Öğe Role of Reelin and Zinc in the Pathogenesis of D-Glutamic Acid-Induced PAH(Wiley, 2023) Oruc, Kadriye Yagmur; Oruc, Aykut; Altan, Mehmet; Sonmez, Osman Fuat; Yanar, Karolin; Kepil, Nuray; Mengi, Murat[Abstract Not Available]Öğe A Cytogenetic Study on the Angora Breed of Goat (Capra hircus) Reared in Turkiye(Univ Namik Kemal, 2008) Nicodemo, D.; Pauciullo, A.; Castello, A.; Soysal, I; Aytac, M.; Di Berardino, D.The Angora breed of goat plays an important role for the Turkiye's Native Animal genetic resources point of view; nevertheless, so far, no comprehensive cytogenetic investigation has been performed on this important economic breed. The present preliminary cytogenetic study has been conducted upon a sample of Angora goat breed reared in Turkiye in order to ascertain the basic chromosomal status of the breed and to start a cytogenetic screening at a population level. Blood cultures have been noted according to the conventional methods and synchronized with thymidine. Conventional and GTG-RBA-RBG-banded karyotypes have been produced to determine the relative length and centromeric index of the chromosomes of the breed. Banding comparison confirmed similarity of the Angora breed of goat with the established standardized RBA-RBG banding a pattern of the goat species. Further cytogenetic studies should now be addressed at a population level to identify carriers of numerical and/or structural chromosomal abnormalities in the Angora breed population for implementation of its productive and reproductive efficiency.Öğe Retrograde intrarenal surgery learning curve of urology residents supervised by an experienced endourologist: A rirsearch study(Elsevier, 2023) Sahin, M.

S.Objective To evaluate the retention rate, treatment response and safety of tocilizumab (TCZ) as first-line biologic treatment in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with inadequate response to disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARD-IR). Methods The TReasure Registry is a multicentre, web-based registry of RA and spondyloarthritis patients across Turkey. DMARD-IR RA patients who received TCZ as first-line biologic treatment were included in this registry for efficacy and safety. Demographic and clinical data, treatments, and adverse events were collected. Drug retention rate was estimated using Kaplan-Meier analysis. Results Among 642 RA patients who ever used TCZ, 258 DMARD-IR RA patients (male/female: 18.2%/81.8%, mean age, 54.41 years) received TCZ as first-line biologic. The median disease duration was 97 (range, 60-179) months and the median TCZ treatment duration was 15 (range, 6-28) months. At the 6th and 12th months of TCZ treatment, the decrease in disease activity scores from baseline was significant. The Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed the retention rate of TCZ at the 12th, 24th, 36th, and 60th months as 81.1%, 73.8%, 66.2%, and 63.6%, respectively. Fifty-seven (22%) patients discontinued TCZ; the main reason being primary or secondary inefficacy (n=29). Conclusion Over 80% drug retention rate at 12th month of TCZ treatment in this real-world study was concordant with previously conducted TCZ clinical studies. Significant reductions not only in the disease activity score-28 but also in the simplified disease activity index (SDAI) and clinical disease activity index (CDAI) scores, along with health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) scores, supported the impact of TCZ in RA management with a good safety profile.Öğe Weighted statistical rough convergence in normed spaces(Maejo Univ, 2024) Bayram, Erdal; Aydin, Abdullah; Kucukaslan, MehmetStatistical convergence is a significant generalisation of the traditional convergence of real or complex valued sequences. Over the years, it has been studied by many authors and found many applications in various problems. In this paper we introduce a new concept about statistical rough convergence for sequences in normed spaces by using weighted density, which is a generalisation of the natural density. We investigate the fundamental properties of g-statistical rough convergence and statistical rough limit points including closeness, convexity and boundedness. We also establish a relationship between statistical rough limit points and g-statistical boundedness. The obtained results provide a new framework for studying statistical rough convergence.