    (Başkent Üniversitesi Eğitim Bilimleri Fakültesi, 2018) Avcı, Ummuhan; Ersoy, Halil; 0000-0001-7007-1478; 0000-0003-1598-7656
    Bu araştırmanın amacı Law, Lee ve Yu 2010 tarafından geliştirilen Bilgisayar Programlama Derslerinde Öğrenme Motivasyonu Ölçeği’ni Türkçe’ye uyarlamaktır. Bu amaçla geçerlik ve güvenirlik analizlerini yapmak üzere altı faktör bireysel tutum ve beklenti, zorlayıcı amaçlar, belirgin hedefler, ödül ve takdir, ceza, sosyal baskı ve rekabet ve 19 maddeden oluşan altılı Likert tipindeki ölçek, özel bir üniversitede okuyan 312 mühendislik fakültesi öğrencisine uygulanmıştır. Doğrulayıcı faktör analizi sonuçları incelendiğinde, ölçeğin altı faktörden oluştuğu doğrulanmış ve ölçeğin uyum iyiliği indislerinin yeterli düzeyde olduğu görülmüştür. Ölçeğin güvenilirliği Cronbach alfa iç tutarlılık katsayısı ile değerlendirilmiştir. Cronbach alfa katsayısının ölçeğin tamamında 0.90 olduğu ve faktörler bazında 0.71 ile 0.83 arasında değiştiği görülmüştür. Bu sonuçlar ölçeğin, bilgisayar programlama derslerinde öğrenme motivasyonunun ölçülmesinde geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçme aracı olduğunu göstermektedir. The aim of this study is to adapt the Learning Motivation in Computer Programming Courses Scale developed by Law, Lee ve Yu 2010 to Turkish. In order to determine its validity and reliability, the scale consisting of 19 six-point Likert-type items within six factors individual attitude and expectation, challenging goals, clear direction, reward and recognition, punishment and social pressure and competition was applied to 312 engineering faculty students at a private university. When the results of the confirmatory factor analysis were examined, it was confirmed that the scale had six factors, and the goodness of fit indices are at an acceptable degree. The reliability of the scale was assessed by the Cronbach alpha internal consistency coefficient. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficiencies were found to be 0.90 for the whole scale and between 0.71 and 0.83 for the factors. These results show that scale is a valid and reliable measuring tool for learning motivation in computer programming courses

    (2019) Muderrisoglu, Mustafa; Muderrisoglu, Haldun; 0000-0002-9635-6313; AAG-8233-2020
    Objective: Cardiac syndrome x (CSX) is defined as typical exertional angina, one or more abnormal cardiac stress test(s), and normal coronary arteries after exclusion of spontaneous or inducible epicardial coronary spasm. The aim of this study was to investigate cardiovascular adverse events risks in patients with CSX. For this purpose, spatial QRS-T angle that is predictor of these risks was evaluated in patients with CSX and control subjects. Methods: In a retrospective study, a total of 179 subjects (95 patients with CSX, 84 control) were examined. Control subjects had a normal coronary computed tomography. Spatial QRS-T angle value was calculated and compared in patients with CSX and control group, p values <0.05 were considered as statistically significant. Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of spatial QRS-T angle values [control group spatial QRS-T angle value median 35 (12.5 - 60), CSX group spatial QRS-T angle value median 51 (27 - 115), p<0.001]. Conclusion: According to our results, spatial QRS-T angle value was elevated in patients with CSX than in normal population. Furthermore, these results may indirectly suggest that the risk of adverse cardiac events may be increased in patients with CSX.

    The role of PET-CT in the evaluation of the response of the vertebra metastases in stereotactic radiosurgery
    (2019) Ozdemir, Yurday; Torun, Nese; Topkan, Erkan; 0000-0001-8120-7123; AAG-5629-2021; AAG-2213-2021
    Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of positron emission tomography in assessing the response of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for vertebral metastases(VM). Materials and Methods: Patients who received 16 Gy or 18 Gy SRS with no history of vertebral compression fracture, proven histologies except small-cell lung carcinoma and hematologic malignancies which are known as radio sensitive tumors, available pre- and post SRS PET images were included. All vertebral segments were categorized according to spinal instability neoplastic score in terms of stability and PET Response Criteria in Solid Tumors (PERCIST) criteria was utilized for treatment response. Results: Seventy-five patients with 119 VS (101 single, 9 double VS) received SRS. Breast cancer (66.7%) was the commonest pathology. Most patients (70.6%) had SINS 06.The local control was achieved in 87.4% VS with a 1-year local relapse -free survival rate of 92.5%. The median PET-CT time for the first SRS response assessment was 3-months (range:1-3.5 months) and there were only 4 (3.3%)local relapses in contrast to the positive responses in the remainders (30.3% complete, 43.7% partial responses and 22.7% stabil disease). While there were 11 local relapses in the last PET-CT response, no patient experienced any relapse complete response was achieved in the first PET-CT.Complete response in the first PET-CT was correlated with positive response in the last PET CT also. Conclusion: First PET-CT response after SRS seems to be valuable in anticipation of both the final vertebral response status and planning of alternative interventions for non-responders.

