The Alevi Discourse in Turkey
(Brill, 2015) Suvari, Cakir Ceyhan; Kanca, Elif
This paper is an attempt at exploring different interpretations of Alevism and Alevi identities, having emerged as a result of rapid and large-wave migrations, particulalry from 1960 onwards, from the countryside to the urban centres of Turkey. Those Alevis, who had become more and more isolated from the larger Alevi community and each other, ended up divided into different religious and ideological sects. Emergence of various Alevi associations and foundations proved unable to prevent such disintegration. On the contrary, it was the newly established Alevi institutions, emerging upon different bases, which actually heterogenised the Alevi phenomenon. Today, each Alevi institution in fact promotes its own particular perception of Alevism; the latter may even vary among family members. Therefore, it will be more accurate to speak of Alevi identities rather than of a single, unified Alevi identity in today's Turkey.
Are Nigella Sativa and Urtica Dioica Fixed Oils Effective on Carbon Tetrachloride-Induced Liver Injury Model in Rats
(Studium Press Llc, 2008) Ozbek, Hanefi; Ozturk, Mustafa; Erdogan, Ender; Kosem, Mustafa
Effectiveness of Nigella sativa and Urtica dioica. in prevention of carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury were investigated in this study. Sprague-Dawley rats were given carbon tetrachloride dissolved in olive oil intraperitoneally three times a week for 11 weeks. After liver fibrosis was developed, carbon tetrachloride was discontinued and rats were randomized in four groups. They were treated with Nigella sativa fixed oil (2 ml/kg), Urtica dioica fixed oil (2 ml/kg) or Nigella sativa (2 ml/kg) and Urtica dioica (2 ml/kg) per orally for four weeks. The control group was untreated. The animals were sacrificed and specimens were taken for biochemical and histopathological study at the end. Cessation of carbon tetrachloride allowed for partial recovery of liver tissue by autoregeneration in control group. Liver fibrosis was further progressed in all three treatment groups and resulted in cirrhosis in some animals. In Urtica dioica group alanine aminotransferase level was significantly higher compared to other groups. Serum indirect bilirubin levels were higher in Urtica dioica and Nigella sativa groups compared to control and Nigella sativa+Urtica dioica groups. Present study indicate that fixed oils of Nigella sativa, Urtica dioica and Nigella sativa +Urtica dioica did not show a therapeutic effect in experimental liver fibrosis in rats.
An Assessment Relationship Between Social Exclusion and Transportation
(Igi Global, 2017) Ozkazanc, Seher; Sonmez, Nihan Ozdemir
Having been used extensively since the 1980s, the concept of social exclusion has given a new impetus to the discussions of poverty and disadvantageousness. The concept of social exclusion, which can be defined as the condition in which certain individuals or social groups cannot integrate into the society either socially or economically or politically, leads to social cohesion problems. This triggers segregation of the society, particularly in large cities, in both social and spatial terms. In the context of accessibility, "urban transport" appears as one of the most important factors determining level of social inclusion/exclusion of the individuals or groups. In this study relation between social exclusion and transport has been evaluated as an attempt to identify socio-spatial segregation pattern of Ankara.
Associations Between Dissociation and Post-Traumatic Stress Response
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2016) Boysan, Murat
Research has consistently pointed out post-traumatic stress reactions in the face of trauma exposure are multifaceted. In this vein, significant linkages between post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and dissociative psychopathology have been demonstrated to have importance for profoundly understanding the underlying psychological mechanisms in persistent PTSD. Recent studies focusing on trauma-related responses have provided convincing evidence for the premise that post-traumatic reactions are heterogeneous in nature. Specifically, two types of post-traumatic reactions have been hypothesized in the face of traumatic symptom provocation, one predominantly characterized by reexperiencing/hyperarousal states and the other primarily dissociative. Given the heuristic that PTSD is a heterogeneous nosological entity, it was reviewed in this chapter in several lines of research that has specifically focused on complicated relations between dissociation and PTSD. Various strands of evidence for the significant linkages between PTSD and dissociation include distinct comorbity patterns of PTSD, shared etiology, factorial and taxonomic studies examining symptom overlaps between PTSD and dissociative disorders, and the role of dissociation in emotional dysregulation in PTSD. The complex relations between PTSD and dissociation are addressed in the light of recent clinical and theoretical considerations.
