Yeşildal, Ruhi; Sezer, Sadberk; Karabudak, Filiz
Despite the widespread use of Mg and Al alloys among light metals in the automobile and aviation industries, they have low tensile and fatigue strength. Therefore, in the present work, AZ91 Mg and AA6063 Al alloys were coated with a multilayer transition metal nitride film (Cr/CrN/TiCrN/TiCrCN) to increase fatigue and tensile strength. Films with Cr/CrN/TiCrN/TiCrCN microstructure architecture were synthesized on the surfaces of AZ91 Mg and AA6063 Al alloys using the CFUBMS (closed-field unbalanced magnetron sputtering) system, one of the PVD (physical vapor deposition) techniques. Films’ structural properties were analyzed by XRD, SEM, and EDAX, whereas mechanical properties were investigated using tensile and rotary bending fatigue testing machines. According to the SEM examination, the Cr, CrN, TiCrN, and TiCrCN multilayer nitride films on the two alloys have a columnar and dense microstructure. The XRD analysis detected Cr (211), CrN (111) and (200), TiN (111), (200) and (222), and TiCN (200) and (311) diffraction peaks. The Cr/CrN/TiCrN/TiCrCN multilayer coating increased the fatigue limit value of AZ91 by 11.22% from 70.26 MPa to 78.15 MPa. The fatigue limit value of AA6063 decreased by 9.79% from 79.71 MPa to 71.9 MPa. After coating, the tensile strength value of AZ91 increased from 137.89 MPa to 139.65 MPa, while the tensile strength of AA6063 decreased from 129.35 MPa to 118.16 MPa.

Erol, Ismail; Peker, Iskender; Medeni, Ihsan Tolga; Yuce, Fatma
The integration of artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and digital twins (DT) in dentistry is essential to meet evolving patient expectations and global healthcare challenges. However, realizing their full potential requires addressing significant adoption barriers. While conceptual studies have explored challenges to implementing AI, blockchain, and DT in dentistry, no prior research has systematically analyzed the interrelationships among these obstacles using a structured decision framework. This study employs pentagonal fuzzy (PF) DEMATEL to investigate the connections among challenges to effectively implementing AI and blockchain-based DT in dentistry. Expert opinions highlight ethical considerations and bias and fairness in AI-based DT as the most critical causal challenges. We propose an AI and blockchain-based DT architecture that enables human doctors to leverage DT-based decision support, while AI-driven systems execute high-precision procedures with blockchain-verified workflows. This framework enhances treatment accuracy and personalization in dentistry and offers a scalable model for addressing societal concerns, such as privacy, fairness, and labor dynamics, in technology-driven ecosystems. A pilot study framework is proposed to validate diagnostic accuracy, data security, and treatment customization. Accompanied by stakeholder guidelines, this research bridges dentistry with broader discussions on technology's societal impact, emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary strategies to ensure equitable and trustworthy innovation.

Koçak, Tevfik; Kocyigit, Emine; Ağagündüz, Duygu
Background: This study aimed to examine the validity and reliability of the Chrono-Med Diet Score (CMDS) to assess adherence to the Mediterranean diet in Turkish adults. Methods: The methodological research conducted in Gümüşhane and Ordu from January to June 2024, including 592 individuals (62.3% women, 37.7% men, and the mean age 43.4 ± 10.6 years). Data were collected through face‒to‒face interview that contained socio-demographic characteristics, the CMDS, the Mediterranean Diet Adherence Screener (MEDAS), and 24-h dietary recall. Internal consistency reliability was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, while repeatability was examined using the test–retest method. Construct validity was assessed by the MEDAS, and components of the adapted CMDS obtained from the 24-h dietary recall were analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis. The content validity was assessed by the Paired samples t-test and Wilcoxon test. The Bland–Altman test with 95% limits of agreement was used to evaluate the agreement between sum of CMDS. The results were statistically evaluated at a p < 0.05 significance level. Results: The content validity index of CMDS was 0.87. The overall Turkish version of CMDS had acceptable internal consistency (Cronbach’s α = 0.853), thus indicating that the score was reliable. The Paired samples t test coefficients between each item and the overall questionnaire ranged from 0.234 to 1.000. A higher intake of olive oil and fish obtained from a 24-h dietary recall was associated with a higher CMDS quartile (p < 0.05). The MEDAS score was correlated with a higher CMDS quartile (p < 0.001). A moderate positive correlation was determined between total CMDS and MEDAS (r = 0.467; p < 0.001). Conclusions: Our assessments of the CMDS, consisting of 13 items, in Türkiye demonstrate that it is a viable and reliable instrument to measure adherence to the Mediterranean diet for the adult population. The CMDS is more accurate than other Mediterranean diet scores as it questions about the amount of physical activity and grain products, which helps determine each participant’s eating patterns and general health.

