Mononuclear phosphinite Iridium complexes based on ferrocene group have been prepared and characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The complexes were subjected to cyclic voltammetry studies in order to determine the energies of HOMO and LUMO levels and to estimate their electrochemical and some electronic properties. Organic complex-based memory substrates were immobilized using TiO-modified ITO electrodes, and the memory functions of phosphinite-based organic complexes were verified by chronoamperometry (CA) and open-circuit potential amperometry (OCPA).

Introduction And Objectives: To investigate female patients' post-COVID-19 voiding symptoms and to research how they relate to overactive bladder (OAB).

Patients: One hundred and forty patients aged 20-50 years who were hospitalised and discharged due to COVID-19 at Kartal Dr. Lütfi Kırdar City Hospital between 2021 and 2022 and 50 patients with a history of COVID-19 among two hundred female patients who presented to the urology outpatient clinic with symptoms related to OAB were retrospectively analysed.

Objective: This study aimed to determine the correlation between selected electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters (recorded at admission) and mortality in non-cardiac, non-COVID-19 intensive care unit (ICU) patients, and to determine the sensitivity and specificity of a novel admission ECG score (AD-ECG) for predicting mortality. Additionally, the sensitivity and specificity of the AD-ECG and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) scores for predicting ICU mortality were compared.

Patients And Methods: Clinical and laboratory data, and ECG parameters were compared between ICU survivors and non-survivors.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate how partial remission (PR) affects glycemic control in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) over time.
  • Researchers analyzed data from 189 pediatric patients, categorizing them by remission status and the duration of their PR.
  • Results indicated that patients experiencing PR had better glycemic control shortly after PR, with longer durations of PR leading to even greater improvements in key metrics like HbA levels, time in range, and reduced glycemic variability.