Öğe A new marker of coronary collateral flow in patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction(Verduci Publisher, 2023) Demirkiran, A.; Aydin, C.; Yilmaz, A.; Celikkol, A.; Alpsoy, S.; Donbaloglu, O.; Topcu, B.OBJECTIVE: Multimerin-2 is an adhesion substrate between pericytes and basal membranes during angiogenesis. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between serum Multimerin-2 and coronary collateral flow grade. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between April 2022 and August 2022, 88 patients with subacute ST-elevation myocardial infarction were included in this study. The main inclusion criteria were patients who present 12-48 hours after symptom onset and aged between 18 and 90 years. The patients were divided into two groups according to the Rentrop classification: poor collateral group (Rentrop grade 0-1) and good collateral group (Rentrop grade 2-3). Biochemical and hematological parameters were measured before coronary angiography. RESULTS: Serum Multimerin-2 levels were found to be significantly different between the two groups, and levels were higher in the Rentrop 2-3 group than in the Rentrop 0-1 group (3,527.9 +/- 1,194.2 pg/ml and 946.7 +/- 249.1 pg/ml; p < 0.00). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the area under the curve was 0.918 ( p = 0.001), and the best cut-off value of 849 pg/ ml had a sensitivity of 90.1% and a specificity of 84.1% for predicting Rentrop grade 2- 3 coronary flow. The number of patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF) by echocardiography at 30 days was significantly higher in patients with poor collateralization. CONCLUSIONS: Multimerin-2 levels were found to be higher in patients with Rentrop grade 2-3 coronary flow than Rentrop grade 0-1 coronary flow after myocardial infarction. We detected a potential relationship between MMR-2 and good coronary collateral formation.Öğe The importance of GRACE risk score in the development of high-grade atrioventricular conduction blocks after non-st-segment elevation myocardial infarction(Verduci Publisher, 2023) Uyan, U.; Aydin, C.; Gul, I.OBJECTIVE: The development of high-grade atrioventricular block (HG-AVB) after acute coronary syndrome (ACS) increases morbidity and mortality rates. A significant por-tion of HG-AVBs resolve spontaneously after re-vascularization. We aimed to evaluate the pow-er of the GRACE scoring system in predicting the development of HG-AVB and its importance in determining the need for cardiac pacemakers. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients who ap-plied to our center between July 2020 and Feb-ruary 2023 were included in the study. 600 pa-tients [340 (56.6%) male, mean age 65.4 +/- 13.6] without ST-segment elevation (NSTEMI) and who underwent revascularization were evalu-ated within the scope of the study. The heart rhythms of the patients were evaluated from the electrocardiograms (ECG) at admission. Pa-tients with HG-AVB and other patients were di-vided into two groups. The heart rhythms of these patients were evaluated during their hos-pitalization. Then, HG-AVB patients were also divided into two groups (with and without PPM need). Demographic, laboratory, angiographic, and echocardiographic characteristics of these patients were evaluated. RESULTS: Morbidity and mortality were high-er in the HG-AVB group. These patients had lon-ger intensive care and hospital stays. The mean age, creatinine value, GRACE score (GS), to-tal cholesterol (TC), and RCA lesion rates were higher in the HG-AVB group; hemoglobin level was found to be lower. As a result of regression analysis, RCA lesion, hemoglobin value, GRACE score, creatinine, and TC levels were predic-tors of HG-AVB development. In determining the need for PPM, these variables were found to be effective. ROC analysis was performed for GS, which predicted the development of HG-AVB, and the cut-off value was found to be 185.5. CONCLUSIONS: The development of HG-AVB after NSTEMI is an important health problem. By detecting these patients and those who may need PPM beforehand, various complications can be prevented, and the length of stay in the hospital can be shortened. Calculation of GS is an important parameter that can be used to pre-dict the development and course of HG-AVB.