Multi-pollutant Monitoring in a Rehabilitated Estuary: Elements and Radionuclides Kilic, Onder Belivermis, Murat Sezer, Narin Kalayci, Gulsah Gozel, Furkan Istanbul University Bahcesehir University Environmental Sciences Toxicology Elements Radionuclides Sediment Enrichment factor Golden Horn MUSSELS MYTILUS-GALLOPROVINCIALIS METAL CONCENTRATIONS GOLDEN HORN SURFACE SEDIMENTS MARINE-SEDIMENTS TRACE-METALS IZMIT BAY PB-210 BOSPORUS PO-210 The Golden Horn Estuary, Istanbul, Turkey, had been exposed to untreated industrial discharges and municipal wastewater for over fifty years, however, during the last fifteen years pollution has been reduced due to an extensive rehabilitation campaign. Since sediment is the main accumulation matrix of marine ecosystems, surface sediment samples were collected from the estuary and analyzed for concentrations of some elements and radioactivity. The elements of predominant anthropogenic origin such as As, Cu, Pb, Sb, Sn and Zn and Cs-137 were observed in the mid-estuary. Also, elevated geoaccumulation indices for Ag, Cd, Cu and Sb showed that pollution was still occurring in the estuary despite the rehabilitation. There is a huge residential area near the estuary, therefore, people living in this area are affected due to the pollution of the estuary. Thus, the obtained data of the elements and radionuclides are very important for the ecosystem of the Golden Horn. 2025-10-09T10:49:17Z 2019 Article 0007-4861 1432-0800 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00128-019-02636-8 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/15291 10.1007/s00128-019-02636-8 354 361 103 2 31119313 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000476598000022 en BULLETIN OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONTAMINATION AND TOXICOLOGY Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) [112Y060] Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit of Istanbul University [26793] Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK)(Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK)) Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit of Istanbul University(Istanbul University) This research was supported by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK, Project Number: 112Y060) and by the Scientific Research Projects Coordination Unit of Istanbul University (Project Number: 26793).

Institutional and Transaction Cost Influences on Partnership Structure of Foreign Affiliates Demirbag, Mehmet Tatoglu, Ekrem Glaister, Keith W. University of Sheffield Bahcesehir University University of Sheffield Management Institutional variables Transaction cost variables FDI Dyadic JVs Multi-partner JVs Wholly owned subsidiaries Turkey ENTRY-MODE CHOICE JOINT VENTURES DIRECT-INVESTMENT MULTINATIONAL-ENTERPRISES INTERNATIONAL ENTRY ECLECTIC PARADIGM NATIONAL CULTURE EQUITY OWNERSHIP PERFORMANCE FIRMS This paper considers the determinants of foreign affiliate structure in the context of foreign equity ventures in Turkey. Institutional variables and transaction costs variables are examined as determinants of choice between wholly owned subsidiary, dyadic joint venture and multi-partner joint venture. The findings support the majority of the hypotheses. We find that research and development (R&D) intensity, cultural distance, location of affiliate, affiliate size, political risk and corruption perception distances are particularly important in determining the choice of affiliate structure. Some partial support has also been found for the impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) concentration and linguistic distance on partnership structure of foreign affiliates. No support, however, has been noted for the effect of advertising intensity of the target industry. Both transaction cost specific and institution specific variables were found to be significant in explaining affiliate formation decisions. 2025-10-09T10:57:01Z 2010 Article 0938-8249 1861-8901 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11575-010-0055-y https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/15679 10.1007/s11575-010-0055-y 709 745 50 6 Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) WOS:000284648000003 en MANAGEMENT INTERNATIONAL REVIEW SPRINGER HEIDELBERG

Eco-friendly fabrication of flexible graphene coated piezoresistive foams for motion sensing Navidfar, Amir Mohamad, Omar Mohamad Abdel Aal Hejazi, Mohamad-Anas Trabzon, Levent Bahcesehir University Istanbul Technical University Materials Science, Multidisciplinary Graphene Conductive foams Piezoresistive foams Coating Motion sensing SENSOR The progress of flexible materials processing technologies has been remarkable, driven by the growing demand for flexible, ultra-sensitive wearable sensors in applications such as myoelectric prosthetics, soft robotics, and personalized health tracking. Conductive materials coated Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) sponges were utilized as piezoresistive sensors. A lightweight graphene-coated piezoresistive sensor was prepared via a green solution containing graphene nanoplatelets (GNP), sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The sponges with seven times coating revealed a resistance of below 100 k ohm at 80% strain, which indicated their sensing ability. The sensor output linearly increased as the strain raised, which was analyzed using linear regression to find the gauge factor of 1.387. A cyclic test was conducted on the foam-based piezoresistive sensor, demonstrating a stable response. The prepared conductive PDMS foam was tested on three main body joints (i.e. finger, knee, and, foot) at different angles and could detect mechanical action, indicating its potential use as a body-mounted strain sensor. 2025-10-09T11:01:11Z 2025 Article 2522-5731 2522-574X http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s42247-024-00958-w https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/15953 10.1007/s42247-024-00958-w 2159 2168 8 3 Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) WOS:001380895000001 en EMERGENT MATERIALS Scientific Research Projects Commission of Bahcesehir University Scientific Research Projects Commission of Bahcesehir University This work was funded by the Scientific Research Projects Commission of Bahcesehir University.

Subcutaneous Toxicity of Agmatine in Rats Kaya Yertutanol, Fatma Duygu Uzbay, İsmail Tayfun Çevreli, Burcu Midi, Ahmet Üsküdar Üniversitesi Üsküdar Üniversitesi Üsküdar Üniversitesi Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi Tıbbi Araştırmalar Deneysel Toksikoloji Veterinerlik Farmakoloji ve Eczacılık Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı sıçanlarda ilk kez tekrarlayan agmatin uygulamasının sensorimotor kapılama sistemi üzerine etkilerini incelemekti, ancak subkütan uygulamada karşımıza çıkan beklenmedik ülseratif nekrotik lezyonlar bu konuya odaklanmamıza neden oldu. Gereç ve Yöntemler: İlk grup deneylerde, erkek Wistar albino sıçanlara 14 gün süreyle subkütan yoldan agmatin (40, 80 ve 160 mg/kg) veya salin (kontrol grubu) enjeksiyonu yapıldı (n=8 her bir grup). Uygulamaların üçüncü gününden itibaren agmatin verilen gruplarda ülseratif nekrotik deri lezyonları gözlendi. Bu etkilerin dermal bir reaksiyona bağlı olup olmadığını anlamak için ayrı bir denek grubuna aynı protokolle agmatin (80 mg/kg) intraperitoneal yoldan verildi (n=8 her bir grup). Bulgular: Bulgularımız subkütan yoldan verilen agmatinin geç dönemde ortaya çıkan bir dermal reaksiyona neden olurken, intraperitoneal uygulamanın böyle bir etki oluşturmadığına işaret etti. Lezyon gözlenen deneklerden alınan deri örneklerinin histopatolojik incelemesinde, enjeksiyon yerindeki deride aseptik nekroz saptanırken, bu deneklerin kan testleri normal bulundu. Sonuç: Bu bulgu sıçanlarda uzun süreli subkütan agmatin uygulamasının denek refahı bakımından risk oluşturan toksik bir etkiye neden olduğuna işaret etmektedir. Bu bulgu insanlarda oral yoldan reçetesiz olarak alınabilen agmatinin bazı potansiyel riskleri olabileceği konusunda sorular ortaya çıkarmaktadır. 2025-09-20T20:02:08Z 2017 2022-07-29 Research Article 1304-530X 2148-6247 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/5588 127 133 14 2 tr Turkish Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences application/pdf

Seroepidemiology of Hepatitis B Virus Infection in Istanbul: A 20-year Survey Furuncuoglu, Yavuz Saglam, Filiz Bolukbas, Filiz Fusun Bolukbas, Cengiz Ozturk, Recep Bahcesehir University Medical Park Hospitals Group Bahcesehir University Bahcesehir University Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa Istanbul University Medicine, General & Internal Hepatitis B virus seroprevalence vaccination Istanbul BLOOD-DONORS TRANSMISSION TURKEY SEROPREVALENCE POPULATION PREVENTION PREVALENCE TRENDS Objective: Turkey is an intermediate endemic country for hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, with the prevalence rates showing regional differences. The aim of this study was to determine the recent prevalence of HBV infection among adults in Istanbul and to evaluate the impact of national vaccination program that started in 1998. Materials and Methods: Data of three healthcare centers from 3 different districts in Istanbul between 1995 and 2015 were obtained. HBV status of the participants was evaluated according to their hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and anti-HBs results. The change in HBV prevalence was evaluated by dividing the time included in the study into three periods: 1995-2002, 2003-2009 and 2010-2015. Statistical comparison between groups studied in each period was performed. To evaluate the impact of vaccination, the patients of 15-17 years of age were compared with the rest of the last study group. Results: Totally, 26001 adult patients were included in the study. HBsAg and anti-HBs tested positive in 4.24% and 16.81% of patients, respectively. When the 20 years included in the study were divided into three periods and each studied separately, the positive results for HBsAg decreased from 5.34% to 4.8% and 3.08%, and positive anti-HBs results increased from 14.24% to 15.45% and 19.57%, the difference between the groups being statistically significant (p<0.001). In vaccinated group (n=287), no one tested positive for HBsAg and 30.3% of patients tested positive for anti-HBs, being statistically different from the rest of the group (p<0.001). Conclusion: Despite the positive effects of vaccination, chronic HB remains a serious health problem. 2025-10-09T11:36:28Z 2016 Article 1307-9441 2147-2939 http://dx.doi.org/10.4274/vhd.30932 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/17840 10.4274/vhd.30932 88 91 22 3 Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) WOS:000393194100005 en VIRAL HEPATIT DERGISI-VIRAL HEPATITIS JOURNAL GALENOS YAYINCILIK

In this paper, we present a Random Sampling Consensus (RANSAC) based training approach for the problem of emotion recognition from spontaneous speech recordings. Our motivation is to insert a data cleaning process to the training phase of the Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) for the purpose of removing some suspicious instances of labels that may exist in the training dataset. Our experiments using HMMs with various number of states and Gaussian mixtures per state indicate that utilization of RANSAC in the training phase provides an improvement of up to 2.84% in the unweighted recall rates on the test set. This improvement in the accuracy of the classifier is shown to be statistically significant using McNemar's test. © 2011 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

In this work, we implemented ECC in the frequency domain, that is, by using the number theoretic transform, and without using hardware multiplier support, on the constrained MSP430 microcontroller widely used in WSNs. Our 169-bit ECC implementation uses Edwards curves and performs scalar point multiplication in only 1.97 and 0.98 s for multiplication of random and fixed points, respectively. Unlike many implementations in literature, our implementation does not use hardware multiplier support, which makes it desirable for low-power applications on constrained WSN platforms.

Operation and performance of the ATLAS semiconductor tracker in LHC Run 2 Instruments & Instrumentation Charge transport and multiplication in solid media Particle tracking detectors (Solid-state detectors) Radiation damage to detector materials (solid state) Solid state detectors SILICON DETECTORS SYSTEM The semiconductor tracker (SCT) is one of the tracking systems for charged particles in the ATLAS detector. It consists of 4088 silicon strip sensor modules. During Run 2 (2015-2018) the Large Hadron Collider delivered an integrated luminosity of 156 fb(-1) to the ATLAS experiment at a centre-of-mass proton-proton collision energy of 13 TeV. The instantaneous luminosity and pile-up conditions were far in excess of those assumed in the original design of the SCT detector. Due to improvements to the data acquisition system, the SCT operated stably throughout Run 2. It was available for 99.9% of the integrated luminosity and achieved a data-quality efficiency of 99.85%. Detailed studies have been made of the leakage current in SCT modules and the evolution of the full depletion voltage, which are used to study the impact of radiation damage to the modules.

Interference effects between the signal process and standard model tt production, which are expected to distort the signal shape from a single peak to a peak-dip structure, are taken into account. No significant deviation from the standard model prediction is observed in the tt invariant mass spectrum in final states with an electron or muon, large missing transverse momentum, and at least four jets. The results are interpreted within the context of a type-II two-Higgs-doublet model. Exclusion limits on the signal strength are derived as a function of the mass mA/H and the ratio of the vacuum expectation values of the two Higgs fields, tanβ, for mA/H&gt;500 GeV. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:13:55Z 2017 Article 10797114 00319007 https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.119.191803 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/11919 10.1103/PhysRevLett.119.191803 2-s2.0-85034070285 119 19 29219511 en Physical Review Letters All Open Access Green Accepted Open Access Green Open Access Hybrid Gold Open Access application/pdf American Physical Society

Preliminary results of blood growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF-9) measurement in cats: future aspects of GDF-9 on stage of the cycle and spaying history Dal, G. Evkuran Baykal, A. Karabulut, T. S.

