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.

Music Perception and Music-Related Quality of Life in Adult Cochlear Implant Users: Exploring the Need for Music Rehabilitation.

Objectives: Cochlear implant (CI) users face difficulties in accurately perceiving basic musical elements such as pitch, melody, and timbre. Music significantly affects the quality of life (QoL) of CI users. Individually and culturally influenced music perception exceeds psychophysical measures in capturing the subjective music enjoyment of CI users.

Investigation of Video Ocular Counter-Roll Findings According to Head and Body Tilt Positions in Healthy Subjects.

Objectives: A vestibulo-ocular reflex called the ocular counter-roll can be used to assess how well the otolith organs are functioning. The video ocular counter-roll (vOCR) test is a recent addition to the videonystagmography test battery that allows for video recording and quantitative ocular counter-roll analysis. The purpose of this study is to investigate potential discrepancies in vOCR measurements obtained from a 30° lateral head tilt in the roll plane versus measurements obtained from a 30° tilt of the head and body.

Sound quality perception of cochlear implant recipients: low-frequency information and foreign-language effect.

Objective: This study aimed to adapt a method used in sound quality measurements named CI-MUSHRA (the multiple stimuli with hidden reference and anchor for cochlear implant users) to the Turkish language. The effect of low-frequency information and non-native musical stimuli on sound quality perception was investigated.

Design: Subjects completed the Turkish version of the MUSHRA test, called TR-MUSHRA, and the original CI-MUSHRA test.

Translation and validation of the music-related quality of life questionnaire for adults with cochlear implant in Turkish language.

Purpose: It is important to assess the impact of music on cochlear implant (CI) users' quality of life. The aim of this study was to adapt and validate the music-related quality of life questionnaire into the Turkish language for adult CI users.

Methods: 161 CI users and 162 normal-hearing adults were included in the study.

Lower prevalence of non-tumoral perfusion defects in left hepatic lobe during CT arterial portography with splenic artery injection.

Objective: To determine whether there is a difference in the prevalence of non-tumoral perfusion defects (NTPD) in left hepatic lobe during CT arterial portography (CTAP) through splenic (SA) and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) injection.

Methods And Patients: For the preoperative evaluation, 59 patients (20 females, 39 males) who either have colorectal carcinoma metastasis (n: 42) or hepatocellular carcinoma (n: 17) underwent CTAP examination. Patients were divided into two groups (SA and SMA) according to the injection artery.

Quantitative Doppler evaluation of the splenoportal venous system in various stages of cirrhosis: differences between right and left portal veins.

Purpose: The purpose of our study was to evaluate the relationship between the splenoportal hemodynamics in patients with cirrhosis and the stage of the disease.

Methods: Patients with cirrhosis were grouped according to modified Child-Pugh scoring into stages A, B, and C of cirrhosis. A control group of healthy volunteers was included.

Endovascular treatment of huge saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm in a young Behcet patient: mid-term result.

BACKGROUND: Abdominal aortic aneurysm formation is among the arterial complications of Behcet's disease. Weakness and fragility of aortic walls leads to the development of arterial complications like pseudoaneurysms. CASE PRESENTATION: A case of huge saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm in a young Behcet patient who was successfully treated with endovascular stent graft placement is reported, diagnostic and interventional procedures are discussed, and mid-term follow-up results are presented.