Çakir, Günay; Bozali, Nuri; Sivrikaya, Fatih
Snow-covered land surfaces can be easily mapped using remote sensing technologies. Accurate estimation of snow cover on the land surface allows for the construction of water resource management today. Using Landsat TM/ETM + satellite images, this study tried to assess how much snowfall covered the soil in Trabzon, Gümüşhane, and Bayburt provinces between 1999 and 2023. Satellite images were classified into three categories using the ERDAS 9.1 TM software. These classes are classified as snow-covered surfaces, other places, and data loss (cloud-shadow). When performing image analysis, it was important to verify that the cloudiness rate in the images was less than 15%. Images with cloudiness rates of more than 15% were not used. Seasonal and annual trend analysis of snow-covered areas (SCA) over three distinct regions (Trabzon, Gümüşhane, and Bayburt) were examined using the Mann-Kendall test. When three distinct study regions were examined together, Bayburt had the highest SCA rate, followed by Gümüşhane and Trabzon. In all three fields, the highest SCA was recorded in 2000, while the lowest SCA was recorded in 2017. The trends noticed that SCA on both annual and seasonal scales did not reach the statistical significance level of 0.05. Although snowfall in Trabzon, Gümüşhane, and Bayburt was beneficial in the autumn and spring seasons, no statistically significant association was found. The research concluded that the existing data are inadequate to make any statements on the impact of global warming in the area. However, the study figured out that satellite data may be effectively used to identify snowy places as a result of the study. Comparable investigations need to be undertaken in regions with varying climates, utilizing diverse remote sensing data and classification methodologies.

Objective: Cancer patients often experience significant declines in quality of life (QoL), which can elevate suicide risk. In culturally religious societies like Iran, religious coping may serve as a critical buffer against such adverse outcomes. This study examined the relationship between QoL and suicide risk among Iranian cancer patients, with a focus on the mediating role of religious coping. Method: A purposive sample of 350 cancer patients from Tehran was analyzed using validated measures of QoL (EORTC QLQ-C30), suicide risk (Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation), and religious coping (Brief RCOPE-14). Data were analyzed using SPSS v26 and the PROCESS macro v4.0. Results: Bivariate correlations revealed that lower QoL was strongly associated with higher suicide risk (r = -0.62, p < 0.001), while positive religious coping correlated with better QoL (r = 0.48, p < 0.001) and reduced suicide risk (r = -0.41, p < 0.001). Mediation analyses demonstrated that positive religious coping significantly attenuated the QoL-suicide risk relationship (indirect β = -0.09, 95% CI [-0.15, -0.04]), accounting for 17% of the total effect. Negative religious coping, though less prevalent, also mediated this relationship but to a lesser extent (indirect β = -0.03, 95% CI [-0.05, -0.01]). Subgroup analyses indicated that the protective effect of positive religious coping was stronger in advancedstage patients. Conclusion: These findings underscore the importance of integrating spiritual care into oncology settings in Iran, leveraging faith-based resources to enhance resilience and reduce suicide risk. Future research should explore longitudinal and culturally tailored interventions to further elucidate the role of religious coping in cancer survivorship.

