(Taylor and Francis, 2022)Background: The aim of this study was to provide a scoping and comprehensive review for the clinical outcomes from the cross-link of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), COVID-19, and sarcopenia. Methods: By using PRISMA ... -
Comparison of frequency of silent cerebral infarction as assessed by serum neuron specific enolase in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation: Warfarin versus direct oral anticoagulant
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)Background: Cerebral infarction in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) may clinically vary from being silent to catastrophic. Silent cerebral infarction (SCI) is the neuronal injury in the absence of clinically appearent ... -
Could low α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase plasma concentration cause schizophrenia?
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)Objectives: Using a neurodevelopmental approach to examine the aetiology, we predicted an enzyme deficiency to exist at the cellular level and aimed to measure α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase (α-NAGAL) blood levels. Methods: ... -
Credit guarantee scheme and small and medium-sized enterprise finance: The case of Turkey
(Taylor and Francis, 2019)This study examines Turkey’s recently revived credit guarantee fund (KGF) mechanism from a comparative historical perspective and identifies the structural features of the Turkish economy that complicate access to finance ... -
Effect of amyl alcohol addition in a CI engine with Prosopis juliflora oil - an experimental study
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)This study aims to replace diesel with Prosopis Juliflora seed oil (JPO) in a compression ignition (CI) engine. The high viscosity of JPO promotes inferior performance and combustion. Brake thermal efficiency of JPO is ... -
Effect of intake port design modifications on diesel engine characteristics fuelled by pine oil-diesel blends
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)The effect of the modified intake port with various inclined nozzle angles such as 30°, 60°, and 90° on the diesel engine characteristics when operated with pine oil-diesel blends is investigated. Prior to the engine ... -
Effect of platelet count and platelet transfusion on fever duration in patients with febrile neutropenia
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)Platelets play a role in hemostasis, thrombosis, and vascular integrity. They also play a major role in the development of inflammation and the activation of immune responses. They have phagocytic activity, stimulate the ... -
Effects of TNF inhibitors and an IL12/23 inhibitor on changes in body weight and adipokine levels in psoriasis patients: a 48-week comparative study
(Taylor and Francis, 2021)Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with obesity and metabolic syndrome. Adipokines are thought to be a link between psoriasis and obesity. Leptin, adiponectin, and omentin are bioactive ... -
Endonasal endoscopic approach for sellar metastatic pathologies: a national observation
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)PURPOSE Sellar metastases are rare lesions. Recent improvements in diagnosis and treatment strategies have prolonged survival but increased the probability of metastatic tumors. Evaluation with clinical symptomatology and ... -
Factors that affect survival in vaginal cancer: A seer analysis
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)This study aimed to investigate the factors that affect survival in vaginal cancer by means of a large population-based database that had been monitored over a 42 year period (1975–2017). It was investigated which factors ... -
Impaired biological rhythm in men with methamphetamine use disorder: the relationship with sleep quality and depression
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)BACKGROUND This study, it was aimed to evaluate the biological rhythms of those with methamphetamine use disorder and to examine the relationship of biological rhythm with depression and sleep quality. METHODS A total of ... -
Investigation of possible associations between tryptophan/kynurenine status and FOXP3 expression in colorectal cancer
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)Tryptophan metabolism in the tumor microenvironment exerts immunosuppressive effects by affecting the anti-tumor functions of immune cells. The immunosuppressive roles of tryptophan and tryptophan metabolites and their ... -
Isolation and characterization of yogurt starter cultures from traditional yogurts and growth kinetics of selected cultures under lab-scale fermentation
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)The development of new starter cultures is a crucial task for the food industry to meet technological requirements and traditional products are important reservoirs for new starter cultures. In this respect, this study ... -
Prediction of preterm delivery in threatened preterm labour with short cervical length
(Taylor and Francis, 2022)In this study, we evaluated the value of the uterocervical angle (UCA), myometrial thickness (MT), sICAM-1, sVCAM-1, soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) and pentraxin 3 (PTX3) levels in women with threatened preterm labour ... -
