Tiroid hastalıkları, gebelik esnasında kompleks hormonal değişiklikler nedeniyle yaygın olarak görülür. Fetal hidrops, düşük doğum ağırlığı, fetal distress ve nörofizyolojik gelişme geriliği açısından risklidir. 20 yaşında primigravid gebe hipotiroidizmle başvurdu ve bu esnada propiltiourasil (PTU) 3x1 kullanmaktaydı. Yapılan ultrasonografi (USG)’de hidrops fetalis görüldü ve bunun üzerine PTU ...

UML class diagrams are widely used to model the static structure of object-oriented software systems. As a supplement, OCL becomes more and more popular for formulating constraints that can not be modeled by the diagrams. In this paper, we extend OCL with elements of temporal logic. With this extension, constraints on the temporal development of the system structure as well as on the system beh...

Cancer is a major public health problem worldwide and is the second leading cause of death in the world. In 2016, 1,685,210 new cancer cases and 595,690 cancer deaths are projected to occur in the United States [1]. The data also indicated that an estimated 4292,000 new cancer cases and 2814,000 cancer deaths would occur in China in 2015 [2]. So far, surgery and chemotherapy are still the main ...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major public health problem (1,200,000 new cases per year worldwide) and increasingly affects older people; the current median age at diagnosis is 71, and for CRC-related death is 75 years. After 50 years of age, the incidence doubles every seven years, and 76% of patients with newly diagnosed CRC are between 65 and 85 years of age. The liver is the most common site...

When linear precoding is applied to filterbank multicarrier systems, a combination of all subcarriers is transmitted, minimizing the effect of a deep fade in a subcarrier while also reducing frequency offset sensibility and the peakto-average power ratio. However, their equalization becomes even more challenging than usual. In this paper, we present an analysis on the effect of multitap subchan...

O2 diving incidents investigated by our laboratory were related to improper filling of the soda lime canister in closed-circuit oxygen rebreathers. We studied the effect of overfilling or underfilling the canister on CO2 absorption using a continuous flow of 5% CO2. With a full canister in the Oxyger 57, CO2 began to rise at 130-160 min, reaching 1% at 240 min and 1.5% at 270 min. Similar resul...
