    Palliative Care in High and Low Resource Countries
    (2021-01-01T00:00:00Z) KEBUDİ, Rejin; ÇAKIR, FATMA BETÜL; Silbermann, Michael; ÇAKIR, FATMA BETÜL
    Palliative Care (PC) is defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a support provided by multiple disciplines in order to improve the quality of life of both patients and their caregivers, throughout the disease course, from diagnosis to end- of-life. PC aims to prevent and treat symptoms and side effects of the disease and its treatment. PC is well developed in most high-income countries; however in most low-income settings, where approximately 80% of patients with cancer requiring PC care for advanced disease live, PC services are still uncommon. Health indicators monitoring global PC development are policy, education, use of medicines, service provision and professional activity. Globally, PC development may be categorized as Group 1 (no known hospice-PC activity), Group 2 (capacity-building activity), Groups 3a Isolated PC provided, 3b Generalized PC provided, 4a hospice-PC services at a stage of integration into regular service provision, and 4b hospice-PC services at a stage of advanced integration into regular service provision. Spirituality is an essential element of patient-centered PC. The use of Complementary and Traditional Medicine (CTM) in Middle Eastern countries is widespread. There are wide discrepancies in cancer care and PC in many regions of the world. The Individualized Care Planning and Coordination (ICPC) Model is designed to facilitate the advance care planning with continuity of all the measures like symptom control or emotional, social and spiritual care of both the patient and the family during the disease steps like relapse or end of life.

    The Disease that is Unforgettable: a Case of Rapidly Progressive Tetanus
    (2013-09-01T00:00:00Z) Koruk, Suda Tekin; Sogut, Ozgur; Karaagac, Leman; Calisir, Celal; Yalcin, Saban
    Tetanus is an acutely progressive central nervous system (CNS) infection characterized by severe respiratory distress and persistent tonic spasms. The bacteria toxin which is largely responsible for the clinical course of tetanus is tetanospasmin, which is effective in the central and autonomous nerve system and the neuromuscular junction. The symptoms arise with the toxin reaching the CNS generally within 10-14 days. Shortness of incubation period is a negative prognostic factor. Its prevalence in developed countries has been reduced with primary and secondary immunization programs made in each decade. However, it is still a serious public health issue in developing countries. In this paper, the aim was to present a case of fatal tetanus, who had received his last immunoprophylaxis about 25 years ago and had a rapidly progressive clinical course.

    Impact of maternal anxiety level on the childhood vaccination coverage.
    (2010-11-01) ÖZKAYA, EMİN; ÖZKAYA, EMİN
    The mother-s mental state as a risk factor for the children-s vaccination status in developing countries has received little attention. The aim of this study was to determine the association between childhood vaccination coverage and maternal anxiety. A total of 195 consecutive infants and their mothers attending a tertiary teaching hospital, department of pediatric outpatient center between January 2008 and September 2009 were included in the study. One hundred five infants who have incomplete vaccination schedule (according to the National Immunization Schedule) were matched with 90 controls (fully vaccinated) and their mothers self-report measure of anxiety level using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), a psychiatric screening instrument. The chi-square test and the logistic regression were used in the statistical analysis. High maternal anxiety levels determined by STAI was associated with increased risk of incomplete vaccination status in infants (odds ratio 4.35, 95% confidence interval 1.87-8.79).This association remained significant after controlling for sociodemographic factors. High maternal anxiety scores may result in incomplete vaccination status in children younger than 3 years.

    Incidence and outcomes of eclampsia: a single-center 30-year study
    (2019-04-01T00:00:00Z) Uludag, Semih Zeki; Karasu, AYŞE FİLİZ; KÜTÜK, MEHMET SERDAR; TAKMAZ, TAHA; GÖKMEN KARASU, AYŞE FİLİZ; KÜTÜK, MEHMET SERDAR; TAKMAZ, TAHA
    Objective: We aimed to determine the incidence of eclampsia at Erciyes University Hospital which is a tertiary referral center situated at central Anatolia. Additionally, we investigated eclampsia-associated maternal and perinatal outcomes for the 30-year study period. Methods: A retrospective review was performed for all women who were diagnosed with eclampsia and admitted to the Erciyes University Medical School, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology from January 1985 to December 2015. Improvement in management gained over time was determined by comparing the results of the years 2005-2015 with data which were already published from years 1985-1999 and 2000-2004. Results: Eclampsia prevalence was 289/46,928 (% 0.61). Maternal age at the time of diagnosis did not differ statistically; however, gestational age at diagnosis and birth weight decreased significantly throughout the years (p < 0.005). The perinatal mortality rate showed a slight decrease throughout the years (p = 0.238). Maternal mortality rate also decreased throughout the years; it was 1.7% in 2005-2009 and 0 % in 2010-2015 (p = 0.246). Conclusion: The prevalence of eclampsia cases has decreased over the years. Maternal mortality attributed to eclampsia has also declined. The early diagnosis and treatment of eclampsia have resulted in the increase of premature deliveries. The perinatal mortality rate showed a slight decrease throughout the years (p = 0.238); however, it is not at a desirable rate compared to developed countries.