Istanbul University - Cerrahpasa Bahcesehir University Veterinary Sciences cats growth differentiation factor 9 ovarian cycle ovary OVARIAN REMNANT SYNDROME ANTI-MULLERIAN HORMONE FACTOR-BETA SUPERFAMILY DOMESTIC CAT EXPRESSION MEMBERS BMP-15 BITCH DOGS Growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF-9), an oocyte-derived member of the TGF-beta superfamily, plays an essential role in regulation of follicular development. This study aimed to determine the cyclic changes in serum GDF-9 concentration, compare its levels before and after ovariohysterectomy (OHE), and investigate its potential as a tool in ovarian remnant syndrome (ORS) diagnosis in cats. GDF-9 measurements were performed on 50 cats referred for routine OHE. The stage of the estrous cycle was determined by vaginal cytology and measurement of serum estradiol and progesterone levels was carried out to detect the cyclic changes in circulating GDF-9. One week after OHE, serum samples were collected again from 30 cats to reveal differences in GDF-9 levels. GDF-9 levels in the follicular phase were significantly higher than those in the interestrus (p<0.05). The postoperative analysis could be performed. GDF-9 levels slightly decreased one week after OHE (p=0.053). In conclusion, blood GDF-9 levels change during the estrous cycle, and may decrease with age in cats. However, further studies are needed to reveal the efficiency of GDF-9 in ORS diagnosis. 2025-10-09T11:02:59Z 2022 Article 1505-1773 2300-2557 http://dx.doi.org/10.24425/pjvs.2022.140851 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/16074 10.24425/pjvs.2022.140851 149 154 25 1 35575995 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000779784000018 en POLISH JOURNAL OF VETERINARY SCIENCES Bronze POLSKA AKAD NAUK, POLISH ACAD SCIENCES, UNIV WARMIA & MAZURY OLSZTYN

Among the various sensor types, multistatic sonobuoy systems are a promising development in submerged target detection systems. These systems consist of sources (active sensors) and receivers (passive sensors), which need not be collocated. A multistatic sonobuoy system consisting of a single source and receiver is called a bistatic system. The sensing zone of this fundamental system is defined by Cassini ovals. The unique properties and unusual geometrical profile of these ovals distinguish the bistatic sensor allocation problem from conventional sonar placement problems. This study is aimed at supporting decision makers in making the best use of bistatic sonobuoys to detect stationary and mobile targets transiting through an area of interest. We use integral geometry and geometric probability concepts to derive analytic expressions for the optimal source and receiver separation distances to maximize the detection probability of a submerged target. We corroborate our analytic results using Monte Carlo simulation. Our approach constitutes a valuable back of the envelope method for the important and difficult problem of analyzing bistatic sonar performance. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:08:48Z 2018 Article 15206750 0894069X https://doi.org/10.1002/nav.21807 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/11636 10.1002/nav.21807 2-s2.0-85053502377 331 346 65 4 en Naval Research Logistics John Wiley and Sons Inc.

On T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), CM appears as a hyperintense area near the spondylotic spine. This high intensity signal depends on the impact of outer forces and their duration. It also determines the prognosis of the surgical candidate. A 40-year-old male patient admitted to our clinic with right upper extremity weakness and hypoesthesia that had started 2 months earlier. On neurological examination there was 2/5 motor weakness of right biceps brachii, and hypoesthesia over right C6 dermatome. Right upper extremity deep tendon reflexes were hypoactive, but lower ones were hyperactive. After clinical and radiological work-up, preliminary diagnosis was directed to a spinal intramedullary tumor. Total resection of the herniated cervical disc fragment and the mass lesion was managed. Pathology of the mass lesion was compatible with subacute infarct tissue and inflammatory response. Final diagnosis was CM under effect of cervical disc herniation. Contrast-enhanced spinal cord myelopathic lesions are very rare and resemble much more tumors and inflammatory processes. However, the principal treatment approach totally differs depending on pathology. When there are both a disc herniation and a high clinical suspicion, biopsy should be delayed. The most probable solution will be surgery for the disc disease with thorough preoperative scanning of vascular malformations, clinical and radiological close follow-up after surgery. Biopsy or surgical resection can be performed if patient deteriorates despite the primary surgery. © 2021 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:32:14Z 2015 Article 09769285 09748237 https://doi.org/10.4103/0974-8237.156073 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/12776 10.4103/0974-8237.156073 2-s2.0-84930011543 92 96 6 2 en Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Final Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications

In biological tissues, such as the human brain, neighboring structures exhibit co-dependencies which can aid in segmentation, if properly analyzed and modeled. Motivated by this observation, we formulate the segmentation problem as a maximum a posteriori estimation problem, in which we incorporate statistical prior models on the shapes and intershape (relative) poses of the structures of interest. This provides a principled mechanism to bring high level information about the shapes and the relationships of anatomical structures into the segmentation problem. For learning the prior densities we use a nonparametric multivariate kernel density estimation framework. We combine these priors with data in a variational framework and develop an active contour-based iterative segmentation algorithm. We test our method on the problem of volumetric segmentation of basal ganglia structures in magnetic resonance images. We present a set of 2-D and 3-D experiments as well as a quantitative performance analysis. In addition, we perform a comparison to several existent segmentation methods and demonstrate the improvements provided by our approach in terms of segmentation accuracy. © 2010 IEEE. © 2010 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:46:20Z 2010 Article 02780062 1558254X https://doi.org/10.1109/TMI.2010.2053554 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/13638 10.1109/TMI.2010.2053554 2-s2.0-78649652036 1959 1978 29 12 21118755 en IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging

This case study explores the therapeutic SE session in addressing medical trauma, focusing on a 38-year-old female who experienced cardiac arrest. The convergent mixed-method design integrates qualitative and quantitative data to provide a comprehensive analysis of the client’s journey through one SE therapy session. Central to this study is the examination of heart rate variability (HRV) as a measure of autonomic nervous system (ANS) regulation. The findings illustrate how SE facilitates the restoration of autonomic balance and emotional regulation through body-centred interventions and therapist-assisted touch.

Investigation of the Fe3+ centers in perovskite KMgF3 through a combination of ab initio (density functional theory) and semi-empirical (superposition model) calculations Emul, Y. Erbahar, D. Acikgoz, M. Bahcesehir University Cumhuriyet University Gebze Technical University Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) CNRS - Institute of Chemistry (INC) Nantes Universite Physics, Applied FIELD SPLITTING PARAMETERS SPIN-HAMILTONIAN PARAMETERS TETRAGONAL FEF5O CLUSTER SINGLE-CRYSTALS EPR-SPECTRA RESONANCE IONS PSEUDOPOTENTIALS DISTORTIONS KZNF3 Analyses of the local crystal and electronic structure in the vicinity of Fe3+ centers in perovskite KMgF3 crystal have been carried out in a comprehensive manner. A combination of density functional theory (DFT) and a semi-empirical superposition model (SPM) is used for a complete analysis of all Fe3+ centers in this study for the first time. Some quantitative information has been derived from the DFT calculations on both the electronic structure and the local geometry around Fe3+ centers. All of the trigonal (K-vacancy case, K-Li substitution case, and normal trigonal Fe3+ center case), FeF5O cluster, and tetragonal (Mg-vacancy and Mg-Li substitution cases) centers have been taken into account based on the previously suggested experimental and theoretical inferences. The collaboration between the experimental data and the results of both DFT and SPM calculations provides us to understand most probable structural model for Fe3+ centers in KMgF3.

The impacts of prestige projects on the skyline of Istanbul Akdağ, Suzan Girginkaya Bostancı, Seda H. Akdağ, Suzan Girginkaya, Faculty of Architecture and Design, Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi, Istanbul, Turkey Bostancı, Seda H., Provincial Governments Program, Istanbul Okan University, Tuzla, Turkey Aesthetic Quality Entropy Gis Models Prestige Projects Urban Skylines The concept of prestige projects for cities is related to governments' politics and visions. Under the effects of globalization, central and local authorities have constructedcompetitive cities. But these cities also have important historical qualities hence theseprocesses have to be made by a holistic planning vision and conservation strategy. Forinstance, if a city waterfront skyline has a strong image, new constructions should bedesigned in harmony with the local topography and urban pattern. This paper is based onmathematical and computer based approaches for evaluating aesthetic qualities of cityskylines. Therefore a case study on high rise buildings in the main prestige CBD ofIstanbul is done. GIS models of Maslak-Zincirlikuyu axis is made and its past, presentand future skylines are extracted by database querying and visual analysis. The skylinesderived are finally measured by entropy analyses based on formal aestheticcharacteristics. © 2013 Archnet-IJAR, International Journal of Architectural Research. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:41:09Z 2013 Article 19387806 26316862 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/13265 2-s2.0-84886776366 269 281 7 2 en Archnet-IJAR: International Journal of Architectural Research ArchNet

Here, we investigated the inhibition of these cholinesterases with uracil derivatives. The mechanism of inhibition of these enzymes was observed to be due to obstruction of the active site entrance by the inhibitors scaffold. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations demonstrated the possible key interactions between the studied ligands and amino acid residues at different regions of the active sites of AChE and BuChE. Being diverse of the classical AChE and BuChE inhibitors, the investigated uracil derivatives may be used as lead molecules for designing new therapeutically effective enzyme inhibitors. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:04:17Z 2019 Article 14756366 14756374 https://doi.org/10.1080/14756366.2018.1543288 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/11411 10.1080/14756366.2018.1543288 2-s2.0-85059769768 429 437 34 1 30734597 en Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Final Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Taylor and Francis Ltd

Drug Re-Positioning Studies for Novel HIV-1 Inhibitors Using Binary QSAR Models and Multi-Target-DrivenIn SilicoStudies Dogan, Berna Durdagi, Serdar Bahcesehir University Chemistry, Medicinal Computer Science, Interdisciplinary Applications Mathematical & Computational Biology HIV Virtual Screening Molecular Dynamics Drug Re-positioning Multi-target drugs DESIGNED DUAL INHIBITORS BINDING FREE-ENERGY REVERSE-TRANSCRIPTASE PROTONATION STATE COUMARIN DERIVATIVES MULTITARGET DRUGS PROTEASE DYNAMICS COMBINATION PREDICTION Current antiretroviral therapies against HIV involve the usage of at least two drugs that target different stages of HIV life cycle. However, potential drug interactions and side effects pose a problem. A promising concept for complex disease treatment is 'one molecule-multiple target' approach to overcome undesired effects of multiple drugs. Additionally, it is beneficial to consider drug re-purposing due to the cost of taking a drug into the market. Taking these into account, here potential anti-HIV compounds are suggested by virtually screening small approved drug molecules and clinical candidates. Initially, binary QSAR models are used to predict the therapeutic activity of around 7900 compounds against HIV and to predict the toxicity of molecules with high therapeutic activities. Selected compounds are considered for molecular docking studies against two targets, HIV-1 protease enzyme, and chemokine co-receptor CCR5. The top docking poses for all 549 molecules are then subjected to short (1 ns) individual molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and they are ranked based on their calculated relative binding free energies. Finally, 25 molecules are selected for long (200 ns) MD simulations, and 5 molecules are suggested as promising multi-target HIV agents. The results of this study may open new avenues for the designing of new dual HIV-1 inhibitor scaffolds. 2025-10-09T10:33:35Z 2021 Article 1868-1743 1868-1751 http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/minf.202000012 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/14305 10.1002/minf.202000012 40 2 33405326 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000569399500001 en MOLECULAR INFORMATICS Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) [TUBITAK-2218] Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK)(Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK)) This study has been financially funded by Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) under the program of TUBITAK-2218.

PX can be inspected in various gaming platforms, which present diverse interaction methods through different peripherals, consequently uncovering the complex nature of video games. Therefore, it is critical to understand the nature of PX through user research. However, limited number of studies investigated PX and playability in detail in order to create an analysis framework for entertainment systems by referring to former UX and usability methodologies. Majority of those studies presented a set of playability heuristics on theoretical basis, which still required to be tested through empirical research in various gaming platforms. In this context, this study focuses on the qualitative analysis of multi-platform PX through a proposed playability heuristics framework derived from relevant literature. This study aims to test the proposed framework in a multi-platform game setting and thus seek ways to contribute to the establishment of a new comprehensive analysis framework to understand multiplatform PX. For this purpose, a qualitative multi-method study based on game platform diversity is designed to measure player experience with 8 users in two different gaming platforms which is based on mobile and full body gesture based interaction. Besides revealing the effect of On-Screen elements on PX such as game interface, mechanics and gameplay, the study also presents promising findings for the effect of Off-Screen aspects such as the environmental and social factors. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:28:25Z 2016 Conference Paper 16113349 03029743 https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-40355-7_22 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/12598 10.1007/978-3-319-40355-7_22 2-s2.0-84977514745 229 239 9747 Toronto, ON 5th International Conference on Design, User Experience, and Usability, DUXU 2016 Held as Part of 18th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, HCI International 2016 en Lecture Notes in Computer Science Springer Verlag service@springer.de

Because, when a dam fails the damage is certain, but the extent of this damage cannot be evaluated in advance. The loss of life and property damage can vary depending on flood area and population. In order to cope with embankment dam breaching and to take necessary steps beforehand many researchers worked on parametric breach models based on Regression Analysis (RA) to estimate the peak outflow from a breached embankment dam since 1970s. RA is a widely-used approach that could provide acceptable results. Since, this approach bears restrictive assumptions, direct application of RA ignoring these assumptions might cause pitfalls and biased calculations. In this study, it is shown that previous works generated by RA gives biased calculations and a new alternative approach, based on Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), is suggested in replacement of classical RA, which gives more accurate results according to both numerical error criteria and scientific background. © 2014 Korean Society of Civil Engineers and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. © 2014 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:36:55Z 2014 Article 19763808 12267988 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12205-014-0047-8 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/13027 10.1007/s12205-014-0047-8 2-s2.0-84906946779 1868 1876 18 6 en KSCE Journal of Civil Engineering Springer Verlag service@springer.de

