The Neoliberal Face of the 'Local Turn' in Governance of Refugees in Turkey: Participatory Action Research in Karacabey, Bursa.

Based on the findings of conducted in 2020 and 2021 in Karacabey, Bursa (Turkey), the article aims to offer a critical assessment of the current vocabulary that has become prevalent in Migration Studies such as 'local turn' and 'resilience'. In doing so, the article demonstrates the neoliberal logic of governance of migration and integration of migrants and refugees-a logic that is manifested by the Turkish central state in the form of delegating responsibilities to local actors without an attempt to financially strengthen them. Karacabey encounters various problems similar to many other rural and mountainous places in Europe such as depopulation, aging, emigration, deforestation, deinvestment, reduction of agricultural lands and production, and environmental problems.

Comparative performance analysis of 4 different anti-citrullinated protein assays in the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic performances of 2 recently developed assays, third-generation anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP3) and anti-mutated citrullinated vimentin (anti-MCV), in comparison to conventional second-generation anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP2) assay; and to assess a novel fully automated, random-access AxSYM anti-CCP assay for early diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Methods: A cohort of 176 patients was enrolled in our study; 93 were diagnosed as having RA. The non-RA group consisted of 83 patients including 38 with systemic lupus erythematosus, 17 with primary Sjögren's syndrome, 11 with osteoarthritis, and 17 healthy controls.