    We aimed to develop a scoring system for predicting in-hospital mortality of community-acquired (CA) sepsis patients. This was a prospective, observational multicenter study performed to analyze CA sepsis among adult patients through ID-IRI (Infectious Diseases International Research Initiative) at 32 centers in 10 countries between December 1, 2015, and May 15, 2016. After baseline evaluation, we used univariate analysis at the second and logistic regression analysis at the third phase. In this prospective observational study, data of 373 cases with CA sepsis or septic shock were submitted from 32 referral centers in 10 countries. The median age was 68 (51-77) years, and 174 (46,6%) of the patients were females. The median hospitalization time of the patients was 15 (10-21) days. Overall mortality rate due to CA sepsis was 17.7% (n = 66). The possible predictors which have strong correlation and the variables that cause collinearity are acute oliguria, altered consciousness, persistent hypotension, fever, serum creatinine, age, and serum total protein. CAS (%) is a new scoring system and works in accordance with the parameters in third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis and Septic Shock (Sepsis-3). The system has yielded successful results in terms of predicting mortality in CA sepsis patients.

    Amaç: İstatistiksel proses kontrol (İPK), bir sürecin verilerini incelemek için geliştirilen ve sürecin anlaşılmasını uygun hâle getirenanaliz yöntemidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 1990-2016 yılları arasındaseçilmiş bazı Avrupa ülkelerinde insan immün yetmezlik virüsü (HIV)enfeksiyonu ve tüberkülozun (TB) kontrol altında olup olmadığınınaraştırılması, ayrıca kontrol dışına çıktığı yıllardaki HIV ve TB birlikteliğinin incelenmesidir. Ayrıca bu hastalıklarla seçilmiş Ekonomik Kalkınma ve İşbirliği Örgütü gelişmişlik kriterlerinin ilişkisinin araştırılmasıdır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma kapsamımızdaki seçilmiş bazı Avrupa ülkelerinin, yıllar bazında HIV ve TB seyrinin İPK ile incelendiği çalışmamızda, Dünya Sağlık Örgütü (DSÖ) ve Birleşmiş Milletler HIV/AIDS (kazanılmış immün yetmezlik sendromu) Ortak Programı veri tabanlarından, 1990-2016 yılları arasındaki HIV ve TB insidans verileri alınmıştır. Avrupa ülkelerinin yarıyıl popülasyonları, DSÖ veri tabanından alınmıştır. Çalışmaya alınan Avrupa ülkeleri (Almanya, Fransa, İngiltere, İspanya, İtalya, Macaristan, Türkiye, Polonya ve Ukrayna), DSÖ Avrupa Bölgesi sınıflandırmasına dayanılarak seçilmiştir. Bulgular: Batı Avrupa ülkelerinde, HIV ve TB kontrol altına alınmıştır. Orta Avrupa ülkelerinde, TB kontrol altında, HIV kontrol dışında seyretmektedir. Doğu Avrupa ülkelerini temsil eden Ukrayna’da ise her 2 enfeksiyon da kontrol dışında görülmektedir. Sonuç: HIV’in kontrol altına alınmasını etkileyen faktörler açısından bir değerlendirme yapıldığında, ülkeler arasında önemli epidemiyolojik ve HIV kaskadı farklılıkları olduğu dikkat çekicidir. Özellikle HIV enfeksiyonunu kontrol altına almaya yönelik politikalar oluşturulurken, bu enfeksiyonu kontrol altına alan ülkelerin politikalarının da incelenmesi gerekmektedir.