    (2019) Basustaoglu, Ahmet; Suzuk Yildiz, Serap; Mumcuoglu, Ipek; Karahan, Zeynep Ceren; Ogunc, Dilara; Kaleli, Ilknur; Kursun, Senol; Evren, Ebru; Ozhak, Baysal Betil; Demir, Melek; Murray, Patrick; 30683035
    Sepsis is a serious clinical problem and estimated to be responsible for 18 million annual deaths worldwide. Therefore, the use and the rapid processing of blood cultures are important for the transition from empiric therapy to directed therapy. The aim of this study was to assess the best blood culture practices in Turkey. We have examined the collection practices and techniques at four different hospitals, and a total of 165.443 blood culture bottles were evaluated (2013-2015). At the preanalytical phase most of the data which were important and which could support hospital quality systems/practices were not entered into the HIS and EpiCenter system. At the analytical phase loading of the bottles and removal of positive bottles primarily occurred between 6:00 and 9:00 AM but the positivity rate of the bottles showed a homogeneous distribution throughout the day. In other words, there were significant delays at processing positive blood culture bottles related to laboratory workers. The effect of education regarding best practices, transition from single bottle to two bottle cultures was successful in all hospitals. Single bottle usage decreased below 10% in all hospitals. Significantly more positive cultures were detected at multiple cultures when compared with the single bottle collection practice. In retrospective patient records, it was seen that all the laboratories reported the results of Gram staining to the clinics. However, these data were not recorded to the Epicenter. The contamination rates of Ankara Numune Hospital and Akdeniz University Faculty of Medicine Hospital are 6.2% and 5.4% respectively, contamination rates were not reported in other hospitals. The most common isolates detected in blood cultures were Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Acinetobacter baumannii. The mean time for the detection of these organisms were less than 20 hours in the aerobic bottle and anaerobic bottles. A total of 79.6% of facultative anaerobic isolates were detected in both bottles; 9.8% were detected only in the aerobic bottles; 10.6% of the isolates were detected only in the anaerobic bottles. As a result, the educational efforts in Turkey have met with success for transition from collecting single bottle blood culture sets to two bottle blood cultures. However, further efforts are needed to increase the number of blood culture sets collected during a 24 hour's period. In addition, errors at the preanalytical, analytical and postanalytical periods (taking samples, loading bottles into the system and processing positive blood cultures) should be eliminated.

    (2019) Dagli, Figen Sahin; Taskiran, Candan; Krespi, Margorit Rita; Gokler, Bahar
    Objective: Child abuse and neglect should be a main topic in trainings of students who have a possibility to encounter a neglected and abused child in their future professional lives. Use of psychodrama in training such an important and sensitive subject is a novel approach. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the effects of psychodrama method for the training about child abuse and neglect given to university students. Method: In this training, a group of 11 students attended the 16 week course, once a week for 2,5 hours. The effects of this training were evaluated by quantitative and qualitative methods. Results: For quantitative analysis pre and post training knowledge tests revealed scores of 33 and 39 respectively. The difference was statistically significant (p<0.05). Awareness test scores for pre and post training evaluation were 85 and 89 respectively. Although there was an increase after training this increase was not statistically significant (p=0.65). Focus group interview which was performed for qualitative analysis revealed that the training increased the participants' awareness and empathy, made them more sensitive for the news about children and child abuse, taught them not to judge people, encouraged them for their future career and made them understand the importance of multidisciplinary approach. Discussion: These perceived benefits indicate that psychodrama method may be used to teach the topic of child abuse and neglect.

    Prognostic significance of lymphovascular space invasion in low-risk endometrial cancer
    (2019) Ayhan, Ali; Sahin, Hanifi; Sari, Mustafa Erkan; Yalcin, Ibrahim; Haberal, Ali; Meydanli, Mehmet Mutlu; 30665899
    Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the prognostic significance of lymphovascular space invasion in women with low-risk endometrial cancer. Methods A dual-institutional, retrospective department database review was performed to identify patients with 'low-risk endometrial cancer' (patients having <50% myometrial invasion with grade 1 or 2 endometrioid endometrial cancer according to their final pathology reports) at two gynecologic oncology centers in Ankara, Turkey. Demographic, clinicopathological and survival data were collected. Results We identified 912 women with low-risk endometrial cancer; 53 patients (5.8%) had lymphovascular space invasion. When compared with lymphovascular space invasion-negative patients, lymphovascular space invasion-positive patients were more likely to have post-operative grade 2 disease (p<0.001), deeper myometrial invasion (p=0.003), and larger tumor size (p=0.005). Patients with lymphovascular space invasion were more likely to receive adjuvant therapy when compared with lymphovascular space invasion-negative women (11/53 vs 12/859, respectively; p<0.001). The 5-year recurrence-free survival rate for lymphovascular space invasion-positive women was 85.5% compared with 97.0% for lymphovascular space invasion-negative women (p<0.001). The 5-year overall survival rate for lymphovascular space invasion-positive women was significantly lower than that of lymphovascular space invasion-negative women (88.2% vs 98.5%, respectively; p<0.001). Age >= 60 years (HR 3.13, 95% CI 1.13 to 8.63; p=0.02) and positive lymphovascular space invasion status (HR 6.68, 95% CI 1.60 to 27.88; p=0.009) were identified as independent prognostic factors for decreased overall survival. Conclusions Age >= 60 years and positive lymphovascular space invasion status appear to be important prognostic parameters in patients with low-risk endometrial cancer who have undergone complete surgical staging procedures including pelvic and para-aortic lymphadenectomy. Lymphovascular space invasion seems to be associated with an adverse prognosis in women with low-risk endometrial cancer; this merits further assessment on a larger scale with standardization of the lymphovascular space invasion in terms of presence/absence and quantity.