One of the main cells involved in airway inflammation is eosinophils. In the current study, a bronchial provocation test (BPT) was performed to demonstrate airway hyperresponsiveness. We investigated the relationship between BPT and blood eosinophil count and the cut-off value of blood eosinophil count. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the data of 246 patients who visited our immunology and allergy clinic, a tertiary reference center, with asthma symptoms between May 2017 and March 2020 and underwent BPT with methacholine for the diagnosis of asthma. The cases were grouped according to the level of BPT positivity and negativity. RESULTS: Of 246 patients, BPT was positive in 90 (36.6%) and negative in 156 (63.4%). The blood eosinophil measurement of the BPT-positive cases was found to be statistically significantly higher than that of the BPT-negative cases (135 vs. 119 cells/µl, respectively, p=0.029). When BPT is grouped according to positivity levels, there was no statistically significant difference in blood eosinophil measurements between subgroups (p=0.174). As a result of the evaluations, the cut-off point obtained for the blood eosinophil count was determined as ≥226 cells/µl. For the blood eosinophil count, for the cut-off value of ≥226 cells/µl, sensitivity was 30.0%, specificity 87.7%, positive predictive value 58.7%, and negative predictive value 68.3%. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that BPT positivity is associated with blood eosinophil count. The cut-off value (≥226 cells/µl) determined for blood eosinophil count may be helpful when planning BPT and evaluating the diagnosis of asthma. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:55:21Z 2024 Article 22840729 11283602 https://doi.org/10.26355/eurrev_202402_35342 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/7609 10.26355/eurrev_202402_35342 2-s2.0-85185584814 1060 1065 28 3 38375711 en European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences Verduci Editore s.r.l

Reiterative presentation of the east in western-produced video games: A foucauldian discourse analysis Halabi, Gina Al Süngü, Ertuğrul Halabi, Gina Al, Istanbul Bilgi Üniversitesi, Istanbul, Turkey Süngü, Ertuğrul, Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi, Istanbul, Turkey Today's video game industry is full of examples of games that showcase Oriental stereotypes repetitively and portray them with the typical passive, barbaric, and violent perception. The methodology of this study builds its structure on that problem by gathering data from a conducted survey that focuses on video gamers based in the Middle East, with the aim of exploring how the reiteration of the stereotypical portrayal of the Orient in video games produced by the West affect people's perception of the Orient. The data then gathered will be analyzed according to Carla Willig's approach of the Foucauldian discourse analysis using six stages: (1) discursive constructions, (2) discourses, (3) action orientation, (4) positionings, (5) practice, and (6) subjectivity. The analysis's main limits and strengths will then be taken into consideration, and recommendations will be suggested based on the results of the analysis. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:33:27Z 2021 Book Chapter 9781799871804 9781799871828 https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-7998-7180-4.ch032 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/9626 10.4018/978-1-7998-7180-4.ch032 2-s2.0-85127950324 557 573 en IGI Global

It has been revealed that the implantation with Co on different fluencies of metal concentrations produces a granular composite film in the surface layer of BaTiO3 substrate, which exhibits remarkable ferromagnetic behavior. EMR measurements revealed spectra originated from iron impurities of BaTiO3 substrate. Ferromagnetic resonance spectra from Co-implanted surface layer, exhibiting an out-of-plane uniaxial magnetic anisotropy, were also observed. The magnetization measurements performed in various geometries show that the ferromagnetic Co:BaTiO3 system displays easy-plane magnetic anisotropy. It has been shown that the magnetization and coercivity of ferromagnetic state depends on the fluence of implantation. The observed phenomena are discussed on the basis of strong magnetic dipolar interaction between Co nanoparticles inside the granular composite film formed as a result of implantation. 2025-10-09T12:18:38Z 2010 Article 2469-9950 2469-9969 http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.82.054402 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/19616 10.1103/PhysRevB.82.054402 82 5 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000280485500002 en PHYSICAL REVIEW B Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) [2009T061] Research Projects Commission of Gebze Institute of Technology [2009-A11] DPT [2009K120730] Kazan Physical-Technical Institute (Russia) Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR) [07-02-00559, 10-02-91225_CT_a,] Russian Federal Agency on Education [P902] Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK)(Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK)) Research Projects Commission of Gebze Institute of Technology DPT(Turkiye Cumhuriyeti Kalkinma Bakanligi) Kazan Physical-Technical Institute (Russia) Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR)(Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFBR)) Russian Federal Agency on Education(Federal Agency for Science & Innovations (FASI)) The authors from Gebze Institute of Technology are indebted to The Scientific & Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) for supporting this work by Project No. 2009T061 and Research Projects Commission of Gebze Institute of Technology for supporting this work by Grant No. 2009-A11.

Mirabegron: A Novel and Promising Medical Expulsive Treatment for Ureteral Stones? Urkmez, Ahmet Tokuc, Emre Topaktas, Ramazan Sahin, Aytac Yuksel, Ozgur H. Istanbul Haydarpasa Numune Training & Research Hospital Fatih Sultan Mehmet Training & Research Hospital Bahcesehir University Medicine, General & Internal Medical expulsive treatment Mirabegron Ureteral stone Beta-3 adrenoreceptor Medical expulsive therapy (MET) is used especially in distal ureteral stones to reduce colics and decrease the number of endourological surgical interventions. A broad spectrum of agents can be used for the relaxation and the dilatation of the ureter, reducing the intraureteric pressure. Alfa-blockers, calcium channel blockers, phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors, and spasmolytics have been shown as effective in clinical trials on urolithiasis. It is a fact that the urothelium itself, the interstitial cells and the ureteric smooth muscle, have B-beta-2 and beta-3 adrenoreceptors. Stimulation of these receptors results in relaxation of the ureter. A recent beta-3 agonist, mirabegron, is commonly used for overactive bladder nowadays. The mechanism of action is adrenergic agonism that affects with the storage phase of the bladder, without interfering the voiding phase, which is regulated by parasympathetic pathways, commonly muscarinic. Agonism of the beta-3 receptors in the ureter has been shown to decrease the intraluminal pressure. By this mechanism, mirabegron can be thought as an alternative MET agent. Acting through different pathways, and having low adverse effect profile, can be thought as the most striking advantages of mirabegron as a MET. In vitro and in vivo trials should be conducted to support this hypothesis. 2025-10-09T11:41:59Z 2019 Article 1022-386X 1681-7168 http://dx.doi.org/10.29271/jcpsp.2019.01.73 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/18190 10.29271/jcpsp.2019.01.73 73 74 29 1 30630575 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000455434800019 en JCPSP-JOURNAL OF THE COLLEGE OF PHYSICIANS AND SURGEONS PAKISTAN gold COLL PHYSICIANS & SURGEONS PAKISTAN

The students' responses to standardized clinical vignettes on schizophrenia, and depression with suicidal ideation, were also assessed. A total of 257 North Macedonian (females, 31.5%, 1-4 grades, 189, 5-6 grades, 68), 268 Turkish (females, 43.3%, 1-4 grades, 90, 5-6 grades, 178), 450 Kazakh (females, 28.4%, 71.6%, 1-4 grades, 312, 5-6 grades, 138), 512 Azerbaijani (females, 24%, 1-4 grades, 468, 5-6 grades, 44, females, 24%), and 317 Polish (females, 59.0%, 1-4 grades, 208, 5-6 grades, 109) students were surveyed. The responses on the RIBS social distance behavior measures did not improve with advancing medical school grade, but students across all sites viewed schizophrenia and depression as real medical illnesses. The results support the development of enhanced range of integrated training opportunities for medical student to socially interact with persons with mental illness sharing their experiences with them. 2025-10-09T12:26:21Z 2022 Article 0165-1781 1872-7123 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.psychres.2022.114409 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/19774 10.1016/j.psychres.2022.114409 309 35121341 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) WOS:000860501100029 en PSYCHIATRY RESEARCH Fogarty International Center/NIH [D43TW009680] Fogarty International Center/NIH(United States Department of Health & Human ServicesNational Institutes of Health (NIH) - USANIH Fogarty International Center (FIC)) The authors report no conflicts of financial and personal competing interests noted.

MINERAL ELEMENT UPTAKE STATUS OF ENDEMIC ISOETES ANATOLICA PRADA & ROLLERI POPULATIONS FROM BOLU-TURKEY Ozyigit, Ibrahim Ilker Dogan, Ilhan Eskin, Bulent Keskin, Mustafa Demir, Goksel Yalcin, Ibrahim Ertugrul Marmara University Izmir Institute of Technology Bahcesehir University Plant Sciences ISOETACEAE L. Isoetes genus is commonly known as the quillworts and considered to be fern allies. There are about 200-250 species, with a cosmopolitan distribution but often scarce to rare. Isoetes genus members often grow in extremely sensitive aquatic environments such as temporary ponds, streams and lakes. They are therefore good indicators of environmental quality. Isoetes anatolica Prada & Rolleri is an endemic plant grows on calcareous sediment/soil on the edges of seasonal ponds located in a mountainous area near the southern coast of the Black Sea at 1400 m above sea level at Bolu, Turkey. In this study, mineral element uptake statuses of I. anatolica populations were studied on the background of plant-sediment/soil-water interactions. The study materials were collected from the place where this narrow endemic species only lives in the world (Abant Region, Bolu/Turkey) by using standard methods and plant and sediment/soil mineral element measurements (Al, B, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni and Zn) were done. ICP-OES was employed for the measurements during the study. Interrelations between mineral element contents in the sediment/soil, water and plant were discussed. The data revealed that I. anatolica is capable of accumulating considerable amounts of certain mineral elements (B, Ca, Mn and Na). 2025-10-09T11:22:30Z 2013 Article 0556-3321 2070-3368 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/17090 515 519 45 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000315358800069 en PAKISTAN JOURNAL OF BOTANY Marmara University, Commission of Scientific Research Project [FEN-D-040712-0291] Marmara University, Commission of Scientific Research Project(Marmara University) This study was funded by Marmara University, Commission of Scientific Research Project under grant FEN-D-040712-0291.

Search for top-quark decays t → Hq with 36 fb-1 of pp collision data at √s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector Physics, Particles & Fields Hadron-Hadron scattering (experiments) Rare decay Top physics PAIR-PRODUCTION CROSS-SECTION STANDARD HIGGS PROGRAM A search for flavour-changing neutral current decays of a top quark into an up-type quark (q = u, c) and the Standard Model Higgs boson, t Hq, is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at = 13 TeV recorded in 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb(-1). Two complementary analyses are performed to search for top-quark pair events in which one top quark decays into Wb and the other top quark decays into Hq, and target the Hbb and H (+-) decay modes, respectively. The high multiplicity of b-quark jets, or the presence of hadronically decaying -leptons, is exploited in the two analyses respectively. Multivariate techniques are used to separate the signal from the background, which is dominated by top-quark pair production. No significant excess of events above the background expectation is found, and 95% CL upper limits on the t Hq branching ratios are derived. The combination of these searches with ATLAS searches in diphoton and multilepton final states yields observed (expected) 95% CL upper limits on the t Hc and t Hu branching ratios of 1.1 x 10(-3) (8.3 x 10(-4)) and 1.2 x 10(-3) (8.3 x 10(-4)), respectively. The corresponding combined observed (expected) upper limits on the |(tcH)| and |(tuH)| couplings are 0.064 (0.055) and 0.066 (0.055), respectively. 2025-10-09T17:07:06Z 2019 Article 1029-8479 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/JHEP05(2019)123 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/20034 10.1007/JHEP05(2019)123 5 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000468948900001 en JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS Green Submitted Green Accepted gold ANPCyT, Argentina YerPhI, Armenia ARC, Australia BMWFW, Austria FWF, Austria ANAS, Azerbaijan SSTC, Belarus CNPq, Brazil FAPESP, Brazil NSERC, Canada NRC, Canada CFI, Canada CERN CONICYT, Chile CAS, China MOST, China NSFC, China COLCIENCIAS, Colombia MSMT CR, Czech Republic MPO CR, Czech Republic VSC CR, Czech Republic DNRF, Denmark DNSRC, Denmark IN2P3-CNRS, CEA-DRF/IRFU, France SRNSFG, Georgia BMBF, Germany HGF, Germany MPG, Germany GSRT, Greece RGC, Hong Kong SAR, China ISF, Israel Benoziyo Center, Israel INFN, Italy MEXT, Japan JSPS, Japan CNRST, Morocco NWO, Netherlands RCN, Norway MNiSW, Poland NCN, Poland FCT, Portugal MNE/IFA, Romania MES of Russia, Russian Federation NRC KI, Russian Federation JINR MESTD, Serbia MSSR, Slovakia ARRS, Slovenia MIZS, Slovenia DST/NRF, South Africa MINECO, Spain SRC, Sweden Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden SERI, Switzerland SNSF, Switzerland Canton of Bern, Switzerland MOST, Taiwan TAEK, Turkey STFC, United Kingdom DOE, United States of America NSF, United States of America BCKDF, Canada CANARIE, Canada CRC, Canada Compute Canada, Canada COST, European Union ERC, European Union ERDF, European Union Horizon 2020, European Union Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions, European Union Investissements d' Avenir Labex, ANR, France Investissements d' Avenir Idex, ANR, France DFG, Germany AvH Foundation, Germany Herakleitos programme -

Search for light resonances decaying to boosted quark pairs and produced in association with a photon or a jet in proton-proton collisions at √s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector Astronomy & Astrophysics Physics, Nuclear Physics, Particles & Fields PARTON DISTRIBUTIONS DARK-MATTER CONSTRAINTS This Letter presents a search for new light resonances decaying to pairs of quarks and produced in association with a high-p(T) photon or jet. The dataset consists of proton-proton collisions with an integrated luminosity of 36.1 fb(-1) at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 13 TeV recorded by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Resonance candidates are identified as massive large-radius jets with substructure consistent with a particle decaying into a quark pair. The mass spectrum of the candidates is examined for local excesses above background.

Mutual information based feature selection methods can be used in selecting such minimal yet predictive subsets of features. However, as protein features are organised into natural partitions, individual feature selection that ignores the presence of these views, dismantles them, and treats their variables intermixed along with those of others at best results in a complex un-interpretable predictive system for such multi-view datasets. In this paper, instead of selecting a subset of individual features, each feature subset is passed through a clustering step so that it is represented in discrete form using the cluster indices, this makes mutual information based methods applicable to view-selection. We present our experimental results on a multi-view protein dataset that are used to predict protein structure.

