    The effects of nitrogen fertilization on protein content, yield and nitrogen physiological efficiency (NUE), nitrogen uptake efficiency (NupE) and nitrogen agronomic efficiency (NutE) of grain for eight wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes (Gerek 79, Bezostaja 1, Altay 2000, Bayraktar 2000, Kate A-1, İzgi 2001, Sönmez 2001 and Karahan 99) were elavuated over a N application range of 0-8 kg N da-1 , on N-deficient soil in Central Anatolian Region during two growing periods (2007/08, 2008/09). N fertilization increased grain yield and grain protein concentration of all genotypes in two years. In both years of the study increasing levels of nitrogen applied in different bread wheat varieties effects on grain yield, protein content, NUE, NupE and NutE was found statistically significant. In the first year of experiment, average nitrogen use efficiency of bread wheat varieties are analyzed and determined the highest physiological efficiency of nitrogen is Kate A-1 (47.4) bread wheat variety, nitrogen agronomic efficiency and nitrogen uptake efficiency were identified highest in İzgi 2001 (14.7 and 0.33) bread wheat variety. In addition, ın the second year of experiment, on average nitrogen use efficiency of bread wheat varieties are analyzed, determined highest physiological efficiency of nitrogen is Bayraktar 2000 (50.5) bread wheat variety, nitrogen agronomic efficiency and nitrogen uptake efficiency were identified highest in Kate A–1 (15.9 and 0.33) bread wheat variety. During investigated growing years NUE was decreased with increasing nitrogen fertilization

    This study was carried out to determine the effects of potassium (0, 60, 120 and 180 kg K2O ha(-1); K2SO4; 50% K2O) and zinc (0 and 30 kg ZnSO4 center dot 7H(2)O ha(-1); ZS; 22% Zn) applied on plant height, main head weight, numbers of head, concentrations of potassium and zinc in leaves and yield of early artichoke variety in Turkmen Village trial area of Agricultural Research Institute of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus during 2018-2019 artichoke growing period. According to the results, plant height increased 6.64% (60 kg K2O ha(-1) + 30 kg ZS ha(-1); 90.8 cm) compared to the control (85.3 cm) and 19.9% (120 kg K2O ha(-1) + 30 kg ZS ha(-1); 90.8 cm). Although the main head weight of the plant and the number of head per plant increased depending on the applications, an increasing was determined compared to the control. While the potassium concentrations of leaves increased between 5% and 65% compared to the control (0.44%), zinc concentrations increased by 9% compared to the control with only ZS application. The highest yield (89.720 kg ha(-1)) was obtained by '180 kg K2O ha(-1) + 30 kg ZS ha(-1)' treatment. With this application, the yield increased by 40.9% compared to the control. If the artichoke plant will be grown under similar soil and climatic conditions, '180 kg K2O ha(-1) + 30 kg ZS ha(-1) kg' may be recommended because it increased the properties examined

    Do we know properly young age breast cancer patients: a double centre study

    No full text
    Background: According to American Cancer Society, an estimated 268,600 new cases of invasive breast cancer was diagnosed among women, and nearly 50,000 women were under age 50 years. Therefore, the identification of young age breast cancer patients can have a collosal impact on treatment, and medical follow-up. The present study aimed to understand the young age breast cancer pathophysiology and redound new BRCA variants to literature. Methodology: This was a double-centre study performed in the Medical Genetics Department of Kahramanmaras Necip Fazıl City Hospital. In this study, sixty female patients, who are under 45 years old, diagnosed with primer breast cancer in the oncology clinic of the same hospital and Kahramanmaraş Sutcu İmam University were included. The patients were selected for BRCA mutation testing based on NCCN Guideline Version 3.2019 BRCA1/2 Testing Criteria. Relatives who meet the same criteria from the same family were not included to prevent repetition. Patients with known other cancer syndromes were also excluded. Results: We found that Luminal-B type breast cancer was the most frequent subtype (p < 0.001), patients with Luminal-A subtype breast cancer had significantly smaller tumor size and smaller grade than those had other subtypes of breast cancer at diagnosis stage (p = 0.03 and p < 0.001, respectively). Regarding tumor localization, the breast carcinomas were mostly localized in the right breast (53.3%). Two patients (3.3%) had BRCA1 pathogenic mutation and five patients (8.3%) had BRCA2 pathogenic mutation. Additionally, we found two new variations in BRCA2 gene (c.478_488delGTATGTGGGAG and c.8830 A>T (rs4987047). All BRCA1/2 MLPA results were normal. Conclusion: The incidence of young age breast cancer varies among countries, and it is higher in developing countries. Understanding of young age breast cancer cases will be helpful to provide suitable treatment options and will help to reduce the death rate of these patients. [JBCGenetics 2021; 4(1.000): 35-41

    WOS: 000329012500022PubMed ID: 23693121Poor mobilization is an important problem in autologous stem cell transplantation. We retrospectively reviewed the data of 165 mobilized patients to identify possible risk factors for a poor stem cell mobilization. 27 patients (16.4%) were categorized as poorly mobilized. The poor mobilization ratio differed according to diagnosis (lymphoma: 25.4%, acute leukemia: 15.4%, amyloidosis: 14.3%, and multiple myeloma: 9.6%). Being diagnosed as lymphoma (odds ratio [OR] = 6.02, p = 0.001), advanced age (OR = 1.05, p = 0.007) and increased weight (OR = 1.03, p = 0.03) were found as possible risk factors. Being diagnosed as lymphoma was shown to be the most important risk factor for a poor mobilization. Leukapheresis staff should be aware of the increased risk of a poor mobilization in lymphoma patients and remobilization methods should be considered from the beginning. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

    THE EFFECT OF APPLICATION OF LOCAL OXIDISED CELLULOSE POWDER ON HEMOSTASIS TIME IN A RAT MODEL WITH FEMORAL ARTERY BLEEDING

    No full text
    Aims: Whether pre-hospital area or emergency department, the early diagnosis and control of bleeding is the first critical step in the treatment of trauma patients. This becomes increasingly critical as the victim-to-medical-personnel or equipment ratio becomes higher (disasters, wars and/or mass casualty events e.g.). We purposed to investigate the hemostatic effect of application of local oxidised cellulose powder on time to hemostasis time in a rat model with severe femoral artery bleeding

    The aim of the present study was to demonstrate the possible transplacental transmission of 131I labeled recombinant human erythropoietin ( 131I-rh-EPO) in pregnant rats and its distribution through maternal and fetal organs. Six Wistar Albino Rats in their pregnancy of 18 days were used 131I labeled recombinant human erythropoietin (specific activity = 2.4 µCi/IU) was injected into the tail vein of rats. After 30 minutes labeled erythropoietin infusion maternal stomach, kidney, lung, liver, brain and heart as well as fetus were removed. Then, the same organs were removed from each fetus. Measuring weight of maternal and fetal organs as well as placenta were followed by radioactivity count via Cd(Te) detector. 131I labeled recombinant human erythropoietin was found to be able to pass rat placenta and its distribution order in fetal organs was similar to those of maternal organs. Besides, as measurements were performed closer to cornu uteri, uptakes were decreasing in every fetus and its corresponding placenta. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc
