    Mehel, Dursun Mehmet; Yemis, Tugba; Çelebi, Mehmet; Can, Erkan; Özdemir, Dogukan; Ünal, Asude; Özgür, Abdulkadir

    Introduction: Mechanical obstruction is the most common form of nasal obstruction. Among the types of mechanical obstructions, septum deviation and inferior turbinate hypertrophy are the most prevalent. Objective: This study evaluated the early clinical outcomes of inferior turbinate radiofrequency and inferior turbinate lateralization combined with septoplasty in the treatment of nasal obstruction symptoms. Methods: The research retrospectively evaluated data from 33 patients (24 male, nine female) undergoing septoplasty and inferior turbinate radiofrequency (RF group) and 32 patients (24 male, eight female) treated with septoplasty and inferior turbinate lateralization (LAT group), who were admitted, with complaints of nasal obstruction, to the University of Health Sciences, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, between January 1, 2017 and January 1, 2018. The patients' preoperative and 6-month postoperative symptoms were evaluated via the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation, the NOSE scale. Results: The mean preoperative NOSE scores were 10.3 +/- 4.2 in the RF group and 10.9 +/- 4.9 in the LAT group, and the mean six-month postoperative scores were 1.09 +/- 1.3 in the RF group and 1.2 +/- 1.3 in the LAT group. There was no significant difference in NOSE scores between the two groups (p> 0.05). Conclusion: The data obtained in this study show that both methods result in similar outcomes in terms of relieving nasal obstruction symptoms in patients requiring inferior turbinate intervention. Therefore, the researchers believe that, in each case, the intervention method should be selected at the discretion of the patient and surgeon(s).

    Evaluation of the process for acquisition of land property in the implementation of power transmission line projects

    Döner, Fatih; Kaya, Erhan

    While preparing PTL (Power Transmission Line) projects, the land where the PTL is crossing is determined by considering criteria such as economy, environment and security. The realization of PTL projects is possible after acquisition of property of these lands. In this study, the process of acquisition land property in the implementation of PTL projects is evaluated. When data are examined, it is seen that the number of lawsuits filed against the PTL in past year was 15759 and rate of non-court settlement with land owners in the five-year period was 13%. The main factor for the high number of lawsuits and low settlement rate is real estate valuation studies in determining the price to be paid for land to which the PTL will be established. As land value determined as a result of valuation methods, criteria and rates referenced does not reflect real value in most cases, no agreement can be reached with the land owners. It is considered that most ideal solution from a legal point of view is to prepare a holistic valuation law that regulates real estate valuation activities, from an organizational point of view is to set a connection between cadastre and real estate valuation and from a technical point of view is to set-up a database which enables managing properties of real estates and their up-to-date values.

    Külekçi, Gokhan; Çullu, Mustafa

    Various studies on the disposal or storage of the wastes generated due to mining activities have been carried out until today. With the developing technology, the use of alternative products instead of aggregates in Composite and the effect of fiber addition were investigated. The most common of these studies is the bending strength tests on the beam sample. In this study, solid wastes generated by mining operations were used instead of aggregate used in Composite. Beam samples were poured with the dimensions of 40x40x160 mm by adding 4-6 kg/m(3) polypropylene fiber to the mixture obtained by using these solid wastes; then, its effects on ultrasonic pulse velocity test, tensile test, and compressive strength tests were conducted. According to the results of these tests, it was found that the fibers had a positive effect on compressive strength and bending strength. Also, it was found that water absorption rates and densities did not have an effect, while the ultrasonic pulse velocity decreased with increasing fiber content.

