Remote sensing data, especially satellite observations make available large databases related to marine biosphere. This tremendous amount of the data causes a difficulty to acquisition, processing and evaluation processes. Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform make possible to overcome this difficulty by its state of art structure. Thus, GEE platform was included to study to process and evaluate the chlorophyll-a data for the sea of Marmara. The Sea of Marmara was considered in 2 main parts as North and South Marmara. These parts also divided into 6 sub-regions and analyzed as 12 different regions in total. MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer)-Aqua data were acquired between the years 2003-2021 with the GEE platform for all examined sub-regions and make them available for analysis. Approximately 19 years of arranged chl-a concentration data were visualized and evaluated by grouping them according to sub-regions, months and years. As expected, the highest concentration of chl-a was observed in the Sea of Marmara in square KM6, which includes the Gulf of Izmit and has limited regeneration The lowest concentration values throughout the years were found in the areal average values of the KM4 square under the influence of the jet stream formed by the upper water from the Black Sea. When the monthly data are examined, it can be said that the primary production in general takes place intensively in the whole of the Marmara Sea in the spring season. In the context of this study, the accuracy of the division of the Sea of Marmara in two main axes as North and South is clearly seen in the analyzes within the time series. We evaluate that the similarity of chl-a concentrations in the Marmara Sea to the period before 2007 and 2020 requires a special attention as evidence of a repetitive process rather than an ecological coincidence.

ÖzAmaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı; Londra Atlas tekniğinin ve Cameriere’nin 3. molar olgunluk indeksinin (I3M) Türk popülasyonunda 18 yaş yasal sınırının belirlenmesinde radyolojik diş yaşının doğruluğunu, özgüllüğünü ve duyarlılığını değerlendirmektir. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma kesitsel gözlemsel olarak tasarlanmıştır. Çalışmaya 14 - 21 yaş aralığında toplamda 804 (470 kadın, 334 erkek) birey dahil edilmiştir. 18 yaş yasal sınırının belirlenmesinde Londra Atlas ve I3M yöntemleri kullanılarak farklı iki araştırmacı tarafından radyolojik diş yaşının doğruluğu, özgüllüğü ve duyarlılığı değerlendirilmiştir. Bulgular: 18 yaş eşiğini belirlemede, Londra Atlas tekniği % 88.74 duyarlılık, % 87.37 özgüllük ve % 88.1 doğruluk gösterirken, I3M tekniği % 95.54 duyarlılık, % 75.50 özgüllük ve % 85.5 doğruluk göstermiştir. İki teknik arasındaki uyumluluk düzeyine bakıldığında ise (κ = 0.813) elde edilen uyumluluğun iyi düzeyde olduğu bulunmuştur.Sonuç: I3M ve Londra Atlas teknikleri Türk toplumunda 18 yaş eşiğini belirlemede benzer performanslar göstermiştir. Yaş tahminini güçlendirmek için Londra Atlas ve I3M tekniklerinin kombine kullanımı sonuçları değiştirmemiştir. Londra Atlas tekniğinin Türk toplumuna uyumunu görebilmek için daha çok çalışmaya ihtiyaç vardır.Anahtar kelimeler: adli tıp, panoramik radyografi, pedodonti, yaş tayini, Background: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy, specificity, sensitivity of radiological dental age in determining the legal age limit of 18 years in Turkish population via the London Atlas technique and Cameriere’s third molar maturity index (I3M). Methods: The study was designed as a cross - sectional observational study. The participants consisted of 804 individuals in total (470 female, 334 male) between the ages of 14 - 21. The accuracy, specificity, and sensitivity of radiological dental age were evaluated by two different researchers through the London Atlas and I3M in determination of the legal age limit of 18 years. Results: In determination of the age threshold of 18 years, while the London Atlas technique showed % 88.74 sensitivity, % 87.37 specificity, % 88.1 accuracy, I3M technique showed % 95.54 sensitivity, % 75.50 specificity, % 85.5 accuracy. Regarding the compatibility level between the two methods (κ = 0.813), it was found that the obtained compatibility was at good level.Conclusion: The techniques of I3M and the London Atlas demonstrated similar performances in determination of the age threshold of 18 years in Turkish society. The combined use of the London Atlas and I3M to strengthen age estimation did not change the results. More studies are needed to see the compatibility of the London Atlas with Turkish society.