Difficulties often persist from childhood through adulthood lowering the individual’s quality of life. However, the neural correlates of developmental dyscalculia are poorly understood. This study aimed to identify brain structural connectivity alterations in developmental dyscalculia. All participants were recruited from a large scale, non-referred population sample in a longitudinal design. We studied 10 children with developmental dyscalculia (11.3 ± 0.7 years) and 16 typically developing peers (11.2 ± 0.6 years) using diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging. We assessed white matter microstructure with tract-based spatial statistics in regions-of-interest tracts that had previously been related to math ability in children. Then we used global probabilistic tractography for the first time to measure and compare tract length between developmental dyscalculia and typically developing groups. The high angular resolution diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging and crossing-fiber probabilistic tractography allowed us to evaluate the length of the pathways compared to previous studies. The major findings of our study were reduced white matter coherence and shorter tract length of the left superior longitudinal/arcuate fasciculus and left anterior thalamic radiation in the developmental dyscalculia group. Furthermore, the lower white matter coherence and shorter pathways tended to be associated with the lower math performance. These results from the regional analyses indicate that learning, memory and language-related pathways in the left hemisphere might be related to developmental dyscalculia in children. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:06:45Z 2023 Article 16625161 https://doi.org/10.3389/fnhum.2023.1147352 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/8157 10.3389/fnhum.2023.1147352 2-s2.0-85204050448 17 en Frontiers in Human Neuroscience All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Accepted Open Access Green Final Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Frontiers Media SA

Abundant new analytical and approximate solutions to the generalized Schamel equation Ghanbari, Behzad Akgul, Ali Kermanshah University of Technology Bahcesehir University Siirt University Physics, Multidisciplinary exact optical solutions jacobi elliptic solutions the generalized schamel equation the reproducing kernel method numerical simulations HILBERT-SPACE METHOD WAVE SOLUTIONS SOLITONS SOLITARY An exact solution of partial differential equations provides a lot of information for a model. Since obtaining such answers is generally very difficult or in some cases impossible, having powerful analytical methods in determining them seems very necessary. Unlike numerical methods, these methods have fewer constraints such as stability, convergence, and approximation error. This paper aims to consider the generalized Schamel equation which arises in the modeling of some problems in plasma physics. Fortunately, by applying a new analytical method, a large number of exact solutions to the model are obtained. The structure used in the solutions specified in this method uses Jacobi elliptic functions. In another part of the paper, an effective numerical method, namely the reproducing kernel method is used to approximate the solutions of the equation. Numerical simulations of some acquired exact and approximate solutions are also included. It seems that the employed methods can be considered as effective, powerful, and straightforward methods of studying equations. The methods can also be utilized to investigate other partial differential equations. 2025-10-09T11:10:08Z 2020 Article 0031-8949 1402-4896 http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1402-4896/ab8b27 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/16435 10.1088/1402-4896/ab8b27 95 7 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000536265300001 en PHYSICA SCRIPTA IOP PUBLISHING LTD

One size does not fit all: external driver of the cryptocurrency world Erzurumlu, Yaman Omer Oygur, Tunc Kirik, Alper Bahcesehir University Yeditepe University Business, Finance Cryptocurrency Bitcoin Ethereum Altcoin Wavelet correlation Wavelet coherence C23 F36 F65 G15 G2 BITCOIN RETURNS INEFFICIENCY VOLATILITY ECONOMICS GOLD BEHAVIOR PREDICT MEMORY DOLLAR HEDGE Purpose Considering the different motivation for the creation of each of these cryptocurrencies, the purpose of this paper is to examine whether there is a dominant external factor in the cryptocurrency world. Using a novel two-step time and frequency independent methodology, the authors examine a large scope of cryptocurrencies and external factors within the same period, and analytical framework. Design/methodology/approach The examined cryptocurrencies are Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Litecoin, Monero and Dash. In total, 18 external factors from 5 factor families are selected based on the mining motivation of these cryptocurrencies. The study first examines discrete wavelet transform-based (WTB) correlations, reduce the dimension and focuson relevant pairs. Selected pairs are further examined by wavelet coherence to capture the intermittent nature of the relationships allowing the most needed Flexibility of frequency and time domains. Findings Each coin appears to operate as a unique character with the exception of Bitcoin and Litecoin. There is no prominent external driver. The cryptocurrency market is not a clear substitute for a specific factor or market. Two-step WTB filtered wavelet coherence analysis help us to analyze a large number of factor without the loss of focus. The co-movements within the cryptocurrencies spillover from Ethereum to altcoins and later to Bitcoin. Originality/value The study presents one of the first examples of two-step WTB filtered wavelet coherence analysis. The methodology suggests an approach for simultaneous examination of large number of variables. The scope of the study provides a rather holistic view of the co-movements of external factors and major cryptocurrencies. 2025-10-09T10:49:18Z 2020 Article 1086-7376 1755-6791 http://dx.doi.org/10.1108/SEF-01-2020-0018 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/15297 10.1108/SEF-01-2020-0018 545 560 37 3 Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) WOS:000543486500001 en STUDIES IN ECONOMICS AND FINANCE EMERALD GROUP PUBLISHING LTD

A model for locating preventive health care facilities Dogan, Kerim Karatas, Mumtaz Yakici, Ertan Bahcesehir University Operations Research & Management Science Facility location Preventive health care Cancer screening Goal programming STOCHASTIC DEMAND NETWORK DESIGN PERFORMANCE ALLOCATION BREAST INTERVENTIONS CONGESTION CENTERS SERVERS CHOICE In this paper, we focus on the problem of locating preventive health care (PHC) facilities. The most important factors that promote participation rates in PHC programs include the establishment of an appropriate infrastructure and the provision of a satisfactory quality of care. For this purpose, we develop a strategic level multi-objective mixed integer linear programming model for locating PHC facilities to ensure maximum participation and provide timely service to potential clients. We, then, apply the model to a case study of locating Cancer Early Diagnosis, Screening and Training Centers in Istanbul, Turkey and solve it considering the forecasted population of each district in Istanbul for the next 15 years. We also perform a sensitivity analysis to quantify the effect of different weighting strategies on the value of each term in the objective function. 2025-10-09T10:50:59Z 2020 Article 1435-246X 1613-9178 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10100-019-00621-4 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/15387 10.1007/s10100-019-00621-4 1091 1121 28 3 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000549626100011 en CENTRAL EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF OPERATIONS RESEARCH SPRINGER

A review article on philosophy education as a stimuli for early brain development Polat, Özgül Akay, Dicle Polat, Özgül, Marmara Üniversitesi, Istanbul, Turkey Akay, Dicle, Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi, Istanbul, Turkey Brain Development Neuroplasticity Philosophy Education Preschool Period The studies examining the relationship between brain development and desired skills in accordance with the needs emerging from the changing conditions of today have started to change. Although philosophy is a curriculum that becomes widespread with Children for Philosophy developed by Matthew Lipman in Turkey, it is not a curriculum that becomes widespread in preschool period, a period that brain development is on such important. In preschool period that is seen as the most important period in terms of brain development, it is required that children are given the education that will positively affect their neuroplasticity (the flexibility of brain neurons). When the importance of philosophy education programs in early years on children is considered, the importance of giving philosophy education as a thinking skills education program positively affecting children’s thinking skills at first and their skills in all developmental areas in preschool period, becoming widespread these programs and increasing the resources for these programs emerges. Therefore, this study was a review article prepared by the aim of emphasizing the importance of philosophy education in preschool period as a stimuli for brain development, drawing attention to the importance of conducting these programs prevalently and systematically. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:53:30Z 2020 Review 13053515 https://doi.org/10.17051/ilkonline.2020.696699 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/10813 10.17051/ilkonline.2020.696699 2-s2.0-85081198586 1105 1115 19 2 en Elementary Education Online All Open Access Gold Open Access Ankara University ioo.editor@gmail.com

Kriz Nedeni ve Çıkış Yolları Akgüç, Öztin Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi İktisat Yaşanılan ekonomik kriz ile ilgili olarak ortaya atılan görüşler : bu krizin, finansal krizin reel sektöre yansıması olduğu, ABD’de taşınmazlar sektöründe oluşan balonun finansal sektör aracılığı ile yaygın-laşmasından kaynaklandığı, kapitalist düzenin yarattığı bir kriz olarak ortaya çıktığı şeklindedir. Krizden çıkış paketlerinin mali olanakları artırmak şeklinde geliştiği de bilinmektedir. Türkiye’nin ise, 2009 yılın-da krizi daha fazla hissedeceği ileri sürülebilmektedir. Politik yapısı, bürokratik kapasitesi, eğitim düze-yi, yaygın değer yargıları nedeniyle Türkiye’nin ciddi bir kriz paketi hazırlayarak uygulamasına olanak görülmemektedir. Bu nedenlerle Türkiye’nin edilgen bir biçimde dünya ekonomisindeki gelişmelere göre çalkalanma ihtimali yüksektir. 2025-09-20T20:04:24Z 2009 2022-07-29 Review 1304-0391 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/5994 6 11 0 42 tr Muhasebe ve Finansman Dergisi (. e-Muhasebe ve Finansman Dergisi) application/pdf

S., Santa Cruz Institute for Particle Physics, Santa Cruz, United States Abraham, Nicola L., University of Sussex, Brighton, United Kingdom Abramowicz, Halina, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Thessaloniki, Greece Abreu, Henso, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel A search for heavy resonances decaying into a Higgs boson (H) and a new particle (X) is reported, utilizing 36.1 fb−1 of proton–proton collision data at s=13TeV collected during 2015 and 2016 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. The particle X is assumed to decay to a pair of light quarks, and the fully hadronic final state XH→qq¯′bb¯ is analysed. The search considers the regime of high XH resonance masses, where the X and H bosons are both highly Lorentz-boosted and are each reconstructed using a single jet with large radius parameter. A two-dimensional phase space of XH mass versus X mass is scanned for evidence of a signal, over a range of XH resonance mass values between 1 TeV and 4 TeV, and for X particles with masses from 50 GeV to 1000 GeV. All search results are consistent with the expectations for the background due to Standard Model processes, and 95% CL upper limits are set, as a function of XH and X masses, on the production cross-section of the XH→qq¯′bb¯ resonance. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:09:36Z 2018 Article 03702693 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2018.01.042 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/11677 10.1016/j.physletb.2018.01.042 2-s2.0-85046461175 24 45 779 en Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy Physics All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Accepted Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Elsevier B.V.

This study presents optimized multi-layer perceptron neural network (MLPNN) models, leveraging Bayesian optimization to refine architectural and training hyperparameters, including hidden layers, neurons, activation functions, standardization, and regularization terms. A comparative analysis of Bayesian acquisition functions—the probability of improvement (POI), lower confidence bound (LCB), expected improvement (EI), expected improvement plus (EIP), expected improvement per second plus (EIPSP), and expected improvement per second (EIPS)—demonstrated that the POI-MLPNN achieves the most accurate results, as evidenced by the lowest MAPE of 1.0923 % and exceptional consistency with an R-value of 0.99811. The EI-MLPNN and EIP-MLPNN models recorded the same outputs. The EI/EIP-MLPNN (R = 0.99668) model excels in consistency over LCB-MLPNN (R = 0.99529) and EIPSP-MLPNN (R = 0.99667). The optimized models offer a reliable, cost-efficient alternate for experimental and computational TPP analyses. Leveraging insights from these models enables better control over nanofluid TPPs in solar systems, enhancing energy conversion efficiency. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:40:16Z 2024 Article 25901230 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rineng.2024.102858 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/6851 10.1016/j.rineng.2024.102858 2-s2.0-85203523133 24 en Results in Engineering All Open Access Gold Open Access application/pdf Elsevier B.V.

