Vertebral osteomyelitis after cardiac surgery
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2003)
Background. Mediastinitis after open-heart surgery is a serious complication that has a decreasing incidence but still a significantly high mortality rate. Back pain may develop during the course of treatment for mediastinitis ...
Repair of recurrent patent ductus arteriosus in an adult with cardiopulmonary bypass
(Blackwell Futura Publishing Inc, 2003)
Recurrence of ductal patency is a rarely encountered complication in surgical repair of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA). An adult patient with ductal recurrency underwent closure of ductus by using cardiopulmonary bypass ...
A Radiofrequency modified maze and valve procedure through a port-access approach
(Forum Multimedia Publishing LLC., 2003)
Background: The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of the irrigated radiofrequency modified maze procedure through a port-access approach during mitral valve surgery. Methods: Forty-three ...
Spontaneous ureteral rupture: Is immediate surgical intervention always necessary? Presentation of four cases and review of the literature
(Mary Ann Liebert Inc Publ, 2002)
Purpose: We report our experience with spontaneous ureteral rupture (SUR) managed conservatively. Case Reports: Data on three men and one woman 53 to 89 years old (mean age 73) with SUR were retrospectively evaluated. The ...
Effect of low-dose methyl prednisolone on serum cytokine levels following extracorporeal circulation
(Arnold Hodder Headline Plc., 1999)
The systemic inflammatory response to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with increased production of cytokines. This systemic inflammatory response characterized by the activation of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and ...
The European Union's Immigration Policy: Managing Migration in Turkey and Morocco

Migration has been an important reason for externalization of the EU’s policies towards non- member third countries. Throughout the 2000s, the European Union has advanced its efforts for externalization of its immigration ...
Phase transitions between different spin-glass phases and between different chaoses in quenched random chiral systems
(Amer Physical Soc., 2017)
The left-right chiral and ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic double-spin-glass clock model with the crucially even number of states q = 4 and in three dimensions d = 3 has been studied by renormalization-group theory. We find ...
Effects of GNP addition on optical properties and band gap energies of PMMA films
(Wiley, 2019)
In this study the effects of graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) doping on the optical parameters (absorption coefficient alpha and extinction coefficient k) and the optical transition energies (optical band gap and Urbach energies) ...
Energy in Turkey and Russia's Roller-Coaster Relationship