Öğe 90 day and 1-year mortality and renal outcomes of patients who started hemodialysis treatment for the first time(Asoc Regional Dialisis Trasplantes Renales, 2023) Karaboyun, Kubilay; Girgin, Sinem; Yilmaz, MurvetAim: This study aims to investigate the 90-day and 1-year mortality and the affecting factors of mortality in patients who have started dialysis treatment for the first time.Methods: Patients who started intermittent hemodialysis for the first time in the hemodialysis unit were evaluated. Patients who received hemodialysis treatment for any reason before, patients who underwent hemodialysis due to methyl alcohol, lithium, or mushroom poisoning, and patients who started dialysis in the intensive care unit were excluded from the study. The clinical and laboratory data were obtained from the patients, at admission time, from the electronic data record system and patients' charts. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify predictive factors for 90-days and 1-year mortality-dependent variables.Results: 229 patients were included in this study. 133(58.8%) of the patients were male, 96(41.9%) were female, and the median age was 64 years. While 166 patients had pre-existing renal disease, 63 patients had no prior renal disease. The number of patients who died within 90 days, which refers to short-term mortality, was 49 (21.4%). 73 patients (31.9%) died in one year (long-term mortality). At the end of one year, 38% of the whole group of patients continued receiving renal replacement therapy, while 10% of all CKD patients had not a requirement of dialysis, and only 9.17% of the patients had renal recovery.In the multivariate analysis established for short-term mortality, the following parameters showed significant predictive features: ejection fraction (OR = 3.80, 95% CI: 1.05-13.72, p=0.042), CRP (OR = 0.20, 95% CI: 0.04-0.92, p= 0.039), age (OR = 0.21, 95% CI: 0.05-0.91, p= 0.038), and diastolic blood pressure (OR = 0.08, 95% CI: 0.02-0.28, p< 0.001). The multivariate analysis for long-term mortality indicated that systolic blood pressure (OR = 0.26, 95% CI: 0.08-0.82, p= 0.022), diastolic blood pressure (OR = 0.21, 95% CI: 0.68-0.66, p= 0.008), and potassium (OR = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.10-0.70, p= 0.007) were independent predictive markers.Conclusion: Patients with CKD who have not yet started hemodialysis treatment should be followed closely, as hypervolemia, hypotension, and hemodynamic instability increase the risk of death, according to our study. In addition, we recommend that clinical conditions such as hemodynamic instability or sepsis, which may cause hypotension in AKI-D, should be addressed as soon as possible, and optimizing the fluid-electrolyte balance carefully in those patients we determined to be at risk.Öğe Investigation of the effectiveness of prone ventilation in patients followed up for acute respiratory distress syndrome in the intensive care unit(Verduci Publisher, 2023) Yildirim, I.; Aydin, C.; Gultekin, A.; Inal, M. T.; Memis, D.OBJECTIVE: Prone positioning has been found to improve oxygenation in most patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the prone position in patients with ARDS.PATIENTS AND METHODS: The prone position is one of the ventilator techniques included in recent guidelines for acute respiratory distress syndrome. This study was a retrospective evaluation of the records of 100 ARDS patients who were administered prone position mechanical ventilation in our intensive care unit. All patients were placed in the prone position for a total of 12 hours per day at 4-hour intervals (supine-prone) while admitted to the intensive care unit. RESULTS: This study included 100 participants. These patients were divided into two groups as survivors [(n=38, 16 females, 22 males, median age: 60 (24-86)] and non -survivors [(n=62, 19 females, 43 males, median age: 64 (21-93)], according to their intensive care follow-ups. Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II score, the sequential organ failure assessment score (SOFA), and in-flammation markers were statistically significantly higher in the non-survivor group. Between the two groups, there was no statistically signif-icant difference in terms of fundamental characteristics. In the sub-group evaluation of the subjects in patients with ARDS with and with-out novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) groups, the patients in the COVID-19 (+) group were older, had shorter hospital stays, had higher APACHE II and SOFA scores, and higher rates of cardiovascular disease and sepsis.CONCLUSIONS: Applying prone-position mechanical ventilation in the cohorts of our patients with ARDS resulted in a demonstrable significant improvement in the oxygenation levels of our patients.