This study is based on the idea that cultural productions cannot be assessed independent from social experiences of the era they are produced in, and that movies can be considered descriptive and critical instruments which illuminate ideological tendencies of historical processes. In this direction, it is argued that the traces of the specific situation of conservative ideology in Turkey in 2000s can be followed through horror movies that have increased quantitatively in the same period, and construction of conservatism in horror movies is tried to be analyzed. For this purpose, Büyü (Orhan Oğuz, 2004), Semum (Hasan Karacadağ, 2008), Ses (Ümit Ünal, 2010), Azazil: Düğüm (Özgür Bakar, 2014) ve Üç Harfliler 2: Hablis (Murat Toktamışoğlu, 2015), which are the movies produced in 2000s were selected as they most intensely include the construction of conservative themes from supportive or oppositional aspects. In line with a critical Marxist perspective and conceptual framework, it will be focused on how conservatism is constructed in selected movies and how the motifs and themes that mark the specific position of the ideology, hegemonic and religious characteristics of which have increased substantially in Turkey in 2000s, are articulated into the narration.

Pnömoniye sebep olan ciddi akut solunum yolu sendromu koronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) ilk olarak 2019 yılının Aralık ayındaÇin’in Wuhan şehrinde saptanmıştır. Enfeksiyonun nedeni koronavirus ailesinden SARS-CoV-2 virüsüdür ve ilk kez 2019yılında keşfedildiği için koro-navirus hastalığı 19 yani COVID-19 olarak isimledirilmiştir. Virüsün hücreyle etkileşmek içinkullandığı reseptörler tip I ve tip II alveolar epitel hücreleri, ince bağırsaktaki enterositler, kalp, böbrekler ve testisler gibipek çok organ sisteminde ifadelenmektedir. Bu nedenle COVID-19 birden fazla sistemi etkilemektedir. Biz bu derlememizdeCOVID-19 ve infertilite ilişkisini gözden geçirdik. Hem virüsün kendisinin hem de pandemi sürecinin infertiliteye etkisiüzerinde durulmuştur. COVID-19’un; erkek ve kadın üreme sistemi üzerine etkilerine, tedavide kullanılan ilaçların infertiliteile ilişkisine, endometriosis ve polikistik over sendromu (PCOS) gibi özel durumlarla olan ilişkisine, pandemi dönemindetüp bebek (IVF) laboratuvarlarının durumuna ve halihazırda devam eden infertilite tedavilerinin akıbetine, psikolojikboyutuna ve infertilite hastalarının psikolojik durumu üzerindeki etkisine değinilmiştir. Hastalığın daha yeni olması veyapılan çalışmaların kısıtlılığı bilgilerimizi sınırlandırmaktadır. Kesin kanıtlanmış verilerin bulunmaması ve çalışmalarınuzun dönem sonuçlarının bilinmemesi karşılaşılan en önemli zorluklardır. Bu nedenle bu konu ile ilgili olan bilgilerimizinartması için daha fazla çalışma yapılması gerekmektedir, Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which causes pneumonia, was first detected in Wuhan,China in December 2019. The cause of the infection is the SARS-CoV-2 virus from the coronavirus family, and since it wasfirst discovered in 2019, it was named as coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19). The receptors used by the virus to interactwith the cell are expressed in many organ systems such as type I and type II alveolar epitheli-al cells, enterocytes inthe small intestine, heart, kidneys and testicles. Therefore, COVID-19 affects more than one system. In this review, wereviewed the relationship between COVID-19 and infertility. The effect of both the virus itself and the pandemic processon infertility has been emphasized. COVID-19; the effects on the male and female reproductive system, the relationshipbetween drugs used in treatment with infertility, their relationship with special conditions such as endometriosis andpolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the status of in vitro fertilization (IVF) laboratories during the pandemic period, andthe outcome of the on-going infertility treatments, its psychological dimension and its effect on the psychological statusof infertility patients are mentioned. The fact that the disease is newer and the limited number of studies are limitingour knowledge. Lack of proven data and long-term results of the studies are the most important difficulties encountered.Therefore, more studies are needed to increase our knowledge on this subject.