Bayesian Regularized Neural Networks for Small N Big P Data
(intech Europe, 2016) Okut, Hayrettin
Artificial neural networks (ANN) mimic the function of the human brain and they have the capability to implement massively parallel computations for mapping, function approximation, classification, and pattern recognition processing. ANN can capture the highly nonlinear associations between inputs (predictors) and target (responses) variables and can adaptively learn the complex functional forms. Like other parametric and nonparametric methods, such as kernel regression and smoothing splines, ANNs can introduce overfitting (in particular with highly-dimensional data, such as genome wide association - GWAS-, microarray data etc.) and resulting predictions can be outside the range of the training data. Regularization (shrinkage) in ANN allows bias of parameter estimates towards what are considered to be probable. Most common techniques of regularizations techniques in ANN are the Bayesian regularization (BR) and the early stopping methods. Early stopping is effectively limiting the used weights in the network and thus imposes regularization, effectively lowering the Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension. In Bayesian regularized ANN (BRANN), the regularization techniques involve imposing certain prior distributions on the model parameters and penalizes large weights in anticipation of achieving smoother mapping.

Corrosion of Metallic Biomaterials
(Springer-verlag Berlin, 2015) Dikici, Burak; Esen, Ziya; Duygulu, Ozgur; Gungor, Serap
Metallic materials have been used as biomedical implants for various parts of the human body for many decades. The physiological environment (body fluid) is considered to be extremely corrosive to metallic surfaces; and corrosion is one of the major problems to the widespread use of the metals in the human body since the corrosion products can cause infections, local pain, swelling, and loosening of the implants. Recently, the most common corrosion-resistant metallic biomaterials are made of stainless steels and titanium and its alloys along with cobalt chromium molybdenum alloys. It is well known that protective surface films of the alloys play a key role in corrosion of the metallic implants. Key documents on the corrosion behavior of the metallic biomaterials in human body have been compiled under this chapter as a review.
Differentiation of Human Embryonic Stem Cells on Periodontal Ligament Fibroblasts
(Humana Press inc, 2016) Elcin, Y. Murat; Inanc, Bulend; Elcin, A. Eser
Human embryonic stem cells' (hESCs) unlimited proliferative potential and differentiation capability to all somatic cell types makes them one of the potential cell sources in cell-based tissue engineering strategies as well as various experimental applications in fields such as developmental biology, pharmacokinetics, toxicology, and genetics. Periodontal tissue engineering is an approach to reconstitute the ectomesenchymally derived alveolar bone, periodontal ligament apparatus, and cementum tissues lost as a result of periodontal diseases. Cell-based therapies may offer potential advantage in overcoming the inherent limitations associated with contemporary regenerative procedures, such as dependency on defect type and size and the pool and capacity of progenitor cells resident in the wound area. Further elucidation of developmental mechanisms associated with tooth formation may also contribute to valuable knowledge based upon which the future therapies can be designed. Protocols for the differentiation of pluripotent hESCs into periodontal ligament fibroblastic cells (PDLF) as common progenitors for ligament, cementum, and alveolar bone tissue represent an initial step in developing hESC-based experimental and tissue engineering strategies. The present protocol describes methods associated with the guided differentiation of hESCs by the use of coculture with adult PDLFs and the resulting change of morphotype and phenotype of the pluripotent embryonic stem cells toward fibroblastic and osteoblastic lineages.