Öğe Video Aided Measurement Method for Characterization of Phenotypical Traits of an Indigenous Cattle Breed(Univ Namik Kemal, 2011) Maroti-Agots, A.; Bodo, I.; Javorka, L.; Gyurman, A.; Soysal, M. I.; Zoldag, L.This study aims to identify phenotypical traits of the Hungarian Grey (HG) and two more podolic breed (Maremmana, Anatolian Grey) with the Video Aided Measurement (VAM) method. The sample has been gathered from 1090 Hungarian Grey out of five herd and 26, and 30 from the Maremmana and Anatolian Grey. The measurements have been done by taking relevant pictures from videos recorded through the optometric VAM method. As the animal stands still in pictures, the measurements obtained via this method are safer, practical and reliable. The standard deviations and the average body size of Hungarian Grey cattle examined by this method were found to be: height at withers 133,0 cm (sd:5,7); height of back 131,5 cm (sd:5,7); rump height 133,7 cm (sd:6,1) trunk length 157,6 cm (sd:9,7); chest depth 76,9 cm (sd:4,3); body length 152,6 cm (sd:10,6); width of chest 45,5 cm (sd:4,3). The discriminant function analysis of intra-(Hungarian) and inter-breed dataset showed that there were statistically significant phenotypical differences among the herd. Based on the results, the VAM method can be a potential tool for conservation herds, primarily for obtaining the data of phenotypical aspects. New approaches like geometric morphometry can also be used for gaining phenotype data.Öğe Effect of Coronary Artery Disease Severity on RDW Levels in Patients with Stent Thrombosis(Excerpta Medica Inc-Elsevier Science Inc, 2014) Erdem, A.; Ceylan, U. S.; Esen, A.; Zencirci, E.; Topcu, B.; Koroglu, B.; Ozden, K.[Abstract Not Available]Öğe TREATMENT SUCCESS WITH TIGECYCLINE IN COMBINATION IN A CRITICALY ILL BRUCELLOSIS PATIENT: A CASE REPORT(Nobel Ilac, 2023) Yesilyurt, I. D. Murat; Kaya, Ayse Demet; Kurc, Mine AydinNeurobrucellosis is serious complication of Brucella infections and treatment options are quite controversial. Due to high relapse rates and treatment failure observed with monotherapy, a combined therapy is applied. In combination therapy, recently promising results are reported when tigecycline is combined with other antibacterial agents. Besides in-vitro studies, human case reports,-predominantly for severe and life-threatening infections-support treatment success. In this study, we are presenting a case of neurobrucellosis, who recieved a combination therapy including tigecycline, ceftriaxone and rifampicin and totally recovered with no sequela. Our case had the signs and symptoms suspecting of neurobrucellosis, but remained underdiagnosed and cardio/pulmonary arrest had occurred. After resuscitation the patient was hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU). Diagnosis of brucellosis was based on clinical features, culture and serological tests of blood and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples, neuroimaging and confirmed by molecular methods. Tigecycline was used by intravenous (IV) route in combination with ceftriaxone and rifampicin, as the patient was mechanicaly ventilated and oral intake was by nasogastric (NG) tube. Risk of vomiting which would prevent doxycycline efficiency led us to apply this combination, to eliminate the risk in this critically ill patient. After observing significant improvement, the treatment was replaced with the oral treatment of rifampicin and doxycycline and terminated in six months. In conclusion, tigecycline seems to be a potential treatment option for brucellosis in combination with other drugs, particularly for specific patient groups, and severe and life threatening conditions related with brucellosis, who have limited alternative treatment options.