    (BILIMSEL TIP PUBLISHING HOUSE, 2016-01-01) Dabak, Gul; Senbaklavaci, Omer
    History of lung transplantation in the world can be traced back to the early years of the 20th century when experimental vascular anastomotic techniques were developed by Carrel and Guthrie, followed by transplantation of thoracic organs on animal models by Demikhov and finally it was James Hardy who did the first lung transplantation attempt on human. But it was not until the discovery of cyclosporine and development of better surgical techniques that success could be achieved in that field by the Toronto Lung Transplant Group led by Joel Cooper. Up to the present day, over 51.000 lung transplants were performed in the world at different centers. The start of lung transplantation in Turkey has been delayed for various reasons.

    This article studies the issue of population in Turkey during the Early Republican Period by assessing the meanings attributed to children and children's health. The article discusses the approach to public health, wherein pronatalist policies and citizenship education are intertwined, and deliberates the solutions produced for the health problems of the period by focusing on the case of tuberculosis. By examining articles physicians wrote in health propaganda journals of the period, this article discusses how the focus of public health practices transformed in the 20th century, the direction personal hygiene took towards an area of individual responsibility, and how modern medicine was transformed into an unlimited field of intervention.