Distribution of Gene Mutations Associated With Familial Normosmic Idiopathic Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism
(Galenos Yayincilik, 2012) Gurbuz, Fatih; Kotan, L. Damla; Mengen, Eda; Siklar, Zeynep; Berberoglu, Merih; Dokmetas, Sebila; Topaloglu, Ali Kemal
Objective: Normosmic idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (nIHH) is characterized by failure of initiation or maintenance of puberty due to insufficient gonadotropin release, which is not associated with anosmia/hyposmia. The objective of this study was to determine the distribution of causative mutations in a hereditary form of nIHH. Methods: In this prospective collaborative study, 22 families with more than one affected individual (i.e. multiplex families) with nIHH were recruited and screened for genes known or suspected to be strong candidates for nIHH. Results: Mutations were identified in five genes (GNRHR, TACR3, TAC3, KISS1R, and KISS1) in 77% of families with autosomal recessively inherited nIHH. GNRHR and TACR3 mutations were the most common two causative mutations occurring with about equal frequency. Conclusions: Mutations in these five genes account for about three quarters of the causative mutations in nIHH families with more than one affected individual. This frequency is significantly greater than the previously reported rates in all inclusive (familial plus sporadic) cohorts. GNRHR and TACR3 should be the first two genes to be screened for diagnostic purposes. Identification of causative mutations in the remaining families will shed light on the regulation of puberty.

Fish Gelatin
(Elsevier Academic Press inc, 2010) Boran, Gokhan; Regenstein, Joe M.
Gelatin is a multifunctional ingredient used in foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and photographic films as a gelling agent, stabilizer, thickener, emulsifier, and film former. As a thermoreversible hydrocolloid with a narrower gap between its melting and gelling temperatures, both of which are below human body temperature, gelatin provides unique advantages over carbohydrate-based gelling agents. Gelatin is mostly produced from pig skin, and cattle hides and bones. Some alternative raw materials have recently gained attention from both researchers and the industry not just because they overcome religious concerns shared by Jews and Muslims but also because they provide, in some cases, technological advantages over mammalian gelatins. Fish skins from a number of fish species are among the other sources that have been comprehensively studied as sources for gelatin production. Fish skins have a significant potential for the production of high-quality gelatin with different melting and gelling temperatures over a much wider range than mammalian gelatins, yet still have a sufficiently high gel strength and viscosity. Gelatin quality is industrially determined by gel strength, viscosity, melting or gelling temperatures, the water content, and microbiological safety. For gelatin manufacturers, yield from a particular raw material is also important. Recent experimental studies have shown that these quality parameters vary greatly depending on the biochemical characteristics of the raw materials, the manufacturing processes applied, and the experimental settings used for quality control tests. In this review, the gelatin quality achieved from different fish species is reviewed along with the experimental procedures used to determine gelatin quality. In addition, the chemical structure of collagen and gelatin, the collagen-gelatin conversion, the gelation process, and the gelatin market are discussed.
Glacial Landscape and Old-Growth Forests of the Mount Kackar National Park (Eastern Black Sea Region)
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Cicek, Ihsan; Gurgen, Gurcan; Tuncel, Harun; Dogu, Ali Fuat; Kurdoglu, Oguz
The Eastern Black Sea Mountains were substantially glaciated owing to the suitable geomorphological-climatological conditions during the Pleistocene. Glacial landscapes occur in valleys higher than 1800-2000 m a.s.l. The altitude of the Pleistocene climatic permanent snowline in the region is 2600 m a.s.l. The mountainous area is important for Turkey owing to six glaciers still present in these highlands. Today the glacier line in the area of Mount Kackar National Park is approximately 3000-3100 m a.s.l. Evidence of four glacier advances was found in the Basyayla Valley within Mount Kackar National Park area. Kavran Valley lies in the Kackar Mountain and is a N-S-oriented, typically U-shaped glacial valley consisting of a main and three tributary valleys. According to the Be-10 ages, the advance of the Kavran Paleoglacier began at least 26.0 +/- 1.2 ka ago, with the Last Glacial Maximum advance continuing until 18.3 +/- 0.9 ka. In the area, there are 10 villages and 35 yaylas. All houses are built with stone and wood. The traditional activities of the population focus on animal husbandry, with a seasonal organization characterized by summer pasturing in the high sections of the mountains. In the National Park, approximately 13000 cattle and sheep migrate seasonally between village and yaylas, while honey production is another significant activity. On the other hand, the region provides exciting activities such as glacier and rock climbing, trekking, heli-skiing and nature photography, which attract foreign and domestic tourists.
