In this study, we evaluated the biomass yield, physico-chemical characteristics, nutrient composition, and feeding value of oat (Avena sativa) grown without irrigation ensiled with or without supplemental inoculant following different wilting durations. Oat forage at early dough stage (79 days after sowing) were harvested to assess the biomass yield, nutrient contents, and mineral composition. Oats were ensiled with or without the addition of inoculant and different wilting durations (0, 24, and 48 h) in 3 × 2 factorial arrangement.

Patients And Methods: This retrospective, cross-sectional study included a total of 130 pediatric FMF patients (67 males, 63 females; mean age: 12.4±3.
Objectives: Behcet Disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis, first described with a triad of oral aphthous ulcers, genital ulcers, and uveitis. The authors aimed to share the clinical properties and utilities of three distinct classification criteria for BD in this study.
Methods: This case-control study was conducted in pediatric BD patients, diagnosed between January 2012 and July 2019.
Background: Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is characterized by defective microbial killing due to mutations affecting subunits of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase complex. Definitive genetic identification of disease subtypes may be delayed or not readily available.
Objective: Sought to investigate the role of intracellular staining of NADPH oxidase enzyme subunits in predicting the respective genetic defects in patients with CGD and carriers.
Background: A better understanding of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator biology has led to the development of modulator drugs such as ivacaftor, lumacaftor-ivacaftor, tezacaftor-ivacaftor, and elexacaftor-tezacaftor-ivacaftor. This cross-sectional study evaluated cystic fibrosis (CF) patients eligible for modulator drugs.
Methods: Data for age and genetic mutations from the Cystic Fibrosis Registry of Turkey collected in 2018 were used to find out the number of patients who are eligible for modulator therapy.

In this work, the experimental and theoretical vibrational spectra of 2-chloro-4-methylaniline (2Cl4MA, C(7)H(8)NCl) were studied. FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of 2Cl4MA in the liquid phase have been recorded in the region 4000-400cm(-1) and 3500-50cm(-1), respectively. The structural and spectroscopic data of the molecule in the ground state have been calculated by using Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional method (B3LYP) with the 6-31G(d), 6-31G(d,p), 6-31+G(d,p), 6-31++G(d,p) and 6-311G(d), 6-311G(d,p), 6-311+G(d,p), 6-311++G(d,p) basis sets.