In addition, we aimed to learn the thoughts of the students about the virus due to the uncertainties. Methods: The study was carried out online between April 30, May 5, 2020 with a questionnaire prepared with googleforms. For the study, all students studying at the Faculty of Medicine of Istanbul Yeni Yüzyıl University were called through class representatives and WhatsApp class groups. The questionnaire included sociodemographic information, knowledge and sources of information about the disease, to agreement degree the proposition whether covid 19 is produced as a biological weapon. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) and Impact of Events Scale-Revised (IES-R) were applied. Results: The total number of participants was 275 students. No student was infected with COVID-19 at the time of the survey. The presence of chronic disease in the participants was found to be a factor that increased anxiety (p = 0.01). Majority of participants (60.40%) stated that they agree with COVID-19 is a biological weapon. The mean scores of women ‘s total PSS and IES-R were higher than men. It was found that the families of the students had a lower monthly income than the minimum monthly wage is increasing the anxiety about getting COVID-19 infection and perceived stress. One-third of the students reported that sleep and appetite were impaired than the before pandemic. The announcements and website of Ministry of Health and the social media was the main source of information of the participants. Conclusions: It was found that medical students were highly worried about being infected with COVID-19. The scores obtained from the pre-clinic students’ anxiety to become infected with COVID-19, PSS and IES-R total scores were found to be significantly higher than their clinical students. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:52:55Z 2020 Article 1682024X https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.6.2985 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/10769 10.12669/pjms.36.6.2985 2-s2.0-85089698436 1355 1359 36 6 en Pakistan Journal of Medical Sciences All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Final Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Professional Medical Publications

Asymmetric Cost Behavior and Acquirer Returns: Evidence from U.S. Mergers Ugurlu, Mine Ozturk Danisman, Gamze Bilyay-Erdogan, Seda Vural-Yavas, Cigdem Bogazici University Bahcesehir University Kadir Has University Economics Cost asymmetry Merger performance Acquirer returns Cost anti-stickiness Sticky-costs MARKET GAINS MODEL ACQUISITIONS FIRMS This paper investigates the asymmetric behavior of the selling, general and administrative (SG&A) costs of acquirers, and reveals its effects on mergers & acquisitions (M&A) performance in a one-year event window. It is based on a sample of 6888 M&As completed in the U.S. during the 2003-2015 period and employs panel data regressions. The results show that 73% of the acquirers display asymmetric cost behavior. A significant negative relation is found between cost stickiness and acquirers' abnormal returns following the merger announcement. Competition in the market for corporate control is positively related with acquirer returns but exacerbates the negative effects of cost-stickiness on abnormal returns of acquirers. The acquirers' risk of default is significantly negatively related to the abnormal returns they generate. This adverse effect of default risk on returns is stronger for acquirers with anti-sticky costs. Acquirer risk offsets the positive effects of competition on returns. Acquirers with sticky costs have lower abnormal returns than those with anti-sticky costs in a one-year window. The present study contributes to the literature by revealing the asymmetric cost behavior of acquirers involved in merger activity during the last decade, and provides evidence for an alternative explanation for the lower abnormal returns of the acquiring firms. 2025-10-09T11:16:38Z 2019 Article 1303-099X http://dx.doi.org/10.21121/eab.536640 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/16863 10.21121/eab.536640 323 339 19 3 Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) WOS:000476769100002 en EGE ACADEMIC REVIEW Bronze EGE UNIV, FAC ECONOMICS & ADMIN SCIENCES

Currently, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation stands as the sole curative approach, although factors influencing patient outcomes remain insufficiently explored. Objectives: To elucidate the clinical, immunologic, and genetic profiles associated with MHC-II deficiency and identify prognostic indicators that affect survival rates. Methods: In this multicenter retrospective analysis, we gathered data from 35 patients with a diagnosis of MHC-II deficiency across 12 centers in Turkey. We recorded infection histories, gene mutations, immune cell subsets, and surface MHC-II expression on blood cells. We conducted survival analyses to evaluate the impact of various factors on patient outcomes. Results: Predominant symptoms observed were pneumonia (n = 29, 82.9%), persistent diarrhea (n = 26, 74.3%), and severe infections (n = 26, 74.3%). The RFXANK gene mutation (n = 9) was the most frequent, followed by mutations in RFX5 (n = 8), CIITA (n = 4), and RFXAP (n = 2) genes. Patients with RFXANK mutations presented with later onset and diagnosis compared with those with RFX5 mutations (P =.0008 and .0006, respectively), alongside a more significant diagnostic delay (P = .020). A notable founder effect was observed in five patients with a specific RFX5 mutation (c.616G>C). The overall survival rate for patients was 28.6% (n = 10), showing a significantly higher proportion in individuals with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (n = 8, 80%). Early death and higher CD8(+) T-cell counts were observed in patients with the RFX5 mutations compared with RFXANK-mutant patients (P = .006 and .009, respectively). Conclusions: This study delineates the genetic and clinical panorama of MHC-II deficiency, emphasizing the prevalence of specific gene mutations such as RFXANK and RFX5. These insights facilitate early diagnosis and prognosis refinement, significantly contributing to the management of MHC-II deficiency.

Therefore, a low cost, environmental friendly and high performance silicon oxide materials are required for an appropriate operation of any electronic gadget. In this work, we report on the physical and electrical properties of a suboxide layer of up to 1 μm, which was grown on silicon during the formation of a dielectric layer, namely the ammonium silicon hexafluoride. It is a stable oxide exhibiting light emission from 400 to 1700 nm offering scalable and cost-effective large area processing capability. The measurement results reveal interesting properties, which are required to be understood clearly before proceeding with any suitable application. The results have been analyzed using state-of-the-art physical and electrical characterization techniques such as ellipsometry, AFM, SEM, FTIR, photoluminescence lifetime and resistive switching measurements to determine structural, optical and electrical properties. At 300 K the carrier lifetime measurements reveal the lifetime values ranging from about few tens of picosecond up to 4500 picoseconds. Scanning probe analysis indicate a surface roughness of about 30 Å. Resistive memory forming was observed also in these layers at relatively low power thresholds. We provide a comprehensive description of the physical and electrical properties in order to clarify the origin of the observed features. The wavelength dependent real ε&lt;inf&gt;1&lt;/inf&gt;(ω) and the imaginary ε&lt;inf&gt;2&lt;/inf&gt;ω dielectric functions provided useful insights on optical properties. A lookout is given for the possible applications of this special SiOx dielectric oxide layer. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:40:32Z 2024 Article 20452322 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-63377-1 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/6872 10.1038/s41598-024-63377-1 2-s2.0-85194996351 14 1 38830980 en Scientific Reports All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Final Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Nature Research

Researchers show that females tend to be more cyber victims than males. There are different characteristics of cyber bullies. These are relational aggression, cognitive-affective deficits, and power and control. Cyber bullying causes serious results for both bullies and for the victims. There are some different prevention methods which can be grouped as in three categories: firstly, law, rules, and policies to control the use of media, secondly, education programs about using safe internet for children and youths and teaching them how to avoid these kinds of situations on the internet, and lastly, technological approaches. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:15:46Z 2022 Book Chapter 9781668454268 9781668454275 https://doi.org/10.4018/978-1-6684-5426-8.ch026 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/8652 10.4018/978-1-6684-5426-8.ch026 2-s2.0-85162130044 433 455 en All Open Access Hybrid Gold Open Access IGI Global

The Relevant Relationship Between Umbilical Cord Blood Gas and Acid Base Analysis and Dynamic Thiol (Sh)/Disulphide (S-S) Balance in Neonatal Babies with Different Perinatal Risks and Newborn Diseases Gurel, Selcuk Erel, Ozcan Bahcesehir University Ankara Yildirim Beyazit University Pediatrics Thiol Oxidative Stress Neonatal Cord Blood Gas Necrotizing Enterocolitis OXIDATIVE STRESS NECROTIZING ENTEROCOLITIS RESUSCITATION Background: Oxidative stress is a pathogenic stress factor in preterm infants. Dynamic thiol/disulphide balance has a critical role in antioxidant defense, detoxification, apoptosis, transcription and cellular signal transport mechanisms. Oxidant/antioxidant balance state is a process beginning before birth and premature infants are especially vulnerable to oxidative stress. Objectives: In this study, we aimed to evaluate dynamic thiol/disulphide homeostasis by umbilical blood gas analysis, compare term and preterm infants, evaluate its relation with Apgar score, perinatal risks with mother and occurrence of NEC (necrotizing enterocolitis), sepsis and ROP (Retinopathy of Prematurity). Methods: A total of 108 (51 female and 57 male) newborn infants were included in this prospective cohort study. Of them, 31 were term and 77 were preterm. Demographic variables, Apgar score, NEC, sepsis and ROP intervention data were collected. Disulfide, native thiol, total thiol, index1 (disulphide/native thiol x 100), index 2 (disulphide total thiol x 100) and index 3 (native thiolitotal thiol x 100) were calculated. Serum total ischemic modified albumin (IMA) and albumin were measured. Bloodgas analysis was performed within 2 minutes following birth. Results: Preterm infants had lower disulphide levels and indexi and 2 ratios, but higher index 3 ratios. Acidotic infants, indexi and 2 and disulphide levels were higher and index 3 was lower than patients with normal pH. Disulphide, index 1 and 2 were lower in patients taken to NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) compared to ones who were not, whereas index 3 values were higher, twenty one patients (19.4%) with scores < 7 had higher index 3 values at 5th minute. Disulphide levels, index 1 and 2 levels were lower in patients with NEC and index 3 levels were higher. Index 3 ratios were higher in septic infants. Index 3 was higher in patients born from preeclamptic mothers compared to ones without preeclampsia. Albumin levels were higher in patients with maternal placental anomalies. Conclusions: We believe that evaluation of thiol-disulphide homeostasis in preterm and term infants may be demonstrative for oxidant capacity of the newborn, hence the oxidative stress. 2025-10-09T11:10:29Z 2020 Article 2008-2142 2008-2150 http://dx.doi.org/10.5812/ijp.102793 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/16447 10.5812/ijp.102793 30 4 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000562095200006 en IRANIAN JOURNAL OF PEDIATRICS gold KOWSAR CORP

Electricity consumption, economic growth, urbanisation and trade nexus: empirical evidence from Iceland Faisal, Faisal Tursoy, Turgut Resatoglu, Nil Gunsel Berk, Niyazi Near East University Bahcesehir University Abdul Wali Khan University Economics Electricity consumption urbanisation ARDL trade MULTIVARIATE GRANGER CAUSALITY AUTOREGRESSIVE TIME-SERIES ENERGY-CONSUMPTION FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT CO2 EMISSIONS PANEL-DATA DEVELOPING-COUNTRIES ERROR-CORRECTION UNIT-ROOT COINTEGRATION This study empirically investigates the relationship between economic growth, electricity consumption, trade and urbanisation in Iceland, covering the period 1965-2013. The A.R.D.L. bounds testing approach to co-integration is applied to investigate the existence of the long-run relationship. The causality was investigated among the variables using Granger causality under the V.E.C.M. framework. The A.R.D.L. bounds testing approach to co-integration confirms a long-run relationship between electricity consumption and its regressors. The empirical estimation indicates the existence of a positive and statistically significant impact of economic growth, trade and urbanisation on electricity consumption for Iceland, not only in the long-run, but also in the short-run. Furthermore, electricity consumption converges to its long-run position by 45.63% speed of adjustment using the channels of urbanisation, trade and economic growth. The results of Granger causality imply the presence of a feedback causal relationship between urbanisation and electricity consumption in the long-run, thus validating the feedback hypothesis. However, economic growth is causing trade, thus validating the growth-led trade hypothesis in the short-run. Additionally, no causal relationship was found between electricity usage and economic growth, which confirms the neutrality hypothesis. Implementing the energy conservation policy will have no damaging effect on economic growth for Iceland. 2025-10-09T11:17:30Z 2018 Article 1331-677X 1848-9664 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/1331677X.2018.1438907 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/16907 10.1080/1331677X.2018.1438907 664 680 31 1 Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) WOS:000427700300002 en ECONOMIC RESEARCH-EKONOMSKA ISTRAZIVANJA hybrid Green Published ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD

Sixty-three patients with BD type I and 63 healthy controls were evaluated. Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis I Disorders, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, Young Mania Rating Scale, Experiences in Close Relationships Questionnaire II, Coping Orientation to Problems Experienced (COPE) inventory, and Social Functioning Scale were used. In the BD group, adaptive coping style scores and attachment avoidance scores were significantly lower than the control group, but mean scores of maladaptive coping styles were higher than the control group. Regression analysis showed that positive reinterpretation and growth, active coping, use of emotional social support, planning, religious activities, and mental disengagement subscales of COPE were significantly associated with social functioning. Psychosocial interventions to strengthen adaptive coping mechanisms may help improve the social functioning in patients with BD. 2025-10-09T12:03:19Z 2021 Article 0022-3018 1539-736X http://dx.doi.org/10.1097/NMD.0000000000001352 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/19039 10.1097/NMD.0000000000001352 578 584 209 8 34397758 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) WOS:000683701900008 en JOURNAL OF NERVOUS AND MENTAL DISEASE National Institute for Health Research Clinical Lectureship National Institute for Health Research [CL-2016-14-003] Funding Source: researchfish National Institute for Health Research Clinical Lectureship(National Institutes of Health Research (NIHR)) National Institute for Health Research(National Institutes of Health Research (NIHR)) Dr M.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the esthetic outcomes of our face-neck cases and the importance of adding ancillary procedures based on individual assessment. We conducted a retrospective review of 203 face-neck cases, basically following the endoscopic and open principles of Vasconez. The ancillary procedures added in selected cases included genioplasty, augmentation with autologous facial superficial fascial tissue or fat injections, upper lip shortening, perioral dermabrasion, ear lobe reduction, buccal fat reduction, mentum lifting, and upper orbital rim shaving. Complications, postoperative follow-up, esthetic outcomes, and contribution of the ancillary procedures were recorded. Our esthetic face complication rates were comparable to those of previous studies and included chemosis, hematoma, cyst on the eyelid suture line, skin sloughing, scar abnormalities (hypertrophic scar and widespread scar), pseudoparalysis of the marginal mandibular branch, temporary hypoesthesia of the forehead, irregularity of the glabella after endoscopy, and asymmetry. We did not observe any comorbidity owing to genioplasty and augmentation with autologous tissue except for a case with infection after fat injection. More improvement can be obtained with careful planning of ancillary procedures in face-neck lifting surgery. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:07:13Z 2018 Article 00257974 15365964 https://doi.org/10.1097/MD.0000000000012333 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/11549 10.1097/MD.0000000000012333 97 39 30278509 en Medicine (United States) All Open Access Gold Open Access Green Final Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf Lippincott Williams and Wilkins kathiest.clai@apta.org

Effective heat transfer management is vital in modern industries, as it supports essential processes across various sectors. Methods: This study investigates the effect of copper nanoparticle volume fraction on flow behavior and thermal dynamics in a 3D lid-driven cavity. This enclosure was a controlled environment filled with phase change materials, designed to optimize thermal energy management. The system configuration comprised a wavy bottom wall and an adaptable upper wall, allowing for dynamic adjustments during the simulation. The results show that as the volume ratio of copper nanoparticles increased from 1 % to 3 %, the steady heat transfer process in the simulated nanoparticles also increased. Increasing the volume ratio from 1 % to 3 % resulted in a decrease in the maximum density of nanoparticles, which decreased from 0.0152 to 0.0146 atom/Å3. Additionally, this increase led to a rise in thermal conductivity from 1.26 to 1.45 W/m·K and in heat flux from 8.26 to 9.95 W/m2. Significant Findings: The study demonstrates that optimizing the volume fraction of Cu-NPs in PCMs can significantly enhance thermal conductivity and heat flux, offering potential improvements in thermal energy storage systems. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:29:10Z 2025 Article 26660164 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cscee.2025.101181 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/6294 10.1016/j.cscee.2025.101181 2-s2.0-86000443322 11 en Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering All Open Access Gold Open Access application/pdf Elsevier Ltd

