Oncological surgical outcomes for colorectal cancer surgery with loco-regional anesthesia: A feasibility study.

Objectives: To evaluate the pathological outcomes of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients who were unsuitable for general anesthesia and underwent regional anesthesia in terms of their suitability for oncological surgery.

Methods: A total of 53 patients who underwent mesocolicormesorectal surgery under regional anesthesia at Ankara Bilkent City Hospital, Ankara, Turkey, between May 2019 and May 2023 were retrospectively examined. The negative margins of the proximal, distal, and circumferential margins of specimens, as well as the number of lymph nodes removed, were analyzed.

Retrospective Evaluation of Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Surgery after the February 6, 2023 Earthquake in Turkey.

Throughout human history, numerous natural disasters, particularly earthquakes, have caused significant destruction to civilizations. On February 6, 2023, 2 major earthquakes struck Turkey. The first occurred at 04:17 local time with a magnitude of 7.

Virtual Gram staining of label-free bacteria using dark-field microscopy and deep learning.

Gram staining has been a frequently used staining protocol in microbiology. It is vulnerable to staining artifacts due to, e.g.

Examining the Burnout of Audiologists in Türkiye: Relationships With Quality of Work Life and Psychological Well-Being.

Purpose: Although burnout among audiologists has been studied in various countries, there is no research yet that examines this issue in Türkiye, where working conditions and sociodemographic factors may differ from those in other countries. Considering the unique working conditions and sociodemographic factors, this study aimed to investigate the burnout levels of Turkish audiologists. Additionally, this study will explore the impact of various sociodemographic variables on burnout, work-related quality of life, and depression to gain a deeper understanding of the specific challenges faced by audiologists in Türkiye.

Virtual Staining of Label-Free Tissue in Imaging Mass Spectrometry.

Imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) is a powerful tool for untargeted, highly multiplexed molecular mapping of tissue in biomedical research. IMS offers a means of mapping the spatial distributions of molecular species in biological tissue with unparalleled chemical specificity and sensitivity. However, most IMS platforms are not able to achieve microscopy-level spatial resolution and lack cellular morphological contrast, necessitating subsequent histochemical staining, microscopic imaging and advanced image registration steps to enable molecular distributions to be linked to specific tissue features and cell types.
