Öğe Adults assessments about urban life charesteristics in an eastern city of Turkey(Scibulcom Ltd., 2019) Firinci B.; Mete B.; Pehlivan E.This study was conducted to evaluate the usability and livability of urban areas by the individuals who are at and above the age of 50 living in the city of Malatya which is located in the eastern region of Turkey in terms of housing, outdoor and transportation; and to examine the relevant socio-demographic properties. The questionnaire form, which questioned the sociodemographic properties, and the usability of house, transportation and outdoors, consisted of 41 questions. As a result, it was observed that most of the male individual who were above the age of 50 lived in houses that were in adequate size, and the majority of them owned their houses. It was observed that those who lived in rural areas had more heating problems and experienced less security and environmental problems. When physical disability is considered in old age period, it was observed that half of the participants lived in houses or flats that did not have elevators. It was determined that the comfort of public transport was low. The fact that social gender inequality continued at further age was also determined as another finding that has to be emphasised. © 2019, Scibulcom Ltd.

The purpose of the present study was to examine the behaviours and the variables that affect these behaviours of doctor candidates, which represent an important profession in the world and in our country in this respect. The study was designed in cross-sectional fashion and was conducted in December 2017 with medicine faculty students. The dependent variables of the study were EF scores and the scores of the EF sub-components like food, house, travel, and other, and the carbon footprint (CF) score; and the independent variables were age, gender. EF score median (min-max) value of the study group was computed as 2.90 (1.78–7.09) kha, and the CF score median (min-max) value was computed as 11.69 (5.99–40.19) t. The travel component median (min-max) value was 0.93 (0.06–4.82) kha. The highest contribution to the EF was made by the transportation sub-component. In the light of the data of the present study, it was concluded that the medicine faculty students had information on the EF concept. This information must be increased with training that will be provided in the future. © 2018, Scibulcom Ltd.

The aim of this study is to determine the behavior of young adults aged between 18-40 in Malatya province center for water consumption and to determine the factors affecting these behaviors. Methods: Our study is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in Malatya province center in December 2016. According to our pilot study results, the minimum number of samples to be achieved is 980.A questionnaire was applied to 1208 people. In the factor questioning section of the questionnaire, questions about the socio demographic characteristics and some properties related to water consumption were used; in the phenomenon inquiry part of the questionnaire, the Water Consumption Behavior Scale consisting of 16 items was used. In the analysis of the data; Mann Whitney-U and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used. p < 0,05 was accepted as significant in all evaluations. Results: As 1208 people participated in our study. When the participants' total scores on the water consumption behavior scale are examined in terms of various socio-demographic characteristics, the mean total score of women is 49.3±10.58, and that of males is 47.92±11.21(p=0.026).There is no difference between the mean scores in terms of daily water consumption (p=0.051). There is a difference between mean scores as to whether there will be a water shortage in the future (p=0.034).Those who do regular sporting activities and, who consume bottled water have a higher and more significant score. Conclusion: In this study, women exhibit more positive behaviours than men in terms of water consumption. As the amount of daily drinking water consumption increases, scores from the scale increase. It has also been found that regular sporting activities make a positive contribution to the behavior of water consumption. It has been determined that the idea of having water scarcity in the future contributes positively to water consumption awareness and behavior.It may be advisable to educate young people on freshwater resources and water consumption in these topics in educational institutions.Öğe Investigation of drinking water consumption behavior of individuals over 15 years old living in Akçadağ district of Malatya(Refik Saydam National Public Health Agency (RSNPHA), 2020) Özyazgan-Tokay A.A.; Deniz S.; Pehlivan E.Objective: In this study, it is aimed to examine the water used by individuals, water consumption, water consumption behaviors and the factors affecting them in Akçadağ district of Malatya province. Methods: In August, a 4-part questionnaire consisting of sociodemographic and drinking water information form, water and fluid consumption frequency form and a questionnaire containing water consumption scale of behavior was applied to 303 individuals over 15 years of old who applied to family health centers in Akçadağ district. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 statistical software. Mann Whitney-U and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used for the analysis of the data. In all evaluation, the p-value of less than 0.05 considered significant. Results: 49.8% of the participants were male and 64.4% were married. The median daily water consumption of the individuals was 2000 mL (320 mL-1000 mL) and the median daily liquid consumption was 3300 mL (718 mL-17001 mL). There was no significant difference between age groups, marital status and education level and daily water, other fluid and total fluid consumption of participants. 48.8% of individuals stated that they save water and the most important reason for this is the high water bill. Water consumption behaviors of individuals are moderate. In our study, there was no significant difference between gender, place of residence and number of family members and total scale score and subscale scores. Total scale score and subscale scores of the married individuals and those who stated that they did any work at home to reduce the use of water were significantly higher than the single individuals. Water and fluid consumption of individuals are at good levels. Conclusion: When the most important factors in saving water are examined, the high water bills were noteworthy. In order to ensure correct water consumption, the society should be informed, the necessary sensitivity should be performed to behavioral change and measures should be taken. © 2020.

PATIENTS AND METHODS: The axial lengths of affected and fellow eyes of 19 patients with CRVO and 27 with BRVO and of their controls were measured with A-scan ultrasonography. The control group consisted of 17 individuals for CRVO and 25 for BRVO matched in age, sex and the prevalence of hypertension and diabetes in patient groups. The results of measurements in affected, unaffected and control eyes were compared. RESULTS: The mean axial length was different among the affected and unaffected eyes in patients with CRVO and their controls (P < .05). The affected eyes had significantly shorter axial length compared to the fellow and control eyes (P < .01 and P < .01, respectively). In the BRVO group, the mean axial length did not differ among affected, unaffected and control eyes (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: Our study demonstrates a significantly shorter axial length in eyes with CRVO and not significantly shorter axial length in those with BRVO. The shorter axial length could be an additional risk factor in the pathogenesis of CRVO.