The relationship between serum fetuin-A levels and obesity has not been fully understood. This study aims to elucidate the levels of serum fetuin-A and F/A ratio in obesity and contribute to the literature on whether they could be novel clinical predictors modulated through body composition and nutrition. The study included 73 participants who were obese and 71 participants with normal weight, aged between 18 and 65 years. Certain anthropometric measurements of the individuals were taken, and a body composition analysis was performed. In addition, 3-day food records (consecutive days: 2 weekdays and one weekend day) were taken. Serum levels of fetuin-A (ng/mL) and adiponectin (μg/mL) were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The F/A ratio was obtained by dividing fetuin-A (ng/mL) by adiponectin (μg/mL). Serum fetuin-A (ng/mL) level and F/A ratio are higher in obese participants than in normal weight (p < 0.05). Body weight (kg) (r = 0.553, p ≤ 0.001), body mass index (kg/m2) (r = 0.492, p ≤ 0.001), waist circumference (cm) (r = 0.522, p ≤ 0.001), body fat percentage (%) (r = 0.203, p = 0.015), serum fasting blood glucose levels (mg/dL) (r = 0.317, p ≤ 0.001), and dietary protein intake (kg) (r = 0.165, p = 0.048) were observed to be positively correlated with serum fetuin-A levels. Positive correlations were also observed between these parameters and the F/A ratio (p < 0.05). Negative correlations were found between serum adiponectin and these parameters (p < 0.05). In addition, when dietary cholesterol intake was kept constant, a 1-unit increase in dietary energy intake (kcal) resulted in a 0.043-fold increase in serum fetuin-A (p < 0.05). The study results support theories suggesting the involvement of serum fetuin-A levels and the F/A ratio in the pathogenesis of obesity. The higher serum fetuin-A levels and F/A ratio found in obese participants may be considered as new clinical determinants that could be regulated through body composition and nutrition.

Aktaş, Gülten; Hisarlı, Z. Mümtaz; Öksüm, Erdinç
Lake Eğirdir, located within the tectonically complex Isparta Angle of southwestern Türkiye, hosts an actively deforming transtensional basin shaped by multidirectional stresses. Although the surrounding fault systems have been studied previously, the subsurface fault architecture beneath the lake remained largely unresolved. Understanding the lake's subsurface tectonic framework is crucial for regional geological and seismic assessments. This study addresses this gap by applying traditional and advanced edge detection techniques to identify magnetic lineaments and assess their connection with surrounding faults using newly acquired high-resolution magnetic data, corrected for noise and distortions. The distinct magnetic lineaments identified confirm a structural connection on land with the regional fault network around the lake, also showing their continuity under the lake. The results reveal dominant NW-SE and E-W trending magnetic lineaments. The most prominent structure identified within the lake is a NE-SW fault that cuts the NW-SE anomalies and is spatially related to the Yaka Fault on land. Its continuation beneath the lake is confirmed by clustered seismicity and normal fault-type focal mechanisms, indicating active transtensional deformation. These findings highlight active faulting processes that continue to shape the lake basin and contribute to understanding regional seismic hazards. Integration of magnetic, bathymetric, seismic, and geodetic datasets reveals that Lake Eğirdir acts as a dynamic neotectonic transfer zone within the Isparta Angle, facilitating the westward extrusion of the Anatolian Plate.

