ABSTRACT
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway involved in the production of the reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH). One of the most common inherited enzyme abnormalities is G6PD deficiency. G6PD enzyme deficiency facilitates human coronavirus infection due to glutathione (GSH) depletion. Depletion of glutathione due to blockage of the pentose phosphate pathway can hardly preserve the oxidative and anti-oxidative balance. GSH protects the body from the harmful effects of oxidative damage from excess reactive oxy ...Daha fazlası
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the importance level of the needs of family members according to the perceptions of family members and nurses, and the satisfaction level of these needs.

Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the side effects of Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA and Sinovac-CoronaVac vaccines administered in adults in Turkey. Material and Method: This is a cross-sectional study. The study sample consisted of 187 adults, 95 in the Pfizer-BioNTech group and 92 in the Sinovac-CoronaVac group, who came for vaccination. A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and a questionnaire were applied to vaccinated individuals in a hospital. They were asked about any adverse effects at 6, 12 and 24 hours post-vaccination. Results: The most common local adverse effect was pain at the inject ...Daha fazlası
Mobility is the basic need for functionality in human life. Physically disabled people often require mobility aids and wheelchairs are the most commonly preferred assistive mobility devices for enhancing independent functional mobility. Today, powered and manual wheelchair technology is available. Manual wheelchair propulsion necessitates more repetitive loading, but because the human body is not designed for such movement, musculoskeletal and functional issues such as pain and joint limitation may arise among manual wheelchair users. They require more support from their spine, arm, elbow, and ...Daha fazlası
INTRODUCTION:
The aim of this study was to test the null hypothesis that increased irregularity of the mandibular incisors is associated with a reduction in the alveolar support on cone-beam computed tomographic sections.
METHODS:
From a sample of 1100 digital volumetric tomographs, 125 tomographs of subjects with Class I malocclusion (mean age, 21.6 ± 4.8 years) were selected for this study. An irregularity index was used to categorize these tomographs as having mild, moderate, or severe crowding. All tomographs were taken by using an iCAT (Imaging Sciences International, Hatfield, Pa) ima ...Daha fazlası
Objective: In this study investigates the effect of the type and volume of solution used in inflation of the foley catheter balloon on the development of urine leakage around the catheter during indwelling urethral catheterization. Material and Method: This randomized controlled experimental study was conducted with 128 patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit and carried out between 2015 and 2019. In each study group, different types and volumes of the solution including 10 mL 0.9% sodium chloride, 15 mL 0.9% sodium chloride, 10 mL sterile distilled water, and 15 mL sterile distilled ...Daha fazlası
The study was performed between March 2009
and March 2010 at the Sinop Inner Harbor on cultured
mussels at the offshore submerged longline system. The
samples of mussels, sediment and suspended particulate
matter were seasonally taken for the purpose of monitoring
differences of metal contents. In addition, burnable organic
matter, contamination factors (CF), pollution load index
(PLI) in sediment samples, meat yield of mussels were
seasonally determined. All metals in suspended particulate
matter were found to be above the national limit. Cd
concentration in sediment was above the l ...Daha fazlası
This study investigated Holothuria tubulosa, Gmelin 1791 in the Dardanelles Strait from April 2013 to March 2014, in order
to outline the morphological characteristics, reproductive patterns and the relationship between population characteristics and
environmental parameters. 15 to 30 individuals of this species were sampled monthly at three stations. There was a negative allometry
between length and weight, with gutted weight being the most reliable measurement for this species. The reproductive
patterns of the species were identified for the first time for examples from the Turkish coast ...Daha fazlası
The aim of this prospective experimental study was to evaluate the effect of light-emitting diode (LED) photobiomodulation therapy (LPT) on the stability of immediately loaded miniscrews under different force levels, as assessed by resonance frequency analysis (RFA). Sixty titanium orthodontic miniscrews with a length of 8 mm and a diameter of 1.4 mm were implanted into cortical bone by closed flap technique in each proximal tibia of 15 New Zealand white adult male rabbits (n = 30). The animals were randomly divided into irradiated and control groups under different force levels (0, 150, and 3 ...Daha fazlası