Öğe Mefepronic acid, a PPAR agonist, is inefficient on reproductive performance of ewes in both early and late postpartum period(Sivar-Soc Italiana Veterinari Animali Reddito, 2023) Kutlu, Metehan; Dogan, Halef; Aktug, ErayThe liver is a dynamic organ that plays critical roles in many physiological processes. In farm animals, supporting the liver reduces postpartum metabolic diseases and loss of reproductive and milk yield in the transition period. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of mefepronic acid (2-methyl-2-phenoxy propionic acid) injection on reproductive performance parameters with short-term progesterone administration in early and late postpartum period Hungarian Merino ewes during the non-breeding season. In the study, 89 adult ewes in the early (n=45) and late (n=44) postpartum (pp) period were used in the study. Control and treatment (MA) groups were formed separately for each pp period. Following insertion of a vaginal sponge containing 60 mg medroxyprogesterone acetate for 7 days, PMSG 500 IU was injected intramuscularly (day 7) to all ewes. In treatment groups (Early MA and Late MA), 10 mg/kg mefepronic acid (Hepagen((R)), Fatro Gunesli) was injected (day 7), and remaining ewes consisted of control groups (Early Control and Late Control). The estrus signs of the ewes were followed and they were handmated (ewe: ram=5:1). Pregnancies were determined with transabdominal real time B-Mode ultrasonography with convex probe (3.5 MHz) on day 45 post-mating. There were no statistical differences in estrus rate, pregnancy rate, lambing rate and litter size at 1st service, 2nd service and overall services in early and late pp groups. According to results of this study, administration of mefepronic acid to ewes in the early and late pp period had no increasing effect on reproductive parameters. However, further studies investigating the survival of embryos and prostaglandin metabolism are needed to determine the efficacy of mefepronic acid in ewes.Öğe Effect of fermented concentrated potato protein on milk yield and fertility parameters in dairy cows in the prepartum and postpartum periods(Sivar-Soc Italiana Veterinari Animali Reddito, 2023) Aktug, Eray; Baytok, Erol; Turkmenoglu, BurcinThis study aims to determine the effects of fermented concentrated potato protein (FCPP) which showed very high levels of indole acetic acid (IAA) on milk yield, fertility, and level of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) parameters in pregnant dairy cows and pregnant heifers. In total, sixty Holstein cattle were enrolled in the study. The animals were divided into three groups, as control group (n=20), 25 g FCPP group (n=20), and 50 g FCPP group (n=20). Besides, these main groups were also divided into two sub-groups, as primiparous (n=10) and multiparous cows (n=10). Oral administration of FCPP started two weeks (14 +/- 4 days) before expected parturition and continued until postpartum day 100. The affinity of IAA found in FCPP pellets to 5HT1 and JAK2 receptors, which is thought to be related to IGF-1 release, was determined by the molecular docking method that receptor affinities were found as -5.8637 kcal/mol and -4.3857 kcal/mol, respectively. Blood IGF-1 profile was followed at 7 different time points throughout the study. It was detected that the IGF-1 concentrations have significant difference in terms of both time and groups (P<0.05). Furthermore, there was a significant difference in interaction of time and parity (P<0.05). The results showed that average and total 100-day milk yield was not affected by FCCP supplementation (P>0.05). FCPP supplementation generally has improved the mathematical data of fertility parameters, but no statistical significance was detected except for calving-conception interval. It was found that calving-conception interval reduce by 16.8% in primiparous cows supplemented with 25 g FCPP. The pregnancy rates in control, 25 g and 50 g FCPP were found as 72.2 %, 78.9 % and 88.9 %, respectively (P>0.05). This study has concluded that fermented concentrated potato protein (which has indole acetic acid-indole compounds) may improve the productivity of dairy cows supplemented in transition period and it has suggested that further research must be done for its usage and beneficial effects in dairy cows.Öğe EXISTENCE OF ONE WEAK SOLUTION FOR p(x)-BIHARMONIC EQUATIONS INVOLVING A CONCAVE-CONVEX NONLINEARITY(Math Soc Serbia-Drustvo Matematicara Srbije, 2017) Ayazoglu (Mashiyev), Rabil; Alisoy, Gulizar; Ekincioglu, IsmailIn the present paper, using variational approach and the theory of the variable exponent Lebesgue spaces, the existence of nontrivial weak solutions to a fourth order elliptic equation involvinga p(x)-biharmonic operator and a concave-convex nonlinearity the Navier boundary conditionsis obtained.