Exclusive dimuon production in ultraperipheral Pb plus Pb collisions at √SNN=5.02 TeV with ATLAS Physics, Nuclear PROTON-PROTON COLLISIONS PARTICLE-PRODUCTION ION COLLISIONS GAMMA-GAMMA DETECTOR PHOTOPRODUCTION PERFORMANCE E(+)E(-) PHYSICS PHOTON Exclusive dimuon production in ultraperipheral collisions (UPC), resulting from photon-photon interactions in the strong electromagnetic fields of colliding high-energy lead nuclei, PbPb(gamma gamma) -> mu(+) mu(-) (Pb-(*Pb-)(()*())), is studied using L-int = 0.48 nb(-1) of root S-NN = 5.02 TeV lead-lead collision data at the LHC with the ATLAS detector. Dimuon pairs are measured in the fiducial region p(T,mu) > 4 GeV, vertical bar eta(mu)vertical bar < 2.4, invariant m(mu mu) > 10 GeV, and p(T,mu mu) <2 GeV. The primary background from single-dissociative processes is extracted from the data using a template fitting technique. Differential cross sections are presented as a function of m(mu mu), absolute pair rapidity (vertical bar y(mu mu)vertical bar), scattering angle in the dimuon rest frame (vertical bar cos v*(mu mu)vertical bar), and the colliding photon energies. The total cross section of the UPC gamma gamma -> mu(+) mu(-) process in the fiducial volume is measured to be sigma(mu mu)(fid) = 34.1 +0.3(stat.)+0.7(syst.) mu b. Generally good agreement is found with calculations from STARlight, which incorporate the leading-order Breit-Wheeler process with no final-state effects, albeit differences between the measurements and theoretical expectations are observed. In particular, the measured cross sections at larger vertical bar y(mu mu)vertical bar are found to be about 10-20% larger in data than in the calculations, suggesting the presence of larger fluxes of photons in the initial state. Modification of the dimuon cross sections in the presence of forward and/or backward neutron production is also studied and is found to be associated with a harder incoming photon spectrum, consistent with expectations. 2025-10-09T17:29:04Z 2021 Article 2469-9985 2469-9993 http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.104.024906 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/20310 10.1103/PhysRevC.104.024906 104 2 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000686912100002 en PHYSICAL REVIEW C Green Submitted gold Green Accepted ANPCyT, Argentina YerPhI, Armenia ARC, Australia FWF, Austria ANAS, Azerbaijan SSTC, Belarus CNPq, Brazil FAPESP, Brazil NSERC, Canada NRC, Canada CFI, Canada CERN ANID, Chile CAS, China MOST, China NSFC, China COLCIENCIAS, Colombia MSMT CR, Czech Republic MPO CR, Czech Republic VSC CR, Czech Republic DNRF, Denmark DNSRC, Denmark IN2P3-CNRS, France CEA-DRF/IRFU, France SRNSFG, Georgia BMBF, Germany HGF, Germany MPG, Germany GSRT, Greece RGC, China Hong Kong SAR, China ISF, Israel Benoziyo Center, Israel INFN, Italy MEXT, Japan JSPS, Japan CNRST, Morocco NWO, Netherlands RCN, Norway MNiSW, Poland NCN, Poland FCT, Portugal MNE/IFA, Romania JINR, Russian Federation MES of Russia, Russian Federation NRC KI, Russian Federation MESTD, Serbia MSSR, Slovakia ARRS, Slovenia MIZS, Slovenia DST/NRF, South Africa MICINN, Spain SRC, Sweden Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden SERI, Switzerland SNSF, Switzerland Canton of Geneva, Switzerland MOST, Taiwan TAEK, Turkey STFC, United Kingdom DOE, United States of America NSF, United States of America BCKDF, Canada CANARIE, Canada Compute Canada, Canada CRC, Canada IVADO, Canada Beijing Municipal Science & Technology Commission, China COST, European Union ERC, European Union ERDF, European Union Horizon 2020, European Union Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions, European Union Investissements d'Avenir Labex, France ANR, France DFG, Germany AvH Foundation, Germany Greek NSRF, Greece BSF-NSF, Israel GIF, Israel La Caixa Banking Foundation, Spain CERCA Programme Generalitat de Catalunya, Spain Goran Gustafssons Stiftelse, Sweden The Royal Society, United Kingdom Leverhulme Trust, United Kingdom BMWFW, Austria Canton of Bern, Switzerland Investissements d'Avenir Idex, France Herakleitos program -

Although containers have many advantages, such as flexibility, readiness, easy configurability, scalability and low resource consumption, previous researches showed that there are momentous decrements in network performance in containerized cluster environments. Yielded packet sizes and data transfer methods play important roles in the network performance for the networking solutions used in container clusters. As different applications apply different packet sizes and transfer methods, it is of the essence to find and use the best performing networking solution according to application needs. Hence, it is quite important to identify the most convenient container networking solution, especially in production environments. This research analyzed the throughput and latency at varying message sizes on bulk and HTTP-like data transfer methods for container cluster networking solutions, which are Libnetwork, Flannel, Calico, Weave and Open Virtual Networking for Open vSwitch. Furthermore, it compared the performance of cluster networking solutions with a native host. As a result of the experiments, Open Virtual Networking for Open vSwitch and Calico were found to be the most adequate solutions for production environments with the highest throughput and minimum latency values depending on selected message sizes and transfer methods. In addition, a bare-metal host generally outperforms all the container networking solutions except HTTP-like transfer throughput results at a large message size. Hence, this study also demonstrates the offloading impact in container networking solutions. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:47:24Z 2020 Conference Paper https://doi.org/10.1145/3411016.3411019 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/10426 10.1145/3411016.3411019 2-s2.0-85092718368 10 17 Kuala Lumpur 2nd International Conference on Industrial Control Network and System Engineering Research, ICNSER 2020 en ACM International Conference Proceeding Series Association for Computing Machinery

Broken Rotor Bar Detection via Wavelet Packet Decomposition of Motor Current Eren, Levent Cekic, Yalcin Devaney, Michael J. Bahcesehir University Bahcesehir University University of Missouri System University of Missouri Columbia Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Induction Motors Wavelet Packet Decomposition Motor Current Signature Analysis Broken Rotor Bars CURRENT SIGNATURE ANALYSIS BEARING DAMAGE DETECTION INDUCTION MACHINES FAULT-DETECTION NEURAL-NETWORKS STATOR DIAGNOSIS METHODOLOGY SENSORLESS TRANSFORM In this paper, discrete wavelet packet decomposition (DWPD) of induction motor current is proposed for detecting broken rotor bar conditions. Good frequency separation is essential for accurate detection of broken rotor bars since it is difficult to separate the rotor bar frequency components from the fundamental supply frequency component at rated speeds. The proposed method provides good frequency separation at a very low computational complexity. The motor current signal is first notch filtered to suppress the power system fundamental frequency. Then, the motor current is decomposed into equally spaced frequency bands by using all-pass implementation of elliptic IIR half-band filter. Next, baseline shifting of wavelet packet coefficients (WPCs) is applied to remove the filtering distortion caused by other harmonics. Finally, energy level of each frequency band is calculated by determining rms values from WPCs of associated frequency bands. The changes in the energy levels of frequency bands in which broken rotor bar related current frequencies lie are monitored to defect motor fault conditions.

Natural killer (NK) cells are one of the major immunoregulatory cell groups of the innate immune system, but their role in BD pathogenesis is not well documented. Objectives: We aimed to investigate the role of NK cell subsets and their cytokine secretion and cytotoxic activity in patients with BD. Patients and methods: The study group consisted of BD patients who had only mucocutaneous involvement, and they were compared with healthy subjects. BD patients were divided into two groups according to their frequencies of oral ulcerations. NK cell cytotoxicity was determined using CD107a expression and a CFSE-based cytotoxicity test. Expression of NK cell receptors and surface markers and the intracellular IL-5, IL-10, IL-17, and IFN-γ levels in CD16+ NK cells were assessed by flow cytometry. Results: Although the cytokine secretion pattern was different, no difference was obtained in cytotoxic activity, expression of activatory receptors, or degranulation of NK cells. Conclusion: Increases in NK1/NK2 ratio and CD16+IFN-γ+ NK1 cells might support the idea of a biased IFN-γ dominant immune response in the mucocutaneous involvement of BD pathogenesis. Although the cytokine secretion pattern was different, no difference was obtained in cytotoxic activity, expression of activatory receptors, or degranulation of NK cells. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:17:33Z 2017 Article 08820139 15324311 https://doi.org/10.1080/08820139.2017.1288240 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/12074 10.1080/08820139.2017.1288240 2-s2.0-85017113861 419 432 46 4 28388249 en Immunological Investigations Taylor and Francis Ltd healthcare.enquiries@informa.com

The severity of bleeding in people with hemophilia depends on the deficient factor level. Treatment includes coagulation factor concentrates, nonreplacement preparations, gene therapies, and physiotherapy, whereby bleeding is prevented, symptoms are reduced, and the quality of life is improved. Closed kinetic chain exercises improve joint stability and neuromuscular control by stabilizing the proximal base, making them favored in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Proprioceptive exercise training improves the sensorimotor system’s adaptability and injury prevention through tailored programs involving progressively complex movements and surfaces. Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of closed kinetic chain exercises and proprioceptive exercise training on improving balance and walking in people with hemophilia. Methods: This study is a 3-arm, parallel-group randomized controlled trial with 63 people with hemophilia aged 13-25 years who meet the inclusion criteria. The primary outcome measures are medio-lateral swing, anterior-posterior swing, walking speed, and Hemophilia Joint Health Score. Secondary outcome measures are kinematic assessment of gait, one-leg stand test, 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) test, proprioception assessment, and the Functional Independence Score in Hemophilia. Participants will be evaluated with the Biodex balance system for postural sway, 10-meters walking test for gait speed, Hemophilia Joint Health Score for joint health, Kinovea 2D motion analysis for kinematic evaluation of gait, one-leg stand test for balance measurement, 6MWD for functional capacity, digital goniometer for proprioception, and Functional Independence Score in Hemophilia for functional independence. Participants will be randomly assigned to a closed kinetic chain exercise group, a proprioceptive exercise group, or a control group. All participants in exercise training groups will receive a 30-minute education session on joint protection techniques and energy conservation prior to the first exercise session. Closed kinetic chain exercises will include progressive lower limb exercises of approximately 45 minutes each session. Proprioceptive exercise training will focus on vibration training, reposition exercises and proprioception exercises will be administered to increase proprioceptive input for the same duration as the other group. The control group will receive no intervention. All participants will undergo 24 exercise sessions (2 days a week for 12 weeks). After the treatment, the initial measurements will be repeated. Results: This study began in September 2023 and is scheduled to be completed in May 2025. A total of 34 participants have completed the study to date. Conclusions: This study will investigate the effects of 2 different exercises on functional parameters in people with hemophilia. The effects of different exercise protocols on parameters such as postural sway, walking speed, and joint health will be evaluated. It is predicted that both exercise methods may have positive effects on balance and gait. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:37:53Z 2025 Article 19290748 https://doi.org/10.2196/66770 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/6734 10.2196/66770 2-s2.0-105004771525 14 en JMIR Research Protocols All Open Access Gold Open Access application/pdf JMIR Publications Inc.