    (2016-01-01T00:00:00Z) KIZILYILDIZ, Baran Serdar; SÖNMEZ, Bulent; Karaman, Kamuran; Beger, Burhan; MERCEN, Adnan; ALIOGLU, Suleyman; Cesur, YAŞAR; CESUR, YAŞAR
    Malnutrition in childhood is a dramatic indicator of poor socio-economical status worldwide. To recognize and reveal the socio-demographic features is crucial, especially for developing countries. Our aim was to investigate the prevalence and association with sociodemographic variables of malnutrition in 0-5 years old children in Van, Turkey. A total of 702 children are included in this cross-sectional study. Demographic features of subject including age, gender. family characteristics and other data were obtained. Nutritional assessment was done using anthropometric indices including weight for age, height forage, weight-for-height, head circumference and body mass index-for-age. Multivariate logistic regressions were carried out to assess malnutrition -associated factors. Prevalence of underweight, stunting and wasting were 19.7, 17.7 and 16.2%, respectively. Socio-demographic variables that statistical significantly in association with malnutrition were low monthly family income educational level and employment status of father, parental consanguinity, number of pregnancies, regular intake of vitamin D and history, of prematurity The prevalence of children with head circumference-z score S-2SD and body mass index forage 2SD were 9.8 and 16.3%. respectively. Multivariate analysis detected following risk factors for these indices: low monthly family income, history of prematurity, unemployed father and the period between pregnancies (12 years). We found that prevalence of malnutrition in the city of Van, was still higher than more developed regions of Turkey. The associated risk factors of malnutrition should be specifically interpreted by health professionals and also by government authorities that are responsible for making practical politics of public health.

    Evaluation of circular economy business models for SMEs using spherical fuzzy TOPSIS: an application from a developing countries’ perspective
    (2022-01-01T00:00:00Z) Toker, Kerem; Görener, Ali; TOKER, KEREM
    While the circular economy has recently been the subject of considerable theoretical debate, the discussion has yielded limited insight into how its implementation should look. Developing countries’ inadequate regulation and policy hinder the circular economy’s implementation in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with resource, strategy, and skill constraints. Therefore, circular economy business models (CEBMs) support SMEs in overcoming the risks of implementation. However, SMEs often struggle to decide which CEBM to use. This study aims to enable developing countries’ SMEs to choose the most appropriate CEBM using the spherical fuzzy TOPSIS method, which is an extremely new method for solving decision-making problems. The four main CEBMs most frequently encountered in the literature and practice have been extensively analysed. The results suggest that the resource recovery model is the most appropriate model for transitioning to a circular economy for SMEs in developing countries. Circular supply is the second suitable business model. Following these stages, after the organisation reaches a specifc level of CE maturity, the product life extension and the product–service system model should be applied at the last stage. A comparative assessment and a sensitivity analysis are conducted to test the proposed methodology’s robustness and reliability. The results opened up a space for discussion and for new thoughts that could improve the scope of the CEBMs theory. Using all CEBMs together, we concluded that the transition to CE will not be successful for SMEs. The order in which CEBMs should be applied in the transition to CE has been determined. Their scope, risks, and resources needed were correlated with these data from the feld. This practical implementation guide, which we recommend based on theoretical foundations, ofers administrators and future researchers original insights.

    Introduction: Although vaccines are the safest and most effective means to prevent and control infectious diseases, the increasing rate of vaccine hesitancy and refusal (VHR) has become a worldwide concern. We aimed to find opinions of parents on vaccinating their children and contribute to available literature in order to support the fight against vaccine refusal by investigating the reasons for VHR on a global scale. Methodology: In this international cross-sectional multicenter study conducted by the Infectious Diseases International Research Initiative (ID-IRI), a questionnaire consisting of 20 questions was used to determine parents- attitudes towards vaccination of their children. Results: Four thousand and twenty-nine (4,029) parents were included in the study and 2,863 (78.1%) were females. The overall VHR rate of the parents was found to be 13.7%. Nineteen-point three percent (19.3%) of the parents did not fully comply with the vaccination programs. The VHR rate was higher in high-income (HI) countries. Our study has shown that parents with disabled children and immunocompromised children, with low education levels, and those who use social media networks as sources of information for childhood immunizations had higher VHR rates (p < 0.05 for all). Conclusions: Seemingly all factors leading to VHR are related to training of the community and the sources of training. Thus, it is necessary to develop strategies at a global level and provide reliable knowledge to combat VHR.
