Trend Assessment by the Innovative-Şen Method
Hydro-meteorological time series may include trend components mostly due to
climate change since about three to four decades. Trend detection and identification in a better
and refined manner are among the major current research topics in water resources domain. Even
though different methodologies can be found for trend detection in literature, two well-known
procedures are the Mann-Kendall (MK) trend test and recently innovative-Şen trend method,
which provides different aspects of the trend. The theoretical basis and application of these two
methods are completely different. The MK test gives a holistic monotonic trend without any
categorization of the time series into a set of clusters, but the innovative-Şen method is based on
cluster and provides categorical trend behavior in a given time series. The main purpose of this
paper is to provide important differences between these two approaches and their possible
similarities. The applications of the two approaches are given for hydro-meteorological records
including relative humidity, temperature, precipitation and runoff from Ergene drainage basin in
the north-western part of Turkey. It is observed that although MK trend test does not show
significant trend almost in all the cases, the innovative-Şen approach yields trend categorizations
as Bvery low^, Blow^, Bmedium^ Bhigh^ and Bvery high^, which should be taken into consideration in future flood (Bvery high^) and drought (Bvery low^) studies

Clinical Features And Prognostic Factors Of Hodgkin'S Lymphoma: A Single Center Experience
Background: Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is a B cell lymphoma characterized by the presence of Reed-Sternberg cells. HL comprises 1% of all cancer cases and 14% of all lymphoma cases. Aims: We designed a retrospective study to investigate the clinical features and prognostic factors of HL patients diagnosed at an experienced oncology centre. Study Design: Retrospective study. Methods: Demographic characteristics, histopathological and clinical features, treatment modalities and response to treatment were obtained from hospital records. Dates of initial diagnosis, remission and relapse, last visit and death were recorded for survival analyses. Results: We analysed data of 391 HL patients (61% male, 39% female; mean age 35.7+/-15.1 years). The most common classical HL histological subtype was nodular sclerosing HL (NSHL) (42.7%). The most common stage was II 50.4%. The most common chemotherapy regimen was doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine and dacarbazine (ABVD) (70.6%). Five and 10-year survival rates were 90% and 84%, respectively. Early-stage patients with good prognostic factors had better overall and relapse-free survival rates. The presence of "B" symptoms, albumin level, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance score, and LDH were prognostic factors that affect the survival in both univariate and multivariate analyses. Conclusion: This is the first study that demonstrates the demographic, clinical and prognostic features of HL patients in Turkey, and provides a general picture of the HL patients in our country.WoSScopu