Consistent neural network empirical physical formula constructions for nonlinear scattering intensities of dye-doped nematic liquid crystals with ultraviolet pump laser-driven Fredericksz threshold shifts Polat, Ömer Yildiz, Nihat Akkoyun, Serkan Polat, Ömer, Department of Science, Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi, Istanbul, Turkey Yildiz, Nihat, Department of Physics, Cumhuriyet Üniversitesi, Sivas, Turkey Akkoyun, Serkan, Department of Physics, Cumhuriyet Üniversitesi, Sivas, Turkey Azo And Anthraquinone Dyes Empirical Physical Formula Fredericksz Transition Nematic Liquid Crystal Neural Network Scattering Intensity Ultraviolent Laser Aromatic Compounds Feedforward Neural Networks Ketones Liquid Crystals Liquids Network Layers Neural Networks Nonlinear Optics Optical Properties Pumping (laser) Ultraviolet Lasers Anthraquinone Dye Dye Doped Nematic Liquid Crystals Empirical Physical Formula Fredericksz Transition Illumination Intensity Molecular Nonlinear Optics Nonlinear Physical Phenomenon Scattering Intensity Nematic Liquid Crystals Aromatic compounds Feedforward neural networks Ketones Liquid crystals Liquids Network layers Neural networks Nonlinear optics Optical properties Pumping (laser) Ultraviolet lasers Anthraquinone dye Dye doped nematic liquid crystals Empirical physical formula Fredericksz transition Illumination intensity Molecular nonlinear optics Nonlinear physical phenomenon Scattering intensity Nematic liquid crystals Intrinsic high nonlinearity in experimentally measured laser scattering intensities poses significant difficulties in analyzing various molecular and optical properties of nematic liquid crystals (NLCs). In this respect, as we theoretically proved in a previous paper, universal nonlinear function approximator layered feedforward neural network (LFNN) can be applied to construct consistent empirical physical formulas (EPFs) for nonlinear physical phenomena. The novelty of this paper is that, by using our previous conference paper data (literature data or simply data for short) for He-Ne probe laser illumination nonlinear scattering intensities of dye-doped NLCs with ultraviolet pump laser-driven Fredericksz threshold (FT) shifts, we constructed definitive LFNN-EPFs for these illumination intensities of nonlinear scattering exhibiting FT shifts. The dyes used in the literature data were methyl red (MR) azo and disperse red (DR) anthraquinone. The LFNN-EPFs fitted the data very well. Moreover, magnificent LFNN test set forecastings over previously unseen data confirmed the consistent LFNN-EPFs inferences of the intensities of scattering. The LFNN-EPFs properly extracted the FT threshold shifts, as well as revealing the intensity dependencies on the kind of dye used. We, therefore, conclude the LFNN consistently infers nonlinear physical laws governing the NLC scattering data. Provided that sufficient scattering intensity data is available, these nonlinear physical laws embedded in LFNN-EPFs may potentially be useful for investigating various NLC molecular structure parameters in molecular nonlinear optics domain. This knowledge may be applicable in developing new optical materials. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:09:45Z 2018 Article 00304026 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijleo.2017.12.093 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/11689 10.1016/j.ijleo.2017.12.093 2-s2.0-85039734828 204 210 158 en Optik Elsevier GmbH journals@elsevier.com

Our study aims to determine the ideal cut-off value for the HCT-CI score, which can be effective in showing overall survival in patients with MM undergoing ASCT. Methods: The files of all MM patients with ASCT between January 2015 and December 2020 were retrospectively scanned. The X-tile model was used to determine the cut-off values of the HCT-CI score. Survival probabilities were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier estimator. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Patients were divided into two categories according to HCT-CI. Score ≤6 was defined as low-risk (n=93, 81.6%), and score &gt;6 was defined as high-risk (n=21, 18.4%). The low-risk group had one-year and two-year OS rates of 96.7% and 86.9%, respectively, while the high-risk group had rates of 69.9% and 40.3% (p&lt;0.001). In multivariate regression analysis, only being older than 70 years and having a HCT-CI &gt;6 were found to be significant, with an HR of 3,718 and 5,543, respectively. Conclusion: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation - comorbidity index score &gt;6 can aid physicians in deciding whether to perform ASCT in MM patients and predict the overall survival of those patients. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:12:40Z 2022 Article 21472688 13020072 https://doi.org/10.4274/haseki.galenos.2022.8668 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/8515 10.4274/haseki.galenos.2022.8668 2-s2.0-85145068531 468 475 60 5 en Haseki Tip Bulteni All Open Access Gold Open Access application/pdf Galenos Publishing House

Applying X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the Rietveld method, structural analysis showed that Co and Cu replace Zn substitutionally yielding ZCCO single phase. The refined u-fractional coordinate of Zn increases monotonically by an annealing temperature from 0.3546 at 500°C reaching 0.3722 at 800°C, very near from the ideal value 0.375. The Zn tetrahedrons become more symmetric and the distortion is gradually relieved by annealing up to 800°C. Annealing at 900°C introduces tetrahedron distortion in an opposite way. The zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) magnetization versus the temperature at different applied fields and the magnetization versus the applied field at different temperatures were carried out. The system exhibits a ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. As the annealing temperature increases from 550 to 900°C, the saturation magnetization at 300 K increases from 0.0507 to 0.1088 emu/g. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media New York. © 2013 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:38:57Z 2013 Article 15571947 15571939 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10948-013-2197-1 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/13136 10.1007/s10948-013-2197-1 2-s2.0-84886794297 3487 3493 26 12 en Journal of Superconductivity and Novel Magnetism

Ophthalmology is an area of medicine that deals with the eye and vision. In many remote areas, people do not have access to ophthalmologists, and many go blind for preventable reasons. Awareness about eye health and early diagnosis is essential in eye health to prevent blindness. An artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm that can quickly detect eye disease is valuable and necessary. Anterior segment eye images are essential and easily obtained without additional equipment. In this study, I aimed to build an artificial intelligence algorithm to detect eye diseases from mobile photographs. I extracted and combined anterior segment eye photos from various publicly available datasets and labeled 3938 images as Normal (healthy) and 1094 images as Abnormal (unhealthy). I increased the data diversity by augmenting it with random flips and rotations: and then prepared it for AI training. I re-trained the algorithms trained in ImageNet Visual Recognition Challenge with the transfer learning method. I compared custom and pre-trained models. After evaluating the performance of the models with the test set, 98% accuracy and 97% F1 score were obtained with the Inception-ResNetV2 model. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:05:22Z 2023 Conference Paper https://doi.org/10.1145/3591569.3591590 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/8111 10.1145/3591569.3591590 2-s2.0-85167794853 123 131 Hybrid, Da Nang 8th International Conference on Intelligent Information Technology, ICIIT 2023 en Association for Computing Machinery

This is due to the outstanding properties of the one-dimensional SiCNMs such as high mechanical properties, high hardness, good chemical inertness and excellent electronic properties. In this paper, we reported the successful synthesis of one-dimensional SiCNMs from blend of SiO2 particles with two types of CNTs, namely MWCNTs and SWCNTs by using microwave heating and the effect of types of CNTs on the synthesis of one-dimensional SiCNMs. The result of x-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermo-gravimetric analysis revealed that high purity of beta-SiC nanotube was obtained from blend of SiO2 particles and MWCNTs while solid SiC nanowire was synthesized from blend of SiO2 particles and SWCNTs and associated with the presence of residual of unreacted SiO2 particles. This clearly shows that types of one dimensional SiCNMs (hollow or solid) can be controlled by using different types of CNTs and thus this study proposed a high efficiency microwave heating method for the synthesis of one-dimensional SiCNMs with controllable morphology. 2025-10-09T11:46:26Z 2019 Article 1293-2558 1873-3085 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.solidstatesciences.2019.106023 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/18352 10.1016/j.solidstatesciences.2019.106023 98 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000504047900027 en SOLID STATE SCIENCES Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Higher Education, and Malaysia [FRGS 9003-00441] Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Higher Education, and Malaysia This work was supported by the Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Higher Education, and Malaysia [FRGS 9003-00441].

Afet risk haritaları amacı doğrultusunda ölçeklendirilerek karar vericilerin afetin boyutunu daha kolay anlayabilmesi sağlanacaktır. Böylece kısa sürede etkin müdahale sağlanarak afet ile paralel gelişebilecek ikincil afetlerin etkisi de azaltılacaktır. Afet sonrası ihbar sistemi telefon, faks, vs. ile gelen, adrese veya bölgeye dayalı veriler, diğer afet verileri ile (deprem, sel, yangın, heyelan vb.) değerlendirilerek afetin ilerlemesi ve yapılan iyileştirmeler süreç yönetimi mantığı ile izlenip yönetilebilecektir. Değişen verilere bağlı olarak afet sonucu oluşan risk değişimleri görülebilecektir. Sonuç olarak Bütünleşik Afet Etki ve İhtiyaç Tespit Sistemi, risk analizleri sonucu hesaplanan can kaybı, yaralı sayısı, üstyapı ve altyapı hasarı ve buna paralel olarak lojistik ihtiyaçların daha gerçekçi belirlenmesi, imkânların daha doğru kullanılmasını olumlu yönde etkilemesi hedeflenmektedir. Aim of this thesis study is to find out a methodology to design a system which will determine the effect and impact of the disaster, and will guide the decision makers before – during – after disaster with the help of the latest updates in the computer and GIS technology. Scenarios generated according to the expected risks before the disaster, damage distribution calculated with the actual information is compared with data from the site and the most suitable disaster plan can be applied with the updated damage distribution and effect. With this system, determining the number of dead, injured people and the ones who need immediate housing is going to be easier and transportation of rescue teams and relief supplies by using the most convenient route; thus saving as much as possible people from debris will be provided. Disaster risk maps that are scaled according to its purpose, will help the decision makers to understand the magnitude of the disaster. Thus, the effect of the secondary disasters will be lowered that may come up in parallel to the existing disaster. Post disaster data from the site (telephone, fax, info from address) will be assessed with existing other disaster data (earthquake, flood, fire etc.); the progress of disaster and improvements will be managed with process management logic. With regards to the fluctuant information, the changes in risks will be monitored after disaster. As a result, Integrated Disaster Impact and Necessity Detection System aims to have a positive effect while determining the number of lives lost, injuries, superstructure and infrastructure damage and logistic needs that may come up in parallel to all of these information, and using the opportunities effectively. 2024-07-16T13:15:06Z 2024-07-16T13:15:06Z 2014-08 Thesis https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/1354 other application/pdf Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü

We evaluated patients with stage II (FIGO 1988) endometrial cancer operated in our clinic in terms of treatment modalities, surgico-pathological factors, recurrence rates and patterns. Fifty-three patients with 1988 FIGO stage II endometrial cancer who underwent staging surgery between January 1993 and December 2012 were included in this study. The mean age of the patients was 57 years. Cervical invasion couldn’t be detected in the preoperative pelvic examination in 47 patients (88.7%). Thirty-eight patients received simple hysterectomy (SH) and 15 patients had radical hysterectomy (RH). All patients received pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy. Forty-two patients took adjuvant radiotherapy. The median follow-up time of the patient population was 39 months (range 1-139 months). Recurrence was observed in four patients. There was no statistically significant difference between the RH and SH groups in terms of recurrence (p= 0.53). Advanced age, deep myometrial invasion and the lower number of harvested lymph nodes were associated with recurrence. Systemic adjuvant therapy may be involved in the first-line treatment plan in order to prevent distant failures, since they continue to be responsible for the most of the recurrences and mortality despite radical surgeries and different protocols of adjuvant radiotherapy. © 2015 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:36:34Z 2014 Article 1306133X https://doi.org/10.4999/uhod.14424 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/13011 10.4999/uhod.14424 2-s2.0-84919961839 239 246 24 4 en UHOD - Uluslararasi Hematoloji-Onkoloji Dergisi All Open Access Bronze Open Access application/pdf UHOD - Uluslararasi Hematoloji Onkoloji Dergisi uhod@uhod.org 4 Cadde, 56 Sokak, No: 49-E Hilal Cankaya, Ankara 06550

The current study aimed at investigating affective ToM abilities within different stages of AD (mild AD dementia [ADD], mild cognitive impairment [MCI], and subjective cognitive impairment [SCI]), together with its relationship with neuropsychological functioning. Eighty-one participants were tested with two different ToM tasks (Faux Pas Recognition Test [FPR] and Reading Mind in the Eyes Test [RMET]) and tests of attention, executive functions, episodic memory, and facial recognition. Our results showed two different affective ToM profiles in AD continuum: while ADD group performed poorly on both tasks of ToM, MCI group displayed deteriorated performance on RMET but not on FPR. In addition, ToM performance was significantly related to episodic memory and verbal fluency within the overall sample. These findings suggest that impairment in the decoding process of emotional cues could begin even in the prodromal stage of AD. In contrast, the reasoning process of emotional information, as measured with FPR, could be preserved until the dementia stage. Moreover, the relation of affective ToM with amnestic functions and verbal abilities could provide evidence of a domain-general ToM impairment in AD. © 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T15:45:46Z 2020 Article 17486653 17486645 https://doi.org/10.1111/jnp.12207 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/10339 10.1111/jnp.12207 2-s2.0-85082195030 399 415 14 3 32212244 en Journal of Neuropsychology All Open Access Green Accepted Open Access Green Open Access application/pdf John Wiley and Sons Ltd cs-journals@wiley.co.uk

ULUSLARARASI HUKUKTA HAKKANİYETİN NORMATİF NİTELİĞİ Pirim Kızılca, Ceren Zeynep Bahçeşehir Üniversitesi Hukuk Teknik bir bakış açısı ile yaklaşılmadığında hukuk, adalet ve hakkaniyet kavramlarının her biri bir diğeri ışığında tanımlanacaktır. Oysa hukuk ve hakkaniyet arasındaki bağ, teknik hukuk eğitimi almış ve özellikle pozitivist ekolün rahle-i tedrisinden geçmiş hukukçu için bu kadar kuvvetli olmayabilir. Zira pozitivist hukukçunun temel aldığı hukuk tanımı uyarınca hukukun amacı adaleti sağlamak değil, hukuk kişileri arasında var olan ilişkileri düzenlemektir. Bu tespit uluslararası hukuk için de geçerlidir. Nitekim uluslararası hukukta hakkaniyetin normatif niteliği geçmişte olduğu kadar günümüzde de ciddi tartışmalara sebebiyet vermekte ve önemli fikir ayrılıklarının konusunu teşkil etmektedir. Söz konusu çalışma hakkaniyetin uluslararası hukuk çatısı altında normatif bir nitelik taşıyıp taşımadığını, daha açık bir ifade ile bir uluslararası hukuk kaynağı olup olmadığını tartışmaktadır. Bu çerçevede, uluslararası hukukta hakkaniyetin mahiyeti, içeriği ve türleri incelenmekte, hakkaniyetin bir uluslararası hukuk kaynağı olup olmadığı sorunsalında yol gösterici nitelikteki uluslararası içtihada değinilmekte ve hakkaniyetin bağımsız bir uluslararası hukuk kaynağı olarak kabul edilmesinin doğuracağı sonuçlar değerlendirilmektedir. 2025-09-20T20:02:34Z 2016 2022-07-29 Research Article 1309-6826 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/5677 169 201 1 26 tr Türkiye Adalet Akademisi Dergisi application/pdf