Günen, Mehmet Akif; Öztürk, Kaşif Furkan; Aliyazıcıoğlu, Şener
Mapping and evaluating rock mass discontinuities using point clouds is a critical task in mining, civil, and geological engineering. Rock discontinuities can significantly impact the integrity, strength, and stability of rock masses. The orientation of these discontinuities is also a key characteristic of the rock mass. Accurate orientation estimation from point clouds enables more precise predictions of rock mass behavior, leading to improved safety, more efficient excavation processes, reduced operational costs, and significant time savings. In this context, a supervised classification-based framework is proposed for calculating orientation parameters from point cloud. Supervised classification plays a crucial role in tasks where a model learns complex patterns from labeled data to accurately predict previously unseen instances. The proposed method consists of eight-steps, including: data collection, pre-processing (data filtering), adaptive neighborhood size selection (omnivariance-based), feature extraction (geometric features), feature selection (Minimum Redundancy Maximum Relevance method), classification (Support Vector Machine), clustering (connected component labeling), and plane fitting to calculate orientation parameters (dip angle and dip direction). The framework was applied to two real-world datasets and one synthetic dataset, which was tested in two different subsampled forms (random and uniform subsampling). The results statistically demonstrated that the technique was effective in detecting and characterizing rock mass discontinuities with high Accuracy, Recall, Precision, and F-Score values ranging from 94.64% to 99.57%. The deviations of the method in the measurements of the dip angle and the dip direction, compared to the manual measurements, range from 1% to 4%, indicating strong agreement with the manual measurements and the existing studies.

Çelik, Necati
High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detectors are essential instruments in gamma-ray spectrometry, offering high sensitivity and exceptional energy resolution. The full-energy-peak (FEP) efficiency is a critical parameter that influences the accuracy of activity concentration measurements of radionuclides. This study examines the FEP efficiency of a coaxial HPGe detector, focusing on variations in crystal length, crystal radius, and crystal hole dimensions. For varying crystal lengths, the efficiency values show negligible differences at low energy (50 keV) but significant increases at higher energies, indicating that longer crystal lengths enhance efficiency. Similarly, the efficiency increases with larger crystal radii across all energy levels suggesting substantial efficiency gains even at low energies. However, variations in crystal hole radius and depth, exhibit minimal impact on FEP efficiency across all tested energy levels. These findings highlight that optimizing crystal length and radius is more crucial for changing detector efficiency compared to modifying hole dimensions, providing valuable insights for optimizing Monte Carlo models and detector design.

Background: Healthcare professionals serving in the earthquake zone may experience mental problems due to the traumatic events they witnessed. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of working in earthquake-affected areas on compassion fatigue and coping strategies for earthquake stress in healthcare professionals compared to a control group. Methods: This descriptive and correlational study was conducted in three provinces in the northern region of Türkiye. The sample of the study consisted of 146 healthcare professionals working in earthquake-affected regions and 143 healthcare professionals not working in earthquake-affected regions. Data were collected using the ‘Descriptive Information Form’, ‘Compassion Fatigue Short Scale (CF-SS)’, and ‘Coping with Earthquake Stress Scale (CESS)’. Descriptive statistics, t-test for independent samples, Pearson correlation analysis and binary logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the data. Results: Statistically significant differences were found between healthcare professionals working in earthquake-affected regions and healthcare professionals not working in these regions in terms of CF-SS total scores, ‘occupational burnout’ sub-dimension mean scores and ‘seeking social support’ mean scores among CESS sub-dimension mean scores (p <.05). However, no statistically significant difference was found between the mean scores of ‘secondary trauma’ sub-dimension of CF-SS and total-CESS, ‘religious coping’, and ‘positive reappraisal’ (p >.05). A high and positive correlation (r =.805; r =.847; r =.847; r =.695, p <.001) was found between total CF-SS scores and total religious coping, positive reappraisal and seeking social support scores of the participants. In addition, working in the earthquake zone negatively affects positive reappraisal and positively affects seeking social support as a significant predictor (β =.081, OR = 0.922, p <.05; β =.111, OR = 1.117, p <.05). Conclusion: A significant positive relationship was observed between compassion fatigue and coping with earthquake stress. At the same time, it was determined that having worked in the regions affected by earthquakes had a strong positive effect on coping strategies with earthquake stress.