Öğe Comparison of video laryngoscopy and direct laryngoscopy for nasotracheal intubation during pediatric oral surgery: a randomized clinical trial(Kuwait Medical Assoc, 2024) Canakci, Ebru; Gultekin, Ahmet; Cebeci, Zubeyir; Coskun, Ilker; Tas, Nilay; Altinbas, AliObjectives: Airway control is a condition that should be evaluated primarily in anesthesia practice in the pediatric age group. Failed or prolonged intubation duration can cause atelectasis and hypoxia in children. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of Macintosh laryngoscopy and McGrath video laryngoscopy (VL) on hemodynamic parameters in pediatric patients who were scheduled to undergo elective oral surgery and required intubation for the application of general anesthesia. Design: Prospective, randomized, single-blind study Setting: Ordu University, Training and Research Hospital, Ordu, Turkey Subjects: Sixty-six patients were divided into two groups. Interventions: According to the procedure used during intubation, direct laryngoscopy (DL) or VL. Main Outcome Measures: The Cormack-Lehane and Mallampati scores, intubation duration, heart rate and mean arterial pressure values were recorded for all the patients. Results: We found that the intubation time in the VL group was shorter than that in the DL group (P=0.024). Magill forceps were significantly less frequently used in the VL group (P<0.001). When the VL and DL groups were compared, significant differences were observed in the heart rate at minute 3 (P=0.014) and minute 5 (P<0.001), systolic blood pressure at minute 3 (P=0.008), and mean arterial pressure at minute 3 and 5 (P=0.004, P=0.002, respectively). Conclusion: Compared with the classic Macintosh laryngoscopy, McGrath video laryngoscope reduces the intubation time, facilitates intubation and reduces the stress response to intubation. We believe that video laryngoscopy devices should be extensively used in anesthesiology practice.Öğe Awareness or neglecting the diagnosis of cow milk protein allergy in the neonatal period(H E C Press, Healthy Eating Club Pty Ltd, 2023) Vardar, Gonca; Ozdil, Mine; Tufekci, SinanBackground and Objectives: Cow milk protein allergy (CMPA) can mimic surgical disease, gastroenteritis, sepsis, and necrotizing enterocolitis in the neonatal period. For this reason, we aimed to evaluate the clinical features, differential diagnosis, and treatment methods of neonates with CMPA. Methods and Study Design: The charts of twenty-six breastfed full-term and preterm newborns presenting with CMPA between October 2018 and February 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical symptoms, laboratory findings, and methods used in diagnosis and treatment were analyzed. Results: CMPA was diagnosed in preterm infants 50% (n=13) at the same rate as in full-term infants 50% (n=13) between 32 to 38 weeks corrected age (median 36 weeks). Among patients with CMPA, 69.2% (n=18) had blood in the stool at the onset. Cow's Milk-related Symptom Score score was found to be significantly higher prior to diagnosis vs. after treatment with the cow milk protein-free mom's milk diet [12(11-13) vs. 4(3-5), p<0.001]. Seventy-two hours after the commencement of the mothers' elimination diet, macroscopic blood in stool disappeared in all patients except one patient. Oral food challenge (OFC) for the diagnosis of CMPA was carried out on all (n=26) neonates. Eosinophilia was seen in 46.2% of patients (n=12). The methemoglobin concentration was 1.1 to 1.5% (median 1.3%). Conclusions: CMPA should be kept in mind for well-appearing preterm and full-term infants suspected of necrotizing enterocolitis and gastroenteritis, respectively, presenting with bloody stool and eosinophilia. The use of OFC can be implemented since neonates were very well monitored in the neonatal intensive care unit. Treatment is possible by continuing breastfeeding.