminasyon) neden olur. Bu olumsuz etkiler fonksiyonel kademelendirilmiş malzemeler (FGM) kullanılarak azaltılabilir ya da ortadan kaldırılabilir. Bu çalışma ile farklı seramik bileşenlere sahip fonksiyonel kademelendirilmiş sandviç plakalarda balistik darbe yükleme altında meydana gelen hasar mekanizmaları ve deformasyonları deneysel olarak incelenmiştir.Today, the development of high-performance and light armors has become a critical requirement against emerging threats. The research for new materials in this field has brought ceramic-faced composite armors to the forefront. Layered composite structures are widely used in ballistic systems due to their high strength and high stiffness. An abrupt change in their material properties across an interface between discrete materials introduces large interlaminar stresses that could cause delamination. One way to overcome this adverse effect is to use a functionally graded material (FGM). The purpose of this study is to determine damage and deformation mechanisms of functionally graded sandwich plates, which have different ceramic components, under ballistic impact loads

Capital Fixity and Mobility in Response to the 2008-09 Crisis: Variegated Neoliberalism in Mexico and Turkey

The article examines the 2008-9 crisis responses in Mexico and Turkey as examples of variegated neoliberalism. The simultaneous interests of corporations and banks relative to the national fixing of capital and their mobility in the form of global investment heavily influenced each state authority’s policy responses to the crisis at the expense of the interests of the poor, workers, and peasantry. Rather than pitching this as either evidence of persistent national differentiation or some Keynesian state resurgence, we argue from a historical materialist geographical framework that the responses of capital and state authorities in Mexico and Turkey actively constitute and reconstitute the global parameters of market regulatory design and neoliberal class rule through each state’s distinct domestic policy formation and crisis management processes. While differing in specific content the form of Mexico and Turkey’s state responses to the crisis ensured continuity in their foregoing neoliberal strategies of development and capital accumulation, most notably in the continued oppression of workers. That is, the prevailing strategy of accumulation continues to be variegated neoliberalism

Innovative and sustainable use of stream water to suppress fires in protected areas: overview of the streams-2-suppress-fires project

Establishing protected areas to maintain biodiversity is a priority worldwide. Protected areas can have minimal management practices that can lead to the intensive accumulation of fire fuel. Fires are major threats for all protected areas that cause irreversible damages to them or impacts that last for decades or even centuries. The impending climate change impacts will increase the potential of large fires even in regions with minimal fires in the past. The emphasis of this project is in the Black Sea region with six pilot areas in six different countries. The first action involves the establishment of a Neighborhood Network regarding fire suppression around the region. The network includes institutions that are responsible for mitigating forest fires and managing protected areas from the Black Sea region. Another important action taken is to understand the fire behavior and locating the areas with the greatest fire risk. When considering fire suppression it is essential to know the available water resources (stream water). Since fires occur during the summer, the runoff and stream flow during this period needs to be accurately predicted. Based on the fire behavior and water resources data, the number, dimensions of the reservoirs required to suppress forest fires will be estimated for the pilot areas. Finally, specialized software will provide the optimal locations of the reservoirs and the best routes for the fire vehicles to reach the reservoirs. Overall the use of innovative mechanisms will lead to the more cost-effective management that will allow the sustainable development and protection of natural protected areas

ISRM Suggested Method for Determining the Abrasivity of Rock by the CERCHAR Abrasivity Test

Rock abrasivity plays an important role in characterizing a rock material for excavation purposes. Abrasion can be defined as the wearing or tearing away of particles from the surface, i.e. it is a process causing removal or displacement of material at a solid surface, which will lead to wear, especially on tools that are used in mining, drilling, and tunneling applications. The CERCHAR Abrasivity Test is a method to determine an index called CERCHAR Abrasivity Index (CAI) for the rock's abrasivity. The test was originally developed by the Laboratoire du Centre d'Etudes et Recherches des Charbonnages (CERCHAR) de France for coal mining applications (Cerchar 1986). Two standards exist for this test method: the French standard AFNOR NF P 94-430-1 (2000) and ASTM D7625-10 (2010). The test is widely used in research and practice. There are essentially two designs of testing apparatus: the original design as developed at the CERCHAR Centre (Valantin 1973) and a modified design as reported by West (1989). While the designs are similar there are some important differences as well as ambiguities in test conditions that include equipment actuation, material properties of the stylus and sample preparation as summarized by Plinninger et al.
