Background: We aimed to examine the efficacy of intravenous vitamin C (IV-VC) in the treatment of hospitalized patients with moderate or severe COVID-19.
Method: We conducted a single-center and retrospective study including patients with COVID-19 diagnosis who were hospitalized. Patients were categorized into three groups as those who received low-dose (LDVC group, 2 g/day, n = 183) or high-dose IV-VC (HDVC group, 25 g/day, n = 41) and who did not receive IV-VC (control group, n = 46).
Objective: The study aimed to determine the relationship between academic teaching staff' mental health literacy levels and beliefs toward mental illness.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 357 academic teaching staff working at a state university in Turkey between July 2021 and February 2022.
Results: Significant predictors of academic teaching staff' beliefs toward mental illness were mental health literacy, department, receiving mental health literacy education, seeking psychiatric help before, having a family member with a mental disorder, willingness to work with someone with a mental disorder, experience with a student with a mental disorder in professional life, and thoughts that students with a mental disorder should continue education.
Aim: To determine (i) the relationship between basic psychological needs satisfaction (competence, relatedness and autonomy), career adaptability and career construction, (ii) the role of career adaptability in this relationship and (iii) the variables that predict career construction in nursing students.
Background: Career Construction Theory, which predicts that appropriate career behaviour, facilitated by individual characteristics, promotes a person's career outcomes, has not yet been tested in nursing students.
Design: Cross-sectional and correlational design.
Background: Various visual semi-quantitative staging systems based on high-resolution computed tomography are used to evaluate inflammatory rheumatologic disease-associated interstitial lung disease. We aimed in this retrospective study to evaluate whether tomographic fibrosis score, a new visual semi-quantitative staging system, was a predictor of mortality and the relationship between tomographic fibrosis score and respiratory function tests in patients with systemic sclerosis-associ- ated interstitial lung disease.
Methods: The patients who have been followed up at a single-center rheumatology clinic for the last 5 years and met the American College of Rheumatology / European League Against Rheumatism (ACR-EULAR) 2013 systemic sclerosis classification criteria were included in the study.