Öğe The Determination of Some, Reproduction, Growth and Morphological Traits in Honamli Goats Breeds(Univ Namik Kemal, 2018) Karadag, Orhan; Soysal, Mehmet IhsanIn this study, aimed to determine some morphological traits of Honamli Goat Breed which are widely reared in Turkey's Mediterranean Region, especially The Taurus Mountains. Data on live body weight, body length, height at withers, height at rump, heart girth, chest depth, tail length, head length, forehead width, the front and rear shank circumference were collected from goats (n=200) kept by traditional farmer. Regression analysis was carried out for live weight with all the linear body measurements. The data were classified on the basis of age and gender pattern. Age and sex significantly (P<0.01) influenced all the body measurements. Live body weight and some linear body measurements were highly (P<0.01) and positively correlated for all ages. Regression analysis show thatlive weight can be estimated using measurements of chest depth, body length, chest circumference, forehead width, and front shank circumference. As regards reproductive traits birth rate, infertility, single and twin births rates were calculated, 87%, 13%, 71% and 28% respectively. The litter size and kid rate values were calculated 1.28 and 1.11 respectively. In this study, a total of 190 heads kids were used, twin and single kids birth weight 3.58 kg and 3.95 kg, weaning weight 24.94 kg and 28.69 kg, suckling period daily weight gain, 0.180 kg and 0.205 kg respectively. The average survival rate at weaning (120 days) was found 80 %.Öğe Determination of Different Tillage Methods In Terms of Technically And Economically in Second Crop Maize For Silage (2nd Year)(Univ Namik Kemal, 2014) Baran, M. F.; Durgut, M. R.; Kayhan, I. E.; Kursun, I.; Aydin, B.; Bayhan, Y.The research has been carried out in Central Station of Ataturk Soil and Water Agricultural Meteorology Research station manager in 2011 sowing season. In the research, the effects of different soil tillage systems (T-1: Turn shredder + Heavy tine spring cultivator + Pneumatic precision drill, T-2: Turn shredder + Rotory tiller+ Pneumatic precision drill, T-3: Turn shredder + Chisel + Heavy duty disk harrow + Pneumatic precision drill and T-4: Plough +Heavy duty disk harrow + Pneumatic precision drill) applied in second crop maize for silage have been compared in terms of plant growing, yield and enterprise economy. In the study, fuel consumption and labor success of the machines, average outflow time of the plant, land rattoon outflow degree, straw thickness, plant length and yield values and moisture of the soil have been determined and the methods have been analyzed. As a result of the evaluations, while the highest silage yield has been obtained in traditional method as T-4, the lowest yield has been obtained in T-2: method. Among the methods, the lowest fuel consumption has been determined in T-1 soil tillage system with 25.21 It/ha and the highest fuel consumption has been determined in T-4 soil tillage system with 46.46 It/ha. The soil tillage system in which the average labor success is the highest has been T-4 soil tillage system with 5.40 ha/h and the other subjects have been calculated as 5.07 ha/h T3, 4.23 ha/h T-1, 4.17 ha/h T-2 respectively. In cost analyses which have been done as to gross profits, T-4 soil tillage system has obtained the highest gross profit with 6069.24 TL/ha and T-3,T-1 and T-2 soil tillage systems have followed it with 5972.50 TL/ha, 5549.40 TL/ha and 5403.37 TL/ha respectively.Öğe TIME-VARYING EXCHANGE RATE PASS-THROUGH TO DOMESTIC PRICES: EVIDENCE FROM TURKEY(Inst Economic Forecasting, 2023) Ilhan, Ali; Akdeniz, Coskun; Ozdemir, MetinExchange rate fluctuations have decisive effects on inflation dynamics and monetary policy in emerging market economies. This paper analyzes exchange rate pass-through to domestic prices in Turkey by employing the TVP-VAR model for the period from 2002:01 to 2019:12. Our findings indicate that exchange rate pass-through varied throughout the relevant period. Specifically, the pass-through coefficients decreased considerably after adopting the inflation targeting regime, whereas it accelerated significantly following the exchange rate depreciations, especially after 2013. This upward trend was probably due to structural problems and policy choices. Rising pass-through coefficients may imply the exchange rate pass-through has an impact during inflation targeting. However, it should be noted that inflation targeting has underperformed in Turkey due to policy preferences in the last decade.
