    Relationship Between Motivational Orientations, Metacognitive Adaptations and Academic Successes of Doctorate Students
    (DEOMED PUBL, ISTANBUL, 2018-01-01) Gayef, Albena; Gulpinar, Mehmet Ali; Bakirci, Nadi; Yegen, Berrak C.
    Motivational orientations and metacognitive adaptations displayed in difficult situations are the two major factors that affect the academic success of students. The aim of this study is to examine relationship between motivational orientations, metacognitive adaptations and academic successes of doctorate students attending to Health Sciences Institute. In this study conducted on 139 students The Modified Archer's Health Professions Motivation Survey, The Positive Metacognitions and Positive Meta-Emotions Questionnaire and performance evaluation forms were used. In the study where metacognitive adaptation levels of doctorate students were found high, their self-confidence levels in extinguishing perseverative thoughts and emotions were found to be significantly different in comparison to their levels of goal orientations towards performance, academic alienation and their use of superficial learning strategies. Their self-confidence levels in interpreting own emotions as cues, restraining from immediate reaction and mind setting for problem solving, establishing flexible and feasible hierarchy of goals were also found to be significantly different in comparison to their levels of academic alienation, use of metacognitive learning strategies, and internal control (p<0.05). It was also observed that academic success of the students at course and thesis stages were found to be significantly different as compared to their level of metacognitive learning strategies, self-confidence levels for setting flexible/feasible hierarchy of goals (p<0.05).

    Plasma Concentrations of Isoniazid and Rifampin Are Decreased in Adult Pulmonary Tuberculosis Patients with Diabetes Mellitus
    (AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2013-01-01) Babalik, Aylin; Ulus, Ismail Hakki; Bakirci, Nadi; Kuyucu, Tulin; Arpag, Huseyin; Dagyildizi, Lale; Capaner, Esen
    Plasma isoniazid and rifampin concentrations, but not pyrazinamide and ethambutol concentrations, were decreased by about 50\% (P < 0.05) in diabetic pulmonary tuberculosis patients. The prevalences of subnormal plasma isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol concentrations were 49\% or 100\% (P < 0.01), 66\% or 100\% (P < 0.05), 30\% or 50\% (P = 0.198), and 32\% or 21\% (P = 0.742) in nondiabetic or diabetic tuberculosis patients, respectively. These data show that plasma concentrations of isoniazid and rifampin were greatly reduced in diabetic tuberculosis patients.

    Biomass smoke exposure as a serious health hazard for women
    (TURKISH ASSOC TUBERCULOSIS \& THORAX, 2013-01-01) Babalik, Aylin; Bakirci, Nadi; Taylan, Mahsuk; Bostan, Leyla; Kiziltas, Sule; Basbug, Yelda; Calisir, Haluk C.
    Introduction: Lung diseases caused by biomass exposure cause a significant health hazard particularly amongst women. The present study was designed to investigate biomass exposure in women suffering from lung disease. Materials and Methods: A total of 100 women {[} mean (SD) age: 55.13 (17.65) years] hospitalized for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, bronchiectasis, tuberculosis or interstitial lung disease were included in this study conducted between September 2008-March 2009 in three chest disease clinics at Sureyyapasa Chest Diseases and Chest Surgery Training and Research Hospital. Data collection on biomass exposure was based on application of hospital-based survey questionnaire including items on occupation, level of education, place of birth (location, region), exposure to biomass fuel fumes for heating and cooking purposes (animal dung, wood, charcoal, dried plant) and years of exposure with animal dung, wood, charcoal, dried plant. Results: COPD in 22\% patients, lung carcinoma in 12\%, bronchitis in 8\%, tuberculosis in 26\%, and interstitial lung disease in 17\% were the diagnosis for hospitalization. The most identified occupation was housewifery 86\%. Active, former and nonsmokers composed 6\%, 22\% and 72\% of the population. Birth place was village in 67\% patients while districts in 9\%. According to regional distribution, the most common place of birth was Central Anatolia region in (29\%). Exposure to biomass fuels was identified in all of patients including wood (92\%), animal dung (30\%), charcoal (23\%), and dry plant (23\%). Mean (SD) years of exposure was identified to be 52.6 (17.9) years for wood, 40.8 (17.9) years for animal dung, 48.1 (20.8) years for dry plant and 38.5 (21.4) years for charcoal. The most common type of biomass exposure was wood in village (97\%), city (79\%) and county (89\%). Conclusion: Findings indicating impact of biomass exposure in women seem to emphasize the need for analytic epidemiologic studies assessment measuring biomass exposure levels-particularly for women and young children.
