Psychosocial interventions to improve outcomes among dialysis patients
(Wiley, 2018)
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) report high levels of emotional problems and poor compliance with treatment and quality of life. Nevertheless there are not many studies which examine the effectiveness of ...
Factors that influence attitude and enforcement of the smoke-free law in Turkey: a survey of hospitality venue owners and employees
(Bmj Publishing Group, 2017)
Introduction In 2009 Turkey extended the smoke-free legislation to hospitality venues. Compliance however remains low in some hospitality venues. We identified characteristics associated with knowledge of health effects ...
Corrected Panel-Reactive Antibody Positivity Rates for Hypersensitized Patients in Turkish Population With Calculated Panel-Reactive Antibody Software
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017)
however the rate was 86.2% using the cPRA. Discussion. cPRA shows the rate of the rejected donors according to all unacceptable antigens. The need for a list of unacceptable antigens in place of the PRA positivity rate is ...
Abortion services at hospitals in Istanbul