    Inan, Halil Ibrahim

    In Turkey, in the areas of rural planning and land management, problems regarding data retrieval, data quality, implementation scenario and legal base (law or regulation) have long been experienced. In this study, in order to contribute to resolving such problems, a conceptual/semantic data model was designed which focuses on the definition of required data, determination of their basic qualities and also their relations. As the preparation step for the model development, interviews, and discussions with authorized people were carried out. In addition, for the definitions of the data in the model, the Land Parcel Identification System and Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) are considered. For the model design, an object-oriented modelling method with the Unified Modelling Language (UML) notation was used. In the model, planning activities were focused on. It is envisaged that the model will guide work for the preparation of a technical regulation which may enable a standardized implementation throughout Turkey. It has also the potential to be an example for the implementation of laws related to spatial data both in Turkey and also worldwide.

    Investigation of fly ash added light concretes with respect to gamma radiation transmission properties of 133Ba and 137Cs

    Külekçi, Gokhan

    With the help of the developing concrete technology, light concrete and fly ash may be used in several concrete-related fields. To provide protection from radiation, which is one of the current problems of the world, several researchers have used fly ash, but very few researchers have worked on light concrete. To be protected from the effects of radiation, researchers have examined gamma radiation absorption properties by using heavy concrete and heavy aggregates. In this study, by using Class C fly ash at the doses of 30-50-100% instead of cement, three different light concretes were prepared. Density and compressive strength experiments were conducted on the composite blocks prepared with dimensions of 50*50*50 mm, and linear absorption coefficients (cm(-1)), mass attenuation coefficients (MAC) and Tenth value layer (TVL) radiation interaction parameters were measured. Radiation interaction parameters were obtained using an HP Ge gamma detector. For radiation measurements, four different photon energies as 583 keV (Ba-133), 609 keV (Ba-133), 661 keV (Cs-137) and 911 keV (Ba-133) were used. As a result of the analyses, it was determined that compressive strength decreased as the fly ash content increased, the lowest compressive strength values were obtained in the samples containing 100% fly ash among the prepared composites, and density increased as the fly ash content decreased. It was observed that, in the prepared composites, as the energy levels increased, the linear absorption coefficients also increased, and the samples containing 30% fly ash provided the best TVL value on the energy level of 911 keV. With this study, it was revealed that fly ashes that are used in many fields could be used as a radiation shield. Additionally, with this study, due to not using heavy aggregates and due to the production of light concrete in the production of radiation shields, the cost of shield production will significantly decrease.

    Komut, Osman

    Forest industry enterprises that process round industrial wood are the biggest consumers of the forestry sector. In this study, micro-scale forest industry enterprises that process round industrial wood are investigated. Questionnaires based on face-to-face interviews were utilized as a data collection tool. The raw material storage areas of 48 enterprises, visited during the study, were subjected to direct observation and examination in terms of storage methods, conditions and damages in logs. The ratio of the enterprises participating in the total number of enterprises in the study area occurred as 64%. The relationships between the defined variables were analyzed with the Chi-square independence test. The analysis of variance was used to determine the relationship between independent variables. The results showed that raw material supply methods of enterprises differ, and they vary as the enterprise size grows. The annual average revenue was a variable that caused statically significant differentiation (p<0.05) in the raw material supply methods between enterprises. The results proved that the supply of raw materials with the stumpage sale method increased the risk of bark beetle damage in logs. Improper storage methods and conditions were identified as causes of significant blue discoloration damage in coniferous tree logs.

    Investigation the Different Extraction Temperature Effect of Artvin Savsat Region Propolis PBS Extracts on Antioxidant Properties and Eryhrocyte Hemolysis Inhibition

    Canbolat, Deniz; Turan, Ibrahim; Küpeli, Yunus Emre; Kilinç, Sedanur; Piliç, Sevim