We draw upon the notion that how language teacher candidates from Türkiye (LTCTs) situate themselves contextually pertain to their professional learning and practices and future language teacher identity. Focusing on their telecollaboration discourse, we specifically examine these LTCTs’ construction of Türkiye's multiculturalism through an oversimplistic and stereotypical East-West binary. We analyzed the data using Fairclough's three-dimensional CDA model. We found that when discussing multiculturalism, the LTCTs socio-politically constructed framing of Türkiye's East and West has been influenced by meso level institutional policies and macro level nation-state ideologies. Next, our findings showed that the LTCTs avoided controversial sociopolitical issues when talking specifically about the East refraining from any connotations of separatist discourses. We suggest teachers educators foster critical analysis within teacher education programs to help understand and prepare teacher candidates for their future practice. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:47:09Z 2024 Article 08985898 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.linged.2024.101305 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/7163 10.1016/j.linged.2024.101305 2-s2.0-85192201254 81 en Linguistics and Education Elsevier Ltd

Security-level classification for confidential documents by using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems Alparslan, Erdem Karahoca, Adem Bahsi, Hayretdin Bahcesehir University Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK) Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence Computer Science, Theory & Methods document classification expert systems ANFIS SVM Turkish NLP ROC The security-level detection of a confidential document is a vital task for organizations to protect their confidential information. Diverse classification rules and techniques are being applied by human experts. Increasing number of confidential information in organizations is making difficult to classify all the documents carefully with human effort. The recommended frameworks in this study classify the internal documents of TUBITAK UEKAE (National Research Institute of Electronics and Cryptology of Turkey) by using classification algorithms naive Bayes, support vector machines (SVMs) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference systems (ANFISs). A hybrid approach involving support vector classifiers and adaptive neuro-fuzzy classifiers exposes the most successful accuracy rates of expert system classification. This study also states preprocessing tasks required for document classification with natural language processing. To represent term-document relations, a recommended metric TF-IDF was chosen to construct a weight matrix. Agglutinative nature of Turkish documents is handled by Turkish stemming algorithms. At the end of the article, some experimental results and success metrics are projected with accuracy rates and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. 2025-10-09T11:30:04Z 2013 Article 0266-4720 1468-0394 http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1468-0394.2012.00634.x https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/17461 10.1111/j.1468-0394.2012.00634.x 233 242 30 3 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000321893900005 en EXPERT SYSTEMS WILEY

The three computerized model compared to investigate the differences are: 1 .Insul based on the sound transmission theories and Sharp Model 2. Acousys employing the transfer matrix and the windowing techniques, 3. FMulay based on the improved impedance model for the finite size structures. 65 different building elements composed of different configurations were employed in the computations which resulted in terms of both single number rating unit (R<inf>w</inf>) and the frequency domain sound transmission losses. Statistical analysis of the results indicated that the Acousys and FMulay are better correlated. When the calculated data was compared with the earlier experimental results to provide verification, the Insul yielded slightly better compatibility with the laboratory data at high frequencies whereas the lower frequency results indicate similarity to those of the other two models. © 2013 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T16:41:34Z 2012 Conference Paper https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/13309 2-s2.0-84876257411 1974 1981 3 Vilnius 19th International Congress on Sound and Vibration 2012, ICSV 2012 en

Search for dark matter in association with an energetic photon in pp collisions at √s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector Physics, Particles & Fields Dark matter Hadron-Hadron scattering (experiments) LHC A search for dark matter is conducted in final states containing a photon and missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13 TeV. The data, collected during 2015-2018 by the ATLAS experiment at the CERN LHC, correspond to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb(-1). No deviations from the predictions of the Standard Model are observed and 95% confidence-level upper limits between 2.45 fb and 0.5 fb are set on the visible cross section for contributions from physics beyond the Standard Model, in different ranges of the missing transverse momentum. The results are interpreted as 95% confidence-level limits in models where weakly interacting dark-matter candidates are pair-produced via an s-channel axial-vector or vector mediator. Dark-matter candidates with masses up to 415 (580) GeV are excluded for axial-vector (vector) mediators, while the maximum excluded mass of the mediator is 1460 (1470) GeV. In addition, the results are expressed in terms of 95% confidence-level limits on the parameters of a model with an axion-like particle produced in association with a photon, and are used to constrain the coupling g(aZ gamma) of an axion-like particle to the electroweak gauge bosons. 2025-10-09T17:06:54Z 2021 Article 1029-8479 http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/JHEP02(2021)226 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/20033 10.1007/JHEP02(2021)226 2 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000625548600001 en JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS Green Submitted gold Green Accepted ANPCyT, Argentina YerPhI, Armenia ARC, Australia BMWFW, Austria FWF, Austria ANAS, Azerbaijan SSTC, Belarus CNPq, Brazil FAPESP, Brazil NSERC, Canada NRC, Canada CFI, Canada CERN ANID, Chile CAS, China MOST, China NSFC, China COLCIENCIAS, Colombia MSMT CR, Czech Republic MPO CR, Czech Republic VSC CR, Czech Republic DNRF, Denmark DNSRC, Denmark IN2P3-CNRS, France CEA-DRF/IRFU, France SRNSFG, Georgia BMBF, Germany HGF, Germany MPG, Germany GSRT, Greece RGC, China Hong Kong SAR, China ISF, Israel Benoziyo Center, Israel INFN, Italy MEXT, Japan JSPS, Japan CNRST, Morocco NWO, Netherlands RCN, Norway MNiSW, Poland NCN, Poland FCT, Portugal MNE/IFA, Romania JINR MES of Russia, Russian Federation NRC KI, Russian Federation MESTD, Serbia MSSR, Slovakia ARRS, Slovenia MIZS, Slovenia DST/NRF, South Africa MICINN, Spain SRC, Sweden Wallenberg Foundation, Sweden SERI, Switzerland SNSF, Switzerland Canton of Bern, Switzerland Canton of Geneva, Switzerland MOST, Taiwan TAEK, Turkey STFC, United Kingdom DOE, United States of America NSF, United States of America BCKDF, Canada CANARIE, Canada Compute Canada, Canada CRC, Canada IVADO, Canada Beijing Municipal Science AMP Technology Commission, China COST, European Union ERC, European Union ERDF, European Union Horizon 2020, European Union Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions, European Union Investissements d'Avenir Labex, France Investissements d'Avenir Idex, France ANR, France DFG, Germany AvH Foundation, Germany Herakleitos, Greece Thales programme -

Toward Understanding the Impact of Dimerization Interfaces in Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Erol, Ismail Cosut, Bunyemin Durdagi, Serdar Gebze Technical University Bahcesehir University Bahcesehir University Chemistry, Medicinal Chemistry, Multidisciplinary Computer Science, Information Systems Computer Science, Interdisciplinary Applications NEUTRAL ANTIHYPERTENSIVE OXAZALONE PROTEIN-COUPLED RECEPTORS CRYSTAL-STRUCTURE AT(1) RECEPTOR SIGNAL-TRANSDUCTION OPIOID RECEPTOR TRANSMEMBRANE DOMAINS ARRESTIN RECRUITMENT STRUCTURAL INSIGHTS BINDING-SITE Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) is a prototypical class A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that has an important role in cardiovascular pathologies and blood pressure regulation as well as in the central nervous system. GPCRs may exist and function as monomers, however, they can assemble to form higher order structures, and as a result of oligomerization, their function and signaling profiles can be altered. In the case of AT1R, the classical G alpha(q/11) pathway is initiated with endogenous agonist angiotensin II binding. A variety of cardiovascular pathologies such as heart failure, diabetic nephropathy, atherosclerosis, and hypertension are associated with this pathway. Recent findings reveal that AT1R can form homodimers and activate the noncanonical (beta-arrestin-mediated) pathway. Nevertheless, the exact dimerization interface and atomic details of AT1R homodimerization have not been still elucidated. Here, six different symmetrical dimer interfaces of AT1R are considered, and homodimers were constructed using other published GPCR crystal dimer interfaces as template structures. These AT1R homodimers were then inserted into the model membrane bilayers and subjected to all-atom molecular dynamics simulations. Our simulation results along with the principal component analysis and water pathway analysis suggest four different interfaces as the most plausible: symmetrical transmembrane (TM)1,2,8, TM5, TM4, and TM4,5 AT1R dimer interfaces that consist of one inactive and one active protomer. Moreover, we identified ILE238(6.33) as a hub residue in the stabilization of the inactive state of AT1R. 2025-10-09T10:52:32Z 2019 Article 1549-9596 1549-960X http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.jcim.9b00294 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/15465 10.1021/acs.jcim.9b00294 4314 4327 59 10 31429557 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:000503918200026 en JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL INFORMATION AND MODELING Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) [214Z122] Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK)(Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (TUBITAK)) The numerical calculations reported in this paper were fully performed at TUBITAK ULAKBIM, High Performance and Grid Computing Center (TRUBA resources).

Monitor selection according to the defect location in the medial femoral condyle flap Ercin, Burak Sercan Tatar, Burak Ergun Cavadas, Pedro C. Bahcesehir University University of Health Sciences Turkey Istanbul Bagcilar Training & Research Hospital Critical Care Medicine Emergency Medicine Orthopedics Surgery Medial femoral condyle flap Flap monitor Microsurgery Buried flap Hand surgery ARTERIAL ANATOMY RECONSTRUCTION NONUNION GRAFT Background: Medial femoral condyle(MFC) flap is frequently used in hand reconstruction, but like other buried flaps, MFC is not easy to monitor and follow.In this study, we present our adipofascial and periosteal tissue technical modifications and results for MFC free flap monitoring and compare different monitoring methods. Methods: Twenty one patients with wrist bone or metacarpal defect reconstructed with MFC flap were included in the study. Adipofascial tissue in wrist defect and periosteal tissue in metacarpal defect were selected as MFC flap's monitor. Patient characteristics, type of injury, flap size, early or late-period complications, flap elevation time,satisfaction scale, visual analogue scale (VAS) and postoperative X-ray view were noted. Results: There were 3 female and 18 male patients in the study. The mean age of the patients was 50.8 (38-68). The elevation times of flaps with adipofascial and periosteal monitors were 48 and 53.3 min, respectively. The satisfaction scale averages for the adipofascial and periosteal monitor groups were 3.5 and 3.54, respectively. The VAS scores of the adipofascial and periosteal monitor groups were 2.9 and 3.9, respectively. The flap sizes with periosteal and adipofascial monitors were 10.48 cm(3) and 1.36 cm(3), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between flap elevation, VAS, and satisfaction scale (>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in flap sizes. (<0.05) Conclusion: MFC free flap is frequently used in wrist and metacarpal reconstruction. Monitor selection according to the defect area positively affects the prognosis of the flap in the postoperative period. (c) 2022 Elsevier Ltd.

Such an increase will create a very challenging environment in which to perform charged particle trajectory reconstruction, a task crucial for the success of the ATLAS physics program, and will exceed the capabilities of the current ATLAS Inner Detector (ID). A new all-silicon Inner Tracker (ITk) will replace the current ID in time for the start of the HL-LHC. To ensure successful use of the ITk capabilities in Run 4 and beyond, the ATLAS tracking software has been successfully adapted to achieve state-of-the-art track reconstruction in challenging high-luminosity conditions with the ITk detector. This paper presents the expected tracking performance of the ATLAS ITk based on the latest available developments since the ITk technical design reports. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved. 2025-10-05T14:33:57Z 2025 Article 17480221 https://doi.org/10.1088/1748-0221/20/02/P02018 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/6525 10.1088/1748-0221/20/02/P02018 2-s2.0-105001207995 20 2 en Journal of Instrumentation All Open Access Green Accepted Open Access Green Open Access Hybrid Gold Open Access application/pdf Institute of Physics

It investigated how variations in mass fraction, oil film thickness, and cylinder diameter impacted the efficiency and torque transfer capabilities of the system. The research aimed to identify the optimal combination of these parameters for improved performance under magnetic field conditions. The study employed both experimental and numerical simulation methods. Cylinders with diameters of 80 mm, 105 mm, and 130 mm were tested to analyze the dynamics of fluid flow between internal and external cylinders. Numerical simulations predicted optimal system performance, and the results were validated through laboratory experiments. Key metrics included torque transfer, rotational velocity, oil film thickness, and shear stress applied to the cylinder walls. The findings show that reducing oil film thickness enhanced torque and rotational transfer. The 80 mm cylinder performed poorly at low mass fractions, while the 105 mm cylinder achieved effective performance at a 60 % mass fraction. The 130 mm cylinder demonstrated superior performance across all mass fractions due to its thinner oil film and higher shear stress. However, torque transfer plateaued at magnetic field intensities above 0.33 T, indicating limitations in system control. In conclusion, optimizing mass fraction and cylinder diameter enabled significant improvements in torque and rotational transfer. The system achieved a maximum torque of 2.75 N.m and a peak rotational speed of 820 rpm with a 130 mm cylinder at a 60 % mass fraction. 2025-10-09T12:23:23Z 2025 Article 0735-1933 1879-0178 http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.icheatmasstransfer.2025.108789 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14719/19729 10.1016/j.icheatmasstransfer.2025.108789 163 Science Citation Index Expanded (SCI-EXPANDED) WOS:001435135900001 en INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS IN HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education's Higher Education Industry-Education Integration Practice Project [202107175] Ministry of Education's Industry-University Cooperation Collaborative Education Project Construction of Communication and Electronic Experiment Training Base [202101220021] Zhejiang Provincial Department of Education's Higher Education Industry-Education Integration Practice Project Ministry of Education's Industry-University Cooperation Collaborative Education Project Construction of Communication and Electronic Experiment Training Base Zhejiang Provincial Department of Educations Higher Education Industry-Education Integration Practice Project Exploration of Collab-orative Construction of EMS Talent Base Based on Industry-Education Integration (202107175) .