    Propolis, which has been used in traditional medicine for hundreds of years all over the world, is a resinous natural product with a complex content obtained by honey bees by mixing the buds of plants and pollen grains with enzymes they secrete. Propolis may have different contents due to the gathering region, plant source, bee variety and climate of the place where it is collected. Although there are many studies related to different regions, so far the propolis of the Savsat region in Artvin have not been studied yet. The aim of this study is to determine the antioxidant properties (determination of iron reducing power, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, total phenolic and total flavonoid content) of propolis extracts of Artvin Savsat region prepared with phosphate buffer salt solution (PBS) prepared at different temperatures (45 and 60 degrees C) and to determine the erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition properties of the extracts. Total phenolic (11.91 +/- 0.5-24.14 +/- 1.38 mg gallic acid equivalent to g propolis) and total flavonoid (1.79 +/- 0.03-2.13 +/- 0.07 mg quercetin equivalent to g propolis) content of PBS extracts, iron power determination (12.80 +/- 0.36-27.15 +/- 0.12 mg ascorbic acid equivalent to g propolis), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrilhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity (%22.86 +/- 0.5-31.24 +/- 1.33) and erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition (%55.58 +/- 0.57-96.37 +/- 0.02) were determined using spectrophotometric methods. As a result of the experiments, it was determined that the extract with PBS obtained at a temperature of 60 degrees C was higher than the extract obtained at 45 degrees C, in terms of antioxidant properties and erythrocyte hemolysis inhibition ratio. Further studies are required to identify molecules that inhibit erythrocyte hemolysis in extracts and have antioxidant properties.

    A Research on The Relationship Between Social Media Disorder, Religiosity and Moral Disengagement In Adolescents

    Hacikelesoglu, Hizir

    Moral disengagement is a phenomenon that is at the centre of life in terms of being frequently referred to in social life. The fact that young people (as moral agents) are at the centre of criticism on moral issues makes it necessary to examine the areas in which young people are engaged and affected during this period. In this context, the present study aims to examine the relationship between social media addiction, religiosity and moral disengagement on a sample group of individuals aged 13-18. For this purpose, the research was designed according to the relational screening model, one of the quantitative research methods. The research data were collected through a sample group consisting of 415 people selected by the convenience sampling method. In the analysis of the obtained data, correlation and regression analyzes were performed by using SPSS 21. As a result of the research, there is a positive relationship between social media addiction and moral disengagement. On the other hand, a negative relationship was found between religiousness and moral disengagement. It has been determined that social media addiction and religiousness predict moral disengagement in opposite directions. In addition, it has been observed that religiosity is not a determining factor on social media addiction.

    THE ROLE OF GENDER IN THE INVESTIGATION AT REGIONAL LEVEL FOR TURKEY

    Çelik, Orkun; Erer, Elif

    We aim to explore the role of gender in the government expenditure and unemployment nexus at regional level for Turkey. For this aim, we use the dataset covering the period 2004-2019 for 26 NUTS-2 regions in Turkey and employ a panel ARDL approach. The obtained empirical findings show that government expenditure and gross domestic product per capita provide overall, female, and male unemployment rates to diminish in the long term, which means the Keynesian approach is valid on the long term. Nevertheless, on the short term, government expenditure induces rises in the male and female unemployment rates. This result indicates the validation of the Abrams Curve Hypotesis in male and female unemployment rates on the short term. Also, inflation rate increases overall and male unemployment rate on the long term, but having significant and positive impact on only female unemployment rate on the short term. All these findings show that gender has a significant role in this nexus. The expected contribution of this study to literature is to investigate the impact of government expenditure on unemployment by gender at regional level for Turkey. We are of opinion that our empirical findings can guide policy makers in active plans fighting unemployment.

    Günay, Hamdi Furkan

    This study aimed to investigate the determinants of financial stress experienced in working life during the COVID-19 pandemic process in Turkey, and also the role of the confidence placed for the government pandemic action policies in reducing financial stress. For this purpose, online survey data obtained from 414 employees were analyzed with multivariate statistical methods. As a result of the analysis, the significant effect of job insecurity and pay satisfaction on financial stress was determined. Although it was found that trust in the policies against pandemics was effective in reducing financial stress, a significant moderating effect of trust in policies was not found in the relationship of other factors with financial stress. It is recommended to prevent practices that may cause revenue and employment losses in businesses and closely monitor the steps taken to inhibit abuse in this area accordingly.
